As Sally stepped aside to make the call, Natalie received an incoming video call from Shane.
It should be midnight where he is. He must've found out about the package if he's calling me at this
hour...
Natalie let out a sigh at the thought of that.
“What's with the package?” Shane asked with a gloomy expression as he leaned against the
headboard of his bed in his black pajamas.
“Did the bodyguards tell you about it?” Natalie responded to his question with another one.
Shane jutted his chin out and said, “Yes.”
He had been sleeping soundly when he got a call from the bodyguards. Needless to say, he had been
really shocked when they told him about the disgusting package Natalie received.
That was why he immediately gave her a video call to ask about it.
“Someone pulled a prank on me,” Natalie replied while rubbing her forehead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShane frowned instantly. “Who? Sean or Jacqueline?”
They were both suspecting the same people.
Natalie shook her head. “I'm not sure if they're the ones behind this, but the possibility is pretty high.”
I don't have many enemies in this city, so Jasmine, Sean, and Jacqueline are the most likely suspects. Jasmine is
locked up in a mental hospital without any money and has no means of contacting anyone outside, so she obviously
couldn't have done this. That leaves us with Sean and Jacqueline, but we haven't found any evidence to prove
they're the ones who did it.
As Solly stepped oside to moke the coll, Notolie received on incoming video coll from Shone.
It should be midnight where he is. He must've found out obout the pockoge if he's colling me ot this hour...

Shane tightened his grip on the phone and asked, “What was inside the package?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe bodyguards had only told him it was a disgusting package, but they didn't know what was inside
as the housekeepers had taken care of it very quickly.
“It was a dead cat,” Natalie replied, rubbing her stomach to resist the urge to throw up from disgust.
The look in Shane's eyes grew icy-cold immediately upon hearing that. “A dead cat...”
“Yeah...” Natalie nodded.
Feeling a little worried, Shane asked, “Did it scare you?”
“No, I didn't see the cat because Sal opened it for me. She saw it and got really shaken up,” Natalie
said apologetically while looking in Sally's direction.
Shane knew Natalie was feeling guilty about Sally being frightened by a package meant for her.
“Don't worry, I'll have someone send her some stuff as compensation later,” Shane said.
Natalie nodded with a smile. “Okay. I'm sure Sal will be happy to hear that.”
“It won't be easy to catch Sean and Jacqueline if they truly are the ones behind this. I believe they'll
continue to do this, so make sure you don't open any more packages like that yourself. Always have
the bodyguards open it first, okay?” Shane said.
Shane tightened his grip on the phone and asked, “What was inside the package?”
