“I know, but I didn't want to talk to her,” Shane said.

If it had not been because he was waiting for Natalie and their children, he would have left long ago and not stayed

there, listening to Susan chattering beside him.

“What did you and Harrison talk about? Have you told him the reason he fell ill?” Shane turned to Natalie.

Natalie shook her head. “Not yet. Susan was waiting outside, so I didn't tell him. I also haven't told him that Jasmine

isn't his daughter. Perhaps next time.”

“Sure.” Shane nodded in understanding.

Soon, they left the hospital.

Natalie received a call from Jared informing her that he had arrived at J City airport.

Initially, Natalie planned to pick him up. However, Sharon could not remain outside for too long, so Shane arranged

for Silas to pick him up instead.

The following day, Jared went to visit Harrison at the hospital. Natalie did not go with him. Instead, she went to the

company after leaving her children with Mrs. Wilson.

Joyce was happy to see Natalie. “Nat, you're back again?”

“Harrison is dying, so I came back to see him,” Natalie said after putting down her bag.

Joyce was shocked. “Your scumbag of a father is dying?”

“Yes.” Natalie nodded.

Joyce tutted and said, “This is unexpected. Wasn't he in good health previously? Why is he suddenly...”

“Someone did not want him to be well.” Natalie pulled out a chair and sat down.

For a moment, Joyce was stunned. When she understood what Natalie was implying, her eyes widened in shock.

“Nat, are you saying that someone—”

“Shh!” Natalie raised her index finger to her lips, indicating that Joyce should not voice it out.

Joyce nodded immediately. “My goodness, that's unbelievable!”

“It's his retribution,” Natalie said indifferently and turned on her computer.

Joyce sighed. “You're right. It's retribution for what he has done. However, Stanley's parents' murderer remains at

large.”

Hearing this, Natalie patted Joyce's shoulder and said, “Don't worry. Justice will prevail eventually.”

“I hope so.” Joyce smiled bitterly and took out something from her pocket.

Natalie saw that it was a black and round badge with a picture of a katana. It seemed sinister.

“Joyce, what badge is that?” Natalie asked with a frown.

Joyce raised the badge in her hand. “You're asking about this?”

“Yes.” Natalie nodded. “It seems sinister. Why do you have it?”

“I picked it up,” Joyce replied. “I found it at Stanley's parents' murder scene. It was stained with blood when I found

it. Later, I lost it and only found it the day before yesterday when I was going through my old things.”

“You found it at the murder scene?” Natalie took the badge from Joyce. “You're unbelievable! Anything at the

murder scene could be evidence. How could you have picked it up anyhow?”

“I didn't know anything back then. Furthermore, I found it when I went to the crime scene the third time. It was

under the coffee table. By then, the police officers had cleared the crime scene. They must have missed this during

their investigation. At the time, I wanted to give it to the police, but I forgot and lost it.” Joyce sighed.

“Could this be something that the murderer left behind?” Natalie checked the badge closely.

Joyce shook her head. “I don't know whether it belonged to the murderer or Stanley's parents.”

“Let's ask Stanley.” Natalie returned the badge to Joyce. “He should know whether it belonged to his parents. If he

says no, then it must have belonged to the murderer. Then, we can use this to find the murderer and clear your

parents' name.”

“I-Is that really possible?” Joyce's voice trembled slightly. “Can we find the murderer with just this badge? Doesn't it

seem a little far-fetched?”

“If it was any other badge, perhaps it would not be possible. However, I'm sure we can find the murderer using this

one,” Natalie said confidently.

Joyce blinked bewilderedly. “What makes you say that?”
