Natalie felt a pang of pain in her shoulder, before discovering that her bag had been stolen.
Widening her eyes, she was stunned for a moment before quickly returning to her senses. She ran after that
person while yelling, “Help! Catch that thief!”
When the passers-by heard her yells, they all stopped to watch the spectacle. However, none of them stepped
forward to help.
Natalie's heart sank when she saw that. Not dwelling on it, she continued yelling and chasing after the thief.
She believed that there would be some people who were kind-hearted and helpful.
Indeed, while she pursued the thief relentlessly, someone actually helped her to chase him.
The person was extremely quick and caught up with the thief in a moment. After grappling with the thief for a
while, he successfully snatched the bag back.
Clutching his stomach, the thief hurled some insults at him before dashing into the crowd and disappearing.
Natalie ran to the kind bystander who helped her get her bag back. With her arms propped on her knees, she
panted heavily.

Natalie only caught her breath after resting for a while. Smiling gratefully, she said, “Thank you!”
Then, she took her bag from his hands.
He waved his hands dismissively. “You're welcome. It's only right to help those in need. Check and see if you're
missing anything.”
“Okay!” Natalie opened her bag and started checking it. Her phone, the evidence, her cosmetic products and
Shane's hair were still there.
Heaving a sigh of relief, she shut her bag happily. “Nothing's gone. Thank you! If I weren't rushing to pick my
children up now, I would definitely treat you to a meal. Since there's no time now, please accept this sum of money
as a token of my gratitude.”
With that, she passed him five hundred.
The person waved his hand and insisted that he did not need it.
However, as Natalie did not want to owe him a favor, she shoved the money to him before leaving.
The person kept staring at her back until she left. After she disappeared from his sight, a strange smile played on
his lips.
“I didn't expect to earn some money from putting up this act. I got hit by you a couple of times earlier, so you
should give me half of the money, right?” At that moment, someone suddenly walked out of the alley.
It was the thief from earlier.
He stared at the money in the man's hands greedily.
The man scoffed and handed three hundred over. “Here.”
“Nice.” The thief hurriedly stuffed the money into his pocket and asked, “Oh, right. You did as what our employer
instructed, and swapped it, right?”
The man took out a waterproof bag, which contained a few strands of hair, from his pocket. “Do you have to worry
when I'm the one doing it? Let's go and have a nice meal to treat ourselves. We'll report to our employer after
that.”
With that, both of them walked away side by side.
Meanwhile, Natalie had just fetched the children. She said to them, “Connor, Sharon, give me some strands of your
hair.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough Sharon did not know why her mother wanted her hair, she still plucked some strands out obediently and
passed them to her.
When Connor was passing his hair to Natalie, he suddenly asked, “Are you planning to conduct a DNA test for us
and Mr. Shane?”
Natalie looked at him in surprise. “How did you know?”
“I guessed it. Although I said that Sharon and I are not Mr. Shane's children that night, you did not believe it. That's
when I guessed that you'll definitely conduct a DNA test for us,” explained Connor proudly.
Natalie stroked his head. “Smart boy! Sit tight, I'm going to drive now.”
“Okay.” The kids nodded in unison.
Natalie started the engine and drove to the hospital instead of back to the villa.
It was another hospital, not Jackson's.
She wanted to hide this DNA test from everyone because she was afraid that someone would swap the DNA
samples.
Although it was quite unlikely, she had to be careful.
The results of the DNA test would only be out two days later.
Although Natalie thought that the waiting time was too long, she had no choice either.
