There was some paper and a pen in the room.Natalie took the letter and sat beside the table.Although she was only supposed to do something as simple as copying a note, she felt exhausted. She felt like there was no more energy left inside of her.But when she thought about it, she knew Amy would only suffer if she did not obey. So, Natalie could only force herself to pick up the pen.Tears were streaming down Natalie's face by the time she finished copying the letter.Jasper had also returned. He paused when he noticed that she was crying.Was leaving Henry that painful for her?He could not understand what was so good about Henry. Livia used to be so in love with Henry. Natalie was, too.When Natalie turned her head and looked at him with pure hatred in her eyes, he felt his heart drop.The familiar feeling of pain overwhelmed him.Pain? How could his heart feel pain?It had been so long since he felt such an emotion. He had even thought that nothing would be able to caus
About an hour later, Jackson was brought to the Chase residence.Jackson seemed to be displeased as he cursed loudly. Perhaps it was due to the bodyguard's slightly rough behavior.However, he quickly shut his mouth when he saw Henry coming out of the elevator. He immediately smiled and said, "Henry, why did you want to meet me?""Do you know where Natalie is?" Henry did not beat around the bush and asked him directly.His eyes were fixed on Jackson, afraid of missing a clue."I…" Jackson did not expect Henry to be so direct. He was momentarily speechless."Jackson, you will definitely regret it if I find out you lied to me about this." Henry's voice was soft, but there was an underlying threat beneath his tone.Jackson felt slightly guilty and looked at Henry with some hesitance.He began to speak with a slight stammer. "If I can g-give you some useful information, will y-you compensate me accordingly?"Henry's expression darkened. So that bastard knew where Natalie was, yet
Jasper had actually escaped prison?Henry had not heard anything about that. He hadn't paid much attention to him, to be exact.He thought life would be peaceful during the few years that Jasper would spend in prison.It never occurred to him that Jasper would be released. He also never expected Jasper to have his revenge on them so quickly."I got it." It took a lot of effort for Henry to say those few words before ending the call."We're almost at the villa! We'll be there once you drive past that turning!" Jackson quickly gave out some directions.Henry took out his phone and called the head of his security, Mark. "Find someplace nearby to stop the car. Try and scout the situation inside the villa.""Alright, Mr. Chase."No matter what, they had to gauge the situation.They could not just rush in to rescue Natalie. Doing such a thing might endanger Natalie's life even further.They still had to plan even though it was just a rescue.There was a crossroad up ahead. One roa
"Officer! Please wait a moment!" Henry exclaimed as the officer was about to lift Jasper into an ambulance.The police stopped and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?""Is he hurt?" Henry's gaze followed the stretcher. However, Jasper had already been carried onto the ambulance."One of my family members got into the same boat as him. I can't contact her now, so I'm currently worried!"Henry looked at the officer with a burning gaze, hoping to gain some information from them.The officer frowned and said, "He probably fell into the ocean from a ship. Someone on the coast saw him and quickly called us."The eye-witness also said that someone had fallen with him. However, we have only been able to find that man.""Was the other person who fell with him a woman?" Henry asked quickly, his gaze filled with worry.He was already there. He could feel that Natalie was somewhere nearby. He might be able to find her if he asked a few more questions."We're not sure about that," the officer said
Jasper tilted his chin arrogantly and taunted, "Why don't you come over here and take a swing at me? Maybe then I'll spill everything."But I doubt you could even stand up right now. Those legs of yours are nothing but decorations now, right?"Henry's gaze turned cold, but he didn't lose his cool. He calmly took several sheets of paper from behind him and tossed them onto Jasper's bed.Jasper narrowed his eyes warily. "What's this?""Have a look at it yourself." Henry shrugged.Jasper glanced at Henry before he took the papers. His expression turned unpleasant as soon as he read the first page.These were Thomas' company financial reports. It was sensitive information. How did Henry get his hands on it?"From these reports, it seems your father's been dodging taxes for years… He would have to be jailed for a few years with that huge amount of unpaid taxes."Oh! But if we factor in the illegal financial activities, he might even end up with a life sentence."At his age, prison
"Did you lose your heart at sea along with Natalie?" Jasper chuckled coldly at Henry's silence.Although Jasper knew by then that the person who saved him back then wasn't Livia, he had been in love with her for many years. He couldn't just come to terms with her death because he knew the truth.So, his resentment toward Henry still lingered. He still wanted to see Henry in pain, to see him crumble.Henry didn't respond and gazed deeply at Jasper."I mean, even if Natalie did die, it wouldn't matter to you anyway. You can always find another one…"I've had my way with her while she was with me. Don't you find that repulsive? Don't you think she's filthy?" taunted Jasper.Though Henry remained silent, his hands clenched at his sides.Jasper was an animal! Everything he had done made Henry hate him to the core. Henry vowed to get his revenge on Jasper.But for now, he had to keep his composure."However, Natalie… she's truly irresistible. Especially when she resists, and those g
Henry swiftly added, "You should take care of Mrs. Lancaster. She's on edge right now and needs someone to watch over her."Sheldon thought it over and agreed with Henry.He nodded. "Tell me if there's any news of Natalie.""I will." Henry hummed absentmindedly before wheeling himself toward the elevator.About ten minutes later, Henry returned to the dock.Seeing his arrival, the head of the security team reported, "Mr. Chase, both the police and our team haven't located Mrs. Chase… According to the police…""What did they say?" Henry interrupted, noting the man's hesitation."If Mrs. Chase isn't found within the next two to three hours, the police will call off the search…"The sea is getting rough. If Mrs. Chase is still lost, she may have been swept away," the team leader cautiously continued.Henry's heart tightened.They were giving up the search. Was this their way of hinting that Natalie might not survive? Could they find her within the next two to three hours?"Let'
Shirley nodded in agreement. "I've already arranged for someone to bring William here. He definitely has something to do with this."After all, he's the one who filmed that video and the only one who has it."As soon as she finished, they heard a car stopping outside.Shirley knew who it was immediately. "It must be William."Henry turned toward the door and soon spotted a middle-aged man being escorted in.William was mad about being manhandled and struggled against the men. "Let go of me! How dare you treat me like this? I'm Harry's father! You know, the guy who pays you?""So you do know you're Harry's father. I'm curious, why would a father betray his son?" Shirley hissed darkly at William. Someone like William didn't deserve her respect."What betrayal?" William frowned, puzzled."Didn't you leak that video? Who else would do so?" Shirley questioned coldly.William still looked confused. He was about to say something when a voice came from the staircase."That meanie! He
