Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 984
He pursed his lips and countered with a question of his own. “Do you?”
Natalie lowered her gaze. “Actually, I also have a feeling that the Grahams didn’t do anything to harm your parents.
I’m leaning more toward another suspect, which is Jacqueline herself. The most telling reason being what Mrs.
Larson overheard, about Mrs. Graham questioning Jacqueline why she killed them. Judging from this, it would seem
that Mr. Graham and Mrs. Graham themselves were not involved.”
“Even if they were not directly responsible, they did help with the cover-up, didn’t they?” Shane replied blandly as
he rotated the steering wheel.
Natalie’s lips stiffened. There was nothing she could say in response to that.
That’s true. The Grahams were not exactly innocent parties even if they had no part in what Jacqueline did entirely
on her own. They were, however, complicit in protecting the culprit. This effectively made them accomplices in
their own rights.
They both kept their thoughts to themselves the rest of the journey, but it did not take long before they arrived at

Shane was first to alight. He then circled round to Natalie’s side to open up the door for her.
Having also been informed of Shane’s visit, the Larsons likewise came out to receive him when they heard the
sound of his car’s approach.
An attractive woman in her fifties, Marjorie’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Natalie. “This must be Mrs.
Thompson. I’ve heard many things before meeting you for the first time today, but my word, you’re simply too
gorgeous.”
That put a blush upon Natalie’s cheeks. “You flatter me, Mrs. Larson.”
“Honest to god, I wasn’t exaggerating at all. You really are an absolute stunner. You, Mr. Shane, are a very lucky
man indeed,” said Majorie teasingly.
Shane’s lips, too, lifted into a slight smile. “Thank you, Mrs. Larson.”
“Oh, don’t mention it. Now quickly, let’s head inside.” The vivacious woman then ushered them into the house.
Once inside, Marjorie served up some refreshments before she continued, “I’ve been informed by your assistant
that you wanted to see me, Mr. Shane. May I know what is it that you wish to ask?”
“It concerns Jacqueline,” Shane replied.
There was a shift in Marjorie’s expression, and she did not look comfortable. “J-Jacqueline Graham?”
“Yes.” Shane pursed his lips in response to Marjorie’s peculiar body language.
It occurred to him that she must know something, as the mention of Jacqueline’s name would not have prompted
such an extreme reaction from her otherwise.
“What is it that you like to know about her?” Marjorie lifted her cup to her lips and took a swig from it. She eked out
a stiff smile as she tried to keep her unease in check.
Shane then looked to Natalie who swept back her own tresses back before she spoke. “It’s like this, Mrs. Larson. Do
you used to know Mrs. Brown quite well?”
“Mrs. Brown? Might you be referring to the Brown family who became insolvent?” said Marjorie as she met her
eyes.
“Yes, that’s right.” Affirmed Natalie with a nod.
“I used to until they declared bankruptcy and moved away, and we’ve lost contact with them ever since. What has
this got to do with the questions you wanted to ask about Jacqueline, though?” Marjorie replied genially.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Quite a lot, actually. I’ve met with Mrs. Brown previously, and she told me that she heard something pertaining to
Jacqueline right here at your place. Specifically, it has to do with a fatal incident that Jacqueline caused some
eighteen years ago. We’ve come to you in the hope of being able to better understand what that was about,”
Natalie explained.
Shane then regarded Marjorie intently. “Mrs. Brown mentioned that you’ve happened to have overheard it in
passing, so I’d like for you to tell me everything that you’ve learned.”
With her head bowed in silence, it was difficult to guess what was going through Marjorie’s mind.
That prompted Natalie to tighten her grip on her own hands. “Please, Mrs. Larson. This is very important to us.”
The woman looked up, first at Natalie, then at Shane, and exhaled. It would seem that she had sorted out her own
thoughts. “You wish to find out whether Jacqueline has anything to do with your parent’s death, is that it?” Upon
hearing that, Shane and Natalie exchanged knowing looks.
It was apparent to them that this woman before them definitely knew something that they did not.
“So you do know that Jacqueline had something to do with my parents’ death.” Shane glared at Marjorie coldly.
Marjorie averted her gaze. “Yes. Yes, I do.”
“Yet, you kept quiet about it in spite of everything, and only told it to Mrs. Brown and the others. Whose death did
Jacqueline cause, exactly?” Natalie asked once more.
