Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 742

Natalie understood their situation but was not sure how to react to that.

“Let’s not talk about it anymore.” The middle-aged woman put a smile back on her face. “Would you like to come in and have a drink? I want to thank you for taking care of Joe.”

Natalie, who initially wanted to leave, decided to take up the offer after seeing how eager Joe was for her to say yes. “All right.”

“Come on in!” The middle-aged woman gestured for Natalie to follow her.

Joe’s lips instantly curved into a smile.

Natalie opened the door and carried the twins out of the car.

The woman took a glance at Sharon before observing Connor’s facial features.

Her eyes widened like saucers. “Mr. Shane?”

Natalie was taken aback by her reaction. “Sorry? What did you just say?”

There were mixed emotions in the woman’s eyes. “This little boy looks like someone.”

“Shane Thompson from the Thompson Group?” Natalie gave her a puzzled look. The woman gasped. To confirm her doubt, she asked, “If I may ask, are you Mr. Shane’s wife?”

“Yes.” Natalie nodded and asked, “Do you know Shane?”

Locally speaking, it was impossible for an ordinary woman living in this neighborhood to know who Shane was.

But she seemed to know who he was and how he looked upon seeing Connor’s face.

Who is she?

The middle-aged woman lowered her eyes and hesitated. A few seconds later, she burst into tears. “Please save my daughter, Mrs. Thompson.”

Natalie knitted her brows. She could not understand a word she said.

We were just talking about Shane, and now she asks me to rescue her daughter?

Connor seemed to have recalled something and tugged at Natalie’s sleeve. “Mommy, I think Joe has the same family name as Alice Brown…”

The color drained out of Natalie’s face. “So you’re…”

“He’s right. Alice Brown is my daughter, and she’s Joe’s sister.” The middle-aged woman, whose name was Lucinda, held Joe’s hand.

Joe looked lost as he did not know what was going on.

Natalie’s expression turned grim. She grabbed her twins’ hands and said, “Let’s go!”

She did not expect them to be Alice’s family members.

I’m not interested in befriending the family of a woman who had attempted to kill me twice.

Just when they were about to leave, Lucinda fell from her wheelchair and collapsed on the ground.

She immediately reached out her hand to stop Natalie from leaving. “Please don’t go! My daughter didn’t try to kill you. She took the blame for someone!”

“What?” Natalie was struck dumb. She stopped walking and asked, “What did you say? She’s not the culprit?”

With her tearful eyes, Lucinda nodded. “Yes. Alice is innocent. She only admitted the crime to save the family.”

Natalie believed Lucinda was telling her the truth. She placed her hand over her forehead and did not know how to react to this revelation.

She needed some time to organize her thoughts.

A few months ago, Alice nearly drowned her in a restroom. Fortunately, two women found her and rescued her.

Then Alice tried to kill Natalie for the second time by damaging the elevator but failed. Alice went into hiding for some time, but the cops eventually caught her.

And now, Lucinda told Natalie that Alice was just a scapegoat.

So the culprit is still at large?

This thought instantly sent chills down Natalie’s spine.

“Tell me more about it.” Natalie held Lucinda back to her wheelchair.

It would not be nice for the children to listen to what Lucinda was about to say, so Natalie instructed the children, including Joe, to wait in the car.
