Leave it there?

Natalie looked down at her hands, then placed her bag on his desk.

Sensing some movement, Shane said dismissively, “You may go out now. I'll get Silas to send the information down

later.”

The smile on Natalie's face widened, and she made no move to leave. Instead, she stood there and watched him

quietly.

She wanted to see how long it would take for him to realize that she was in his office.

Although Shane did not look up, he was listening.

When he did not hear any footsteps walking away, he frowned.

What's wrong with this person? Didn't I tell him to go out? Why isn't he leaving?

“Is there anything else?” Shane asked, raising his head.

He expected to see the unfamiliar face of one of his subordinates. However, he was greeted with Natalie's beautiful

face beaming down at him. Momentarily stunned, he massaged his temples and smiled. “It's you. Why didn't you

say anything?”

“That's because I wanted to see how long it'd take you to realize it was me,” Natalie replied with a grin.

“You cheeky girl! Come here,” said Shane, holding out his hand.

As soon as she walked over to him, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap. “What brings you here?”

“I was just at the bank to retrieve the security footage. Your office was nearer than mine, so I came here to check

the footage,” Natalie replied.

“Well, where is it?” he asked.

Natalie reached into her bag and took out a flash drive. “Here it is.”

Shane took the flash drive and plugged it into his computer.

It contained a video.

Natalie's expression turned grave, and her hands balled into fists.

Shane hovered the cursor over the video, but he did not immediately click on it. Tilting his head to look at Natalie,

he asked, “Should I play the footage?”

She knew that he was asking her for confirmation because he was worried it would be too much for her. After a

while, she nodded. “Play it.”

“Okay,” Shane answered, clicking the computer mouse.

The video started playing, and the image that filled the screen was the Smith residence's third-floor corridor.

Then, Susan walked into frame.

She lingered at the corridor as if she was waiting for something.

Soon, another figure appeared. It was Yulia.

Natalie's eyes reddened at once. “Mom...”

Although she could not touch Yulia, just seeing her mother alive and well on the screen was enough to trigger a

wave of emotions.

Yulia spotted Susan and stopped in front of her.

Susan opened her mouth to speak, but they could not hear what she said because the security footage had no

audio. Nonetheless, they guessed from the arrogant look on Susan's face that she was not saying anything

pleasant.

After Susan finished speaking, Yulia said something in response.

Once again, Natalie had no idea what Yulia said, but she could tell that Susan was furious.

After conversing for a while, the two women got into a tussle.

Yulia slapped Susan, who stomped her foot in anger and retaliated by shoving Yulia against the railing so that the

top half of Yulia's body was hanging over it.

Suddenly, Susan bent down and grabbed Yulia's legs, then threw her over the railing.

Immediately after that, Susan stumbled backward in horror, realizing what she had just done. She fell onto the

floor, staring at her hands while shaking her head vehemently.

Not long after that, Harrison appeared on the screen.

Susan sprang to her feet and clutched Harrison's sleeve desperately, her face contorting as she seemed to yell

something. Meanwhile, Harrison looked horrified and reluctant. Finally, he sighed and nodded.

The footage ended there.

Everything had happened just as Harrison had described it. Susan had pushed Yulia over the railing, then pressured

Harrison to be an accomplice.

As for Yulia, she was an innocent victim.

Natalie's head was lowered, hiding her expression from view. She did not utter a single word.

Shane watched her with a concerned look. “Nat, are you okay?”
