Chapter 725 Well-Educated and Sensible il | Dangerous? When Natalie heard Austin's words, she merely smiled at him indifferently.
"If you weren't trying to leverage the Jarvis Family..." At this point, Natalie paused.
They had already arrived at Lotus Villa.
Natalie opened the car door and got out but didn't leave immediately. Instead, she stood with her back to Austin, gazing up at the night sky filled with stars.
In that moment, memories she least wanted to recall flashed through her mind—memories of the once beautiful moments with Cedric. Those were
memories she preferred to forget, as they brought her nothing but pain.
Taking a deep breath, she pushed down the heaviness in her chest, burying those memories beneath the stars.
When she finally spoke again, her tone was much colder. "Since you know how dangerous I am now, stay away from me." Austin was stunned at her words.
Without waiting for him to respond, Natalie turned and stepped inside. She was a petite figure, but now she seemed filled with a reservoir of resentment.
Austin watched her disappear before his eyes. His eyes, once complex, now harbored a sharp and endless danger.
"Martin." "Yes, Lord Austin?" 5 Austin's tone held depth as he asked, "Are you sure she was well-educated and sensible when she was at the Johnson family?" Looking at Natalie now, there was nothing in her demeanor that hinted at her being 'well-educated and sensible’.
"According to the investigation records, that's correct," Martin replied.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe records...! If the investigation indeed revealed such information, then there must be a fierce beast dwelling within Natalie's heart.
That was what Austin thought.
Her appearance was harmless enough, but now, looking at Natalie, Austin felt a sense of unease.
"I regret it." "What?" Martin, who was driving, was stunned.
Regret? In their world, the concept of regret’ had never existed in Austin's vocabulary.
Yet here he was, admitting regret? What did he regret? At the next moment, Austin said, "Tell Harvey to expedite the process. I want to see Natalie divorced from Irwin as soon as possible."
Martin fell silent.
That had nothing to do with his regret! Despite spending so much time by Austin's side, Martin had no idea where this depth in his words was coming from.
When Natalie arrived home, Heather was already in bed with Luna, and Clyde was nowhere to be seen as usual.
However, even in an empty house, Natalie felt a sense of comfort. Just being here made her feel at ease.
When Stephen saw her, his expression was grave.
Natalie approached Stephen and sat
beside him. "What's wrong, Dad?" | Stephen looked at her. "Did you go and confront Rebecca?" oil Bringing up Rebecca instantly dampened Natalie's good mood.
Without much explanation, she responded dully, "Yes." Stephen sighed, his tone full of resignation. He knew the complexities of Natalie and Rebecca's relationship | and didn't know what to say about the matter at hand.
Things always need to be resolved, especially when they involve the past.
Those who come in later should refrain from interfering.
"Nat." "Yeah?"
"Luna is here, and nobody is taking her away," Stephen said.
At that moment, Natalie's emotions surged. She threw herself into Stephen's arms. Despite her firmness in front of Rebecca, Stephen's words brought her considerable relief.
"Yeah." Having a family felt wonderful.
Natalie dared not imagine what it would be like if she were alone, facing Rebecca's aggressiveness.
How would she cope? She kept asking herself this question, but no matter what, she wouldn't tread the same old path again. That was why Rebecca's attempts to treat her as before were futile.
"As for how to handle other matters, you should feel free to do as you see fit.
Don't worry too much about it," Stephen continued.
That was what family was for! Even such simple words provided Natalie with endless support, offering some comfort and stability in her shattered and tumultuous world.
"Thank you, Dad." "Also, divorce Irwin." Stephen's words left her stunned.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDivorce? She had been contemplating divorcing Irwin, but wasn't the Entes family causing problems lately. She was worried about the Jarvis family being affected.
But Stephen said, "Family is more important than hatred." Hatred? = Stephen had encountered many enemies in his life. If he sought revenge on each one, where would the tranquility of the Jarvis family be? How could Heather find peace in such an environment? "Dad | n "I know you hate him. Since you hate him, then he must be insignificant. So why let hatred occupy your heart?" She hated him, so that made him insignificant? If someone was truly hated, then they really didn't matter anymore.
In that case...
Natalie couldn't deny that both Cedric and Irwin were subjects of her hatred.
She despised them and wished she could tear them apart.
"But Rebecca..." When it came to Rebecca, Natalie's emotions were a tumultuous storm.
For her, family was indeed important, and everything she did now was to protect them.
She, of course, also desired a peaceful life for Luna. | But the Johnson family...! | They had never given her peace. Ever since she got involved years ago, the Johnson family seemed intent on barging into her life.
For Natalie, this feeling is truly unbearable.
""Rebecca is a difficult person to deal with. However..." Stephen paused here.
The look he gave Natalie was so complex and filled with concern.
He originally intended to say something more tactful, but in the end, he held back.
Irwin shouldn't occupy a place in Natalie's heart.
Cedric should also remain in the past.
But Rebecca was truly despicable! Putting what Natalie and Heather felt aside, Stephen also felt that Rebecca's actions were unforgivable, even if he
had only heard about them!
