The doctor looked at the group before stating, “You must be his children.”
“Yes,” came Natalie's reply.
The doctor shook his head and said, “He doesn't have much time left; we're talking a matter of days. He's aware of
this, and he wanted me to tell you that his last wish is to witness his enemy's downfall.”
“His enemy's downfall?” Jared scratched his head and turned to Natalie. “Nat, what does he mean?”
Before Natalie could reply, Shane piqued up, “He's saying that to me.”
“What?” Jared was even more perplexed.
Natalie chuckled like she had realized something. “He's shameless, you know. Making our lives difficult even when
he's about to die.”
“Nat, what the heck are you all talking about?” Jared was dying of curiosity.
She glanced at Shane before looking at her brother apologetically. “Harrison knows that even if we hand in

by then, so he wants to see her receive her sentence in the next few days. Only someone as powerful as Shane can
exert his influence and hasten the process.”
“Ah, so that's why Shane said that Harrison's words were meant for him.” Jared nodded in understanding before
addressing Shane somewhat embarrassedly, “Sorry, Shane. You don't have to take his request seriously.”
“I know, but could you bear to see Harrison leave with regrets?” Shane's piercing gaze swept across Natalie and
Jared.
The siblings were struck silent.
They might have hated Harrison's guts, but he was their father at the end of the day. They hoped to send him off
without any regrets; it would be their final duties as his children before they cut ties with him for good.
Still, they felt bad about troubling Shane.
Shane frowned at the sight of the siblings' prolonged silence. He knew of their dilemma and offered a solution. “I
can always pop by and say hi to some people in the department. It's not a big deal.”
Natalie bit her lip and asked, “Darling, are you sure it's no trouble?”
“Of course.” He nodded for good measure.
After that, Natalie looked at Jared, who met her gaze and eventually nodded his assent.
With her mind made up, Natalie took a deep breath and stared at her husband. “In that case, thank you.”
Shane stroked her hair fondly and uttered, “You're my wife; nothing is too troublesome for me. We're in this
together.”
He was comforting her like how he coaxed Sharon. Natalie could not help but blush, especially since he was doing it
in front of Jared. She removed Shane's hand and whispered, “Jared's watching.”
Shane eyed Jared subtly, and the latter turned away instantly. “I can't see a thing.”
His tactfulness pleased Shane immensely.
Shane dropped a kiss on Natalie's forehead and asked, “Do you want to go home?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Let's head to the police station first.”
He agreed immediately. “Let's go then.”
However, Jared pointed at the ward and said, “Nat, I won't follow you. I'm too worried to leave him alone.”
Natalie was thinking the same thing, and she nodded in agreement. “Okay, you can stay here. Let me know ASAP if
anything happens.”
“I will,” Jared replied with a smile.
With that, Natalie and Shane left the hospital and set off for the police station.
Natalie handed in her evidence on Susan's crimes while Shane got in touch with the Garcias.
The Garcias were more than just a wealthy family in Jadeborough; they oversaw the judicial system in the nation.
The Garcias were their best hope at speeding up Susan's conviction.
The prominent family happened to require a large fund lately, and they immediately agreed to Shane's request
without batting an eyelid.
Susan's crimes were atrocious, and hastening the processing of Susan's case did little to change the outcome of
her sentencing. Even if anyone had objections, no one would voice it to the Garcias anyway.
