The card!
Zane was referring to one she lost earlier.
Whether it was for kidnapping Isabella or the incident involving Isaac’s fiancée, all the transfer records were from that card.
Christina seemed to be thoroughly prepared to tarnish her reputation, leaving Natalie with no plausible defense.
Now, Zane claimed to have found the information.
“Send it to me.”
“It’s already in your email.”
“Good.”
Natalie ended the call and opened her email, her chest heaving in anxiety.
Irwin asked, “What’s wrong?”

Christina probably didn’t anticipate that Stephen’s people could unveil past events, no matter how long. ago they occurred.
If only Natalie had entrusted everything to Stephen’s team from the beginning rather than hiring a private detective. This would have been uncovered much sooner.
But at that time, she feared that Stephen would worry if he knew too much.
Now, it was different. With everything exposed, what she needed was the fastest resolution!
Irwin handed the phone back to her. Natalie took it and was about to call Cedric when suddenly…

A headline notification popped up on her phone: [High–Value Jewelry Materials Cost Only & Few Bucks?
Though she initially wanted to ignore this dull news, the words caught her attention. When she saw the words “Sylvan Gems,” her heart skipped a beat.
Just as she clicked on it, Zane called again.
“Hello?”
“Ms. Walker, I’m afraid you need to return to the company as soon as possible!” Zane said.
It was now clear that the headline was targeting Sylvan Gems!
Natalie closed her eyes. Her tone was unstable as she replied, “I got it. I’m coming right now!”
After hanging up the phone, her vision swam.
Irwin hadn’t looked at his phone. Seeing the sudden change in Natalie, he was puzzled and asked, “Did something happen?”
Natalie looked at Irwin. She wanted to say something, but the only thing that came out of her mouth was,” Drop me off at Sylvan Gems!”
Something big had happened!

But now… it was about the materials!

Natalie hesitated.
Yes. Although there was still no evidence, given the circumstances, it was undoubtedly related to Cedric.

This time, Natalie didn’t conceal it as she did before. Things had reached a point where there was no need to hide it from her uncle.
It would be better if Stephen knew!
After she said that, Stephen’s breathing became heavier.
“Is he insane?”
“Uncle.”
“Come back to Simeria immediately.”
“What about Sylvan Gems?”
“I’ll have someone handle it,” Stephen said directly.
As a man, he understood that Cedric. At this moment, Cedric was like a madman. Being in his presence, Natalie was at risk of being torn apart.
Although everyone was angry about the situation, Stephen’s first reaction was to have Natalie leave Simeria immediately. As for settling the score with Cedric, there would be plenty of time for it later.
“Should I still go to Sylvan Gems now?” Natalie asked.
“Go and settle what you need to hand over. Once you’re done, take the earliest flight back tomorrow. morning,” Stephen instructed.
