Even Harrison himself had no idea that he had been poisoned. It was likely that he would still be in the dark when he breathed his last, thinking that he perished from an illness.
“Hah! It looks like Susan and Warren are eager to go public with their relationship,” Natalie mocked.
Shane massaged his temples. “Do you want to tell Harrison about it?”
“Why should I? I hate him, and I believe that Jared would also make the same choice after learning about this. Besides, I’ve never believed that my mother’s death was an accident. I’m dead certain that he and Susan had a hand in her death, but there’s no evidence,” Natalie gritted, her expression frosty.
Warmth enveloped Natalie upon hearing that. “Thank you. I thought you’d regard me as cold-blooded for not saving him.”
“Not at all. If I were in your shoes, my choice will be the same,” Shane admitted.
Natalie giggled. “That’s great, for it shows that we’re indeed a match made in heaven!”
“Yeah.” Shane’s thin lips curved into a smile as well.
“Oh yes, you didn’t tell him, did you?” Natalie suddenly asked.
Shane shook his head in denial. “No, I merely had Silas tell him that he passed out from anger, and he bought it.”
“Phew! That’s good.” Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.
“However, I’ve already ordered Silas to collect evidence of Susan poisoning him.”
“That’s only fair. While I’m not saving him, I don’t want her to get away with it. So, how much longer does he have?” Natalie inquired.
“Half a year,” Shane uttered slowly.
Hearing that, a smile bloomed on Natalie’s face. “In that case, submit the evidence five months from now. By then, he’ll probably be bedridden. It should be interesting when he learns that he’s been poisoned by the person closest to him.”
At that time, I’ll also tell him that she’s been cheating on him. Who knows, he might even keel over from fury. I can’t find any evidence that they have murdered Mom, but I can use my own method to avenge her.
“Mr. Shane!” At that precise moment, Silas pushed open the door to Shane’s office with a frantic expression.
When Natalie heard that, she said, “I’ll leave you to it, Shane. We’ll talk next time.”
“Okay.” Shane nodded in agreement.
