Spoiled By The President: My Wife Is A Little Sweet novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249 She Wants the Truth

The next day, Natalia received a call from Elsa.

Jessica's arrest was big news, so naturally, the Dawson family was aware of it.

Even last night, they'd caught wind of the arrest even earlier than Shawn. They'd wanted to gauge the Miller family's reaction at the time, so they'd held their horses for the moment.

Then they found that the Millers weren't just leaving Jessica in there, but when asked about it, they were even saying that Jessica deserved what she'd got with the crime she'd committed.

With the Miller family caught up in the mess, the board of directors utterly shaken and the Kalaneige sponsorship they'd paid a fortune for lost to the wind, they were letting her off easy.

It would be kind enough of them to let her go so easily, so why would they even think of some way to bail her out.

Henry had even told them that if Jessica got out unscathed, that was fine, but if she really had committed a crime, the Miller family was definitely not going to protect her.

By that point, Shawns' marriage with her was out of the question. They needed a divorce.

The Dawson family was outraged. Clara had even shattered her teapot out of rage and pointed at Henry, speechless.

Finally, with the Miller family turning their backs on them, the Dawsons could only leave helplessly.

They'd only just left the Miller household when they headed to Star Entertainment.

Natalia had received Elsa's call because the Dawsons were raising a ruckus there.

Plenty of outside media had come, and with all the celebrities working at Star, this wouldn't be good for the company or for other celebrities if it went on.

So Elsa was forced to take a risk and call Natalia in secret, asking her for a plan.

Natalia thought about it, then said, "Give her the phone."

Elsa's eyes widened in shock.

"Is that... all right? There's so many reporters out there."

"It's fine. Call her to the side. Remember, get her alone. If even one extra person is there, don't give it to her."

Elsa thought about it and agreed.

She called Clara to Natalia's office alone, then locked the door and gave her the phone.

"Take it!"

Clara was astonished. She didn't think they'd really put her in contact with Natalia. Looked like the ruckus worked.

Thinking that Natalia was afraid of her, she took the phone and in thoroughly unpleasant tones, said, "Damn brat! You know fear after all, do you? I thought you'd have the guts to stay hidden."

Over the line, Natalia frowned.

She really didn't know why this old woman thought that she could still speak to her on such a pedestal after so much had happened.

She scoffed.

"Looks like you still haven't considered who has the advantage here, taking such a tone... it's a little uncomfortable to hear. How about we chat another time?"

Clara blinked.

Only then did she realize that it'd been difficult even getting this call today. She couldn't let this chance slip.

So she reined in her temper, refined her manners, and said, "Fine, we'll leave those words. Talk! Why did you frame Jessica? And how would we get you to show your face? Don't think I don't know that you haven't gone missing at all. You've just hidden yourself away to ruin my Jessica!"

Natalia's face fell, her gaze dimming.

My Jessica?

A long time ago, she'd been their Natalia too.

Memories rushed in like a tide. She didn't understand it. Clara and Philip had been so good to her before. Three generations of the family living together in contentment.

Then Aleena and Jessica had shown up and everyone had changed.

With her mother gone, she'd gone from the beloved granddaughter to the abandoned granddaughter.
