“I see.” Natalie gripped tightly onto her blankets and sneered, “I can’t believe you would say something like this, Ms. Graham. You’re finally showing your true colors, aren’t you?”
Jacqueline’s eyes flickered slightly without denying it.
The former shut her eyes and asked, “I want to know why you’re not putting on an act in front of me anymore.”
“It’s nothing. It’s tiring to put up an act, you know. Besides, Shane isn’t here. So why should I bother?”
Natalie pursed her pale lips for a moment before saying, “Is that so? Since this is your true self, then may I ask if you were the one behind the burning of my warehouse, the car accident of my son and friend, and also my kidnapping with Harrison?”
She had already suspected it a long time ago but dispelled the thought later on.
Right then, Jacqueline had finally shown her true colors. So Natalie decided to make it clear with her once and for all.
The latter stared at her in shock. “Oh my, so you’ve been through so many traumatizing events!”
Natalie studied her face with icy cold eyes, trying to decipher her reaction.
However, it seemed as though she actually didn’t know what happened.
For a moment, Natalie couldn’t tell what was going on.
“Don’t be disappointed, Ms. Smith. I’m sure you’ll find out who’s the one behind all this. But why would that person do all this to you?” Jacqueline asked with a smile.
Natalie lowered her gaze as she didn’t want to answer.
Jacqueline’s eyes turned cold as she was upset at her reaction. “Forget it if you don’t want to answer. I won’t ask anymore.”
“Then please leave,” Natalie said as she rubbed the bridge of her nose.
The latter’s lips curled as she said, “You’re chasing me away? That’s so heartless of you.”
“Then what do you want?” the bedridden woman asked with furrowed brows.
“Nothing. I just enjoy the sight of you being miserable. It’s such a rare sight, after all.” Jacqueline crossed her arms before continuing, “I thought that I’d have to wait for a long time before I could see you like this. Who would’ve thought that it’d be so soon? It seems like your mother died at the right timing.”
