It did not take long to play those two recordings.
When Harrison heard the recordings, he fell back into the chair, his face ashen.
I am doomed!
The online viewers and reporters were all dumbfounded.
“Oh my god! So Ms. Natalie is telling the truth!” A reporter snapped out of the state of shock and exclaimed loudly.
“Yes! Who would expect Mr. Smith would do such a thing?” The room was in an uproar.
The recordings left no doubt as to what really happened. Jasmine and her mom were being investigated. Harrison
pressured Natalie to withdraw charges and lie to the police so they could be released. When Natalie rejected his
demands, he despicably made those false accusations, hoping she would cave in under the negative publicity.
Instantly, there was a change in public sentiment. The condemnation of the Smith family came fast and furious.

Susan's Facebook accounts were all under attack. The Smiths became a trending topic.
Harrison had infuriated the public. He misled them and made use of them to pressure Natalie. The netizens were
angry at being manipulated. Their anger was obvious in their comments. The comments were much more
venomous than those directed at Natalie.
Joyce came running to Natalie with her laptop in hand. “Look, Nat, the tide has turned. Look at those vicious attacks
on Harrison!”
Natalie took a glance and coldly uttered, “Serve him right. He asked for it!”
“Yup, you are right!” Joyce was elated.
The two ladies did not bother to speak in a hushed tone so the viewers heard them. No one could dispute Natalie's
statement. Indeed, Harrison brought that upon himself.
Harrison heard them too. “A**holes!” he screamed. He was trembling with rage as he watched a barrage of
damning comments popped up on his screen. His housekeeper was worried he may faint from anger and gave him
some medicine.
“So do you believe I am innocent now?” Natalie picked up her microphone and cheerfully asked the reporters.
“Of course! Please accept our apologies for the misunderstanding.” The reporters felt bad about what they had
written.
One after another, the media and viewers on live stream started posting apologies. Accounts on various social
media platforms started taking down their earlier posts about her.
It was too late for some though. Joyce had already taken screenshots of the many insulting posts by the trolls.
“Ms. Natalie is indeed impressive! She settled the issue with just two recordings.” Silas was impressed and he
praised, as they watched Natalie on her live stream.

“Harrison's stupidity helped too.” Shane mocked, leisurely sipping on his coffee.
“True. He left incriminating evidence with that two phone calls.” Silas laughed out loud.
Soon, the reporters started interviewing Natalie after offering their apologies at the press conference. “Ms. Natalie,
you said other than proving your innocence, the recordings will reveal the reason for your animosity with Ms.
Jasmine. There was no clear mention of that in the recordings. We heard you called Mr. Smith 'dad'. Are you and
Ms. Jasmine sisters?”
“Yes, but we are half-sisters. My mom was Harrison's legal wife while her mom was his mistress, so technically, I am
the legitimate heiress of the Smith Group,” Natalie announced.
That revelation stunned everyone.
All these years, the public only knew that the Smith family had one daughter. It was a big surprise to have another
person claiming to be Harrison's daughter. What was more shocking was her claim to be the rightful heir.
