Jared smile. “Not at all. He was very happy.”

“Happy?” Natalie raised an eyebrow.

“Actually, he had been pretty happy the entire day. When he saw Susan get what she deserved on the live stream,

he laughed out loud. I actually bought a bottle of wine back to celebrate. Then...”

“Then what?”

“Then, he told me to call the police station. He wanted to speak to Susan. I have no idea what they talked about,

but the phone call was pretty lengthy. After that, Harrison downed another cup of wine. He told me to go out

because he wanted to take a nap. An hour later, when the nurse came into do her rounds, she realized that he

wasn't breathing. However, he wore a smile on his face when he left. I think it's safe to assume that he wasn't in

any pain at all,” Jared explained.

“I see.” Natalie bit down on her lower lip. “That's good to hear.”

“Nat, would you like to go see him?” Jared asked while looking at her.

She shook her head. “No, I'll pass. Just arrange for the funeral house to take over from here.”

“Okay. I'll give them a call.”

Natalie grunted in reply and said nothing more.

Soon after, Natalie and Shane left the hospital and returned to Thompson villa.

Natalie dealt with Harrison's affairs quite quickly. The next day, he was cremated. However, they did not retrieve his

ashes; it was left at the funeral house.

Just then, Shane sent a document over to Natalie.

Natalie received it in confusion. “What's this?”

“A contract for Harrison's cemetery. The grave beside Yulia had already been bought over. I got Silas to contact its

owner and managed to buy it over for double the price.” Shane sat down beside her.

Natalie massaged the space between her brows. “I didn't know you asked Silas to do that. I thought someone else

had bought it.”

Earlier, she had called the cemetery and was prepared to buy over the grave next to her mother's.

However, they informed her that that grave had already been bought by someone else a long time ago.

When she finally managed to get the contact information of the owner, that person told her that he had just sold it

off to someone else.

Now, Shane was telling her that he was the one who bought it. In other words, she had gone round in circles for

nothing.

“After you agreed to Harrison's request yesterday, I immediately called Silas to arrange it.” Shane picked up her

cup and took a sip of water.

Natalie flipped through the contract. “I'll transfer the money over to you later.”

Hearing this, his expression fell. “There's no need. I'm your husband. Why would you need to pay me back?”

“This is different. If you were buying it for my mother, I would not pay you back. This grave is for Harrison.”

Shane pursed his lips. “You don't have to pay me back either way. Just give your money to the charity organizations

under Thompson Group instead.”

“That works too. I'll treat it as though I'm doing some good on Harrison's behalf.” She nodded.

Just then, Jared walked over. “Nat, I just got a call from a lawyer that wants to see us.”

“A lawyer?” Natalie looked at him curiously. “From where? Whose lawyer?”

“He told me that Harrison sent him,” Jared replied.

Shane smiled lightly. “I guess he has stuff he wants you both to inherit.”

Instantly, Natalie furrowed her brows. “Pfft. Who says I want to inherit his stuff?”

“So, should I ask him to come over?” Jared asked softly.

Natalie put down the contract in her hands onto the coffee table. “Sure. I'm curious to see why Harrison wants him

to meet us anyway.”

“Okay.” Jared nodded. Then, he took out his phone and made a call to the lawyer.

Roughly an hour later, the lawyer arrived.

“Mr. Shane, Mrs. Thompson, Mr. Jared.” The lawyer greeted all three of them politely.

Natalie pointed ahead of her and said, “Mr. Walker, please take a seat.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Thompson.” He sat down without hesitation.

Shane looked toward him. “I know you. You're quite famous in J City. You specialize in sorting out wills, right? I

assume you're here because of Harrison's will then.”
