CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake Chapter 941

Chapter 941“I don't think the doctor was speaking nonsense. We can easily detect the potential temperament of a
baby during pregnancy with the latest technology,” Natalie uttered solemnly.
It was considered a usual checkup during pregnancy in certain countries. Even so, it was usually
performed upon request domestically. The domestic hospitals did not implement it widely to eliminate
any unintentional abortion due to a potential error during checkups.
“You're right, but Mrs. Graham did not accept the doctor's advice. She refuted that it wouldn't be any
problem to nurture her child despite the disorder. However, things did not turn out as expected.
Jacqueline caused someone's death indirectly when she was only a child at that time.” Her secretive
tone resulted in an ominous atmosphere.
“Do you mean to say that Jacqueline killed someone when she was only a child?” Natalie gasped as
her heart skipped a beat.
Lucinda shook her head. “She did not kill anyone but caused someone's death indirectly. Anyway, I'm
not sure if all that is true.”
Natalie gulped and asked, “When did you hear about this?”
“Should be eighteen years ago,” Lucinda responded after pondering for quite a while.
In a split second, Natalie was on pins and needles. My goodness! Jacqueline was only a ten-year-old
child eighteen years ago, wasn't she? How was it possible for a child to be responsible for someone's
death? Just what kind of monster is she?
“Mrs. Brown, who was the victim?” Natalie asked again inquisitively.
Lucinda shook her head again. “I have no idea. The others seem to be clueless about it as well. The
wife of one of my husband's friends only mentioned that she overheard Mrs. Graham reprimanding herdaughter for repaying someone's kindness with her hideousness instead. Nevertheless, she did not
mention the victims' names.”
“I see. Mrs. Brown, I get it now. Thanks for sharing all these with me.” Natalie was thankful to Lucinda.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookLucinda waved at her with a smile. “Don't mention it. These are what I happened to overhear
previously. I'm not sure how true they are.”
“Regardless of how true they are, at least we know that Jacqueline is a horrendous person.” Deep
down, Natalie was a bundle of nerves. No matter what, Jacqueline must be arrested and charged for
her heinous crimes! We can't let her continue stirring up trouble and endangering others!
Natalie dragged herself back to the hospital, her mind churning with utter restlessness. She could
barely wait to bring her two kids overseas, keeping them far away from any danger. Lucinda's words
moments ago had scared her deeply, so she knew she must keep her guard up. Just the thought of it
caused her to be mentally exhausted.
In the afternoon, Joyce dropped by to visit the kids with fruits and toys. Astounded to see Natalie
apparently lost in her thoughts, she asked in great concern, “Nat, what's the matter with you?”
Natalie forced a smile. “Don't worry. I'm fine.”
“Are you sure? Try to look in the mirror. Your frown has deepened into a scowl. Are you all right? Or
perhaps the baby is causing you discomfort?” Joyce looked at her with a hint of anxiousness on her
face.
Natalie shook her head. “No. I'm fine.”
“Then why are you...” Apparently, Joyce did not believe her.Natalie stood up right away. “Joyce, that's enough. I'm fine. Can you help to keep Connor and Sharon
company here for a while? I need to settle the hospital discharge procedures for Sharon.”
Both the kids would be flying overseas with her the next day for treatment over there.
“Go ahead. I'm not going anywhere.” Joyce waved her away. Considering Natalie might be buttoning up
her lips due to certain reasons, she did not insist on questioning her.
Natalie stepped out of the ward to settle Sharon's discharge procedures. When she was about to return
to the ward, a familiar voice called out to her, “Nat!”
In an instant, Natalie straightened her back instinctively. When the tall figure in a white coat came into
view, Natalie felt a rush of indescribably complex emotions. “Oh, Stanley, it's you.”
Stanley knitted his brows at the sight of Natalie's nonchalance. Even so, he recomposed himself within
seconds and put on a warm smile. “What's wrong? You don't seem happy to see me.”
“Of course not.” Natalie lowered her eyes, avoiding eye contact with him.
Stanley twitched his lips and uttered gently, “Nat, don't ever try to bluff me. Don't you know that other
than a neurologist, I'm a psychologist too? No matter how well you're bottling up your displeasure, I can
sense that you're harboring a grudge against me. Did I do anything wrong?”
Natalie clenched her fists in silence. After quite a while, she looked up and stared intently into Stanley's
eyes coldly, as though she had made a decision. “Since you can sense that, let's talk things out.
Stanley, please be frank with me. Not long after I was back here, did Connor request your help to
perform a paternity test for him and Shane?”Both tha kids would ba flying ovarsaas with har tha naxt day for traatmant ovar thara.
“Go ahaad. I'm not going anywhara.” Joyca wavad har away. Considaring Natalia might ba buttoning up
