Chapter 257 Approaching Good Times

In a towering office building in Simeria, Natalie’s petite figure remained unchanged. There was now a sharpness and weariness of life’s twists and turns present on her delicate cheeks

She emerged from the elevator in professional attire with a pair of glasses on her face, and she presented a composed and capable demeanor.

Accompanied by several assistants, she walked and gave instructions to Karina, who led the group.

Karina took note of everything as they walked.

One of the secretaries approached Natalie respectfully, “Ms. Walker, Mr. Frazier is here. He’s been waiting for a while and didn’t want to disturb you with a phone call.”

Upon hearing that Irwin was here, Natalie’s usually strict work attitude instantly softened, and a smile spread on her lips.

She closed a folder and handed it to Karina, saying “Go to the meeting room first.”

“Yes, Ms. Walker.” Karina took the folder and left.

Natalie strode toward her office, and her assistants returned to their respective positions.

The secretary pushed open Natalie’s office door.

Inside, a broad–shouldered figure stood by the French windows. Natalie’s smile deepened at the sight. As

she entered, the door closed behind her. When the man turned to look at her, there was nothing but

indulgence in his eyes.

“Are you done with work?”

Watching Natalie approach, Irwin habitually opened his arms for her.

Even after two whole years, Natalie still felt somewhat unaccustomed to the man’s gentle and warm

attitude.

Raising an eyebrow, she walked to the sofa and sipped water from the cup in front of her.

Observing her familiar reaction, Irwin didn’t find it awkward. On the contrary, his smile became even more tender and indulgent.

Looking at her drinking without any defense, he chuckled, “That’s the cup I’ve used.”
