Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookNatalie let go of Jasmine’s hair. “I’m not giving the money back because I deserve it.”
Jasmine refused to accept that. “Do you? As you said, the Smith family has nothing to do with you
anymore, so what right do you have to take that twenty million from Dad? That money should be mine!
Mine!”
Jasmine was in need of money. She was trying to figure out how to get it when she heard from Susan
that Natalie demanded twenty million from their father that morning.
Refusing to let Natalie get away with it, Jasmine tracked her stepsister down to get the money back,
only to get rejected.
“Your money?” Natalie felt as if she had heard the worst joke of her life. “Let’s ask Dad then, and we’ll
see who the money belongs to,” suggested Natalie before taking her phone out of her bag to call
Harrison.
The man was quick to answer the call but sounded impatient. “What do you want? Are you asking for
more?”
“You have misunderstood me, Dad. I’m not asking for more money. However, Jasmine’s here, and
she’s demanding that I give her the twenty million. She said it should be hers.” Natalie could feel that
Jasmine was struggling again, so she moved her knee and sat on top of her stepsister instead.
To Jasmine, that was an act of humiliation. Her eyes turned bloody red in anger, but still, she failed to
break free. All she could do was scream with all her might.
Harrison got worried the moment he heard the scream. “What did you do to your sister, Natalie?”“Don’t worry, Dad. She’s more than fine! Now tell us who the twenty million belongs to.” Natalie then
turned on the speakerphone and placed it beside Jasmine’s ear.
“It’s yours,” sighed Harrison.
“Dad?” Jasmine called out to her father in disbelief. “Why? She’s not your daughter anymore, so why
are you giving her so much money?”
“You know nothing, so just shut up!” rebuked Harrison.
Jasmine sneered, “I don’t care. I won’t let you give her the money! No!”
“Dad’s not going to listen to you.” Natalie took her phone back. “Do you know why? Because Dad will
lose even more if he takes the money back. Not only will he lose his reputation, but your mother will
also be accused of murder.”
When Harrison heard that on the other end of the phone, the corner of his mouth twitched as his face
darkened.
Jasmine was puzzled. “What are you saying?”
“I’m saying that your mother tried to kill me last night, and she almost killed Mr. Shane too,” replied
Natalie softly.
Although her voice sounded soft, it sent nothing but chills down Jasmine’s spine.
“That’s impossible!” Refusing to believe Natalie, Jasmine shook her head violently.
“Suit yourself.” Natalie turned off the speakerphone and placed the phone back on her ear. “That’s all,
Dad. Bye.”After hanging up, Natalie got off her stepsister.
Jasmine sat up when she was finally free and glared at her stepsister with clenched fists. “You said that
Shane almost got killed too. That means he was with you last night. What did you two do?”
Natalie furrowed her brows. “You don’t seem concerned about his safety. Instead of asking if he’s hurt,
you’re asking about what we did. It makes me wonder if you really love him.”
“That’s none of your business! Why do you care if I love Shane?” Natalie’s scrutinizing gaze made
Jasmine look away, so she could immediately tell that her stepsister did not love Shane very much.
Otherwise, Jasmine would not have cheated on Shane. It seems that I have to inform Shane of this
matter soon.
Natalie then chuckled in response. “I don’t. It’s just that I feel sad for Mr. Shane for having a fiancée like
you, but that’s okay, because he’ll find out about what you did soon.”
Jasmine’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. “What does that mean? What did I do?”
“I’m sure you know.” Natalie dusted her hands off once again before turning to leave.
