Chapter 881

Taken aback for a moment, Sally hastily explained, “That wasn’t my boyfriend. He was just my…”

“Ahem.” Natalie quickly interrupted her with a light cough. “That’s enough, so let’s just end the subject
here. Don’t blurt everything out and corrupt my children.”

Realizing her near gaffe, Sally chuckled apologetically. “Oops, my bad. Anyway, come and eat.”

Shane pulled a chair out for Natalie.

It wasn’t until Natalie had sat down did he pull out the chair beside her and took his seat.

After breakfast, Sally took the children out to play, knowing that Natalie and Shane had no time to
accompany them since they had to stay and deal with the incident yesterday.

Thus, the responsibility of caring for them naturally fell on her as the subordinate who was mooching off
them.

“Mr. Shane.” Silas came over.

Handing a peeled apple to Natalie, Shane snagged a piece of tissue and wiped his hands languidly. “Go
on.”

“Governor Stephen asked me to inform you that the matter has been dealt with. The obstetrics and
gynecology departments in the few hospitals involved have been replaced with new staff while the
original staff are now in prison. Besides, Dr. Brandt says that he has operated on the doctor and nurse.
Also…”



“Also?” Natalie prompted.



“Also, Dr. Brandt says that he has also operated on the rest of the doctors in the obstetrics and
gynecology department in his hospital. He hopes that you’ll both be satisfied with this outcome,” Silas
blurted.

Since Madam scheduled her operation at Dr. Brandt’s hospital, their animosity toward the hospital will
definitely be much greater compared to other hospitals after the incident. Hence, he had no other choice
but to do that to alleviate their fury.

Shane smiled upon hearing that. “I merely told him to operate on the doctor and nurse, but I never
thought that he’s actually so shrewd and operated on all the doctors in the obstetrics and gynecology
department in his hospital. Well, that’s smart of him. Tell him that I won’t take action against him anymore
regarding this matter.”

As everyone involved in the matter had paid the price, they could naturally draw the curtains.

“Understood. I’ll convey it to him shortly. Apart from that, we’ve made the calculations according to the
information from Governor Stephen, and Sean spent a total of thirty million to bribe everyone involved.”

Natalie gasped incredulously. “Thirty million? Good God, that’s a fortune!”

No wonder all those medical practitioners succumbed to temptation. After all, few would be unmoved in
the face of such a hefty sum. What was more, it would’ve been a piece of cake for them since patients
would trust them unconditionally, believing everything they say. If I hadn’t overheard the conversation
between the doctor and nurse before losing consciousness, I would’ve surely lost my child, and I
wouldn’t even have known that it was never deformed. Hence, they couldn’t possibly refuse such an
easy job.

“Sean is very talented in business and has many industries under his name, so it’s no sweat off his back
to spent thirty million,” Shane proclaimed coldly.



Then, he looked at Silas. “Have you ascertained his motive in doing so?”

Ultimately, he wanted to know whether Sean did that so that he would be childless.

“Yes. According to the statements from the medical staff and the professional profiler, the reason he did
so is theorized to be…”

Seemingly conflicted, Silas raked a hand through his hair and said nothing for a long time.

Every so often, his gaze darted to Natalie.

Wholly bewildered, Natalie questioned, “Don’t tell me it was because of me?”

“I’m afraid so.” Silas nodded.

Hearing that, Natalie eyes widened.

Huh? Is he for real?

As something abruptly occurred to Shane, his hands clenched into fists, and his expression turned grim.
“Just say it.”

Grunting in acquiescence, Silas then blurted, “Madam, Sean did so because he has feelings for you.
Thus, he didn’t want you to have Mr. Shane’s child.”

Boom! That statement detonated like a bomb.

Natalie was wholly stupefied as though having been struck by a bolt of lightning.
