    Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 986


    “Huh?” Natalie narrowed her eyes. “What does that mean?”


    “Ten years ago, the Grahams dered bankruptcy, and both Mr. and Mrs. Graham passed on soon after.


    This was not from the blow dealt by their insolvency, but of Jacqueline’s doing.” said the horrified


    Marjorie.


    Natalie’s eyes widened, and she felt her own skin crawl. “Do you mean to suggest that Jacqueline killed


    her own parents?”


    “I can’t say for sure that she did, but knowing what Jacqueline did to your parents, I suddenly felt the


    compulsion to have someone look into the death of the Grahams. Jacqueline’s presence seemed to be


    persistent every step of the way, so I’m guessing that she must definitely have something to do with the


    unusual circumstances surrounding her parents’ deaths. I can’t be as certain as for whether she was


    the one who did them in herself though,” Majorie said, shaking her head.


    Shane stood to his feet. “Regardless, the fact that this could be traced back to her means that she won’t


    be able to get away scot-free.”


    “I agree,” Natalie concurred.


    Shane then looked to Marjorie. “You said that you did not dare to share what you heard with anyone else


    before. Why?”


    Marjorie smiled bitterly. “It was because I was discovered. Jacqueline walked away smugly after Mrs.


    Graham gave up on getting her to turn herself in. I felt sorry for the woman who was sobbing away while


    bent over on the ground on her own. I could not help but sigh, and that’s when Mrs. Graham heard me.”


    “Did she threaten you?” Natalie asked.


    The woman nodded, then shook her head. “You could put it that way. The Grahams and us Larsons were


    business partners, but we were on a less solid footing than they were. Mrs. Graham made me promise


    not to say this to anyone at the threat of repercussions against our family, and that was why I’ve never


    mentioned this to anyone before.”

    “Looks like the charitable spirit Mr. Wangton spoke glowingly of had its limits,” sneered Natalie.


    If the Grahams were as kindly as they made themselves out to be, they probably wouldn’t have issued


    such threats against anyone’s loved ones. Perhaps they did do enough good in their time to justify the


    udits they received but apparently, they weren’t saints either.


    “Since you’ve agreed not to divulge this, why did you choose to share it with Mrs. Brown and the others


    afterward?” Shane’s eyes were riveted on Marjorie as he asked.


    “I was really close to them so my intentions were to warn them to steer clear of the Grahams, especially


    that monster Jacqueline. That was why I told them that she caused someone’s death without specifying


    whose.”


    With that, she straightened herself up and bowed toward Shane. “I’m so sorry, Mr. Shane. I really did not


    mean to withhold this. All I wanted to do was to protect my family. I’ve told you everything you wanted to


    know just like you asked, so I hope that you won’t hold it against us.”


    Shane silently regarded her before he turned to walk out, which led Marjorie to look toward Natalie in


    uncertainty.


    “Don’t worry, Mrs. Larson. My husband doesn’t me you since you were being threatened back then.


    But I do hope that you’d be willing toe forward and testify against Jacqueline should this case ever


    go to trial,” said Natalie with a smile.


    “As I should,” replied Marjorie in the affirmative.


    Natalie smiled once more. “Thank you, Mrs. Larson, and goodbye.”


    With that, she turned and took off after Shane who she found waiting by the car for her.


    When she approached, he pulled her into his arms by the hand and held onto her fast. “I had always


    thought that the second culprit would be one of my parents’ business rivals. Never have I expected that


    it’d turn out to be Jacqueline.”


    Under the impression before that the second perpetrator must have been a collective, it never urred


    to him that she could have been a single individual, much less a ten-year-old Jacqueline Graham.


    “Yes. Nobody could have seen thating. No one could have fathomed how scheming and vicious


    Jacqueline could be at her tender age,” said Natalie who went on tofort him as she spoke.


    She then felt his arms wound even tighter around her. “Now I really hate myself.”


    “Huh?” Natalie looked up at him. “Why?”


    “I’ve always had an exclusive education from young. If I wasn’t with Grandpa, I’d be overseas. Rarely


    was I ever around my own parents, and that was why my mother had taken on Jacqueline as her


    goddaughter. All because it was she who visited often and enabled my mother to experience the joy of


    parenting. Jacqueline also came by my house after my parent’s passing. That was also when she and I


    became close.”
