Chapter 753 Apology

Kenneth was naturally not going to tell what he did in the past to those three elders.

His outburst shocked the three elders and caused Natalie to almost choke on her coffee.

The coffee spilled out of the edge of her mouth. Before she could wipe it away, Samuel’s slim, clean fingers had

already stretched toward her and tried to wipe it for her.

Her heart skipped a beat as she shot him a glare to warn him about the many eyes watching them. Yet, he kept

smiling at her, unfazed.

The three elders lowered their heads when Kenneth scolded them, so they didn’t notice that.

“We did what we did because we cared about you, Mr. Kenneth…” Miguel explained in a small voice as his face

turned pale.

“You bullied my precious granddaughter-in-law. Even If my grandson didn’t try to pick a fight with you, I wouldn’t

have let you all go easily.” Kenneth pointed at the three elders. “She gave birth to four great-grandchildren for me

and saved my life twice. It’s not an exaggeration to say she’s the Bowers family’s benefactor!”

When the three elders heard what he said, their hearts were already like a pool of stagnant water because they

were already numb from the shock.

Natalie had repeatedly exceeded their expectations and embarrassed them. At that moment, even if they were told

that she was an alien, they would’ve just nodded obediently and believed it.

After a while, the three elders recovered from their shock and calmed down. They then asked an important

question. “We saw you stop breathing, Mr. Kenneth. How did you come back from the dead? Where have you been

in the past two weeks you went missing? Why didn’t you contact us to let us know you’re still alive? We were

worried sick.”

Even Samuel was curious. He knew his grandfather’s death had nothing to do with Natalie and that Yara was the

true culprit. He also knew that whoever was backing Yara was involved, but that was the extent of his knowledge. It

never occurred to him that Natalie could surprise him like that.

Kenneth took a sip of the coffee and explained slowly, “I trusted Jefford completely, and yet he betrayed me. The

person who detected something amiss was Sophia. She called me and told me not to take the medicine because

one of the ingredients seemed off. I launched my own investigation and confirmed what she said. So, in order to

gain a clearer perspective on everyone around me, I played along with Natalie. The medicine I took last was one

that would fake my death. The symptoms that you three observed were merely the effects of the medicine. I didn’t

actually stop breathing.”

“As for why I didn’t show up, well…” He smiled. “Faking my death allowed me to see the picture a lot clearer. On

one hand, I was going to use this opportunity to observe who’s loyal to me and who’s merely feigning it. On the

other hand, there were still traces of poison inside my body. I’ve been following Natalie’s medical advice to recover.

I didn’t want to show myself before I was well again. These two weeks of recuperation had done wonders for my

body. Don’t you all notice that I looked healthier than before? This is the first time my body feels so well in ages.”

When the three elders heard what he said, they studied how he looked with greater scrutiny. Indeed, he looked

younger and much more energetic, which in turn made them envious. However, when they thought about the

mockery and accusations they flung at Natalie, they didn’t have the nerve to ask her to examine their health, even

if they really wanted to.

The elders talked to Kenneth for a little longer before leaving the residence. Before they did, Samuel reminded,

“Now that the records have been set straight, where’s the apology you three promised? Isn’t it time for you three

to fulfill your promise?”

Natalie’s eyes widened. I’d already forgotten all about that, yet Samuel still remembered it.

Before she managed to speak, Kenneth stroked his beard and nodded. “My grandson is right. You three need to

apologize to her before you leave.”
