Chapter 1006

Chapter 1006“Her body is failing due to overthinking, and the fear she has in her heart is eating her up from the
inside.”
“Oh, I see.” Joyce nodded.
Natalie took a few steps forward and stopped in front of the glass window. Then, she picked up the
phone receiver.
Susan, who sat behind the glass window, also picked up the one on her end.
“You wanted to see me? What is it?” Natalie asked.
Susan did not say a word as she held the receiver and stared at her coldly.
Natalie frowned at the woman before her. “If you have nothing to say, then I'm leaving.”
With that, she gestured to hang up.
Susan tightened her grip on the receiver when she realized Natalie meant it. “Wait,” she called out.
“I guess you do have something to say.” Natalie put the receiver to her ear.
Susan took a deep breath. “How's Harrison?”
Natalie raised an eyebrow. “I'm surprised you even mentioned him. I thought you hated him for what he
did to you.”
“You're right. I do hate him. But, I want to know if he's dead or not,” Susan replied with a scowl.
Natalie's eyes darkened. “Well, my question is, do you think he's dead? Or rather, do you want him
dead?”“Aren't you stating the obvious? Look at her face. I bet she hopes your dad's long gone,” Joyce
interrupted.
“Yes, I how I wished he was dead. Why should I be imprisoned here and face a death sentence while
he's out there living a free life! That's so unfair!” Susan's hand trembled slightly.
“I disagree. Although Harrison isn't a good guy, he has never done anything against the law. Even
Warren, too, didn't. You got yourself into this mess, so you deserved to be locked up in here and no
one else. How dare you speak of fairness before everyone else?” Natalie stared at her coldly.
Susan's expression went grim. “Yes, I was behind everything! But you forced me into it! If it weren't for
you...”

you to become a mistress? Did she force you to have an affair with Warren? Did she also force you to
drug Harrison and strangle him to death? No! You did all of that based on your own decision! So, stop
putting the blame on others!”
“Joyce's right. Your greed led you to your downfall. Even if you didn't go after Harrison and weren't
Harrison's mistress, your greed for money would have made you do the same thing. The only
difference would be the guy you'd go after. You would still be a mistress to another man, drug him,
attempt to inherit their assets, and go to jail.”
“That's not true!” Susan yelled at Natalie angrily.
“You'd know all too well if I'm lying or not. Just admit it. This is your true self. It doesn't matter who the
guy is; you'll still end up in prison. So, don't go blaming others because you can only blame yourself for
what you have done. Greed is your ultimate enemy.”“No... No...” Susan shook her head repeatedly.
Yet, she couldn't deny the fact that Natalie was right. Even if she didn't go after Harrison twenty years
ago but someone else, her fate would still be the same.
“Forget it. There's no point talking about this now. Since you're here and you're facing the death
sentence tomorrow, I'll tell you what you want to know. Harrison's dead,” Natalie said in a deep voice.
“What did you say? Harrison's dead?” Susan looked up in disbelief.
“That's right. He died a couple of days ago,” Natalie replied as she clenched her hands around the
receive.
Joyce could tell that Natalie wasn't as cold as she seemed.
She was definitely saddened by Harrison's death. He was her father, after all.
Joyce then patted Natalie's shoulder as a sign of comfort.
