In Simeria now, the talk about Natalie and Austin was already widespread, and now Caleb seemed to
be accepting her child as well!
Plus, there was Irwin...!
The scene was simply chaotic.
As Natalie and Caleb exited the banquet, Natalie asked, "Will this be enough to make her come out?"
Tonight, Natalie had spent almost the entire evening with Caleb. They looked like they were getting
along, but Natalie was skeptical.
Would Yvonne really come out because of this?
Caleb nodded. "Thank you!"
"As long as it brings her back to you sooner, it's worth it for me!" Natalie choked on the last two words.
Even though her reputation was being dragged through the mud, Natalie didn't care about it. But now,
in this situation... her heart was pounding!!
Before Caleb could say anything, the phone in his pocket rang. He gave Natalie an apologetic look
before moving aside to answer the call.
It wasn't clear what the person on the other end said, but the man's expression changed instantly, and
he subconsciously glanced in Natalie's direction.
Natalie glanced at Caleb from the corner of her eyes.
Was it something related to her again?
All these happenings in Simeria these days were driving her crazy.
The man quickly hung up and came over to her. "I've got information on her. You-"
"You should go. I can make it back on my own."
Natalie had to admit that Caleb really understood Yvonne quite well after all.
He had really managed to push Yvonne to come out with this method.
That was a good thing!
Caleb glanced apologetically at her, and his gaze towards Natalie gained a bit more depth. "Natalie,
don't be so pessimistic about many things."
"You're leaving Simeria, right?"
When Caleb mentioned 'pessimistic', Natalie smiled bitterly.
Was she being too pessimistic?
No!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtActually, she avoided thinking about those problems most of the time. She just wanted to cut ties with
everything from the past.
"Yeah." Caleb nodded.
From this, Natalie could also tell that Yvonne wasn't in Simeria at the moment.
"Go on... Argh!"
Before Natalie could finish speaking, someone wrapped their arms around her waist and lifted her off
the ground.
Her whole body was enveloped by the man's chilly breath...
It was Irwin!
Natalie's head spun.
The arms around her felt full of danger, and she instinctively wanted to break free! However, the man's
strength was overwhelming, leaving her with nowhere to escape.
Enveloped by the man's strong embrace, the danger in his eyes was terrifying!
Natalie fell silent.
"Caleb!" There was more danger in Irwin's tone.
At this moment, Irwin was struggling to contain his emotions, and the tension in his body was obvious
to Natalie.
Natalie knew already that if Irwin found out about tonight's events, he would surely be furious.
However, she didn't expect him to chase after them here.
Natalie looked at Caleb and said, "Caleb, you should leave first."
In Irwin's eyes, the way she was acting now undoubtedly seemed like she was defending Caleb.
The already dangerous atmosphere intensified even more.
Caleb didn't leave. Instead, he looked at Irwin. "Irv."
That single word turned the already tense situation even colder.
"You should leave," Natalie repeated.
Considering the danger emanating from Irwin at this moment, anything Natalie said seemed
dangerous.
In such situations, men generally didn't listen.
In the next moment, Irwin threw Natalie directly into Dylan's arms!
Dylan caught Natalie steadily. As Natalie glanced back in surprise, she saw Irwin striding towards
Caleb.
At that moment, her heart leaped to her throat.
Just as the man was about to throw a punch, Natalie somehow found a surge of strength to shake off
Dylan's hand and rushed forward.
Bang!
"Argh...!"
Crack!
Amidst the chaos, various sounds mixed together!
There were sounds of fists, Natalie's screams, and the sound of bones dislocating.
Instantly, the air froze!
Natalie was suddenly overwhelmed with pain, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Natalie!" Caleb's voice sounded urgent and concerned.
Natalie couldn't quite process everything, feeling a bit dizzy.
And Irwin was silent.
There were a few seconds of confusion for him too!
When he finally reacted, he almost immediately stepped forward and pulled Natalie out of Caleb's
arms.
At that moment, Caleb's voice rose in alarm. "Be careful, she's injured."
"Get lost!"
Irwin was already angry. And now, this scene made his fury shoot through the roof.
Without a second thought, Natalie had actually rushed forward to protect Caleb?!
And Caleb!?
He hadn't even thought about pushing Natalie away in that split second?!
"Caleb, you should leave!" Natalie said.
She was in too much pain. So, even in her tone of voice, there was an unmistakable note of pain.
Caleb frowned as he looked at Natalie.
Worry was evident in his eyes!
But he also knew that staying here at this critical moment would only make the situation more difficult to

In the end, he nodded. "Sorry!"
After Caleb left, Irwin scooped Natalie into his arms and headed towards the car. At that moment,
Natalie was in severe pain! The cold sweat on her forehead now dripped down steadily without
stopping.
She was in so much pain...!
"Ouch, it hurts!"
When Irwin took off her shoes, Natalie felt like her ankle was about to fall off.
Even though he was furious, Irwin's movements at this moment were very gentle. Even so, Natalie still
felt endless pain.
Her pain receptors were naturally sensitive!
The pain she was enduring now seemed to tug at her heartstrings, making her feel incredibly
uncomfortable.
"When did you and him develop such friendship and tacit understanding?"
Yes!
Friendship and tacit understanding!
The reactions between her and Caleb just now demonstrated a tacit understanding and her wanting to
protect Caleb.
And Caleb also wanted to protect her.
Natalie was silent.
The man's tone was filled with danger and questioning!
And in the face of such words, Natalie remained silent.
This silence further provoked Irwin, who was already angry.
"During the day, it was Austin. At night, it was Caleb! Natalie, tell me, what exactly are you up to?"
Her silence made Irwin's tone turn even more dangerous.
Natalie was in pain!
A lot of pain!
However, the pain in her ankle was now suppressed by the coldness in her heart.
It turned out people were right. The most painful thing wasn't physical pain but heartache.
