Chapter 513 All Because of Her
Genuine?
When Irwin uttered those words for Cedric, Natalie laughed. Her laughter was icy and dripping
with sarcasm.
“Is anything you two tell me even real or genuine anymore?”
Genuine?
What was genuine?
After years of lying, one would even start to believe in their own falsehoods.
Wasn’t that the case with Irwin and Cedric?
Genuine… hah!
“What exactly were you three to each other?” Natalie’s tone was chillingly cold, sending shivers down one’s spine.
Irwin fell silent, unable to respond.
What had they been to each other?
In that fleeting moment, profound pain surged in his eyes. It vanished as quickly as it came, replaced by a stoic calm.
“Never mind. As I said, I’ll unravel everything, bit by bit!”
She repeated the words she had said moments ago. Her teeth clenched, her voice dripping with venom and resentment, causing anyone who heard it to wince.
Irwin looked deep into her eyes. At that moment, the emptiness in his heart felt more profound than ever before.
She was…!
This was why, despite their intense animosity toward each other, neither Irwin nor Cedric ever let their true feelings surface in front of Natalie.
They never used it against each other, knowing full well the devastating impact it would have
on Cedric if Natalie were to find out.
Cedric also knew it.
So, while Cedric and Irwin harbored animosity towards each other, they never let it affect this particular matter.

Irwin handed Natalie her phone. His eyes betrayed a mix of emotions, but Natalie snatched the phone from him with force.
Irwin remained silent.
In front of him, Natalie dialed Casey’s number. Just as she started the call, Irwin spoke before
she could.
“Casey isn’t in Wexford.”
“How swift you are with your information!” Natalie’s voice dripped with irony.
Irwin remained silent.
When had it begun? Every time something related to her came up, he was always the first to
know.
The call went through.
Casey’s respectful voice came through, “Miss.”
“You’re not in Wexford?”
“I’ve sent the information to your email,” Casey replied calmly, having discerned Natalie’s tone from the other end of the line.
Natalie responded, “Alright.”
Then, she promptly ended the call.
Irwin had been by her side all this while.
Natalie moved to a nearby sofa and opened her mobile email. Numerous recent emails were displayed, but she scrolled down until she found Casey’s email.
The moment she opened it, she sensed the subtle change in the man’s breathing from a
distance.
The email contained detailed information, spanning over ten pages. Clearly, Casey had meticulously organized and explained the entire situation.
Half an hour passed, and Irwin remained rooted in place while Natalie sat calmly on the sofa.
However, the tension was palpable, with Irwin’s anxiety reaching its peak.
Observing Natalie’s serene demeanor, he understood that beneath that composed exterior, her
heart was anything but tranquil.

Finally, Natalie broke the silence with a chilling laugh. “Hah.”
Irwin remained silent.
“Remarkable… Truly!” Natalie continued, her eyes fixed on the screen of her phone where a particular photo caught her attention–undoubtedly the subject of the information, Blair Russell.
She looked up at Irwin, and the calmness in her eyes vanished, replaced by a storm of
emotions.
The emotions that surged within her were unleashed like a beast–sarcasm, icy coldness, danger–all converging in a malevolent gaze directed at Irwin.
“Blair?” Natalie waved her phone, the photo on the screen nearly causing her to mistake it for
herself.
The resemblance was uncanny.
Blair and Natalie.
They were two distinct individuals but entangled with the same person.
What kind of spark would this collision create?
A decade…!
She remembered her feelings during the time with Isabella, now realizing how ludicrous they
had been.
It wasn’t just laughable.
It was something more.
“Nat,” Irwin approached swiftly, taking long strides until he was beside her.
Then, he lifted her from the sofa and pulled her into his embrace.
