Irwin smoked several cigarettes under the dim light, seemingly easing the heaviness in his chest.

Then, he pulled out his phone to call Cedric.

Soon, Cedric answered. "Hello."

"It's time," Irwin said.

"When are you coming back?" Cedric asked.

At this moment, both of their tones were eerily calm.

It was truly ironic!

Over the years, there had always been tension between Irwin and Cedric! There was never peace between them.

Everything stemmed from Blair, and now it was alleviated because of Natalie!

However, this peace only made their hearts tighten.

"You... should come and pick her up," Irwin said.

As he uttered these words, the air instantly quieted. Their breaths over the phone grew heavier!

He asked Cedric to pick up Natalie?!

What was his intention?

"For the surgery... I'll do it!" Irwin declared.

Cedric remained silent.

The atmosphere became tense!

As Irwin said those words, it seemed like he had used up all his strength. Without waiting for Cedric's response, he abruptly ended the call.

In the dimness, a cold and desolate aura surrounded Irwin.

He was wrong... he was truly wrong!

In the end, the only thing he got right was his understanding of Wexford. Wexford was like quicksand, but in the end, it engulfed him and Cedric.

Then, Irwin dragged Natalie into it!

If he owed anyone...!

Between him and Cedric, Irwin was the one who owed Natalie more.

Natalie and Cedric might have been fine if it weren't for these conspiracies and schemes!
