Chapter 346 When Did It Start
Irwin mentioned that Malcolm wanted to establish a connection with the Jarvis family to gain complete
control over the Entes family.
Yet now, one of his own people was claiming Natalie would be his future wife?!
To be blunt, these people were indeed two sides of the same coin to Natalie!
“Sis, are you leaving now?”
Despite Natalie’s ever–changing expression, Roland’s tone remained serious and firm.
Natalie asked, “Can I talk to Irwin?”
“Of course you can!” Roland took out his phone, dialed Irwin’s number, and handed it to Natalie.
The phone screen flashed with Irwin’s name as she waited for the call to connect. Soon, a warm voice
came through.
“Nat.”
“Irv, I don’t know what I should say about you now.”
Irwin had lured Stephen to Wexford, making the already chaotic situation even messier. He had also done
this in an attempt to control Cedric.
And now, Irwin even wanted her to go to Wexford.
Why?
Obviously, it was to prevent her alliance with Malcolm and thereby limit Malcolm’s control over Simeria.
Irwin seemed to be grabbing onto all the advantages he could!
‘Be good and come to Wexford first, okay? I’ll be waiting for you here,” Irwin said from the other end of
the line, his tone still gentle even at this juncture.
Natalie remained silent.
Unavoidably, she had to admit that even when letting go of all pretenses, Irwin managed to do it so.
seamlessly.
In this world, Inwin was perhaps the only person who could pull it off!
He wanted to claim all the benefits for himself.
But would Natalie give in to him? Hah!
Natalie could already guess what Stephen’s stance against these people was.
Since everyone had nothing to hide, why not just stop hiding everything?
“Although Malcolm is using me, he has given me quite a few benefits in this situation.”
“What benefits can he give you?” Irwin asked indifferently.
“The Entes family controls half of Simeria, right? What remarkable benefits do you think he can offer me
Natalie shot back in the same indifferent tone.
As soon as she finished speaking, the air became silent in an instant. Roland was sitting opposite Natalie,
and the look in his eyes intensified as he stared at her.
Before Irwin could speak, Natalie continued, “When did it start?”
“What?”
“It started from the time you approached me in Verde City, right?”
Irwin remained silent.
That was right!
Natalie analyzed that Irwin’s manipulation of her started in Verde City. Although she didn’t know the exact grievances between Irwin and Cedric, she knew they both had been in Wexford.
It also didn’t take a genius to figure out that Irwin and Cedric’s relationship wasn’t any better than Stephen
and Malcolm in Simeria.
Before the man on the phone could respond, Natalie’s tone grew colder and more serious, “Irv, did you
think you could manipulate me further than this?”
Without a doubt, Irwin was trying to influence her into going to Wexford. That was why he had sent
Roland to her in an attempt to make her obey forcefully.
Her uncle and Cedric were both in Wexford, but Irwin was the one who first wanted to drag her into the
mess there.
However, nothing was surprising about his current actions if he had approached her initially with a
premeditated scheme..
Inwin may look like a respectable gentleman on the surface, but he was downright despicable at his core!
After ending the call with Irwin, Natalie looked at Roland across the table. Her eyes were deep and icy.
Although there was no hysteria in the conversation just now, it made it clear that none of them were keeping up the act anymore.
“Roland.”
“Yes, sis!”
“I haven’t married Irwin, so there’s no need for you to bind me to him like this.”
“Then who would you like to be bound to? Lord Malcolm?”
Natalie’s expression turned colder, Sitting on the sofa, she looked petite but exuded an air of chilliness.
“You’ve seen it too. Now that we’ve all stopped pretending, you won’t get away without consequences for
pushing my limits!” Natalie said harshly.
Roland remained silent.
Looking at the petite woman before him, it was hard to imagine that she had once been an oppressed daughter–in–law in the Johnson family.
“If Malcolm catches Bianca, I’ll tear you to pieces with my bare hands!”
Roland froze at her words. He had used Bianca to blackmail Natalie emotionally, but now he had to go to great lengths to protect Bianca’s whereabouts!
At this point, it didn’t matter in what state Bianca was brought back. If she was caught, Natalie would undoubtedly hold him responsible.
Without waiting for Roland to speak, Natalie continued, “Irwin has gone to Wexford. In the years he has been in Simeria, Maple Peak has been the most important thing for him, right?”
“What are you getting at, Sis?”
Although Natalie was displeased with how Roland addressed her, she didn’t want to dwell on it now.
Casually stroking her beautifully manicured nails, her tone was nonchalant as she replied, “Maple Peak has been safeguarding half of the documents for Simeria, and the other half is in the hands of the Entes
family. The Entes family controls half of Simeria, right? In their position, don’t you think they’ve been trying
to get the other half of the documents from Irwin over the years?”
