She was Natalie, and that was that. She was one of a kind. How could someone treat her as someone else's
substitute?
Natalie clenched her hands into fists and hissed, “What a scumbag.”
Shane knew she was talking about Sean, and he agreed wholeheartedly.
Falling in love with his own aunt and Natalie, too? Despicable.
“Once we find him, I'm going to show him why he should be scared,” Natalie said and bit her lip.
Shane caressed her hair gently.
Natalie looked at Shane's bloody knuckles, and her anger toward Sean immediately extinguished. She pulled him
toward the bed. “I'll help you bandage this.”
She forced him to sit down and went to get the first-aid kit from the closet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she came out with the first-aid kit, she saw Shane reading the diary.
He flipped through it. “Are you almost done?”
“Yes. I have two entries left,” Natalie walked over and put the first-aid kit down. As she started ruffling through it to
look for the correct ointment, she said, “I haven't read them thoroughly, but I did flip through them. I realized he
stopped five years ago.”
“Five years ago, he drugged me and wanted to blackmail me. His plan only failed because you showed up, and
after I left, I chased him out of the country. That was why he stopped,” Shane explained.
Natalie nodded. “I see. So he probably also joined that organization because you kicked him out, right?”
“Yes. He had no power five years ago, but now he has enough power to be considered a threat in more than a few
countries. That's what makes me think he joined around the same time, too,” Shane said mildly.
Natalie cleaned off the blood on his knuckles. “He wrote about his true goal behind drugging you that night.”
“Really?” Shane frowned.
Natalie threw away the bloody cotton ball and started disinfecting the wound with alcohol. “He wrote that he did do
that to blackmail you so he could get you to return Wells Properties' major shares. He even wrote that he had never
even thought about taking over Thompson Group, but if your father had passed it over to him, he wouldn't have
said no.”
“He can keep dreaming!” Shane smirked coldly before his eyes narrowed at a sudden thought. “Did you just say he
wanted me to return the Wells Properties shares to him?”
“Yes.”
“Why return, though?” Shane didn't get it.
He knew his mom hadn't handed Wells Properties over to him, or her lawyer would have come to find him soon
after she passed so he could be informed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe hadn't known who had gotten Wells Properties until he saw his grandfather's will and found out that Sean had
gotten it.
How could Sean ask him to return them? It wasn't like Shane had them anyway.
Shane's mouth opened slightly. “Did Sean think it went to me?”
“Yes.” Natalie nodded. “He wrote about how Lindsay passed Wells Properties over to him as a note of gratitude. She
truly did treat him like a son, and Sean knew that. However, before he could sign the contract, she passed away,
and the contract disappeared, so he thought you had taken it.”
“I see.” Shane's thin lips flattened into a line.
Natalie sighed. “Actually, Grandpa took the contract away, and he didn't tell either of you. That's why Sean thought
you took it away because you didn't think it was fair for him to get it. Then, when he found out that the contract
wasn't with you and with Grandpa, he started his relentless journey to get his hands on Grandpa's will.”
Everything made perfect sense now.
Shane clenched his fists tightly. “He'd really stop at nothing to get his hands on Wells Properties.”
“Because it was from your mom,” Natalie reminded.
Of course, Sean took it seriously. After all, he was in love with Lindsay.
