Chapter 301 Does He Know What the Bottom Line Is?
Natalie didn’t know how she returned to the company.
After receiving a call from Heather and hearing what she said, tenderness filled Natalie’s eyes.
“Thank you, Aunt.” Her tone was full of gratitude and emotion.
“Silly child, what are you saying? I’m here, so you can stop worrying, hmm?” Heather responded.
“Yeah.”
Natalie had to admit that it was true. Since Heather arrived in Snow City, Natalie had indeed felt more at ease.
After all, Heather was a meticulous
person.
Lily looked at Isabella, who was silently having breakfast.
Then, Isabella heard Lily say, “Master said he’s very satisfied with the results this time.”
“Hah!” Isabella sneered.
Before Lily could speak, Isabella continued, “Of course, he’s satisfied. The entire Simeria now has a negative view of Natalie, and Regal Horizons has experienced some turbulence because of it, right?”
Π
“Is this his goal?”
Was his true goal Regal Horizons International?
With these words, the atmosphere in the living room became heavy.
Lily’s demeanor also became colder.
She said, “This is not something we should be asking.”
“When can I see her?”
It always came back to the same topic!
eto!
Isabella was originally willing to submit herself to these people because of her, but she couldn’t bear to do it all the time.
Being pressed to do things she didn’t want to do genuinely felt unpleasant.

When she was willingly going against Natalie in the past, that man was her support.
But now, things were different.
Being coerced to do things felt even more unpleasant.
Lily said, “Master already said not to ask again!”
“In that case, tell him to find someone else to do the job!”
It was rare that Isabella’s attitude became a bit more assertive.
This was the first time since she started cooperating with Lily’s master that she was being so
firm.
Things were now different!
Isabelle never expected the person who had always supported her from the shadows would turn out to be him… the man closest to Natalie!
Natalie probably didn’t expect it either.
Now, Natalie was truly surrounded by wolves.
The chill in Lily’s eyes increased a few degrees.
“You’re challenging the master’s bottom line.”
“Does he know what the bottom line is?” Isabella shot back with a displeased tone.
Π
Before Lily could threaten Isabella again, she continued, “I don’t even know whether she’s
alive, you know? So, why should if she is happy or not?!”
I
Living in comfort was secondary compared to life and death.
Lily also realized that Isabella was determined this time and would only be satisfied if she saw that person.
Finally, Lily relented a little and said, “I’ll talk to the master about it.”
Upon hearing this, the tension in Isabella’s shoulders also eased a bit.
However, Lily said in the next moment, “But there’s one thing the master is not very satisfied with.”
What?
You’re still staying at this hotel.”
Although it was a luxurious hotel, the question of who moved in with Cedric became crucial

While Lily didn’t explicitly state it, Isabella understood the implication of her words. 1
Isabella’s expression turned even worse.
In Simeria, public opinion was buzzing.
However, to everyone’s surprise, news broke that Regal Horizons International had acquired
Palm Pearl Inc. at noon.
This news caused an uproar!
In that instant, people understood that the interaction between Natalie and Cedric was related to an acquisition contract.
Even though they were ex–husband and ex–wife, it didn’t affect their professional interactions, right?
Public opinion collapsed on its own.
Watching Wendy return with the acquisition contract, Natalie smiled.
“How rare of him to cooperate nicely with me!”
To Natalie, Cedric was not just a shameless man. He was also willful and arrogant.
In the past, as long as there was even a slight thought that she might harm Isabella or Christina, he would not spare her.
She could especially recall the time in Verde City when he had heartlessly thrown her into prison.
She hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly.
Cedric had just warned her in the morning not to do anything to Isabella. Yet, the contract was still executed without any hindrance later in the day.
“There weren’t any difficulties from their end,” Wendy remarked.
Not even any difficulties?
That was truly surprising!
However, Natalie didn’t think too much about it. Regardless, as long as the crisis on Regal Horizons side was resolved, she didn’t care much for anything else.
Just then, her phone vibrated.
It was a call from Stephen.

Natalie answered, “Hello, Uncle.”
“I saw what happened. You handled the situation well. I feel at ease knowing that the group is in good hands,” Stephen said honestly.
Natalie had dealt with the matter in a mature and swift manner, allowing the company to
continue operating seamlessly. With that, Stephen could see that Natalie was adept at managing the company’s affairs.
“Uncle…”
Natalie felt a bit embarrassed about her uncle’s words. Compared to an old hand like him, she was still inexperienced.
“I’m going to Snow City to accompany your aunt for a while.”
“Aunt?”
“Yeah. I won’t be in Simeria for a while. As we agreed before, don’t act recklessly on your e
“Alright, I understand.”
Stephen and Heather had an extremely good relationship. Despite many years of marriage, they were still inseparable.
end.”
However, because of Natalie’s situation, Heather would be staying in Snow City for a long time. It would be the first time Stephen and Heather would be separated for such an extended period.
So, it was only natural for Stephen to go to Heather.
But Simeria…!
Suddenly, Natalie was left alone.
Natalie couldn’t help but feel a sense of emptiness in her heart. The recent events only made. the feeling worse.
Also, the mysterious presence around her made her feel on edge.
Stephen was decisive, and he left as soon as he decided. He took the earliest afternoon flight.
Upon receiving the news, Cedric furrowed his brow.
“Mrs. Jarvis has yet to return, but Mr. Jarvis has now suddenly left Simeria…”
In other words, Natalie was the only one left from the Jarvis family in Simeria at the moment.
I was hard to believe that there was nothing significant about this situation.
+25 BONUS
What was Stephen planning, or had something happening on Natalie’s side?
“Have you tracked their itinerary?” Cedric asked
“No.” Lucas shook his head with a serious expression.
Because Lucas couldn’t track Stephen and Heather’s location, he felt it was a significant issue. Considering the Jarvis family’s status in Simeria, it was impossible for them to leave all at
once.
“I got it.” Cedric took a deep drag of his cigarette and added, “Starting now, keep a close eye on Natalie’s activities during the day.”
Clearly, Cedric had sensed a problem at this point
If Natalie were also to leave, it meant that Stephen must be planning something behind the scenes!
