Chapter 428 Manipulation and Testing

It was fine?

Previously, Irwin had threatened her just as Cedric had, using Clyde’s sordid past to make her

retrieve half of the documents from Cedric.

But now, he he actually said it was fine?

Natalie was silent.

She stared quietly at the man opposite her.

Irwin crushed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and then stood, moving closer to her. The closer he got, the more guarded Natalie became.

With a smile at the corner of his mouth, Irwin sat beside her, pulling her still–cold hand towards

him

“Who do you think is more detestable, a manipulator or a betrayer?”

Natalie’s mind went blank instantly.

She stared at Irwin, almost forgetting to remove her hand from his grip!

A manipulator or a betrayer?

That was what had been tormenting Natalie recently.

He… he actually!

“Irwin!” Natalie uttered his name, bewildered by the mention of betrayal and manipulation.

Why would he…?

Irwin’s eyes remained warm as he gazed into hers.

Undoubtedly, the scene of Kayla being sick and how Natalie had been manipulated and betrayed…

It all formed a sharp contrast in Natalie’s mind!

Irwin pulled Natalie closer, murmuring, “Nat, that manipulation… was more about gauging his

love for you.

Natalie was silent.

Her heart raced, a suffocating sensation engulfing her as Irwin’s words seemed to tear her apart

ipulation was detestable, Irwin was right. This entire ordeal revealed the depths of

If his feelings for her were truly steadfast and unwavering, no number of Isabellas could have driven them to this point

However, this ordeal revealed the opposite!

It made Natalie realize that even without Isabella, even with someone else… their world would

still be upended.

“Don’t act like you saved me. You’re just as detestable as he is” Natalie pulled her hand forcefully from Irwin’s grasp, her voice icy.

Irwin chuckled softly, his smile reminiscent of a sly fox. “Yes, I’m just as detestable.”

“Hmph!” Natalie stood up from Irwin’s embrace and coldly said, “Whatever your intentions were in approaching me, it ends now.”

Indeed, it had to end.

Before, when Natalie was unaware of Irwin’s intentions, his manipulation of her was truly just that

-manipulation.

“If you’re so guarded, who could possibly manipulate you?” Irwin said gently.

Natalie was silent.

Guarded?

Didn’t he have any idea why she was so guarded?

“What do you really want?” Natalie asked as she took a deep breath and looked at Irwin.

Yes, that was the question.

What did Irwin really want?

Undoubtedly, having Natalie steal the documents wasn’t his primary goal.

Irwin was enigmatic, so much so that even when Frederick disappeared and she gave the

information to Malcolm, he didn’t seem to blame her.

Such a profound man caused Natalie to doubt if he truly remained oblivious to her dealings with.

Malcolm.

His eyes were deep, and as Natalie said, even his smiles carried weight.

“Nat, you’re clever. The way you escaped Malcolm’s grasp surprised and pleased me,” Irwin

remarked

During those chaotic times in Wexford, both Stephen and Irwin were preoccupied, leaving Natalie vulnerable to Malcolm’s manipulations,

Malcolm wanted to ally with the Jarvis family to bolster his influence within the Entes family.

Irwin had instructed Yves to bring Natalie to Wexford, but she !

He had to admit that Natalie’s vigilance was commendable. As she couldn’t see through everything clearly back then, she chose to stay close toMalcolm even when the situation seemed

dire.

What surprised Irwin more was how she used Frederick’s information to her advantage.

Natalie, noticing the smirk in Irwin’s eyes, paled.

He knew? He knew she had sold Frederick out?!

“You…?!”

“How long have you known?‘ Irwin interrupted her thoughts, his gaze penetrating.

When had she started being so wary?

Natalie remained silent. He seemed to know everything but kept mum

Why?

Undoubtedly, Irwin knowing about the matter with Frederick deeply affected Natalie. She took several deep breaths but couldn’t shake off theheavy feeling in her chest.

Standing up, Irwin said, “Nat, you only have two paths ahead: manipulation or betrayal…”
