Chapter 371 Responsibility and Burden

Tuming around, Clyde returned to Stephen’s office.

Stephen observed Clyde holding the thermal container Natalie had carried.

“What did she say to you just now?”

Clearly, Stephen had seen everything through the blinds.

Thinking of the words Natalie had whispered in his ear just now, Clyde’s expression darkened.

“You guys found me, yet you don’t believe me?”

Stephen stiffened at his words, and then he sighed.

Taking a deep breath, he spoke with some helplessness, “You need to understand her. She’s been under a lot of pressure since she returned two years ago. Everything around her is unfamiliar, and she has become extremely cautious.”

Clyde furrowed his brows. After arriving in Simeria, he investigated every member of the Jarvis family, including Natalie.

In Verde City, she had been like a caged bird. Cedric had taken care of her since college. She was a housewife who had struggled to stand on her own feet after being betrayed by her husband.

The bitterness and pain involved in this process were only known to those who had experienced it.

However, Natalie didn’t stay down for long. She had moved fast and stood taller than anyone else in her

situation.

Especially in the last two years when Stephen’s health wasn’t good, she almost single–handedly

shouldered everything.

Only in the dead of night, when she could remove the disguise she wore during the day in front of others. and put on her cute pajamas, could she show her vulnerability in her own space.

About Wexford…” Stephen hesitated, looking at Clyde with uncertainty.

Clyde’s brows furrowed even more deeply.

He then said, “I’m sorry.

Stephen was silent, and his heart tightened when he heard Clyde’s words.

Clyde continued, “I’m afraid I can’t share her burdens in all of this.

Cly!

“I can understand your concerns, but I’m sorry!”

Sorry?

Sorry for what?!
