Natalie fell silent.
At this moment, she sat quietly in place, and even Clyde couldn't discern what was going on in her mind.
The man pulled a wicker chair and sat beside her.
"Things in Simeria are chaotic right now."
"And?" Natalie responded indifferently.
"When you go back this time, it can't be like last time."
There was a hint of exasperation in Clyde's tone, and Natalie fell silent.
Last time?
Was he referring to her entanglement with Malcolm last time? It had indeed been a cause for concern in the Jarvis family.
Stephen had never wanted to get involved with the Entes family, so they definitely wouldn't want Natalie to be entangled with them.
And with Natalie's current resentment towards Irwin and Cedric, nobody knew what she might do in such circumstances.
That was the most worrying aspect.
"Alright, I understand what you mean, Cly," Natalie said gently.
Her words relieved Clyde.
"It's good that you understand. Dad has been worried about you, and everyone is waiting for you to return."
"..."
Everyone was waiting for her?
At this moment, Natalie felt a pang of discomfort in her heart. Ultimately, she had become the most worrying child in the family.
It was something she least wanted to happen, but it was staring her in the face now.
She took a deep breath and sighed. "I've let everyone down!"
As she said this, the suffocating feeling in her chest intensified.
"You haven't done anything wrong," Clyde reassured her.
Had she not done anything wrong?
In the midst of all the twists and turns between the three of them, everything had become unclear.
Who was the one truly at fault?
Was it Irwin's fault for plotting everything?
But humans... could calculate actions, not hearts or emotions!
Or was Cedric at fault?
He certainly was wrong in some aspects!
"Nat."
"Yes?"
"Listen to me... You should let it go!"
At this moment, Clyde looked at how lonely Natalie seemed, and his tone was tinged with resignation.
Did she hate them?
Naturally, she did!
Whatever Cedric or Irwin had done in her life was unforgivable. However, carrying hatred was too heavy for a person! Those who harbored hatred were constantly enduring a hellish torment.
Clyde had experienced such feelings. He didn't know how he eventually emerged from such heaviness.
And it was precisely because of this that he didn't want Natalie to sink into that pain.
Hating someone was too painful. In the process of hating, one was repeatedly hurt.
Fortunately, it was Clyde who said these words at this moment.
If it were Irwin and Cedric... one can only imagine how Natalie would react to them in such an ironic situation!
Clyde was also the only person who would say these words to Natalie now.
However, Natalie's lips curved into a smile. "I've tried it. It's useless!"
"Nat..."
"Cly, you don't understand!"
Understand what?
He didn't understand how much emotion she had invested in Cedric, nor did he know what it was like when Irwin saved her from danger time and time again.
