Natalie raised an eyebrow in confusion.
Already entangled in intricate relationships, Irwin's revelations only deepened her confusion. Before he could finish, Natalie felt that perhaps taking Bianca back to Entes Manor was merely a diversionary tactic.
"What's their relationship?" Natalie admitted to being clueless about these details when Zane was by her side.
Irwin smiled. The depth of his smile hinted at underlying conflicts, much like between him and Cedric.
The photograph in Stephen's study revealed an intimate relationship between Cedric and Irwin, a relationship that seemed to have been more than ordinary.
However, no one knew why their relationship had deteriorated!
As for Zane…
He had once been an extraordinarily capable assistant by her side, but the true depths of his hidden agenda remained unknown.
Perhaps the truth may be unbelievable.
Sipping his wine elegantly, Irwin shared, "Yvette and Zane met and fell in love during their university days. However, Yvette eventually married Alto."
Natalie was momentarily stunned.
That was... so dramatic!
"Why?" she continued, puzzled.
Given their shared history and affection, why would she choose someone else? After all, Zane and Alto were both from the Entes family!
Irwin responded, "I'm unsure of the specifics between the Stewart family and Lord Alto, but Yvette did marry him."
Natalie took a deep breath, trying to process the complicated relationship she was learning about.
"So, even though Yvette is with Alto, she still harbors feelings for Zane?"
If that was the case...
What was going on?!
Irwin chuckled at her candidness.
"Why are you laughing?" Natalie asked.
"In recent years, Yvette finds herself in a precarious position. Alto doesn't hold affection for her. In the Entes family, a woman who can't earn her husband's love holds no significant status," Irwin commented nonchalantly.
Yet, to Natalie, each word seemed to echo with tragedy upon tragedy.
However, she believed Bianca wouldn't succumb to such fate. Bianca's calculated moves, particularly in her relationship with Zane, were a testament to her rationality.
Her strategic alliance with Zane against Malcolm meant she remained unaffected by the traditional power dynamics.
"However," Irwin continued, "the Stewart family's intentions towards her remain exploitative. Without genuine affection, her position beside Alto isn't enviable."
In such circumstances, it wouldn't be surprising if she still harbored feelings for her first love.
"So, what's the current situation?" Natalie probed.
"There are rumors that Zane and Yvette have a secret relationship," Irwin revealed.
Natalie's grip on her teacup tightened as she paused momentarily in shock.
"Are you suggesting that he's..."
