Sean's eyes darkened when he noticed the unconcealed disgust in her gaze. Just as he was about to say something,
he heard footsteps approaching.
Marina brought out a set of breakfast from the kitchen and placed it in front of him. “Sir, please enjoy your meal.”
He harrumphed in response and added, “You may leave. Keep a close eye on Jacqueline.”
“Okay.” Marina nodded and went back to the kitchen.
At the mention of Jacqueline, Natalie lowered her gaze and asked, “Do you blame me for asking Marina to chase
Jacqueline to the kitchen?”
Sean took a sip of coffee and smiled. “Why would I? When you told me that you didn't want to eat with her, I agreed
to have her eat in the kitchen whenever you are around. My approval isn't a one-time event but for a lifetime. Do
you understand?”
Natalie's eyes flickered around, and she did not utter another word.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSean put down his cup of coffee and grabbed his fork. “By the way, Nat, do you know why I didn't come back
yesterday?”
“No, and I'm not interested too,” she replied after taking a sip of her glass of milk.
“Oh, I bet you will be interested.” Propping his head on the palm of his hand, he asked, “Haven't you been eager to
know about the organization behind me and the culprit that killed your friend's parents?”
At that, Natalie's expression changed, and she straightened her back.
Noticing her reaction, Sean smiled. “See. I said you would be interested. I went back to the organization yesterday,
and I've looked into the whole thing for you.”
“What?” She stared at him in bewilderment. “D-Did you figure it out? Who's the culprit?”
“Calm down,” he urged, signaling her to simmer down.
Natalie was stunned for a moment but soon recollected herself.
That's right. Why am I being so emotional? It's not like that will make him tell me everything. Even if he does, there
must be a catch. He must want something from me in return. I shouldn't have asked him in that way.
As though he knew what was on her mind, Sean sighed. “Nat, I'm heartbroken that you think of me like that. Are
you so mistrustful of me? When I said I would help you look into it last time, you rejected me because you thought I
wanted something from you. But still, I went to investigate it. This means that I sincerely want to do something for
you, and I don't need you to give me anything in return.”
She forced a smile and replied, “I'm sorry, but there's no free lunch in this world. Thus, I don't believe you will help
me without any condition.”
Furrowing his brows, he sighed and said, “Why is it so hard for you to trust me even once? Fine. Since you don't
trust me, let me prove myself. I will cut to the chase. The Dark Organization hired a bunch of talented people about
a decade ago. There were scientists, doctors, and so on. One of our faction leaders was in charge of the
recruitments.”
The Dark Organization?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie did not intend to find out who killed Stanley's parents. Yet, Sean started divulging everything to her, much to
her surprise.
Most importantly, he even revealed the name of his organization.
Shane and Connor had failed to find out the organization's name despite investigating for a long time, and
unexpectedly, Sean disclosed it himself.
Isn't he afraid that I will tell Shane to destroy his organization?
The shock on her face was too obvious that Sean knew what was on her mind right away. His eyes gleamed as he
said, “It doesn't matter. I've already instigated a group of people to leave the organization. You could say I'm no
longer associated with the organization, so whatever happens to it has nothing to do with me.”
Realization then dawned on Natalie.
I see. No wonder he doesn't mind revealing the name of his organization. It's because he has betrayed the
organization!
Seeing that she had regained her composure, Sean uttered again, “That faction leader's the one who killed your
friend's parents. You've been refusing to tell me who your friend is. I've found out now. It's Stanley Quinn, right?”
