Chapter 498


    A smile fleeted across Shane’s face as he noticed that Natalie was making fun of her father.


    He did not know that she had a yful side to her.


    “Why?” Harrison frowned in response. The crinkles in the corners of his eyes sunk deeper into his face.


    Natalie’s lips curled into a derisive sneer. “Because I hate that Sullivan woman. If you’re willing to divorce


    her and chase her out the door like how you did us seven years ago, maybe I will consider reconciling


    with you. What do you think?”


    She cast a nce at Harrison, bidding for answer.


    Harrison clearly had not expected that response and was stumped. “Really?”


    “Yes!” Natalie nodded without hesitation.


    Harrison fell silent as his eyelids drooped. He was contemting his next move.


    Natalie did not feel triumphant at Harrison’s response. On the other hand, she was rather amused by the


    irony of it all.


    “Look at how heartless he is.” Natalie cocked her head to one side and whispered to Shane.


    Shane nodded.


    Harrison Smith is indeed a heartless man.


    Seven years ago, he abandoned his wife and two children because of Susan and Jasmine while seven


    yearster, he contemted abandoning Susan for his own interests. This man is really despicable.


    Shane’s phone rang right then.


    He took out his phone to peer at the caller ID, and his face sank at the sight of it. Then, he put down his


    phone and looked at Natalie. “I’m going out to take this call.”


    “Sure.”


    Shane turned around and headed for the balcony.


    After he left, Harrison sighed as he rubbed against his walking cane. The man cast a nce in Natalie’s


    direction, and spoke as if he had ruminated over his words, “Will you reallye back if I divorce


    Susan?”


    Natalie was about to say something when a silhouette came dashing in. The woman was holding back


    her tears with bloodshot eyes as she roared at Harrison, “Harrison Smith! You old prick! How dare you


    even think about divorcing me?”


    Even though she no longer harbored any feelings for that old thing, the woman had never once


    considered a divorce.


    The Smith Group has gone bankrupt, but the old thing is still holding on to quite an amount of assets, not


    to mention this vi! I have to get a hold of all these before getting a divorce!


    Harrison had not expected Susan to overhear the previous conversation, and the old man looked


    troubled.

    The old man could not bear with the crowd’s scrutinizing gaze.


    “Alright, will you stop with this nonsense! When have I said anything about divorcing you?” Harrison’s


    face sank as he reprimanded Susan.


    Before Susan could say anything, Natalie put on a disappointed look as she said, “Dad, so you have no


    ns on getting a divorce with Susan. Well, then are you lying about wanting me toe back to the


    Smith family?”


    “No, that’s not it…”


    “I’m not going to have any more of this!” Natalie interrupted the man before he coulde up with


    another excuse. “If you truly want me toe back to the Smith family, then you would have agreed to


    divorce this Sullivan woman right away! You’re just lying to me!”


    “I…” Harrison was fumbling for words as he cast a furious nce at Susan, ming her for her untimely


    appearance.


    The woman grimaced in response. “Harrison Smith, what is that look that you’re giving me? You best be


    dreaming if you want a divorce from me!”


    Unless you’re giving me all your assets. Otherwise, I am going to haunt you for the rest of your life and


    beyond!


    “Dad, Susan is not saying yes to the divorce either. Well, then forget it. I think it’s better for us to stay this


    way. Anyway, I’ve got to go.” Natalie gave her father a bitter smile and made her way over to Shane’s


    side in a dejected manner.


    Harrison wanted to call out to her but was stopped by Susan. In the end, the old man could only stand


    idly by as they left.


    What he did not know was, after turning around, Natalie’s face turned into a mocking sneer.


    She could even hear faint noises of Susan and Harrison arguing.


    She did it on purpose—the forlorn, dejected look. Natalie wanted Harrison to think that she did have the


    intention of going back to the Smith family; that she was still craving fatherly love, and Susan was the


    devil who stood in their way.
