Chapter 745 Can’t Get Her Back  It had to be said that things were truly starting now.


    As everyone had spected, things might spiral out of control once she and Irwin end things.


    "Natalie, I thought you wouldn''t refuse me," Austin said.


    "But I did, " Natalie replied tly.


    As she finished speaking, Austin chuckled. Hisugh sounded gentle, but it felt strangely eerie to Natalie! She felt irritated at his response. "I''m hanging up."  without waiting for Austin to respond, she ended the call abruptly.


    Although she had anticipated this situation before divorcing Irwin, Natalie still felt uneasy.


    However, even if she had to experience this and more, she wouldn''t change her decision. She no longer wanted to be involved with Irwin and Cedric in any way.


    Meanwhile, Austin was in Orchid Bay.


    Since announcing his recovery, manyplicated situations have happened around him.


    However, his sharp instincts had driven away many people.


    Up until now, even Cole, his subordinate, didn''t quite understand why Austin had decided to reveal himself at such a crucial moment. After


    all, hiding his identity would have  given him more control over  everything.


    What was the benefit in doing this?  So far, it only invited a lot of trouble, especially from the Stewart family.


    Ever since Austin announced his recovery, the Stewart family''s behavior had been embarrassing. They even sent Alto''s ex-wife to Austin, iming it was a test.


    A test? Hah!  Because Austin had been ill for years, yvette''s father, Tobias Stewart, assumed that Austin hadn''t managed to gather much support over the years.


    So, Tobias wanted to use his daughter to build a rtionship with Austin! Cole couldn''t help but feel uneasy.


    Luckily, Tobias only had one daughter.


    If he had more than one daughter, who knew what an indecisive man like him | would do?  Everyone around Austin could keenly feel the intense and tumultuous situation around them after he announced his recovery.


    "Ms. Walker rejected your invitation," Cole said.


    His tone was bitter, especially after he saw the smile on Austin''s lips.


    Over the years... Austin had feigned illness, and the people around him had felt the true nature of human rtionships.


    And now...


    Austin understood Cole''s thoughts and said, "Don''t worry too much. Many


    people have coveted the jarvis family''s prestige, but none have fared well.


    Stephen is a cunning old fox, and Natis his daughter. I''m sure she''s aplicated woman." Cole was speechless and surprised at how Austin had addressed Natalie! He had used such an intimate nickname...! Cole had to admit that Austin''s sudden announcement of his recovery caught everyone off guard. Then, Austin had affectionally referred to Natalie when speaking about her. It made Cole wonder if Austin''s decision had something to do with Natalie.


    No, it couldn''t be! Austin had always been in Simeria, while Natalie had been living in Verde


    City.


    Was it... that incident? "Lord Austin!" "She''ll agree. Trust me," Austin replied in a deep voice.


    Cole fell silent.


    She would agree? At this moment, Austin seemed poised for victory. When he spoke in such a profound tone, it felt like he held all the cards in his hands.


    Lord Austin, did you already know Ms. Jarvis before this?" Cole asked.


    As soon as Cole finished speaking, various images shed through Austin''s mind. The depths of his eyes, usually profound, now flickered with


    gentle light.


    On the other side, Reba had indeed pressed charges against Natalie.


    However, things were different for Natalie this time.


    No matter what trouble Reba stirred up and wanted to publicize, no mediapany dared to report it.


    After all, this was Simeria.


    Plus, the matter was also rted to the Jarvis family. Even if the media wanted to report it, they had to consult the Jarvis family first.


    Crash! Reba threw her cup to the ground, shattering the ss into shards that littered all over the floor. As she picked


    up the fragments, they grazed her fingers, causing her to wince in pain.


    Already angry, she grabbed a pillow  from the sofa and hurled it across the room.


    Calvin stood nearby, witnessing Reba''s outburst. Those who had  been with her for so long seemed to understand her mood at this moment.


    "Who does she think she is to treat me like this?!" Reba screamed.


    A leopard couldn''t change its spots.


    Reba had made many concessions to Natalie before, but knowing so much now, she became extremely mad. When she thought about how Cedric was missing, Reba became hysterical.


    Cedric was blind! He had given Natalie everything, and Natalie treated him this way! And her attitude towards Reba and the Johnson family...! How could Reba bear such disrespect?!  "Madam, don''t be angry," Calvin said.


    "How can I not be angry, Calvin? I''m heartbroken and angry!" Reba snapped back.


    How could she not be angry?  Just thinking about how Cedric had fought against her for Natalie made her feel particrly ufortable.


    Calvin fell silent.


    "Just how powerful is the Jarvis family


    here? It''s such big news, but no one dares to publish it!" Reba fumed.


    When she thought about this again, Reba''s anger red even higher.


    It was as if no one in Simeria could go against the Jarvis family!  At Reba''s words, Calvin''s gaze deepened. He replied easily, "Their wealth and power can rival a nation!"  Reba was speechless, and she stiffened at Calvin''s words.


    She used to look down on Natalie so much, it was evident. Who could have imagined that Natalie had such a formidable force behind her?  If Reba had known at the time...


    If she had known, how would things be different?  She would have treated Natalie even better than Jocelyn! What a pity!  But so what if it was a pity?  Things had already reached this point, and Reba didn''t want to dwell on it anymore. Things had already happened, and it was pointless to regret it. There was no turning back now.

    After thinking for a moment, Calvin said, "There''s one more thing." "What is it?"  "Thewyer has rejected everything we proposed."  "What do you mean?" Reba''s face paled at the news.


    Calvin remained silent, confirming Reba''s worst fears. Her already troubled expression turned even graver upon hearing this news. Anger surged relentlessly in her heart!  "Does that mean I can''t even get my granddaughter back now?"
