Chapter 160

Originally, Nathan was going to accompany Irene back to the country. However, the previous incident at the factory had disrupted his plan; one of the disobliging workers had filed a lawsuit against him. As the defendant, he wasn't allowed to leave the country. Nathan was distraught; he had no choice but to call Jordan. Jordan jumped up in anger when he heard Nathan tell him that Margaret had brought Eden back to the country secretly. "For God's sake, what's wrong with you? Didn't you promise me that you would protect Irene and Eden? How could you let that crazy woman snatch Eden away?"

"It's my fault. I had never for the life of me expected Edric's mother to come all the way here. I'm worried about Irene going back to the country alone. On top of that, Eden's health is at stake. Please help Irene. After I'm done handling some work stuff, I'll rush over immediately." Nathan felt culpable as well. Joanne was the one who had started all this. If she had not revealed to Edric about Eden's identity, Margaret would never have come to Mencodia and taken Eden away. Now that Eden was in such a vulnerable state, if his condition worsened and something befell him, Irene would be devastated for sure, and Nathan would never be able to forgive himself.

"Alright, I got it. I will keep an eye on Irene and help her get Eden back. The Myers are so despicable! This time, I will make sure to show them what I'm made of."

Jordan knew that Nathan wasn't solely to blame for this matter. If anything, Joanne was the one to be held accountable. This fiancee of his had earned her way deeper into his contempt, and he deeply regretted how rash he had been with making that three-year promise to her. Right then, he wasn't even aware of the fact that Joanne was the one who had spurred Margaret into abducting Eden back to Haverland. If he did, his boiling blood would probably erupt in rage.

Nathan thanked Jordan and hung up the phone. After thinking for a while, he called Kinsey. He asked her to pick up Irene at the airport if she was available and accompany her to find Eden.

After everything was arranged, Nathan returned home. Britney was waiting restlessly at home. When she saw Nathan, she immediately asked, "How is it going? I heard from Joanne that Eden was taken away by

Margaret. Is it true?"

"It appears to be the case. John said that she brought two men and a child with her. The child's face was covered by a coat so he didn't manage to get a good look. It must be Eden. The two men are probably the doctors that she hired."

"Margaret is really quite something. How can she be so audacious?" Britney sighed. "After all, Eden is her grandson. How could she be so cruel?"

"Yes, she's awful!" Nathan sighed. "I was going to follow along, but I haven't settled the factory incident, so I had to ask Jordan for help. Once I'm done with that, I will go there immediately."

"Well, that's for the best. I'm really worried that Irene will not be able to deal with Margaret and Edric alone."

While they were busy discussing Irene and Eden, no one realized that Margaret's accomplice, Joanne was standing on the second floor, eavesdropping on their conversation.

The day before, she was so glad to see Edric and Irene leave the White family. She reckoned that she could finally heave a sigh of relief as Irene was finally getting what she deserved. She wanted Irene to tremble in fear; she knew what Eden meant to Irene. Now that Margaret had taken him away, Irene had no choice but to fight it out with Margaret to bring him back.

However, the Myers family was rich and powerful. There was no way Irene would be able to beat them. Unless she went to Steven for help. Now that would be exciting. Anyway, she had already promised Margaret that they would keep in touch so she could be kept in the loop about what was happening.

Just then, when she'd heard that Nathan had called Jordan to ask him to aid Irene, Joanne was smoldering with fury. She had been so close to rushing downstairs and taking her anger out on Nathan.

Nathan knew how enamored Joanne was with Jordan, but he did not consider her feelings at all. Instead, he had repeatedly asked Jordan to go to Irene's aids. Before this, she wasn't engaged to him yet. But now that she and Jordan were engaged, Nathan was a bit too much by asking Jordan to help Irene.

In addition, she had worked so hard to put this plan into motion, and it was only halfway done right now. She wasn't going to let Jordan ruin everything. She had to quickly book a ticket to return to Haverland. There was no way she was allowing Jordan to come into contact with Irene.
