As the final days approached, it became increasingly agonizing for Irwin.

Natalie could almost feel how suffocated Irwin was. It was a testament to the torment he endured.

Yet, in the face of Irwin's torment, Natalie remained silent.

"Do you feel anything?" Irwin's emotions were barely concealed in his words.

"No," Natalie replied, her response unchanged.

It was unclear how many times Irwin had asked this question during this time, just as Natalie didn't

know how many times she had replied with the same answer.

As she finished speaking, Natalie keenly sensed the urgency emanating from the man.

Natalie naturally didn't know why Irwin was feeling this way.

After breakfast, Irwin made a phone call from his study. It was an hour-long conversation whose

recipient remained unknown.

When he emerged, the gravity in his demeanor was obvious.

"I'm taking you somewhere," Irwin said after taking a deep breath.

"Where to?" Natalie's response was calm compared to the depth in Irwin's tone.

"The city hall," Irwin replied.

Natalie fell silent.

Lydia and Xyla exchanged nervous glances before turning their attention back to Natalie. She sat in her

wheelchair, and her hands unconsciously clenched.

In the end, she chuckled.

Her laughter dripped with irony.

"I know you're worried about me using your father. Don't worry, I won't use anyone this time," Irwin

assured.

"Is that so?" Natalie's question dripped with sarcasm, amplifying the discomfort already festering within
