Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 132

"My daughter told me she's never seen a single bruise on Hanley's arms."

"Back when the rumors were flying, I posted online that my kid was in his class and that I'd never seen him with any injuries during drop-off or pickup. I was completely buried under an avalanche of online trolls."

"Right? I thought it was strange, too. If a child were being beaten that badly, how could the school not notify the parents? How could Hanley's father not know and just let the abuse continue?"

"Now that you mention it, that kid's story seems highly questionable."

"If he really did frame his own mother... that's terrifying. For a child to be so cruel, he must have been coached by an adult."

"It had to be an adult. The only question is whether it was his father or the mistress."

Hanley was furious. He yelled at the crowd, "What nonsense are you talking about? My auntie would never tell me to do something like that! I won't let you slander her!"

Hanley's outburst only fueled the crowd's speculation, while Natalie's expression remained icy.

"This kid is still defending Marie. Does he even understand what a mistress is?"

"His parents are already divorced, but he doesn't seem sad about it at all."

"Now I finally understand what an ungrateful brat is. Suddenly, I don't care if my kid isn't smart enough to get selected. At least he should know gratitude. At least he should remember I'm the one who went through hell to give birth to him. The thought of him siding with a mistress to attack me like this... it's enough to drive me insane!"

The whispers made Hanley even angrier. Could he really be wrong?

Terence's sudden appearance stunned everyone.

No one expected Terence Lockwood himself to be here.

"You don't show a hint of sadness for your own brother. Instead, you're here bragging. Your triumphant display makes me wonder if his 'accident' had something to do with you."

Marie's face went pale.

"Mr. Lockwood, how could you say that? It was an accident! The police investigated it thoroughly, and the driver is in prison. You can't just frame me to defend Natalie!"
