Chapter 535 Tilted Situation
Luna was undeniably well–behaved. Heather had undoubtedly invested much effort in her
upbringing, and everyone in the household was fond of the child. Her sweet demeanor
was particularly charming.
After breakfast, Clyde and Natalie went to the study. Both were obviously tensed.
“What’s your plan moving forward?” Clyde finally voiced the question that lingered
between them.
Indeed, what plans did Natalie have?
After witnessing so much, her perceptions and understanding of everything had drastically
shifted.
It wasn’t merely a change.
Her entire worldview had been overturned.
Taking a deep breath, Natalie replied firmly, “I have my own arrangements.”
“Nat,” Clyde began.
“I want to handle this matter personally,” Natalie cut in with a heavy tone.
Yes.
She wanted to confront things head–on, whether it was concerning Irwin or Cedric.
A shadow of concern crossed Clyde’s eyes.

Natalie was too calm, and her demeanor only heightened the sense of impending danger!
Natalie met Clyde’s serious gaze and said, “Cly.”
“Yes?”
“Did you know about all of this before?”
Cedric had once warned her about Irwin’s true nature.
Following Clyde’s return to the Jarvis family, what had he said to her back then?
Clyde had told her that Cedric… wasn’t a good person.
Given the events that transpired, she realized none of these individuals were genuinely
good.
However, the depth of deception and schemes behind their facades surprised her.

What kind of resilience and cunning did it take for someone to maintain such a facade for
a decade?
She dared not contemplate it.
Clyde shook his head and admitted, “I had no idea their feud was over a woman.”
He spoke the truth. While they had all been in Wexford around the same time, they had
never truly crossed paths.
Even if they had met, suspicions about each other’s identities would not have arisen
because they were unfamiliar with each other.
In addition, the conflict between them had always remained hidden, brewing silently
beneath the surface.
Clyde had never imagined that the enmity between Cedric and Irwin stemmed from a
woman!
By the time Clyde became aware of their existence, Cedric and Irwin were already
enemies.
This understanding made Clyde deeply concerned when he learned of Natalie’s
involvement with both Irwin and Cedric.
Two arch–enemies vying for the same woman?
The implications were clear that it didn’t bode well for Natalie.
“It seems they really cleaned up their mess back then,” Natalie remarked, taking a deep
breath.
No matter how well they’d covered their tracks, the truth always had a way of surfacing.
Ten years…!

now?!
Everyone had their pride. Even when Natalie had nothing, she never took advantage of
Cedric’s love for her.
Seven years of enduring love!
During that time, she had never accepted anything valuable from Cedric.
Looking back, it seemed bitterly ironic.
“Natalie,” Clyde began, his eyes filled with concern.
He had noticed the fleeting hurt in her eyes at her mention of the past. She was proud,
especially when it came to matters of the heart!
Yet, to realize now that her steadfastness and pride had been trampled upon was
agonizing.

Clyde didn’t need to ask to know that Natalie was carrying an immense amount of pain.
“Cly.”
“Yes?”
“Is Frederick significant to you?” he asked.
“No,” Clyde replied curtly.
“In that case, I need to know exactly where Frederick is,” Natalie declared, each word
dripping
with cold determination.
