Chapter 190 Isaac’s Return

The restaurant where Natalie met Irwin for lunch was the same one they had gone to dinner before.

Irwin expertly cut the steak and placed it in front of Natalie.

There was a gentle smile on her lips as she said, “Thank you.”

Irwin raised the red wine in front of him and took a sip. Natalie pulled out a folder and handed it to Irwin.

“Take a look later when you can.”

“No rush,” Irwin replied.

Natalie nodded.

Irwin glanced at her and asked, “What’s the deal between you and Cedric now?”

Natalie’s heart skipped a beat. When she looked at Irwin, there was a hard glint in her eyes.

Clearly, she doesn’t appreciate Irwin mentioning Cedric.

Irwin’s gaze was sharp as he met Natalie’s eyes. Just as she struggled to respond to his question, Irwin

said, “You don’t have to hide it from me. His actions…”

Irwin trailed off, but Natalie didn’t need him to finish his sentence to understand. Her face turned a little

pale as she looked at Irwin.

Did he know everything?!

Without waiting for her to say anything, Irwin continued, “Your uncle hasn’t encountered such a

situation in many years, so he didn’t react immediately.

Natalie was silent.

“But once he finds out, what do you think things between him and Cedric will be like?”

What would it be like?

Because of the incident at the airport, Stephen had taken action against Johnson Enterprise.

If he discovered that the trouble at Regal Horizons International’s headquarters was Cedric’s doing. It

would be disastrous!

She has been dealing with Cedric during this time precisely to avoid such a thing from happening!

Natalie hesitated as she looked at Irwin. Meanwhile, the man smiled and said, “You don’t know how to

explain this, huh?”

… Natalie began.

“Natalie, it’s not as simple as him threatening you, right?” Irwin interrupted her and redirected the

conversation.

Natalie’s expression was already unpleasant, and it turned cold at his words. “Are you going to say I’m

wasting my time, just like my uncle?”

Yes, that was what Stephen meant.

Looking into Christina and Isabella’s actions of time. Trying to show their true colors to the

world was also the same.

Previously, she might have listened to Stephen because she thought everything would end with her

city.

But this time, Cedric had made her realize things were not that simple.

This applied to not only him, but Christina and Isabella as

well.

Especially Isabella.

She never intended to let go. Although things seemed calm during this time, they weren’t.

Originally, Christina was someone she could ignore.

But she… decided to team up with Isabella again. By doing that, Natalie couldn’t ignore her and was

forced to deal with everything that was happening.

“No. I agree with what you plan on doing to Christina and Isabella. But I disagree about you getting

Involved with Cedric. That’s my personal bias.”

The Implication behind Irwin’s words was so obvious!

Natalie’s heart tightened at his words!

She should refuse him.

But then Irwin placed his hand on hers, and the warmth made her heart waver.

She met his gaze, and Irwin said, “There are only two reasons why you wouldn’t tell your uncle

anything.

It’s either because you’re kind–hearted and don’t want to see a catastrophic scene, or you still have

hopes

“No!

Natalie denied the second option without a second thought.

Hope for Cedric?

No, she didn’t have any.

She hadn’t had any for that man since the moment she opened her eyes.

“In that case, tell your uncle, hmm?” Irwin said.

Natalie remained silent.

“You’re not alone now.”

Irwin had been caught off guard this time. He hadn’t expected Cedric to pull such a trick. If Irwin had

known earlier, Cedric would never have had the chance to do anything!

Did Cedric think he would have succeeded if Irwin had known? What a joke!

Natalie clenched her fist tightly.

“It’s not what you think at all!”

In Natalie’s eyes, she hasn’t even seen clearly the man who has been by her side for these years.

Others

knew even less about the depths of his character.

She was worried.

If Cedric could so easily cause trouble for Irwin and Regal Horizons International now, who knew what

he

would do when he was truly angered?

“Do you not trust me, or do you not trust your uncle, hmm?”

Natalie felt intimidated by Irwin’s attitude at this moment.

She took a deep breath and said nothing.

Looking at her furrowed brows, Irwin’s gentle fingers slowly moved up to press against them. Natalie

Instinctively tried to avoid it, but Irwin had also reached out to hold the back of her head with his other

His palm was strong, powerful, and warm.

Tirwin, don’t do this,” she protested.

“You shouldn’t be sad or worried, you know?”

Irwin’s gentle yet firm gaze touched Natalie’s heart.

She originally intended to refuse him!

eyes.

In the seven years of their relationship, Cedric had always been her pillar of support. She thought this

reliance would last a lifetime.

However, the first time she mentioned her thoughts about Christina after their marriage, he had

mountain she could lean on at any time, except when it came to Christina.

Later, Isabella came along, and he was as good as dead in Natalie’s world. He allowed her to face the

despair alone and never extended a helping hand or offered redemption.

But now…!!

The warmth in Irwin’s palm and the gentleness transmitted through his fingertips gave her a misplaced

illusion of reliance.

She was afraid of feeling this way because it could be fatal once she succumbed to it!

“Do you want to cry?”

Irwin’s tone softened further when he saw the unshed tears in the woman’s eyes.

In that instant, Natalie snapped back to reality and moved away from the man.

“Don’t do this,” she implored.

“Natalie, you’re in a new phase of life now. Why let yourself be held back by old matters? Or do you

really

find it hard to let go?

1 don’t!”

She truly didn’t

If she still had any fantasies about Cedric, she would have asserted her position as Mrs. Johnson from

the very beginning.

She would have torn Christina and Isabella apart regardless of the consequences.

But she dared to let go of a ten–year relationship because she didn’t care anymore.

“Alright, if you say so. Let’s eat!”

At this moment, Irwin understood what was on Natalie’s mind.

Her heart…!

It wasn’t only filled with hatred, but it was also burdened by obsession. If she didn’t resolve those

issues,

she couldn’t move on.

The so–called fear of emotions was, in fact, the lingering obsession in her heart that hadn’t been

completely swept away. It was also the reason she was unsure of how to start anew.

As Irwin suspected, Natalie was well aware that there would be more trouble as Christina and Isabella

had joined forces.

Regardless of whether Cedric was by her side or not, those two scheming individuals wouldn’t let her

off.

That was why she had to deal with them. Without resolving those issues, she wouldn’t find peace. It

wasn’t about being willing or unwilling; it was about clearing the obstacles in her path.
