Chapter 330

Seeing that Zoe hadn’t woken up yet, Natalie said, “I’m not tired. I have something to do and need to go out for about an hour. I’ll be back soon.”

Theresa nodded. “Alright. The snowstorm is intense–make it quick and don’t let yourself freeze out there. Don’t worry about Zoe; her aunt will be here soon. With someone else to help, I’ll feel more at ease. You should head home and get some rest.”

Just as Natalie was about to leave, Zoe’s aunt arrived. Natalie greeted her and took the opportunity to update Theresa about last night’s events.

Since Theresa was aware of everything about her daughter, Natalie explained, “I believe Jennifer already knows Zoe is here to give birth. I ran into Jasmine, who tried to kidnap Zoe’s child to extort her. She’s been sent to jail, and I’m heading over now to follow up. Please, don’t leave the baby’s side for even a moment.”

Jennifer was capable of anything–extreme caution was necessary.

Theresa sneered, “Wendy treated Jennifer like a treasure, and now they’re finally paying the price. Natalie, even though she’s your biological mother, I can’t help but feel pleased to see the Tompson family go bankrupt.”

Natalie smiled lightly, understanding her feelings, and said, “I feel the same.”

After a brief chat, Natalie left for the police station. She unexpectedly ran into Samuel. Both were slightly surprised to see each other.

Natalie greeted him with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Lester.”

“Are you here for something?” Samuel asked.

Frowning slightly, Natalie replied, “I saw the news. Is it true that the girl Jasmine bullied has died?”

Samuel nodded. “Yes, but this case isn’t under our jurisdiction. We received the report and handed it over to the Shagrity police. She’ll be taken in for questioning tonight. Her ex–boyfriend and the girl’s father are here too. The girl’s father just caused quite a scene inside. We only managed to calm him down moments ago.”

Taking a deep breath, Natalie said, “I never imagined she could be this vile. Mr. Lester, may I speak with her?”

Samuel chuckled. “This place isn’t that strict. Go ahead. You might even uncover something useful for me. Over the past two years, we’ve had four infant kidnapping cases, and no matter what methods we tried, we couldn’t find the truth. By some twist of fate, we’ve stumbled upon a lead this time. You’ll find them all inside. Solving cases takes many approaches, and since everyone involved is aware of the circumstances, I’m allowing this. This case has been bothering me for two years.”

Natalie nodded and smiled. “Thank you, Mr. Lester.”

Watching her with a deep, contemplative look, Samuel replied, “I should be thanking you. Go on in.” The source of that video still hadn’t been identified.

Inside, Natalie heard Jasmine shouting, “Jason! It was that bitch Natalie who set me up! Please, save me! Help me, please!”

“Jasmine,” Natalie said coldly, “how exactly did I set you up? Go ahead; explain yourself. Even here at the police station, you’re still trying to twist the truth. Truly, you’re just like the lapdog Jennifer trained you to be.”

Standing up, Natalie glanced at Jasmine’s contorted expression and said, “Jasmine, even you can’t forgive yourself for what you’ve done. What can I possibly do for you? The people you got killed, those like Zoe whom you hurt–did you ever feel the slightest bit of sympathy for them when they were in pain?”

With that, Natalie turned and walked away.

Jasmine collapsed onto the floor, sitting in stunned silence. At that moment, she finally realized she was truly done for.

Jason gestured for Austin to push his wheelchair after Natalie.

Jasmine screamed and cried when she saw Jason leaving. “Jason! I’m carrying your child! You can’t leave me! Come back! Save me! Please, come back! You spineless coward! Get back here! I don’t want to go to prison!”

Austin glanced back, his eyes flashing with murderous intent. If it weren’t for his young daughter, he would’ve killed Jasmine himself.

Outside the police station, Jason called out as he watched Natalie’s retreating figure, “Natalie, wait!”
