Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 443

Terence remained calm, completely unpredictable.

"Mr. Lockwood, aren't you going to explain yourself? Or are you unable to refute the evidence?"

"Will this incident affect your relationship with Ms. Verdan?"

Terence hadn't intended to respond, but he stopped when he heard the reporter's question.

"No. She trusts me. She knows I would never do anything to harm Hanley. So it won't affect our relationship."

"Mr. Lockwood, are you saying you didn't push Hanley? Are you calling him a liar?"

"Hanley is only five. If he's slandering you, that's terrifying."

"Exactly! If he dares to tell lies like this at five, who would want to be around a kid like that in the future?"

The reporters didn't dare criticize Terence directly, so they took an indirect approach. But their words were like steel needles piercing Hanley's chest.

If the truth came out and it was proven that he had lied, he might become the most despicable person imaginable. At that thought, Hanley suddenly felt a surge of fear.

Especially when he met Terence's eyes, Hanley was too afraid to speak.

Because Terence hadn't pushed him at all.

"The child was frightened, which is why he mistakenly thought I pushed him. It was just an accident. There's nothing more to say."

Natalie looked at Terence, understanding his intention.

He wanted to protect her son, to avoid a public confrontation, to prevent him from being verbally abused by others.

Terence was the one being slandered and framed, yet he wasn't angry.

Terence led Natalie away, leaving a crowd of stunned reporters behind.

This incident had blown up, and Terence just left like that?

So nonchalantly. Did he not know how big the impact would be?

Suddenly, she thought of something.

"Terence, I think there's something strange about that video. I don't think Darren was behind it."

"Are you... pleading his case now?"

Even when he was framed, the stock price was falling, and people were accusing him, Terence hadn't gotten angry.

But in this moment, Natalie sensed that Terence seemed a little angry.

"Pleading his case?"

Was he angry because he thought she was defending Darren?

"No... I just don't think Darren has the ability to hack into the Lockwood family's surveillance network. It feels like a third party is involved. I want you to be careful, since we don't know who it is."

"So, you're worried about me?"
