Chapter 763

“Mommy.” Natalie arrived at the kindergarten an hour later.

Her two kids were at the entrance, chatting with Joe.

Natalie honked to indicate that she had arrived.

At once, Connor’s eyes lit up when he heard the car honk. He quickly pulled Sharon up. “Mommy’s
here.”

“Mommy.” Sharon broke away from Connor and dashed toward Natalie with Connor and Joe in tow.

“Mrs. Smith.” Joe called out shyly.

Natalie smiled. “Joe.”

“Mrs. Smith, this is for you.” Joe took a box out from his school bag.

Natalie bent down and accepted the box with both hands. “What is this?” she asked gently.

“These are cookies baked by my mom.”

At that, Natalie widened her mouth in surprise. “Why are you giving me these cookies then?”

“My mom told me to. It’s to thank you for taking good care of my sister.” Joe beamed.

Natalie smiled in response. “Okay. Thank you, Joe. Tell your mother I said thank you as well.”

She had donated some police equipment after visiting Alice in prison some time ago. It was so that the
staff members there would take good care of her.

She wasn’t expecting much – just a simple helping hand whenever Alice was bullied so that she
wouldn’t get beaten up.



It was probably a token of appreciation from Lucinda for what Natalie had done for her daughter.

“Alright, get in.” Natalie held on to the box of cookies as she ushered the three children into the car.

By the time she sent Joe back, the sun had already set. Natalie arrived at the villa with her kids soon
after.

After having dinner prepared by Mrs. Wilson, the three of them washed up and went to bed.

That night, Natalie had a hard time falling asleep. Her mind was preoccupied with evidence that would
be provided at Thompson Group tomorrow, as well as everything the detective told her.

It wasn’t until the wee hours when she finally fell asleep with a heavy heart.

However, it was a fitful night’s sleep as she fell into a nightmare. She dreamt that she was seated in the
backseat of a car in a beautiful dress and playing with a cute teddy bear. Meanwhile, her mother was
seated in the front passenger’s seat and talking on the phone.

She didn’t know who was on the other end of the phone, nor what was being said. However, her
mother suddenly got into a heated argument. The next thing she knew, the color drained from her
mother’s face, and she stepped on the brakes.

Then she got off the car with her mother. She got the shock of her life when she turned around and saw
a man and a woman in a bloody mess behind the car.

“Aaahhhh!” Natalie screamed in fright and bolted upright. Her face was pale, and her whole body was
drenched in cold sweat.

She gasped for air in an attempt to calm herself down.



When she finally calmed down, Natalie reached for the glass of water she had placed beside her bed,
drank it, and rubbed her temples.

“Why did I have such a terrifying nightmare?” Natalie mumbled to herself in fear.

Her dream was so vivid that she thought it was real.

And just like that, Natalie sat on the bed till daybreak before she got out of bed to wash up.

Since it was the weekend today, her kids did not have to go to school.

After breakfast, Natalie left her two kids at home while she drove to Thompson Group.

She had agreed to meet up with Shane today to see the so-called evidence.

Hence, she had to go.

After Natalie parked the car, she entered the building and took Shane’s private elevator to the top floor.

Silas’ eyes lit up when he saw her on his way out of Shane’s office. He smiled and greeted, “Madam.”
