Chapter 337 Won’t Compromise Easily
Malcolm’s actions had torn apart Natalie’s plans and forcibly intertwined himself with her and the Jarvis
family.
During dinner time, he… arrived at Hillside Villa!
At the dining table, Natalie glared fiercely at Malcolm. She looked as if she wanted to tear him to pieces.
with her bare hands!
her.
“Hah! The man sneered.
Natalie couldn’t stand Malcolm’s attitude. She picked up her red wine and took several sips. However, the
irritation in her ch*st didn’t subside. In fact, it only grew more infuriating.
“My princess, you should remember this. Never try to manipulate a man who’s heartless and doesn’t love
you!
Natalie stiffened at his words, and her eyes narrowed dangerously. She looked at Malcolm and coldly said, “Thank you, I’ll remember that!”
He was right.
Natalie had managed to force Cedric to retreat because he wasn’t heartless back then. However, those feelings weren’t directed at her.
Natalie had used Isabella as leverage to drive him away.
But this time was different. Malcolm was a heartless man, and the only person who had held his heart had already left the world.
In this case, what could possibly be used as leverage against him?
“Another good example would be Irwin!” Malcolm suddenly pointed out.
Natalie was silent.
Irwin?!
Speaking of Irwin, things between them were…!
Since she came back, Irwin had been…
It didn’t matter. If Irwin didn’t come looking for her, she was happy with the distance between them. It would be difficult for her if Irwin genuinely had feelings for her.
Now Natalie fully understood that when someone didn’t love a person, it was better to approach them
with some kind of benefit in hand.
It was the presence of affection that was most infuriating.
Malcolm left after dinner.
Nathan was waiting in the car. When Malcolm got into the vehicle, he had a smile and seemed to be in a
good mood.
“Let’s go.
“Yes, my lord.”
It seemed like… everything had been settled.
This time, the Jarvis family couldn’t escape from Malcolm. They had to agree, whether they liked it or not.
There were still three months left.
It had to be said that Malcolm had always been adept at turning the tide. Initially, he had been focused on what the fifth and fourth lords were doing. Suddenly, he had involved himself with the Jarvis family.
Victory seemed inevitable.
Just then, his phone vibrated. Malcolm glanced at the number before answering, “Hello.”
“It’s me.” Stephen’s voice came from the other end of the line.
The smile on Malcolm’s l*ps widened at this moment. “Mr. Jarvis.”
Malcolm sounded respectful, but there were other implications in his tone.
Even through the phone, Malcolm could feel the chilling aura from the other side.
Stephen might have expected Malcolm to retaliate, but not in this manner! In all his years In Simeria,
Stephen had always been the one causing others to suffer. He had never been on the receiving end!
So, it was inevitable that Stephen now felt some dissatisfaction.
“I’m waiting for you in Yarome,” Stephen said sharply.
“Sure.”
After Malcolm hung up the phone, the atmosphere in the car remained the same.
In fact, Malcolm’s smile widened.
“What happened, my lord?” Nathan asked with some concern.
After all, everyone knew that Stephen was a cunning fox.
Malcolm replied, “Even with such a commotion, he won’t easily let Natalie marry me.”
In other words, Stephen didn’t want to wade into the murky waters of the Entes family.
Over the years, many in the Entes family had tried to win over Stephen, but he had always maintained a
neutral stance.
No one had succeeded in persuading Stephen.
Stephen’s intentions were clear. His declaration of breaking ties with Natalie was just a move to force
Malcolm to retreat.
Hah. Malcolm took a deep breath.
The soothing feeling he felt now seemed to have eluded him for a long time.
Suddenly, a pair of stubborn and chilling eyes flashed in his mind.
She always looked at him with an undefeatable gaze, no matter how much he tormented her.
That woman… Bianca!
Malcolm had to admit that if it weren’t for what had happened, he actually really liked her.
But time he thought about how Bianca had used those sharp eyes to stare at Faye in the courtroom,
very
he wished he could gouge them out!
Shortly after Malcolm left, Isabella arrived!
Isabella–the woman who had always been a taboo in Natalie’s world.
Natalie’s expression darkened when the butler came in to announce Isabella’s presence.
“Miss, maybe you shouldn’t see her,” Lydia said with concern.
With everything happening around Natalie, Isabella coming here only further infuriated her.
Natalie glanced at Lydia and sighed. “Oh, you…”
“Aren’t you busy nowadays?”
“Do I look busy now?”
Natalie felt quite bored. Since she stopped working, she has been idle and has had nothing to do. Even though she had plenty of free time, she didn’t want to waste it on Isabella.
Outside Hillside Villa, Lily seemed relieved as she watched Isabella.
After all, it was the first time Isabella had taken the initiative to come see Natalie.
Previously, Isabella would resi

vehemently when Lily suggested it. She refused to cooperate and earned.
“Although Mr. Johnson isn’t in Simeria right now, the master always says we should still be cautious!”
Every time Cedric appeared somewhere, it was for Natalie’s sake.
Even though Cedric wasn’t in Simeria now, Lily still had to maintain her current vigilance.
Isabella listened to these words but remained cold.
“You can start thinking about how to marry him now,” Lily added.
Marry him?
Cedric?
At Lily’s words, Isabella felt a chill and anger in her heart.
Two years ago, Isabella had been unwilling to let Cedric go to prison. But at that time, Lily’s master had
mocked her.
Isabella could still sense how much Lily’s master influenced her life after hearing Lily’s words.
