“Natalie, forgive me just this once. I promise to cut all ties with her. Let’s start over again, okay?”

Ignoring the woman, John shifted his gaze back to Natalie, peering into her eyes anxiously.

 

Faced with his pleading gaze, Natalie regarded him with contempt.

“You’re pathetic, you know that? Pushing all the blame onto your woman like that.”

Anyone with eyes could see that John was a pathetic and cowardly man. Since Natalie had lost hope in him, I was very certain she wouldn’t give him another chance.

 

“Nat…” Sensing Natalie’s animosity, John called out anxiously.

He wanted to say more, but Natalie cut him off before he could.

Suppressing the rage in her heart, Natalie spat, “Get lost! You’re the most disgusting man I’ve ever met in my life! This is payback for the two slaps you gave me.”

 

Then, she walked to my side without sparing another glance at John.

Seeing the impatient frown on Michael’s face, the chief immediately ordered the police officers, “Hurry and take them away!”

John and his woman were soon taken away, and the interrogation room was peaceful once more.

“Chief Lewis, if we’re done here, I’ll be taking these two women away now. Don’t forget about your promise to handle this impartially,” Michael pinned the chief with a stern gaze and said indifferently.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Shaw. I’ll make sure there’s no preferential treatment,” Chief Lewis reassured respectfully.
