Chapter 340 How is She Now?

Inside the study room at Maple Peak, Yves and Dylan were both present.

Under the dim lights, the atmosphere in the room was chilling.

“Wexford?” A strong sense of danger flashed in Irwin’s eyes.

Who would have thought that Cedric had suddenly left Simeria and returned to Wexford?

And for what reason did he go there ahead of everyone else?

Could the person in Wexford be in critical condition?

For years, that person had placed everything on Cedric’s father. Now, with Cedric returning to Wexford

ahead of everyone else, what did it signify?

Had Cedric been chosen as the successor for the impending transition?

When Irwin thought about this, the coldness in his eyes deepened.

“Yes, sir,” Yves said with a serious expression.

Irwin sneered with a level of coldness rarely seen from the usually dignified and serious man.

The next moment, he instructed, “Summon Jeremy, Adrian, and Roland!”

It was apparent that something significant had happened in Wexford.

Over the years, that person had maintained control over everything in Wexford! It seemed he wasn’t

willing to let go of things that didn’t belong to him, even in death!

“Understood,” Yves replied and left.

Dylan looked at Irwin solemnly and said, “Mr. Johnson’s return to Wexford this time is probably related

to

the deteriorating condition of that person.”

Dylan had always been by Irwin’s side, and he seemed to sense the gravity of the situation.

At that moment, a sharp glint appeared in Irwin’s eyes.

“It’s highly likely, yes,” Irwin said.

For so many years, the person in control of Wexford had always been someone from the Johnson

family.

Now, the person had likely called Cedric to return.

But

Since the Johnson family had always been in control, wasn’t it time for them to step down?

“How is she now?” Irwin asked in a chilly tone.

He was referring to Natalie.

Dylan furrowed his brows, “The Jarvis family must be having a headache right now.”

“Yes, that’s true,” Irwin agreed.

Stephen had always been a cautious person,

maintaining independence and respect in Simeria. Many had

tried to establish connections with him and the Jarvis family, but he had never accepted.

This time, however, Malcolm had forcefully involved himself with them.

“What should we do?” Dylan asked hesitantly.

Irwin had always favored Natalie, but this time…

Irwin looked at Dylan and said, “I have my plans.”

Dylan didn’t know what kind of plans Irwin had made. After all, Irwin was a person of profound depth

and insight. Even those who had been with him for many years might be unable to fathom his thoughts.

Irwin’s slender fingers rhythmically tapped on the desk. Then he said, “The more chaotic Simerial

becomes now, the better it is for us.”

Dylan nodded.

After all, if Malcolm and Stephen learned about the critical condition of that person in Wexford, their

attention would also shift.

For now, it was good that only Cedric had received the news and returned to Wexford.

Not long after, Yves brought the people Irwin wanted.

Roland looked at Irwin with a hint of gravity. The atmosphere in Simeria now seemed unusual, and they

could clearly feel something was wrong.

Beneath this chaotic surface, it seemed like an even greater storm was waiting for them.

Two hours passed, and no one knew what these people discussed in the study.

After the meeting ended, each of them had a solemn expression when they left the room.

Jeremy Flynn was the first to leave. As Adrian Lindsey and Roland exited the room together, they

exchanged a serious glance.

Adrian said, “Irwin is probably going back to Wexford.”

“Yeah.” Roland nodded with a displeased expression.

Over the years, there had been more than one occasion when unfavorable news emanated from

Wexford.

Yet, Irwin had never taken any action.

However,

years.

Cedric was suddenly summoned to Wexford this time, disrupting the stability of the past many

So, it was almost certain that Irwin would head to Wexford soon!

“During this time, let’s pay more attention to Simeria and make sure his plans proceed smoothly,”

Roland

said seriously.

Adrian nodded. “Yeah.”

With the situation reaching this point, it seemed that everything hidden in the shadows was being

completely exposed in an instant…

And those involved could no longer expect to escape unscathed.

So, what about Natalie?

She was a woman who had been entangled from the beginning and unharmed for so many years.

What kind of turning point would she face this time?

Lily was a person who executed tasks swiftly. After Isabella returned to Morina Hotel, Rebecca arrived

half an hour later.

In the hotel room, only Isabella and Rebecca were present.

Rebecca frowned as she looked at the frail woman before her. There was a fleeting moment of pity in

her

eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

Rebecca was never a kind–hearted person. Since Cedric’s father passed away, her world had become

hardened, void of any weaknesses.

She became a woman who was only firmly interested in benefits, fully embodying the demeanor of an

affluent lady.

It made people both disgusted and awed.

“I agree to your terms,” Isabella calmly said while looking in Rebecca’s direction.

When Rebecca heard this, she smiled. “In that case, none of us will continue to have any difficulties.”

Isabella’s face, which was already somewhat pale, grew even paler.

Yes, her existence was indeed a source of trouble for everyone.

Now, everyone could be free from such difficulties.

Wasn’t that great?

“However…” Isabella paused, and Rebecca stiffened.

Rebecca’s smile vanished, and a cold glint appeared in her eyes. “Speak up. What are your additional

conditions?”

Rebecca could sense that Isabella had additional demands in the way she spoke. She already had

everything arranged for Isabella. Of course, Rebecca was willing to agree to any of Isabella’s additional

requests as long as she left Cedric.

Isabella took a deep breath and said, “I need you to get someone to help me leave this place right

away!”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m… Someone is controlling me!” Isabella responded.

“What?”

Rebecca was taken aback.

Could it be…?

Before Rebecca could comprehend the situation, Isabella continued, “None of the people here are

Cedric’s people. Haven’t you noticed?”

Rebecca froze.

Indeed, they were unfamiliar faces, but she never paid much attention to these people.

Now that Isabella mentioned it, the severity of the situation became apparent

Rebecca questioned coldly, “Whose people are they?”

“That’s… Isabella hesitated.

Thinking about the terrifying person behind her, she swallowed the words at the tip of her tongue.

She had already caused enough harm to Natalie in this lifetime, and she didn’t want to involve more

people.

If Isabella could successfully break free this time, it would be great. If not, she didn’t want to drag

Rebecca into it

After a moment of contemplation, Isabella finally said, “They won’t stop you from taking me away. Just

use the usual excuses.”
