Chapter 860

“Well, since you know about this, then you should also know that Shane had found the culprit
responsible for his parent’s death. It’s your dad, am I right?” Natalie asked. “Yea, I do. Shane went crazy
some time ago as he tried to bring down my father’s business until he was bankrupt. My father’s
reputation was also greatly tarnished. How could I not know?” Sean responded calmly.

Natalie placed her utensils down. “Aren’t you afraid that he might strike you next?”

“Why should I?” Sean laughed.

“Shane will destroy your entire family, you know?” Natalie answered.

The smile Sean had on his face was instantly wiped away at that. He recalled the good memories he
once shared with Shane as a hint of nostalgia flashed before his eyes and disappeared. “From the
moment my father made that decision, I knew that our families would no longer be the same. It would
either be him or us who’s going to face the end. But I’m prepared for it, so why should I be afraid?”

Speaking of which, Shane’s parents treated me like their own. Dad would always stay out late as he
indulged in women while Mom would be on the hunt to catch him. Hence, Shane’s parents took me in
and cared for me like their own son. If I knew what my Dad was going to do, I would have stopped him.

But it’s all too late now…

“So you’re ready to face what’s coming for you?” Natalie stirred her soup.

Sean smirked. “Yes. But there’s one thing you should know.”

“What is it?” Natalie stared at him.





“While it’s true that my father did hire someone to hit Shane’s parents with a car, there’s actually another
culprit behind this murder.” Sean’s eyes glinted.

Natalie’s eyes widened. “What do you mean?”

Another culprit? Does that mean Sam wasn’t the only one responsible for the death of Shane’s parents?

“That’s right. It is exactly what you think it is.” Sean leaned back as he watched Natalie’s stunned
expression.

“How can I trust you?” She clenched her fists.

“It’s doesn’t matter if you believe me or not as I’m just letting you know. Back then, someone used Shane
to lure his parents to that road so the men my father hired could complete their task easily,” Sean
explained and took a sip of wine.

Natalie’s heart was racing. The dining area was rather noisy, yet she could clearly hear her heartbeat
pumping loudly.

“Who was it?” Natalie swallowed.

Sean looked at her and shrugged. “I won’t tell you who that person is. You’ll need to find that out on your
own. The only thing I can tell you is that it’s someone you least expected it to be.”

Someone we’d least expect? Urgh, I don’t understand what this means. Natalie pursed her lips in
frustration.

I hate it when he leads me on like this. I’m trying so hard to resist the urge of smacking him.

Natalie took a deep breath to suppress the urge to hit him and scowled. “Then why are you telling me all
this? You could have stayed silent about it.”



‘Why?” Sean adjusted his glasses. “Perhaps I thought it was unfair that Shane’s only taking his revenge
on us while the other culprit lives a free life.”

“I see.” Natalie curled her lips. “If so, why don’t you just tell me who the person is. That way, Shane could
have his revenge on that person, too. It would balance things out between you two.”

“I can’t do that. After all, I planned to watch you both slowly find your way to the culprit. It’d be a pleasant
thing for me to witness.” Sean smiled devilishly.

Natalie secretly rolled her eyes again and decided to ignore him.

Meanwhile, Jessie was walking out of a private room and was about to leave the hotel with an older man
in hand when she caught sight of Natalie.

She panicked and instinctively let go of the man’s arm. She didn’t want Natalie to spot her with the man.

“What’s wrong, babe?” The older man frowned and was displeased with Jessie’s evasive actions.
