Loretta shot to her feet, finger trembling as she pointed at Rachel, but no more words came
out,
Rachel was right. If what happened back then was exposed, it wasn’t just Jensen's position as CEO that would be
in jeopardy-she herself would be cast out of the Luke family.
Her face turned stormy.
“What do you want from me?”
Seeing Loretta soften, Rachel smirked. “Nothing too difficult. In half a month, the Stone family will hold their
recognition banquet. Within that time, | don’t care what you do-Natalie must meet with an accident. Crippled,
dead, it doesn’t matter. As long as the Stone family is devastated, that’s enough.”
“You're askingto commit a crime!”
Loretta wasn’t stupid. She realized instantly Rachel was using her as a weapon.
Rachel only laughed. “A crime? Was what we did over twenty years ago not a crime? If | expose it, your good
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdays are over. And when your son learns the truth, do you think he'll still be the devoted son you rely on?”
Her words struck Loretta right where it hurt.
Loretta bit her lip so hard it bled, but she couldn't strike back.
“I can deal with Natalie for you,” Loretta said through clenched teeth. “But Rachel, the events of twenty years
ago had better rot in your stomach. If | find out you betrayed me, or if word of that night leaks out, don’t blame
rope. Don't forget it.”
She flicked her sleeve angrily.
“And from now on, unless it's something major, don’t contact me. Once we step out of this room, we don’t know
each other. Whatever happens later, don’t dragdown with you. You remember our deal.”
Rachel smiled faintly. “Of course. | don’t want ties to you either-we’re from different worlds. I'll just wait for your
good news.”

“Hmph!”
Loretta stormed out.

Jensen quickly pulled the door shut and slipped into the neighboring room, watching through
the crack as Loretta left.
He didn’t follow right away. His mind was spinning.
In his eyes, Loretta had always been a pampered socialite, living under the Luke name, never meddling in shady
business. Yet here she was, tied up with Rachel-and connected to the baby swap involving Natalie more than
twenty years ago.
Who was Rachel really?
Jensen expected her to leave soon, but tdragged on. She never cout, and he couldn't risk barging in.
At that moment, his phone buzzed.
It was Hansel.
“Mr. Jensen, Ms. Stone's design fees have been fully transferred into her account. Do you want us to issue a
public clarification?”
“Of course.”
Jensen could shoulder the backlash and return Natalie what was rightfully hers, but Luke Corp couldn’t continue
carrying the blame. The matter had to be resolved.
He remembered Natalie mentioning she’d design Baron's cufflinks. But her fingers had been smashed by
Sharon-how could she possibly design anything now? Likely she'd asked that Yvonne woman to draft in her
stead. As long as it wasn’t Natalie's own hand, that was enough for him.
While his thoughts churned, Hansel added, “Understood. I'll inform PR. But Mr. Jensen, | just discovered
something-five years ago, when you crashed during that street race, it seems Witch Doctor was also there.”
Jensen’s eyes narrowed. “What did you say?”
If Witch Doctor had been at the scene of his accident, how could he not have known the extent of Jensen's
injuries? A doctor standing by, letting him suffer, and then using it as a chance to push Natalie into saving him...
Could that really be coincidence?

The suspicion flared in his mind, but Hansel wasn’t done.

“There's more. Years ago, when Ms. Stone went abroad to perform as a teenager, she missed the show because
she fell ill. Everyone thought it was sudden sickness, but | found it wasn’t- she'd been frightened, developed a
high fever, and never recovered in time. And apparently, Witch Doctor was also spotted near her hotel back
then.”
