Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 397

Harrison suddenly called her. He must be calling me because of the press conference earlier today.

Knowing that there was a chance that the call would turn ugly, she asked her kids to leave.

Connor saw the incoming call on Natalie’s phone. Mommy won’t let us listen to this. Sighing, he pulled Sharon back to their room.

Natalie only picked up the call after the room door was closed. “Mr. Smith, can I help you with something?”

“You ungrateful child!” Harrison bellowed through the phone. Undertones of weakness in his voice made him sound a lot less imposing than he intended.

Natalie picked up the remote and switched off the TV. She answered nonchalantly, “Mr. Smith, if I were an ungrateful child, what does that make you? A horrible father?”

“Y-You,” Harrison stuttered with anger at her words. He took in several deep breaths before he was able to suppress his rage. He asked fiercely, “Why did you reveal Jasmine’s real identity at the press conference?”

“Because you forced me to,” Natalie replied lightly, flicking her nails.

Ah, my nails are getting a little too long. I should invite Joyce to get a new manicure with me tomorrow.

“I forced you?” Harrison choked on his words. Her reply invoked a sense of déjà vu; didn’t he say the same thing to her yesterday when she called him about the rumors he’d spread of her and Shane on the Internet?

How dare she used my words against me!

“Of course you did. You used public outcry to pressure me to drop my charges against Susan and falsify my testimony against Jasmine. Frankly, I’ve run out of options, and this is my only way out.” Shrugging, Natalie expressed her helplessness.

Harrison found himself at a loss for words. His face twitched with anger as he yelled, “Fine, you are right. But did you think about how your actions are going to affect the Smith family and the Smith Group? The stock prices for the Smith Group are falling like mad!”

Natalie moved the phone slightly further from her ear as she replied, “Mr. Smith, surely you’re joking. The stock prices fell because of you. None of this would’ve happened if you didn’t cheat on my mom in the past. Also, it doesn’t bother me if the stock prices fall. In fact, I hope it falls so low you’re forced to declare bankruptcy!”
