When the person at the other end of the line agreed, Stanley let out a devious smile before ending the call. He then chucked his phone by the side.
He wasn’t going to allow anyone to harm Nat. Anyone who did so would be severely punished, including the woman who wanted to take Nat’s life. He swore to make her suffer miserably for her actions.
He was the only one allowed to bully Nat. Sooner or later, he endeavored to make Nat his obedient puppet, someone that will acquiesce to him her entire life.
Oblivious to Stanley’s machinations, Natalie led the children to a car stopped by the roadside.
Shane was in the driver’s seat. The moment he saw the three of them, he unlocked the door at the back.
Natalie opened it and ushered the children into the car.
The moment they got in, they noticed Shane and called out warmly, “Mr. Shane.”
Shane acknowledged them with a gentle grunt.
Opening the front passenger’s seat door, Natalie entered and put on her seatbelt. She turned to the back and looked at the kids. “Alright now, both of you. Sit tight as Mr. Shane will be driving us.”
“Okay.” Both children sat obediently without moving.
With that, Shane drove them to the police station and it took them ten minutes to get there.
As Natalie had Shane stay back and watch the children, she entered the police station to hand in her injury evaluation report.
Having done so, she thought of heading to the interrogation room to check on both Susan and Jasmine.
Just when she was outside the room, she heard Susan’s terrified sobs. “Darling, please think of a way to save me and Jas.”
“Save? Can you even tell me how I am supposed to do that?” Harrison’s angry voice rang out as he banged his hands on the table. “Why don’t you reflect on what both of you have done? Jas has done something catastrophic to her career by plagiarizing!”
