"Elliot, you have my parents. One thing, or ten, or even a hundred things, so long as I'm capable of doing them, I will do anything for you. All I ask is that you let me live after I'm done. My mom has diabetes and my stepfather has an old injury on his back, so he can't work anymore. They are both living off of the money I make. If I die, they won't survive either." Natalie lowered her head and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Chad watched her from a distance and felt nothing but the irony in the situation. He felt no sympathy for Natalie, and her tears just looked like crocodile tears to him. If they took pity on her and let her live, she would definitely seek revenge on Elliot in the future whenever she had the chance. "I have ordered my lawyer to draft up a contract. Sign it first, and I will consider if I'm going to let you live," he looked at her while sitting in the office chair.
"What kind of contract?" Natalie asked nervously.
Elliot took out his phone to check the time, but he did not respond to her question.
Curious, Chad leaned over and whispered into Elliot’s ear, "Mr. Foster, are you planning to overwrite the original contract you signed with her?"
"Yeah," Elliot said.
The two had not been loud, but Natalie was able to hear them. She was prey, and they had cornered her. They had no intention of telling her anything and she would find out when the lawyer came to deliver the contract.
"I can sign to overwrite our previous contract. I wouldn't be able to fulfill the target you set without Dean Jennings' help anyway." Natalie knew she had no other choice. Even if she was not willing to do so, Elliot would force her to sign the contract because it was clear that Elliot wanted nothing to do with her, and neither did he want her to be associated with Tate Industries any longer.
