“True.” Lina nodded, then furrowed her brows and asked, “By the way, you sent someone to pick up Stanley. Is he coming here?”

“Mm-hmm,” Natalie responded.

Lina pursed her lips. “What is he doing here? Isn't he supposed to be taking care of Joyce? He put in so much effort to find her, and now he's coming over. What's he up to?”

Natalie smiled and said, “He's here to help.”

“Help?” Lina was taken aback. “What kind of help?”

“Shane's duel with Sean is bound to result in injuries. He's a doctor, so he came over to help,” Natalie explained.

Lina suddenly realized. “So that's how it is. I thought he came over to cause trouble for you, considering you helped Joyce escape from him before.”

“Yeah, I was also surprised when he suddenly came here. When I heard he came to help, I felt relieved. Besides, it's actually great that he's here. I have a few things I'd like to ask him.”

Speaking of that, Natalie narrowed her eyes and pursed her red lips.

She wanted to know why he kidnapped Connor and burnt down her company's factory, causing her

such significant losses.

She should have asked him about these issues earlier, but he was always with Joyce, and Natalie did not want to disturb them.

Sometimes, she could not get in touch with him.

Thus, the discussion dragged on until now, and she still had not asked him for clarification.

Now that he was here, she had the perfect opportunity.

“What is it about?” Lina asked with some curiosity.

Lina eventually became friends with Natalie but had never met Stanley. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Lina only knew a little about the grievances between Stanley, Natalie, and Joyce.

She mostly knew about the grievances between Stanley and Joyce because Natalie frequently mentioned them.

As for Stanley, Lina mainly knew him through word of mouth and did not have much of a good impression of him.

Judging by Natalie's current expression, it seemed she would not be asking about anything good.

Upon hearing Lina's question, Natalie fell silent for a few seconds before responding, “It's something I still can't figure out to this day.”

Immediately after, she briefly explained the situation.

Although she described it casually, as if it were just a simple matter like the weather, it still left Lina astonished and unable to calm down for quite some time when she heard the story.

“Oh my God, he actually did that to Connor?” Lina exclaimed, standing up from the couch in shock. The tablet in her hand slipped and fell onto the sofa.

Natalie nodded. “Yes. I always thought the one who kidnapped Connor and caused his car accident was either Jasmine, Jacqueline, or Harrison and his group. I never expected it to be Stanley, who had always been kind to Connor. I still can't understand why this happened. Before Connor knew Shane was his father, he had always treated Stanley like a father. Yet, it was Stanley who hurt Connor and his young, fragile heart. This makes me feel very upset, but I can't bring myself to resent Stanley.”

“Why is that?” Lina asked, puzzled.

She would not care if the person hurting her child was a friend if it were her. She would cut ties with them immediately and never associate with them again.

Hence, she found it hard to understand why Natalie was still in touch with Stanley.

“Because Stanley is the savior of our family of three.” Natalie rubbed her temples and said, “When I was pregnant with Connor and Sharon abroad six years ago, my health wasn't very good. I was even at risk of losing both children due to excessive stress. If it were not for Stanley, the three of us might not be here today. Moreover, my mother was also sick at that time, and it was Stanley who arranged for a doctor to save her. You could say that Stanley saved all four of us in our family. How could I hate him?”

“This...” Lina was at a loss for words. After a while, she nodded. “Indeed, you can't hate him. This really is an unsolvable dilemma.”
