Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 986
“Huh?” Natalie narrowed her eyes. “What does that mean?”
“Ten years ago, the Grahams declared bankruptcy, and both Mr. and Mrs. Graham passed on soon after. This was not from the blow dealt by their insolvency, but of Jacqueline’s doing.” said the horrified Marjorie.
Natalie’s eyes widened, and she felt her own skin crawl. “Do you mean to suggest that Jacqueline killed her own parents?”
Shane stood to his feet. “Regardless, the fact that this could be traced back to her means that she won’t be able to get away scot-free.”
“I agree,” Natalie concurred.
Shane then looked to Marjorie. “You said that you did not dare to share what you heard with anyone else before. Why?”
Marjorie smiled bitterly. “It was because I was discovered. Jacqueline walked away smugly after Mrs. Graham gave up on getting her to turn herself in. I felt sorry for the woman who was sobbing away while bent over on the ground on her own. I could not help but sigh, and that’s when Mrs. Graham heard me.”
“Did she threaten you?” Natalie asked.
The woman nodded, then shook her head. “You could put it that way. The Grahams and us Larsons were business partners, but we were on a less solid footing than they were. Mrs. Graham made me promise not to say this to anyone at the threat of repercussions against our family, and that was why I’ve never mentioned this to anyone before.”
“Looks like the charitable spirit Mr. Wangton spoke glowingly of had its limits,” sneered Natalie.
If the Grahams were as kindly as they made themselves out to be, they probably wouldn’t have issued such threats against anyone’s loved ones. Perhaps they did do enough good in their time to justify the plaudits they received but apparently, they weren’t saints either.
“Since you’ve agreed not to divulge this, why did you choose to share it with Mrs. Brown and the others afterward?” Shane’s eyes were riveted on Marjorie as he asked.
