Chapter 770 Completely Estranged The hatred within her heart was the kind that could lead toplete estrangement. In fact, it would be quite rxing if such a thing actually happened.


    As long as there''s no interaction, some things could be ignored.


    But what was the problem now? Reba kept appearing in front of her, and Christina... was alsoing! In this case, how could Natalie let go of the past? "Nat!" "We don''t know why Christina ising, but one thing is certain: things won''t be that simple," Natalie


    said, trying hard to remain calm though her heart was in turmoil.


    Whenever a member of the Johnson family appeared before Natalie now, it would inevitably trigger her emotions.


    Clyde tightened his arms around Natalie. "Don''t worry, I''m here." ] know." It was because she had a family by her side that she could still manage to control her emotions most of the time.


    In Clyde''s arms, Natalie gradually calmed down.


    Finally, the two sat down. Clyde handed Natalie a ss of water. "Here.


    Drink slowly." "Thanks." As Natalie drank the water,


    she began to feel slightly better.

    Clyde looked at her and said, "Lord Austin has concealed the altercation between you and Reba today." "Alright." That was something Natalie had expected. Austin had yet to make any demands on the Jarvis family, so they were cautious about what Natalie did.


    The men from the Entes family were not honest people. Who knew what conditions they would impose next? So, regardless of what Austin did, Natalie would always maintain a distance.


    As Clyde saw Natalie finally rxing, his expression turned extremely serious and concerned. "There''s one


    more thing." Clyde was sure Natalie would go crazy once he told her what itwas.


    "What is it?" Natalie''s heart skipped a beat involuntarily as she saw Clyde''s serious expression.


    There had been quite a few things happeningtely, one after another...


    "Reba can''t leave." "What do you mean?" Lord Icarus has made his move." A dark glint shed in Natalie''s eyes at the mention of Icarus. Initially, it was a matter between her and the Johnson family, but now it seemed to involve the Entes family. It even involved the rtionship between the Entes family


    and the Jarvis family.


    When she heard about Christinaing to Simeria because of Icarus, her heart had already been in turmoil.


    Now, hearing that they couldn''t get Reba out of Simeria because of Icarus...


    "1s this a showdown between Lord Icarus and Lord Austin?" That was Clyde''s first thought when he heard the news. He looked at Natalie, his eyes filled with concern.


    Reba couldn''t leave Simeria for the time being. This meant Natalie couldn''t avoid trouble with her, especially now that Icarus was protecting her. Trying to deal with Reba would be even more difficult.


    Natalie took a deep breath and said, "It''s okay, I don''t care." Although she said that, deep down...


    Everything was in chaos. The situation waspletely muddled! Natalie and Clyde realized that Simeria might not be as peaceful for them in the future. It was no wonder Stephen had told her before leaving Simeria that there were things she didn''t want to face but had to.


    It seemed like she had been left to fend for herself over the years, but was that really the case? Ever since she returned to the Jarvis family, everything had changed.


    Back then, everything had simply been suppressed for the time being.


    Now, it was time to face it.


    That night, Natalie couldn''t sleep.


    Clyde had left early, presumably to follow up on the news about the seal that he had recently obtained.


    At breakfast, Natalie''s expression was gloomy.


    Irwin had dropped by. Natalie couldn''t muster any interest in his arrival.


    "What now? Are you still worried 1 might eat Reba or something? Don''t worry. It''s not like I can do that. She has the Entes family protecting her." Irwin had kept her out of it for some time, saying it was Cedric''s wish before he left.


    But now? While she wasn''t directly involved, Reba, as Cedric''s mother, was. - "I''m leaving," Irwin said.


    n n Leaving? Natalie''s smile was tinged with irony upon hearing this.


    "Are you leaving for good?" The emphasis on "for good" was heavy in her voice.


    Irwin looked at Natalie, his eyes flickering. Leave for good? Was that what she wanted? A bitter smile touched his lips.


    "1f that''s what you want, I''ll make it more permanent this time." |


    "That would be for the best," Natalie responded emotionlessly.


    Irwin was already suffocating, but now it felt like a hand was squeezing his heart tightly.


    The pain felt worse than suffocation...! "Cedric is in Yuloria. He''s living in the cottage you used to live-" "Irwin!" Natalie cut him off sharply, and her eyes shimmered with endless danger.


    Was it never-ending when it came to Cedric? "you did it on purpose, didn''t you?" Natalie''s face darkenedpletely.


    Irwin knew she least wanted to hear about Cedric''s whereabouts.


    And now, he was...! "He''s living in the cottage you used to live in, experiencing the rain every day, just like you used to experience the weather in Yuloria," Irwin said.


    "Irwin!" "He''s gone missing." n n The tension between them erupted.


    Missing? "When my people went there, he wasn''t there. No one knows where he went!" "He left Ka in Yuloria. Where do you think he would go?" "Does that concern me?"


    Here it was again, the same indifference Natalie had disyed all along. - Irwin had lost count of how many times he had seen Natalie like thistely. No one knew what Irwin was feeling right now.


    She really didn''t care! She didn''t even ask more questions.


    "No wonder he said he couldn''t see any hope by your side before." "Hope?" Natalie chuckled at the mention of hope.


    Herughter was sarcastic and icy.


    Hope? Had she ever felt hope? Who had given her hope in those moments of despair? "If you hadn''t mentioned it, I would


    have forgotten all about it. You gave me hope when I was at my most desperate moments." - Natalie''sughter grew even colder when she mentioned hope.
