The dinner didn't take long because Michael was wary of vampires loitering around. He didn't want to risk everyone's life so they all went back to their respective homes around nine in the evening. On their way back, Irene chose to go back in a taxi. Seeing this opportunity, Serina told them to bring Natalya with them while Corrine and the kids go home with her and Nicholas.
Irene knew what her daughter was trying to do and she wasn't against it but she was still hesitating to speak with Natalya. If someone knows her origin, something bad will happen to Serina. She will be the target of all clans all over the world and she can't do that.
Natalya sat at the backseat with Irene and Michael sat beside the driver. He erected an illusionary barrier between them and the driver to make sure that the driver won't know anything of what they talked.
