Before Natalie had noticed it, Sharon had already caught it. Pointing at Jacqueline, she declared, “Mommy, Ms. Graham is looking at you with hatred in her eyes!”

As soon as she said that, everyone stopped eating and swung their gazes at Jacqueline.

Meanwhile, Jacqueline had never expected the envy that she usually concealed so well to be discovered by a little girl, who even blurted it. Thus, she hadn’t the time to mask it before everyone turned their gazes on her.

Shane’s face darkened at once. “I need an explanation from you, Jacqueline.”

Natalie didn’t say anything since there was no need for her to do so when he had already spoken. She merely waited for Jacqueline’s explanation.

She abruptly went into a coughing fit, coughing so badly that her face turned bright red and tears swam in her eyes. On the whole, she appeared exceedingly pitiful.

Upon seeing that, Shane could no longer muster any anger toward her, his demeanor softening. Putting down his cutlery, he stood up and walked to her back. “Are you okay?” he inquired while patting her back lightly.

However, Jacqueline didn’t answer him as she continued coughing.

After coughing for a while, her eyes suddenly rolled back in her head. She then collapsed onto the table in a dead faint, startling Natalie and Shane.
