Shane chuckled and said, “Of course, I'll love you no matter how you look. Anyway, an overly kind person can
hardly survive in this world. It's good to stay like this.”
Natalie rested her head against his shoulder. “Well, when do we act? Should we inform Dr. Baker in advance?”
“In another few days, perhaps. We can solve the matter related to Alice first. As for Jackson, we can deal with him
later,” Shane said with pursed lips.
Natalie nodded and said, “All right. Since Alice has been staying in prison for quite some time, she should come out
now. Mrs. Brown must be anxiously waiting for her release.”
Then she stood up. “Let me call Mrs. Brown to relay the good news.”
Shane grunted in affirmation and said, “Sure.”
With that, Natalie grabbed her phone to make the call.
Just then, a thought flashed through his mind, and he quickly took out his to call his assistant.
“Mr. Thompson.”

Silas replied while he drove, “Yes, it's a camera with audio.”
“In that case, make a copy of the security footage, in which she admitted to her wrongdoings, and send it to the
police station. With that, Alice's case can be reopened,” Shane said.
“All right. I'll go to the police station later.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Shane ended the call, Natalie had also hung up.
He gazed at her and asked, “Are you done?”
“Yes. Mrs. Brown was emotional, and she almost burst into tears,” Natalie sat beside him and responded.
“I get it. After all, Alice is innocent. Mrs. Brown hopes to get her out, but she has to stay in prison for some time
because we haven't arrested Jacqueline. Now that Alice can be acquitted, Mrs. Brown will surely be emotional.”
“You're right.” Natalie put down her phone and flashed him a smile.
Shane wrapped his arms around her waist. “I just instructed Silas to visit the police station to request reopening
Alice's case.”
Her eyes sparkled upon hearing it. “That's good news, but when will she be released?”
“I'm not sure. Anyway, I think it won't be longer than two weeks,” he answered after giving it some thought.
Natalie narrowed her eyes at him meaningfully. “Do you mean you want to punish Jacqueline within this time?”
“Well, she has lived long enough,” Shane said coldly.
Since Sam is dead, I have partially avenged my parents. Now, I only have to send Jacqueline there to apologize to
them.
Besides, Mr. Graham and his wife must surely miss their daughter.
As Shane was deep in thought, Natalie heaved a sigh and said, “You're right. Some people tend to create trouble for
the world if they live longer.”
“By the way, do you remember what Jacqueline told you before? What do you intend to do about it?”
Natalie could read his mind instantly. “Are you referring to what Stanley has done?”
Shane fell silent.

the call. I've heard from Joyce that he left J City to look for the culprit. Anyway, when I knew he had left, I felt
relieved somehow because I didn't know how I could face him. Thanks to him, Connor got into a car accident, my
warehouse was burned down, and all fabrics were destroyed. I hate him deep in my heart. However, Connor,
Sharon, and I would have been dead if it weren't for him five years ago. Hence, I don't know how I should deal with
it.”
Knowing that she felt conflicted, Shane's gaze darkened. “If you don't know how to deal with it, allow me.”
“You?” She was startled for a while upon hearing it. Gazing at his cold face, her heart suddenly pounded. “Darling,
are you planning to... do that?”
After showing a throat-slitting gesture, Natalie shook her head a few times and added, “Don't do it. I still owe him.
Hence, we can't do such a cruel thing to him.”
“Why do you have such a thought? I won't kill him. As you said, he saved you and the kids before. I will remember
his act of kindness. However, Connor got into an accident, and your sweat and blood were destroyed because of
him. All these have canceled off his kindness to you. I will ask him to go abroad and never return.”
