Chapter 453 His Gentleness
Regret?!
When Natalie heard those words, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. “How rare of you to play the role of the good guy again!”
Irwin was silent.
This was unexpectedl
Her habit of bringing up old matters was truly exasperating.
Irwin hadn’t done anything regrettable in his life, but when it came to Natalie, he now felt…
remorseful.
“But there’s no need for that. I have my reasons for accompanying you to Wexford. I won’t… regret
it.”
She emphasized the last few words in a firm tone
Indeed.
She wouldn’t regret it.
If it was difficult to resolve things peacefully, she would simply avoid it
“Nat, you don’t have to see me in such a negative light,” Irwin said, his gaze deep and penetrating.
He was referring to her previous words about how rare it was for him to play the role of a good guy
again.
Natalie took a sip from her glass of lemon water.
It was sour.
Without responding to Irwin, she gazed out at the clouds outside, seemingly ignoring his earlier
words.
Her silence made Irwin feel somewhat exasperated.
She had just left… and already, a part of her yearned for her daughter.

Bianca’s spine
She looked at his unflinching profile. At that moment, her heart seemed to collide with an invisible force, causing her emotions to waver uncontrollably
Her heartbeat accelerated at their proximity
She recalled the time when Malcolm had trapped her, subjecting her to endless humiliation
These were the things she least wanted to do
Once upon a time, the was so brilliant in her career that she even had an assistant prepare her coffee. She never had to do menial tasks.
She had shone so brightly, but Malcolm was determined to drag her into the deepest abyss.
In the end he had succeeded.
Habits truly were terrifying No matter how she resisted Malcolm, the things he imposed on her… had become ingressed over time
“You went to the hospital again?” Zane asked casually as he led Bianca to sit on a nearby couch, lighting up a cigar with an air of indifference.
Observing his graceful and elegant demeanor, Bianca found herself surprisingly unbothered by
the scent of this gar
Once, when Malcolm blew smoke rings into her face, she had despised the smell, even feeling
But now
She simply nodded, “Yeah”
“You shouldn’t go there anymore”
Lord Zane, our relationship is-”
Though we have a business arrangement, I also have to ensure your safety. He’s now…” Zane trailed off, his gaze turning sharper as he looked into Bianca’s eyes.
She understood the implications of his unspoken words.
With your backing, he’d have to consider the entire Entes family even if he wants to harm me,
right?
