Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 1014
Stanley’s gaze flickered. “Something like that.”
“Forget it. That’s not important. What I’m more interested to know is why Jacqueline came to you for help in the first place? As far as I can remember, you were only her attending physician at one point, and you two weren’t particularly close with each other outside of that context.” Natalie narrowed her eyes suspiciously.
Stanley laughed quietly in response. “Well, I don’t know the reason either. Maybe she came to me because she had no one else to turn to.”
After a brief silence, she added, “You also mentioned that Jacqueline and Sean were allies. What do you mean by that?”
“I found that out by chance as well. They got into contact which each other once before you and Mr. Shane stopped talking to each other. Jacqueline gave Stanley a video, which he forwarded to Mr. Shane. It was after that that you and Mr. Shane started giving each other the silent treatment,” came Stanley’s reply.
Natalie’s pupils constricted. “A video? Could it be the one that—”
“Indeed, that’s the one.” Stanley nodded, acknowledging that he meant the video that was on Natalie’s mind.
Natalie’s hand shook as she gripped on her phone.
So it was Sean who sent that video.
However, what surprised her most was still Stanley.
Neither she nor Shane had known that Sean was the culprit behind it, yet Stanley did.
But how did he know all this?
“Are you still there, Nat?” Stanley asked.
Snapping out of her train of thoughts, she suppressed her suspicions as she mumbled into the phone, “Yeah, I’m still here, but I’ve got to go now. Talk to you another time, Stanley.”
“All right.” Stanley nodded with a smile.
After the call ended, Natalie put down her phone and pondered deeply about what she’d just learned.
She felt as if most of everything she knew was concealed by a thin veil, which obscured the essence of the truth within.
Every time she succeeded in peeling it away, she would only find layers and layers of those veils beneath the one she had just removed, making it impossible for her ever to grasp the truth.
This was especially true for Stanley’s case.
“What is there to be surprised about?” Shane raised his eyebrows questioningly.
Natalie furrowed her brows. “Aren’t you shocked that it was Sean and Jacqueline who had conspired to send you that video?”
Shane chuckled. “I’d guessed that earlier on. Not only that, but I’d also suspected Jacqueline had long since left J City.”
“Huh? You guessed that earlier on?” Natalie’s mouth fell open in bewilderment before she punched his chest angrily. “Then why didn’t you tell me so?”
“You were occupied with Harrison’s matters. I didn’t want to burden you further.” Shane wrapped her into his embrace and planted a soft kiss on her forehead.
The burning rage in her heart instantly subsided. Sighing, she stated, “I can’t believe there were things that happened between Jacqueline and Stanley that I don’t know about.”
“Don’t worry. We’ll get to the bottom of this,” Shane reassured her, squeezing her hand.
“All right.” She leaned her head against his chest. “What about the badge?”
Shane rested his chin on her head, rubbing it fondly, and reassured her, “I’ve asked Silas to look into it. I’m sure it’ll bear results soon.”
