A man in black, with eagle–like eyes and a sharp expression, emerged from one of the vehicles.
Cedric’s face turned cold.
Someone pulled open Natalie’s car door!

Natalie’s expression darkened.

The car came to a stop at Hillside Villa, where Yves was already waiting.
“Miss,” Yves called out as he approached, looking at Natalie with concern.
After confirming there was nothing wrong with Natalie, he felt relieved.
“Now, we need to leave.”
Leave? Now?
Natalie glanced at Leon. Lydia had already brought out a packed luggage for her. Before. returning,
Leon had instructed Lydia on what to pack, following Stephen’s arrangements.
If it weren’t for this, they would have left immediately.

Right now, Bianca looked nothing like her proud and carefree self from her days in Verde City.
Back then, she stood at the pinnacle of her career, living a carefree and unrestrained life. But now, she
had fallen from grace. She had lost much weight and held none of her former elegance.
Yet, over the past two years, despite Malcolm’s torment, her face remained consistently impassive.
But now, watching Natalie on the screen, she couldn’t help but tremble.
“It seems she’s important to you as well,” Malcolm said mockingly.
Bianca remained silent, but her silence provided the man with an answer.

“Hah, how stubborn.”
Malcolm snapped his fingers, and the scene shifted. They watched as Natalie got into Irwin’s

each one of them wears a mask!”
