Chapter 260 Their Own Secrets
Stephen’s words did alleviate Natalie’s tension.
Over the past two years, Stephen’s approval of her and Irwin had put some pressure on her.
As Stephen mentioned, she had been hurt…!!
Natalie was cautious and even resistant to many things deep within.
They all knew those were Natalie’s wounds, and the fact that she could suppress them without erupting
showed she could handle it and let go.
But letting go didn’t mean the wounds were healed.
She needed time.
“Thank you, Uncle, Natalie said to Stephen.
Stephen nodded, handing her the book he had taken from her. “Were you looking for this book?”
“Yeah,” Natalie replied and took it.
In the cast
two years, she had very little time for reading. Since she returned early today, she wanted to
spend some time reading.
“I won’t disturb you any longer, Uncle, she said, waving the book and leaving the room.
Stephen’s smile dropped when Natalie turned around, and his eyes sharpened instantly.
Natalie returned to her room with the book. However, her enthusiasm just now evaporated after noticing
the obvious changes between them tonight.
Bang!
She slammed the book onto the low table. Pulling out her phone, she walked to the window and dialed a
number. The call was quickly picked up.
“Hello!”
“Help me investigate someone.
“Who do you want to investigate?
“Irwin Frazier.”
