Jared frowned as he retrieved his memories. “As far as I can remember, there wasn’t anything wrong.”
Natalie was unsure how she ought to dwell on it.
Meanwhile, Joyce couldn’t stand it and grabbed Natalie’s phone away from her. “Jared, it’s me.”
“Hey Joyce,” Jared greeted her smilingly.
“Good boy!” Joyce said delightedly, “Well, let me cut a long story short. Shane is crazy and abusing Nat mentally. The reason behind it is that Yulia probably did something wrong to the Thompson family. As a result, Shane vents his anger on Nat now.”
“What?” Jared’s smile froze for a while. “How dare Shane do this to Nat! Is Nat alright?”
“She’s healthy mentally but not in good spirits. Anyway, she has felt a lot better after I comforted her. So, we want to figure out what Yulia did in the past to solve the predicament between Nat and Shane,” Joyce explained.
Jared frowned for a while. “I don’t know if Mom ever offended the Thompsons. I can’t recall anything related to it so far.”
“Think closely again! After all, Yulia took care of you, and you spent a lot of time with her. Could it be that you overlooked things that might look trivial to you?” Joyce didn’t give up.
After all, Jared was their only chance to get to the bottom of the mystery.
Joyce tried it with Shane and Silas but couldn’t get more information from them.
“Alright, let me think again.” Jared’s expression turned grim.
He had to recall the past carefully for the sake of Nat.
While Jared was deep in thought, Joyce handed the phone back to Natalie.
Natalie heaved a sigh. “Perhaps Jared doesn’t know anything.”
