Connor understood what his parents were worried about upon seeing their stern expressions. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Mommy, Daddy. I won’t.”
“Very well, then.” Natalie took him into her arms and caressed his hair lovingly.
Shane stood up and gazed at his bodyguards. “Send some men to search the university town and see if the car is still there. If it is, use Jacqueline’s photo to ask around about her. She has an oriental-looking face. I’m sure the people who live in that area will more or less remember her.”
“Understood.” The bodyguards nodded in response and left to execute the order.
Natalie grabbed Shane’s hand and asked, “Shane, why do you think Jacqueline showed up today? And what’s more, she showed up at the jewelry market. She wouldn’t visit the place to buy jewelry, would she?”
“No, Mommy.” Shaking his head in response, Connor clicked the “enter” button on the computer to open a video. “This is the security footage of the jewelry market, where Jacqueline showed up today. Based on the footage, she went to the place half an hour after you guys arrived. Ever since then, she had been keeping an eye on the shop that you visited.”
“Baby, are you trying to say that’s she targeting me?” Natalie frowned.
Shane narrowed his eyes and explained, “To be exact, she showed up on purpose so that you would notice her.”
“Why?” Natalie pursed her lips, confused. “She’s been hiding and has never shown up for a long time. Why did she show up all of a sudden and make sure that I saw her?”
“It’s still a mystery. However, the only thing I’m certain about is that they are on to something. Who knows? Sean might be the next to show up.” Shane tapped the table as he made a guess.
Natalie felt her head throb. “What are they up to?”
“Well, we have to be vigilant regardless of what they intend to do. Since the finals are around the corner, we can’t afford any accidents,” Shane said with a stern face.
Natalie nodded and replied, “I understand.”
At night, Natalie and Shane returned to their bedroom after tucking their kids in.
Leaning against the head of the bed, Shane read the finance report on his tablet, while Natalie scrolled through her phone to watch some funny videos.
“Ouch!” Natalie put down her phone abruptly and touched her belly.
“What is it?” Thinking that something was wrong, Shane put down the tablet and turned around to check up on her.
