A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 698

Since Robert's death, who in Simeria could truly stay out of its affairs?

Although the Jarvis family had been relatively quiet lately, Natalie realized how terrifying the lurking dangers truly were after encountering Austin.

When Natalie entered the study, Stephen looked visibly relieved at her return.

"You should stay quiet at home for the next few days and avoid going to the studio," he said.

"Okay." Natalie obediently nodded.

Clearly, Stephen had the final say in everything right now.

She handed the file to Stephen.

Stephen frowned. "Is this from Lord Austin?"

Natalie fell silent.

It looked like Stephen was already aware of this!

Natalie recalled Heather mentioned that Stephen had taken a call before this. It must have been Austin, right?

Natalie nodded in response to Stephen's question.

Stephen's eyes flashed with silent sharpness as he opened the file and skimmed through its contents. Though the file wasn't thick, Stephen's face darkened as he went through the pages.

When he reached the final page...

Slam!

Stephen slammed the file onto the desk, and the air around him was so intense that Natalie could clearly feel it. Regardless of what had happened before, Stephen had always suppressed his emotions around Heather and Natalie.

But now...!

On her way home, Natalie hadn't opened the file to see its contents because she still recalled how terrifying Austin had been. Now, witnessing Stephen's reaction, she knew it couldn't be anything good.

She moved to pick up the file to see for herself, but the next moment, Stephen's hand landed on it.

"Don't read it," he said.

"Dad." Natalie's tone was tight.

She regretted not reading it on the way back. Now, more than ever, she wanted to know what was inside.

Austin had made everyone perceive him as a fool for years. This showed that he shouldn't be underestimated. Each member of the Entes family was formidable.

"You should leave for now," Stephen said, his eyes filled with worry.

Natalie glanced at Stephen, her eyes filled with concern. But ultimately, she nodded. "Okay."

However, as she turned to leave, Stephen stopped her. "What did he say to you?"

He was referring to Austin!

When she heard that question, Natalie couldn't help but feel that Austin was incredibly rude. She had never encountered a person like him before.

Natalie turned back, her brow furrowing slightly as she said to Stephen, "He asked me to divorce Irwin..."

Before she could finish, Stephen's already grim expression grew even darker. His eyes shimmered with an endless chill.

"Dad!" Natalie exclaimed.

"You should leave," Stephen said.

Natalie wanted to say more, but seeing the oppressive aura emanating from Stephen, she nodded.

What was happening now?

Previously, even if the Entes family wanted to form an alliance with the Jarvis family, they would have taken a softer approach! Even Malcolm, under similar circumstances, didn't act like this.

And now Austin, the rumored fool, had...!

What had he done?
