Chapter 343 Forcing the Marriage
They had all left.
All of a sudden, everyone was gone!
That night, Natalie didn’t sleep a wink at Hillside Villa. She knew better than anyone else what she
would
face after daybreak.
Putting aside Cedric… Irwin and Stephen have been in Simeria all this time.
No o
one would pay too much attention if they were gone for only a few days.
But what if it was a long time?
And things would be especially bad for her. She was the niece that Stephen had just severed ties with.
When she suddenly returned to Regal Horizons International, what kind of ruckus would that cause?!
Wexford…
What does it mean to them, and what does it mean to her?!
At this point, she probably knew Irwin and Cedric had dragged her into the heart of this matter.
Last night, she didn’t directly confront Irwin. However, she only maintained a pitiful and laughable
dignity
on the surface…!
Back when she had gotten together with Cedric, had he approached her deliberately with a purpose in
mind?
She didn’t know!
But Irwin definitely made her understand that there were no wholeheartedly good people in the world.
The repeated rescues Irwin made in Verde City were nothing more than a long–planned approach!
She wasn’t thinking this way because of a sudden realization or anything, but rather… it was because
she
now knew that none of those people were good.
When Natalie woke up, she felt dizzy. Lydia and Xyla were worried when they saw Natalie in this state.
“Miss, why is your complexion so bad?!”
“I didn’t sleep well,” Natalie said bluntly.
In just one night, Simeria underwent earth–shaking changes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf she didn’t handle it carefully in the time to come, who knew what kind of mess would happen?
How could Natalie sleep at a time like this?
The whole night, she was thinking about how to deal with things from today onwards.
“Miss, Madam has already said you need to rest well,” Lydia said in a worried tone.
Natalie felt her head ache at the mention of Heather. When it came to Natalie’s health, she was most
worried that Heather had been right all along.
le over.”
She took a deep breath and said, “Have Wendy and Julian come
“Alright.” Lydia went downstairs to make the call.
Natalie took a seat at the breakfast table and drank a glass of milk. Once she was done, she felt her
spirits lifting a little.
After thinking all night, she still felt that she couldn’t go directly back to Regal Horizons International
now!
Whatever happens, she would deal with it here first. She would wait until she couldn’t hide away
anymore
before thinking about her next step!
However…
In the morning, the calm she wanted to maintain was broken by Malcolm’s arrival!
The two sat under the wooden pavilion amidst the lingering fragrance of tea. Then, the man suddenly.
asked, “Where did your uncle and Irwin go last night?”
Natalie remained silent. However, she stiffened at his words, causing the tea in her hand to spill onto
the
table before her.
Obviously, Natalie didn’t expect Malcolm to be so sensitive.
Stephen had just left, and Malcolm had already harbored suspicions.
What would happen next?
The man looked at the spilled tea on the intricately carved tea table, and the look in his eyes
intensified.
The smile on his lips also widened.
Natalie took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in her heart. Then, she calmly said, “Something
Her response was somewhat reasonable.
re apparent
After all, the distance between Stephen and Irwin had become during this period, and she
didn’t believe that Malcolm was unaware of it.
In such a situation, it seemed logical that Natalie wouldn’t know Irwin’s whereabouts.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Natalie asked.
Malcolm remained silent for a long time after Natalie finished speaking and continued to stare deeply at
her.
Natalie complained inwardly. She knew what this rotten man was thinking. She hoped he wouldn’t pull
anything funny at this time.
Looking at his eagle–like eyes, Natalie knew that… she might not be able to fend him off if he did
anything!
Regardless of the chaos in Wexford, Natalie was now praying that Stephen would return quickly
Malcolm was truly terrifying!
“Look at you. You look guilty at your own words!” Malcolm laughed with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Natalie was speechless, and her back instantly broke into a cold sweat. Malcolm’s words were like a
direct hit to the heart.
Such a person is not just terrifying. He was beyond that!
Natalie could already imagine what Bianca had endured when she had been in Malcolm’s hands.
Putting aside the ruthless methods he had, his words alone were enough to make people suffer.
Especially the degrading numbering that Malcolm had called Bianca…!!
Only a guy like Malcolm could come up with that.
“I’m not guilty of anything.” Natalie said somewhat angrily.
“You’re still so stubborn!”
“You…”
“Never mind. It’s good that they’re gone anyway!” Malcolm continued vaguely before Natalie could
finish
her sentence.
His words gave Natalie a bad feeling.
Then, he said, “Three days later is a good day. Shall we get our marriage certificate first?”
Natalie’s mind went blank for a moment after hearing his words. Last night, she had already thought
about this.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Stephen wasn’t around, would Malcolm take the opportunity to force a marriage?
Now, she also knew what this marriage meant to Malcolm.
Knowing was one thing, but it happening so quickly was another.
She took a deep breath, trying to remain calm as she said, “My uncle cannot agree to your request.
Even if we get married, you won’t get what you want.”
“I don’t care.”
“What?”
“I just want you. You’re quite interesting.”
Stephen was a sly old fox. He would remain stubborn and unyielding no matter the situation.
However, Malcolm thought keeping Natalie by his side would be a good idea. Over the years, the Entes
family had suffered quite a bit under Stephen’s control.
So, even if Malcolm didn’t want anything, it was good enough for him if he could make Stephen suffer
some losses!
Natalie was speechless. “You…!”
She didn’t have any words for him right now!
The man chuckled as he stood up and looked at Natalie with deep eyes..
He turned around to leave but suddenly stopped as if he remembered something. He turned back to
Natalie and lifted her chin with his slender fingers.
The distance between them was too close, and the man’s warm breath sprayed on her cheek.
Natalie subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but the man held her chin firmly!
His grip was painful, and she glared at him fiercely.
Malcolm’s smile deepened. “You don’t look impressive at all. Your face is too pale, you know? You
need
to get out more and get more sun when you’re at my side!”
Without waiting for her response, Malcolm threw her aside with a laugh.
He seemed to be in a good mood, but Natalie’s face turned stormy!
Get out and get more sun…?!
Just the fact that she had been with him at the airport and the banquet had already stirred up so many
rumors. Natalie knew that countless women had started to resent her because of it.
If she went out more while she was together with him, she was sure a horde of women would be
waiting
to beat her up!
Malcolm was really a malicious man!
