Chapter 760 So Indifferent There were so many memories in Natalie's life that she didn't want to recall. Each one was a bloodstained reminder.
And now, Irwin had the audacity to claim that all of it had been settled?! Where did he get the nerve to utter such words? "Irwin, it seems there's nothing left to say between us!" Natalie's tone grew calm.
Despite the turmoil inside her just moments ago, Natalie had finally regained her composure.
There was never much to say between them anyway, and the fact that they
| could talk at all now was progress.
Just as Natalie was about to turn away... hl "Your eyes...!"" Irwin began. But then, he stopped abruptly, and Natalie whipped around, her gaze sharp.
Her eyes? For a long time, her eyes had been a very sensitive topic. Being the astute person she was, Natalie couldn't pretend that she hadn't picked up anything from Irwin's words.
She had sensed it long ago.
"Were they Cedric's?" Natalie asked pointedly.
Irwin suddenly became quiet. In that instant, his mind went completely blank. He wondered why he felt that
way. It was because Natalie spoke in a very calm and composed manner, without showing any emotion in her eyes or any hint of feeling.
And what was her response to the situation? Natalie took Irwin's silence as confirmation. "I see. So what?" It was direct and mocking.
Irwin felt suffocated upon hearing Natalie's words.
So what? Was that her reaction upon learning the truth about her eyes? There wasn't a single flutter of emotion! At this moment, Irwin didn't know
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhat to say to Natalie. He felt like he was facing a stranger, one who was utterly indifferent. — "Since you have no further business with me, Mr. Frazier, I'll be leaving," Natalie said without looking back, her final words chillingly cold and calm.
She left without hesitation.
After a while, Dylan entered the room.
"Sir," Dylan said, his tone full of concern as he looked at Irwin's troubled expression.
Irwin was lost in thought and snapped back to reality when Dylan appeared, momentarily dazed.
"She..." Irwin tried to speak, but he
couldn't find the words.
He hadn't expected this.
They had kept things from Natalie, fearing her reaction.
But now... what was this? It was all their assumptions.
Natalie's reaction was so calm and indifferent, as if none mattered to her.
Or perhaps, it truly didn't matter.
Yes, it didn't matter.
Only when something truly didn't matter would she react like this.
But Cedric...! "Madam has already left," Dylan reminded gently.
1" know," Irwin replied with a bitter taste in his mouth.
Yes, he knew everything.
He knew it all, and it was precisely because he knew everything that he was so shocked by what had just transpired.
In fact, he was still in disbelief.
150 this is how it really ends," Irwin murmured to himself after a long silence.
Was it really over? Just like Cedric felt there was no way out when he was with Natalie before, Irwin felt the same now.
When Natalie learned about those eyes, she had been too calm. This level of calmness was beyond everyone's
expectations and certainly beyond Irwin's.
"Dylan." Irwin sighed.
At this point, even Dylan didn't know what to say. So many things had happened unexpectedly.
"How does she do it?" Irwin whispered.
Dylan remained silent.
How did she do it? Wasn't it because she had been hurt too much and too deeply? Wasn't that how it is for women? It was bad enough with everything else, but Cedric's attitude toward Luna had been particularly troubling. His actions were something Natalie
couldn't accept, so it was only natural she would have such an indifferent attitude now. = "Still no news about Cedric?" Irwin asked.
Although they hadn't heard anything from Cedric, Irwin knew that Cedric knew everything happening in Simeria.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe always knew! So, did the all-knowing Cedric know about Natalie's current state of mind? She didn't need him anymore.
She truly didn't need him anymore.
Before leaving, Cedric had always been worried that the connection between the Entes and the Jarvis families would
drag Natalie into trouble.
But now, Irwin found that cencern to be ironic. = "No." Dylan shook his head.
Such news would undoubtedly weigh heavily on them.
"Perhaps it's better this way," Irwin said.
No news meant Cedric had never intended to come back.
Maybe that was for the best! Natalie had truly put the past behind her. If it wasn't over, why would she adopt such a cold attitude? Irwin couldn't help but feel incensed thinking about Natalie's attitude now.
Obviously, nobody expected Natalie to be so calm after hearing such information. - In fact, she was completely indifferent! Clearly, Natalie's reaction was unexpected for everyone, especially for Irwin. They thought telling Natalie about this matter would make her a bit more reserved regarding the Entes family's affairs.
Who would have thought she would react like this? When Natalie returned from Maple Peak, she didn't head to Hillside Villa.
Instead, she went to Verdant Villa.
Bianca watched Natalie down two large glasses of wine early in the morning.
"What are you doing...?" Bianca asked in disbelief.
That was wine, not water! It was worth noting that during this period, nobody could persuade Natalie to drink alcohol because of her eye surgery. Since recovering her sight, she has cherished her eyesight immensely! So, Natalie's sudden drinking surprised Bianca. Bianca wanted to advise against it, but seeing the melancholy in Natalie's eyes, she kept quiet.
Hasn't it always been like this between them?
Whenever Natalie was troubled, she came to Bianca, who never asked too many questions. This aspect of hers makes Natalie feel more comfortable.
She could speak her mind without worrying about it being spread around.
That was what having a best friend was like.
