“I see, then I’ll wait for you in the courthouse.” Natalie cast a sideways glance at the courthouse.
Yulia nodded. “Alright”
Natalie was about to look for a seat to wait when a breathy voice called out to her from behind. “Nat?”
Her good mood instantly vanished upon hearing that voice. She pursed her lips and turned around to see Harrison standing nearby, smiling at her.
Standing beside him was Susan, who was glaring at Natalie as though the latter had done something unforgivable.
Natalie could not care less about Susan’s thoughts. As such, she merely spared Susan a glance before she proceeded to ignore her. She then focused her gaze on Harrison.
Maybe I’m imagining things, but Harrison seems slightly older than the last time I saw him.
Susan probably had an ugly fight with him after Shane and I left Jasmine’s funeral.
Natalie smiled at her own thought.
Harrison thought she was flashing him a smile, so he straightened his back to appear taller.
Seems like this brat hasn’t given up on returning to the Smith Residence.
Harrison gave Natalie a kind smile at that thought. “Nat, what are you doing here?” His tone was gentle.
Natalie rolled her eyes at him inwardly. She replied with a cold tone, “Today is the day you and Mom go to court. As her daughter, it’s only natural that I’ll attend the hearing.”
Harrison was rendered speechless by her comment.
Susan clung to his arm and said impatiently, “Enough. Let’s head in.”
“What’s the rush?” Harrison’s face darkened as he withdrew his arm from Susan’s grasp.
Ever since Jasmine’s funeral, I can’t bear to even look at her now.
So it doesn’t matter whether we’re in a private or public venue, I don’t think I have the need to care for her reputation any further.
