Shane bit his lips in silence.
He was reluctant to show her the evidence as he did not want her to see for herself how her mom, whom she
idolized, committed the crime.
But she was so insistent....
“Fine. Come to Thompson Group tomorrow. I will show it to you.” Shane promised.
As soon as he said that, Natalie's heart skipped a beat.
So the evidence exists?
“Stunned? Lost for words?” Shane narrowed his eyes and challenged her.
“Fine! I'll be there.” Natalie pursed her lips and agreed.
She had always chosen not to believe that her mom had really killed someone, despite his insistence that he had
evidence and the fact that her mom had always behaved secretively on the Ninth of October every year.
The Thompson Group might not be as influential eighteen years ago, but they were already in the top ten amongst
the corporations in J City.
The Smith family was just starting out that time, so it would be a piece of cake for the Thompsons to destroy the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSmith family.
Similarly, it would have been easy for the Thompsons to find out who killed Shane's parents. If Natalie's mom did
that, why did they not arrest her then? What made it even weirder was that David even accepted her mom to be
his goddaughter instead.
There would definitely be some hidden secrets that both she and Shane were not aware of.
With that thought in mind, Natalie took a deep breath and stood up.
However, she accidentally knocked the envelope off the bed, and it fell to the floor, spilling the contents from the
unsealed envelope.
Shane instinctively looked down and saw the divorce papers. Instantly, his face turned gloomy, and the atmosphere
was chilling.
He bent down to retrieve the divorce papers and waved them in Natalie's face. “You want a divorce?” he sternly
questioned.
“Yes.” Natalie had not planned to let him know until later, but since he saw it, she did not feel the need to deny it.
There was no hiding from him as she would eventually need to get him to sign the papers.
Shane crumpled the papers in his hands and growled, “How dare you!”
He might have been angry and harsh toward her because of Yulia, but the thought of divorce never crossed his
mind.
The nerve she has! She even got ready the divorce papers!
Natalie bit her lips and let out a miserable smile. “How dare I? How dare I! If it wasn't because of you, Mr. Shane,
would I have come to this stage? It was who pushed me to the edge.”
“Me?” Shane was bewildered when he heard that.
“Yes, you!” Natalie stared fixedly at him and continued, “Just ask yourself how you've been treating me so far. You
gave me the cold shoulder and ignored me after you decided I was the daughter of your enemy. We're married, for
Christ's sake, Shane. Do you think that is how a husband should treat his wife? What's the point of being married if
you ignore me all the time!”
Shane's lips quivered upon that but remained speechless.
After a while, Natalie took a deep breath and added, “I am very miserable, Shane. So miserable that I couldn't even
focus on my work. Even Joyce said I had changed; I'm no longer the passionate Natalie who strived to be a top
designer.”
She felt constrained because of love, and she was about to wallow in the pit.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was not the kind of life she wanted.
“So please, Shane, it's better for us to go our separate ways. My mom would forever be a thorn in your flesh, and
we would never be able to go back to our loving ways anymore. I understand how you feel, but it doesn't mean that
I have to accept it.”
Natalie looked at him with her teary eyes and pleaded, “Can we separate and move on? It would be the best for us
and the kids.”
Shane's heart bled when he heard her sorrowful plea, but he stood firm and dismissed it, “Never. I will never agree
to a divorce.”
“Why are you doing this? Why do you want to keep your enemy's daughter by your side, bringing constant pain to
both of us?” Natalie cried.
Shane could only stand there with his tightly clenched fist, unable to answer her.
At that, Natalie let out a sigh and took over the envelope from his hand. “Other than the divorce papers, the
paternity test results for the two kids are also in here.”
Paternity test results?
Shane squinted his eyes in surprise.
Natalie then took out the paternity test results and said, “Joyce came and took a few hairs from you the other day,
so I could get the test done.”
