Inside the study, the atmosphere was anything but relaxed. Instead, it was heavy with tension as father and son exchanged glances.
Stephen sighed. "Have you gathered all the information?"
"Yes," replied Clyde.
"The Entes family..."
Each word seemed to be uttered through gritted teeth. The depths of the Entes family were notoriously murky, and now Stephen likely understood why Irwin insisted on marrying Natalie in Yuloria before bringing her back to Simeria.
In truth, they were all well aware.
During this period of turmoil within the Entes family, the Jarvis family wouldn't have found peace if it weren't for Cedric and Irwin by Natalie's side.
With things escalating within the Entes family, it had reached a point where the Stewart family was inevitably involved.
"Go to Yonwood City," Stephen instructed Clyde after a moment of thought.
"Yonwood?" Clyde furrowed his brows.
"Give Nat a heads-up. Things are crucial for her right now."
Indeed, he was a man who understood that when a woman was consumed by hatred, she was capable of anything. And Natalie's feelings toward Irwin and Cedric were far beyond mere hatred.
In such times, she might resort to anything.
Blair was her bottom line. With Blair in the picture, this shattered Natalie's understanding of her feelings for Cedric.
In the midst of such a situation, every thought of her previous entanglement with Malcolm left Stephen endlessly worried.
"Alright, I got it." Clyde nodded.
Natalie was truly a headache at the moment.
The extent of her hatred towards Cedric was evident from the situation in Wexford.
"Regardless, we cannot let her get involved with the Entes family this time," Stephen said with deep conviction.
After all, he had suffered losses due to the Entes family in the past. Over the years, although he resided in Simeria, he kept himself detached from whatever happened within the Eintes family.
Even if he had a solid friendship with them, sometimes... family was more valuable than any friendship.
Once a person didn't have a family anymore, there was nothing else to consider.
Now, things were different.
With a family, there were more things to consider when doing anything.
"Alright, I understand," Clyde nodded, understanding Stephen's implication.
The current turmoil of the Eintes family was unsettling, and nobody could see clearly amidst the chaos.
The Stewart family was involved due to Irene, and no one was uncertain who would eventually lead the household amidst the upheaval.
So, in such a situation, it was best for anyone not to wade into that muddy water.

Clyde emerged from the study. When he walked downstairs, he caught sight of Heather telling Luna a story...!
Instantly, he understood why Stephen remained aloof from all situations and never got involved.
"Are you going out?" Heather asked Clyde, noticing that he was about to leave.
Clyde nodded. "Yeah."
"Drink less," Heather advised.
In her mind, men like him who went out at this time were bound to socialize. And where there was socializing, there was bound to be drinking.
At the sound of her advice, a flicker passed through Clyde's eyes.
Undoubtedly...!
Since he was a child, he had never known such warmth. There had only ever been endless struggles...!
Apart from struggling to survive, he had no other choice.
