“I like how straightforward you are.” Sean patted his thigh before putting on a straight face. “What about the will?
Did you find it?”
“No.” Natalie shook her head before adding, “But I found some clues.”
“Oh?” Sean raised a brow. “You didn't have any clues half a month ago. Why do you have it now?”
Natalie knew he was trying to sound her out. Coolly, she met his gaze. “You told me you'd harm my loved ones if I
couldn't find anything. I care for my kids the most, so I dug these clues out.”
“That makes sense. Tell me. How did you get the clues?” Sean gazed at her, seemingly interested. He was no longer
desperate to know the clues.
Natalie placed the wineglass down. “Easy. I bought some sleeping pills a few days ago and placed two pills in
Shane's cup. When he was in a daze, I asked him where his grandpa was most likely to hide something. Or
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsomewhere where he'd want to go.”
“Just like that?” Sean narrowed his gaze.
Natalie inclined her head and took out a note from her bag. She placed it on the table before pushing it in Sean's
direction. “Here are a few locations I found. The first few are most likely where the will could be hidden, but I don't
think it's hidden in those places.”
“How so?” Sean glanced at the locations.
Natalie explained, “Because it's too easy. Those who know David well would guess it easily. I believe you've been to
those places, too.”
Sean's lips curved up as he kept silent.
I knew it. Natalie immediately pointed at the few other locations. “The other few are where David wanted to go
most. His will is most probably there. If he hadn't hidden it at the places where he frequented, it would most
probably be hidden where he wanted to visit the most.”
Sean's expression turned grim at her narration.
Indeed, if he were in his grandfather's shoes, that was what he'd do.
Still, they had to figure out the exact location.
As Sean studied the few locations, Natalie smirked and blurted out a reminder. “I heard that David met his wife,
Ruth, at Loang. Do you think the will is there?”
Sean's gaze narrowed as he gripped his wineglass in excitement.
Yes, Loang was where Grandpa met Grandma. After Shane's parents passed on, I remember how Grandpa used to
talk to Grandma's photograph, lamenting about how he didn't teach our family well.
As the will concerned my family's survival, there is a possibility that Grandpa hid it in Loang, though he hadn't been
there in decades.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShane tamped down his excitement and beamed at Natalie. “Nat, you're my lucky star.”
Natalie merely lowered her gaze. “I'm not your lucky star. I hope you'll stop threatening me. You said that we can
call it even once I gave you any clue regarding the will.”
“Yes, I did say that, but...”
Sean suddenly rose to his feet and walked past the coffee table before coming to a stop in front of Natalie. As
Natalie gazed at him warily, he lifted her chin and pinned her onto the couch.
The intimate gesture caused Natalie's body to stiffen in shock. It took her a while to regain her composure and gave
Sean a forceful shove.
“Let me go! Sean, get up! I'm your cousin-in-law. You can't do this to me!” she yelled with all her might.
Anger thrummed through her veins instantly as she hadn't expected he'd try to take advantage of her shamelessly.
Sean seemed unfazed by her punches and flashed a devilishly handsome smile.
In return, Natalie glared at him, her gaze full of fury and embarrassment.
