If she posted a message , why don't you just call her directly ? " " She is Natalie ! " Jensen's eyes burned with a feverish light . " Natalie isn't dead . She's alive ! " His intensity made Hansel uneasy . " Mr. Luke , maybe the account was hacked . Miss Natalie really did die that night ." He wanted to add more - that the fire had left nothing , no trace of escape , only remains .
But Jensen wasn't listening . " I don't care ! Trace the IP . Wherever that login came from , that's where she is ! " Hansel sighed , helpless . " Alright . I'll start the search . " He slipped out , leaving Jensen alone with the bandaged stump of his finger . Jensen stared down at it , laughing and crying in turns . " Natalie ... you hate me enough to take a piece of me , but you're still here . " Across town , Sharon saw the same update and froze . " No. No , that slut can't be alive . Impossible ! This isn't her - it's Jensen , it has to be !
" She paced like a caged animal , clutching her phone as if she could crush the tweet out of existence . Mrs. Summers , overhearing , stiffened . " Natalie ... you're saying Natalie is alive ? Is it true ? " " False ! " Sharon exploded . She lunged at her mother , fisting her collar and yanking her close . " You still think of her , don't you ? The day you let me whip her , she learned to hate you ! And you dare dream of fixing things now ? Foolish old woman ! " Mrs. Summers wheezed , wracked with coughs . Her health had been failing , weakness dragging her lower each day .
Sharon's impatience had only grown crueler . If she was treated like this now , while she could still walk , what would happen once she was bedridden ? Her thoughts drifted back to Natalie . Quiet , obedient Natalie , who had always brought back gifts after competitions , never forgetting her parents . Sharon had never once done the same . Sharon only demanded , never gave . Mrs. Summers had once comforted herself with the thought : at least Sharon is mine by blood . But as she stared at Sharon's twisted face , she ached for the girl they had cast out .
1/2 14:25 Thu , Sep 25 Chapter 144 The Name That Wouldn't Die 69 +10 Free Coins Natalie was gone , or so she thought . The regret gnawed at her daily . Yet now - news she might still be alive stirred a fragile hope . If Natalie still breathed , she and her husband would not face old age alone . After all , they had raised her for eighteen years . Mrs. Summers resolved to investigate in secret , when Sharon wasn't watching . Sharon hurled her back onto the bed . " Don't you dare look for her ! Even if she crawled out of that fire , I'll finish her myself .
If she shows her face , I'll make sure she suffers ! " The words dripped with venom . Mrs. Summers swallowed hers , hiding her fear behind a mask of gentleness . " Sharon , don't talk nonsense . The fire was too big . Natalie couldn't have survived . That account must have been hacked . " " You're right ," Sharon said quickly , eager to convince herself . " You're right . " She smoothed her dress , already heading for the door . " I'm going to tell Jensen about this ." Mrs. Summers didn't stop her this time .
She'd seen the way Jensen looked at Sharon now- cold , distant , bound to her only by obligation . And she had seen the way his voice softened whenever Natalie's name came up . As soon as Sharon left , Mrs. Summers turned to the butler . Her voice was quiet but firm . " Go . Find out where that Sunny account was accessed from . " The butler bowed and slipped away . But before long , the news reached Sharon's ears as well . 14:25 Thu , Sep 25
