"Do you know Ms. Schneider?" Irwin asked as his grip on Natalie tightened.
Natalie tilted her head slightly, but the man's grip grew even firmer.
"Let go!" she exclaimed.
"Natalie."
"Yes, I know her!" Natalie cut straight to the point.
Irwin took a sharp breath, his gaze deepening as he looked at Natalie.
Seizing the moment when Irwin was momentarily distracted, Natalie slipped her hand out of his grasp and moved
to the side.

Associating with people from the Schneider family wasn't a very well-received act in Wexford. It was as if merely
knowing someone from that family would bring misfortune.
Yet Natalie, once a homemaker, actually knew them?
And no one had known?
How?!
"Does Abigail know about the missing half of the documents?" Irwin asked.
"Mr. Frazier!" Natalie's tone grew heavy, her eyes reflecting a hint of sarcasm. "Are you asking if Abigail knows
about the widely known missing documents?"
Irwin fell silent, stunned.
Indeed!
The whole world now knew that the missing half of the documents was in his and Cedric's possession.
For years, neither knew about the other's copy.
Yet Natalie... The storm in her eyes was unmistakable!
A long silence passed between them, but the atmosphere remained tense.
Irwin looked at the woman before him, suddenly realizing just how deeply Natalie had been involved.
There were sides to her that he and perhaps even Cedric had never truly understood.
"Abigail... was she your first scheme since arriving in Wexford?" he questioned.

"Would I need to do such a thing?" Natalie replied sarcastically.
Indeed, Abigail didn't require any of Natalie's manipulations to become entangled in this mess.
Why?
Now that the whereabouts of those documents were clear, troubles weren't just brewing between Cedric and
Abigail, but even around Irwin!
Irwin had to admit that Natalie's move was truly ruthless.
"Fine, then tell me, how did you find out about the documents?"
Everything was in chaos—utter chaos!
Natalie's move had disrupted both Irwin's and Cedric's worlds.
At this moment, Irwin realized Natalie was not just formidable—she was enigmatic, with depths he had never truly
understood!
Natalie chuckled.
It was a deep, unsettling laugh.
