Meanwhile, the children were displeased. “Mommy, we are not…”
“That’s enough!” The kids lowered their heads amid Natalie’s scolding.
Seeing her children’s reaction, Natalie’s heart softened and she bent down to look at them. “My dear, Mommy didn’t want to be angry at you guys, but did you know that you have done something wrong? Besides, Mr. Shane has a fiancée. How can you ask me and Mr. Shane to get married?”
When Shane heard this, he furrowed his eyebrows. He was uncomfortable with the word “fiancée”, but he did not refute Natalie’s statement.
“Alright. Now, apologize to Mr. Shane and don’t bring up this nonsense anymore.” Natalie patted the backs of her children.
Thus, the kindergarten family event came to a conclusion with the two littles ones expressing their apologies.
Shane drove away after dropping off Natalie and her kids at their apartment lobby.
As soon as they reached home, Natalie received a phone call from the detective agency.
“Ms. Smith, upon my investigations, I found out that there certainly was someone prodding the kids to bully your children,” Ben said.
Her grip on the phone tightened. “Who was it?”
“You surely know this person. It was Jasmine,” Ben replied.
Natalie forcefully shut her eyes and suppressed the hatred burning within her. “I knew it!”
She had been suspecting Jasmine over the last few days but was unwilling to come to a conclusion.
Great. At least my guess is confirmed.
Natalie ended the call in an icy mood; she was determined to make Jasmine pay the price for her actions. Jasmine could bully me, but not my children. Not ever!
The next day, not long after Natalie arrived at work, she heard an annoying roar outside her office door. “Natalie, you little b*tch! Get the hell out here!”
“What happened?”
