Chapter 1363


    She stopped smiling and reverted to her aloof demeanor.


    "I see.So you do know what a crime is.I thought you were ignorant about it."


    "Excuse me?"


    Lucy bit down on her lip.She was getting more and more anxious.


    Natalie snorted icily, "Good game, well yed, Lucy.You distracted everyone from the crime you


    committed, yet at the same time, you kept harping on the crime others hadmitted.Have you no


    shame?"


    "You-" Lucy nched at her words while clenching her fists.


    It took her a while to loosen her fists.


    Once she pulled herself together, she shot daggers at Natalie and asked, "Since you used me of


    being involved in a crime, why don''t you tell me what crime I''vemitted?"


    "You want to know? Sure.I''ll enlighten you."


    Natalie leaned against the couch and raised her index finger.


    "First of all, you kept harassing my husband.This action of yours had ounted for stalking and


    criminal harassment.Secondly, you drove a wedge between my husband and me, trying to get him to


    divorce me so that you could rece me.It''s not illegal, but it''s against morals and good customs!"


    Natalie lifted her third finger and stared at Lucy''s pallid face.


    "Last but not least, you spread rumors about me during the flight just now.Not only did your action


    tarnish my reputation, but it also caused me to experience a great deal of emotional distress.And that,


    Ms.Rivers, is a form of defamation.So what do you think? Do you still dare im that you''ve not


    committed any crime?"


    Lucy opened her mouth and wanted to retaliate, yet the words somehow stuck in her throat.


    Deep in her heart, she knew these actions were criminal, but she refused to admit them.


    The remarks Natalie made had rendered Lucy speechless.She could not help but grimace as she tried


    to conceal her guilt.


    "Don''t you have anything to say, Ms.Rivers? I guess I can take your silence as acquiescence, can''t I?


    So it''s not wrong for me to say you''ve double standards, right?" Natalie said.


    "You want to report me to the cops and tell them I imprisoned you? Go ahead.I''ll not stop you.But


    before that, let''s talk about the rumors you spread about me on the ne.How would you like to


    compensate me, Ms.Rivers?"


    "Why must Ipensate you?"


    Lucy widened her eyes.


    "Fine! I admit I made those remarks earlier, but you didn''t suffer any losses either, so why should I


    compensate you? I don''t mind apologizing to you, butpensation? Over my dead body!"


    She defended herself and looked up at Natalie with a scowl, as she believed Natalie was outright


    extorting her.She also felt making a few false statements about Natalie was not a big deal.


    Who is she to demandpensation from me? I''ve never met someone who could shamelessly


    demandpensation in such a manner! Upon noticing how furious Lucy was, Natalie let out a


    mirthlessugh.


    Did she really think I made that up to extort her?


    "Do you think you don''t have topensate me for tarnishing my reputation? Do you think I made this


    up so I can extort you?"


    A corner of Natalie''s lips quirked up.


    Lucy gradually looked up and gave her a sidelong stare.

    "Isn''t that extortion? I''ve only made a few remarks about you.I didn''t even injure you, yet you demand


    compensation from me? Don''t you think that''s a little ridiculous?"


    Upon hearing that, Natalieughed even louder.


    "Ridiculous? Do you think what I did is ridiculous? Apparently, you still don''t quite understand what a


    crime is.I guess I''ve overestimated your intelligence, Ms.Rivers.Not only did you not have morals and


    principles, but you also don''t seem to have a brain"


    "How dare you!"


    Lucy stood up, and her eyes glowed with a towering rage.


    Natalie secretly rolled her eyes and gestured for her bodyguard, Sigmund, to go over.
