no one come to

At this moment, she stood at the doorstep. She pressed the doorbell repeatedly, but no

answer.

Looking at the dark villa with no lights, she realized that Irwin probably hadn’t arrived yet.

As the cold wind blew, she felt a chill running through her b*dy. Taking out her phone, she dialed Irwin’s

number.

Beep!

The phone rang continuously until it automatically hung up, and still no one answered.

Natalie adjusted her coat. Suddenly, there was a weight on her shoulder. It was Leon!

“It’s quite cold.”

A black windbreaker draped over her, and he said, “It’s quite cold.”

The man didn’t say much, and Natalie nodded without refusing. She was indeed feeling cold; perhaps it

was due to changes in her b*dy.

During this period, she would shiver at the slightest breeze.

In her previous life, Scarlet Villa went up in flames shortly after she learned about her pregnancy. Looking back now, she had already forgotten what it felt like for a woman to be pregnant.

But now, she could feel the changes in her b*dy.

Natalie called repeatedly, but Irwin didn’t answer. Natalie stood at his villa gate for a full two hours. Her b*dy was getting stiff from the cold, and the man she had an appointment with hadn’t returned.

Leon stayed by her side, watching her shiver even with his coat wrapped around her.

He rarely spoke but finally couldn’t help but say, “Let’s go back, alright?”

“Leon!”

“Yes, ma’am”

“Find out where he is!”

Natalie’s voice trembled, partly from the cold.

Irwin was not someone who would break his word. If they had an appointment, he wouldn’t just fail to
