Chapter 290 But I Mind

When Irwin arrived, he saw Natalie and Stephen coming out of the airport together.

Both Stephen and Natalie were momentarily stunned when they noticed Irwin, especially Stephen, whose eyes revealed a hidden turmoil,

“Did you call Irv?” Stephen asked.

“N–no, I didn’t,” Natalie replied stiffly.

She was also wondering how Irwin found out. According to the unspoken understanding between her and Stephen, her whereabouts during this past half month would have been kept tightly sealed.

But now, Irwin suddenly appeared, indicating that he knew she was returning tonight.

“I thought Uncle wouldn’t come to pick you up, so I came.” Irwin’s tone remained gentle when he spoke.

He looked graceful, dressed in a sleek black windbreaker. His appearance drew the attention of many girls in the bustling airport.

Natalie glanced at her uncle and then said, “Uncle?”

“You can take Irv’s car,” Stephen said. His emotions were hidden, and he revealed none of his true feelings.

Natalie nodded.

After all, it was late, and Irwin had come directly here for her. She had been thinking about how to avoid him this whole time.

However, such obvious avoidance was something she couldn’t quite manage.

In the end, Natalie got into Irwin’s car.

In the back seat, he reached for her cold hand and frowned. “Why are your hands so cold?”

“The air conditioning on the plane was a bit low You don’t need to worry too much,” Natalie replied calmly. She changed the subject and asked, “How did you know I was coming back today?”

“This is Simeria. It’s not hard for me if I want to find out something,” Irwin said.

Natalie was silent.

She had no response to Irwin’s statement. Although Irwin was always low–key in Simeria, Natalie knew that the hidden power within him surpassed several significant families.
