Chapter 994

Chapter 994Natalie and Jared entered the ward after the police officers, and they were shocked to see Susan's
hands wrapped around Harrison's neck.
She tried to kill him!
Susan had never expected anyone to burst into the ward during her attempted murder. The sight of
police officers was an even greater shock to her system, and she subconsciously loosened her hands
around Harrison's neck.
Meanwhile, Harrison was coughing profusely and gasping for air. He managed to laugh out loud and
mock, “Dear Susan, you're paying the price for your sins right now!”
At that moment, Susan's mouth gaped open and then close again like a fish.
She was frightened by the gun barrels pointed at her, and she worried that one slight movement would
cause the officers to pull the trigger.
Susan's greed came hand-in-hand with a hefty dose of timidity, which fueled her irrational fear of the
officers shooting her on the spot.
The police officers kept their guns after seeing Susan frozen like a deer in headlights. They then
stepped forward and grabbed her.
The motion seemed to snap Susan out of her trance. She looked at Harrison and wailed hysterically,
“Darling, please save me! I don't want to go to jail! Please help me! Tell them I was just joking around. I
didn't mean to kill you. Darling!”
With Jared's help, Harrison sat up in bed and said, “Officers, please escort this woman away. She tried
to kill me.”The officers nodded in unison. “Don't worry, Sir. We all saw it.”
Susan showed her true colors when she realized that begging Harrison to save her was a futile effort.
She screeched, “Harrison, how could you do this to me? F*ck you! I hope you rot in h*ll! Did you hear
that, Harrison? Rot in h*ll!”
Her shrieks faded as she was escorted away by the officers.
Only then did Natalie approach the hospital bed, staring at her dying father with an indecipherable
expression on her face. She asked, “You did that on purpose, didn't you?”
Harrison's eyes twinkled.
A confused Jared spoke up. “Nat, what do you mean 'on purpose'?”
Natalie looked at Harrison and explained, “He wanted us to bring some police officers here at two
sharp to catch Susan in the act. He called her here and provoked her into attacking him. With so many
witnesses to her attempted murder, Susan will surely get a heavier sentence. Along with her poisoning
of Harrison and involvement in Mom's death, Susan's bound for the gallows.”
Jared finally understood Harrison's motives.
Still, he turned to Harrison for confirmation. “Is that true?”
Harrison smiled weakly and replied, “She's right. That's exactly what I planned, and it's also the least I
could do.”

Natalie immediately pointed at the hospital bedframe and said, “Jared, call the doctor.”
“Got it.” Jared nodded and hurriedly pressed the emergency call button.The doctor arrived quickly, then Natalie and Jared were asked to leave the ward.
Just then, Shane and Silas approached them. “We saw Susan being brought away from the hospital.
What happened?”
Natalie sighed deeply before recounting everything that had happened in Harrison's ward.
Shane narrowed his eyes in thought. “He did this to avenge himself and atone for his wrongdoings
toward your mother.”
“What's the point of atonement? Mom's never coming back,” Natalie said bitterly.
Shane squeezed her hand and comforted her, “It's okay. You still have me.”
She smiled at him gratefully. “I do.”
Meanwhile, Jared glanced at the ward before asking, “Nat, what's going to happen now that Susan's
arrested?”
“I have evidence of her pushing Mom down the stairs and of her poisoning Harrison. I'll submit
evidence at the police station soon, and then we'll wait for them to hand down her sentence,” Natalie
answered in improved spirits.
He nodded at his sister's words. “Okay. I understand.”
Soon, the doctor came out of the ward.
Natalie asked, “Doctor, how is he doing?”
