“So how? Have you thought it through?” Harrison asked in a relaxed manner while sipping coffee after the call went
through.
Natalie gripped her phone tightly and replied with a sneer, “My answer is still the same. I don't agree!”
Harrison's expression darkened and he put his cup down heavily on the coffee table. “You're still not willing to
relent? Didn't you see those nasty comments targeted towards you on the Internet?”
“I did.”
“Why are you still behaving in this manner since you have seen them? Do you want them to continue scolding
you?” Harrison slammed the table furiously.
Shane still had his gaze fixed intently on the woman's phone.
Natalie noticed the man's interest in the conversation. In addition, because of the fact that he had also been
dragged into the matter, she switched on the loudspeaker on her phone before replying, “Mr. Smith, you don't have
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto pretend that you're thinking for me. It's really fake. After all, aren't you the mastermind behind all these?”
“You... “ Harrison was stumped at the woman's response but quickly composed himself. Letting out a cold snort, he
said, “You were the one who forced me to take that step. If you were willing to compromise earlier, there wouldn't
be a need for me to do that.”
“Yup, you're making me suffer because I didn't compromise. But how about Mr. Shane? What did Mr. Shane do to
offend you?” Natalie looked up at the man in front of her as she spoke into the phone.
Shane narrowed his eyes but remained silent.
On the other end of the phone, Harrison frowned as he replied in confusion, “What has this got to do with Shane?”
“Everything. You're tarnishing my image by saying that I'm shamelessly seducing Mr. Shane, causing him to break
off his engagement with Jasmine. Have you ever considered if Mr. Shane is willing to be made use of by you?”
Natalie scoffed.
Harrison's eyes widened when he heard that. He shuddered nervously and was at a loss for words.
Indeed, that had never crossed his mind.
He just wanted to use the most effective and direct reason to smear Natalie. While doing that, he had never
considered that Shane would also be implicated and might be unhappy about it.
Natalie knew that she had hit the bull's eye when Harrison did not reply. As such, she continued speaking while
looking at Shane, “Looks like you've indeed failed to consider that. If that's the case, do you think Mr. Shane would
help me silent the netizens if I go to him for assistance?”
“Of course!” Shane suddenly answered, without any hesitation.
Harrison bolted up from the sofa when he heard the man's voice and asked, “Natalie, is Shane with you now?”
“Yup. Didn't you claim that I have seduced him? Wouldn't it be normal then that he's at my place?” Natalie said as
she leaned against the sofa.
The woman's reply sent Harrison into a fluster.
If Shane's with her now, wouldn't that mean that he has also heard our conversation?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarrison started panicking at once. Gripping tightly onto the dragon figurine on his walking cane, he quickly
apologized, “Errr, Shane, I didn't mean to drag you into all these. I'm so... “
“Well, I had an eye-opening experience because of Mr. Smith.” Shane interrupted the man sarcastically as he did
not wish for him to continue, knowing what he was going to say. “I can't believe you're ruining the reputation of
your other daughter just for Susan and her daughter.”
Natalie nodded, agreeing with what Shane had just said.
She felt as if God was playing a joke on her by giving her a dad like Harrison.
Being lectured by his junior, Harrison's face immediately flushed red with embarrassment and he wished he could
find a hole to bury his head in right away.
However, there was no hole for him and he did not dare to end the call just like that. As such, he could only force
himself to endure the discomfort and replied, “Shane, I have didn't have a choice. I can't possibly leave my wife and
daughter in the lurch right? I only did that as a last resort.”
“Last resort? Your last resort is to trample on your other daughter to achieve your objective? You're still the same
as you were seven years ago.” A sneer appeared on Shane's face as he said that.
Fear flashed across Harrison's face when he heard that and his heart starting thumping faster. Instinctively, he
replied, “Seven... seven years ago? What do you mean? I don't understand.”
