Chapter 221 Graceful Confrontation
It was hard to imagine that this woman could remain so proud and upright despite all her malicious
deeds.
She
She even stood at the peak of life and flaunted her power and dominance.
Natalie stopped and turned around. There was a smirk that could kill on her lips.
“You’ve done so much just to make me beg, right? To see me submit to you!?”

“Cedric, I can stand in the spotlight at the summit, and naturally, I can gracefully face the fall. So all
your scheming to drag me into the mud won’t show you what you want!”
Her words were calm, and she spoke like a queen. It felt as if she were elevated and untouchable.
Yet, the person orchestrating all of this was still lurking in the shadows.
Natalie walked away.
Her proud figure was something she had been born with. She wouldn’t let anyone suppress her and
succeed!
After exiting Radiant Tower, Natalie called Stephen. Since something significant had happened,
Stephen. would undoubtedly be aware of it.
However, he hadn’t called her.
The call automatically disconnected.
There was no response from Stephen’s end.
Natalie’s heart tightened.
She sat on the sidewalk, feeling lost. In her mind, flashes of the final scenes from her previous life kept
reappearing. She even pondered on the meaning of her rebirth.
Though she had been full of pride before Cedric, deep down, alone, she had to admit her own misery.
It might not be as drastic as her previous life, where she had her vision taken away or burned alive in

Escape…!
That was her most instinctive thought now. Cedric was too crazy. He wouldn’t believe it even with
irrefutable evidence in front of him.
And his protection of Isabella has also reached a maniacal level!
To be retaliated against by such a madman undoubtedly made it feel like she was walking on a knife’s
edge…!
She even started to wonder if staying in Verde City at this moment was burning her life away. Was it
fundamentally contradicting the chance given to her by fate?
Perhaps the chance given to her by fate was to rid her world of Cedric.
But in an instant… Natalie dismissed all these thoughts. The chance she got was just a struggle
against
destiny.
Could she escape if she tried?
She couldn’t!
She had burdens to carry in Verde City, and she couldn’t simply leave just like that.
Natalie got into her car. She originally meant to go to Sylvan Gems but ended up at Apex Global.
She didn’t know why. In her extreme confusion, her hands steered her here. She then remembered she
had to give Irwin an explanation!
The receptionist still greeted her respectfully. However, when she reached the CEO’s office, Dylan’s
expression changed upon seeing her.
He quickly intercepted her and said, “Ms. Walker, things aren’t looking good right now. It’s better if you
don’t see him!”
“That wasn’t my blueprint!”
“Saying these things now is pointless. Mr. Frazier doesn’t want to hear them,” Dylan said.

This sentence plunged Natalie’s heart into the abyss.
Irwin wouldn’t want to hear it?
She didn’t blame him!
A huge accident had happened in the eastern suburbs, and the only relative he was close to in the
Frazier family had already.
All because of that project!
At this moment, Natalie also realized that Irwin probably wouldn’t want to see her.
Natalie looked at Dylan. He was probably the only person who could speak for her in front of Irwin now.
“Then, I won’t go in to see him.”
“Alright,” Dylan nodded.
He knew Natalie’s temper and genuinely feared that if she got angry, she might force her way in, which
wouldn’t be good for her.
But Natalie couldn’t help asking “How is he doing now?
“Not very well! He’s been single–mindedly focused on work! But the project in the eastern suburbs is
his
taboo now!”
The implication was that, regardless of the situation in the eastern suburbs, no one dared to mention it
in
front of Irwin.
Natalie’s face turned pale.
“In that case, can you tell him something for me if you get the chance?”
“…Alright!”
Dylan dared not promise her, but he also knew it wasn’t easy to pacify this lady.
Natalie said, “I compared the blueprints brought back from the scene with my own. It’s clear that
someone swapped the ones brought back!”
“…What?”
When Natalie mentioned that the blueprints had been swapped, Dylan couldn’t react.
He considered the project in the eastern suburbs, now at Apex Global, as a topic that couldn’t even be

“Let’s talk over here.” Dylan glanced around and led Natalle to a meeting room,
In the meeting room, Natalie explained the matter with the blueprints. As soon as the incident came to
light, she quickly conducted an inspection!
Too impatient to wait for an official examination, she had her people go to the scene to get the relevant
construction drawings and compare them, confirming that the blueprints had indeed been swapped.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe identity of the culprit who swapped the blueprints wasn’t hard to guess.
Dylan listened with his heart pounding. His expression became solemn.
“Wait for me here for a moment.”
ingroom.
After saying that, he left the meeting room.
Natalie knew Dylan was going to see Irwin.
As Dylan had said….
If this issue was a problem with her blueprints, then all the connections between her and Irwin would
cease since Stella was involved.
After a few minutes, Dylan returned. Natalie approached him and asked, “How did it go? Is Irwin willing
to
see me?”
Natalie thought Irwin was a very rational person who could achieve calm analysis in the face of any
situation,
So, she didn’t doubt he would do the same in this situation
But she was wrong.
Irwin could be rational at any time, but not when it came to the only relative, Stella.
Stella, the sister left to him by his mother–the most important person to him in the Frazier family.
Natalie looked at Dylan with hope, but Dylan shook his head and said, “Mr. Frazier has stated that,
regardless of the outcome, the relevant departments will investigate!”
The hope that had ignited in Natalie was completely extinguished at this moment.
So… Irwin didn’t believe her now?
She closed her eyes, her breath somewhat unsteady, “I have no grievances with him. I wouldn’t hurt
him,

“Ms. Walker, at this point, Mr. Frazier doesn’t even want to mention the eastern suburbs project!”
The issue lied there.
Whenever the eastern suburbs project was brought up, Irwin completely lost his rationality!
While that may be the case, Natalle couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
“You should go back for now, alright?”
“Yeah.”
Natalie wanted to see Irwin, but here with Irwin, she couldn’t handle things the way she did with Cedric.
Even though she didn’t design the blueprint… Stella really died because of her!
