Feel the Way You Feel, My Love

Chapter 209

One of the police officers stepped forward. “Two hours ago, a member of the public informed the police that there was a car accident at Northbridge Road. A van did not manage to brake in time and collided with a truck. It flew away due to the impact, killing two of the people in it on the spot. Only your child, who was in the back seat, survived.”

If two out of three passengers died on the spot, it was obvious how serious the car accident was.

Natalie held onto her forehead, feeling like the world was spinning around her.

Shane grabbed her arm in time to stop her from collapsing. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“What about the other two?” asked Shane solemnly as he looked at the two police officers.

“They’re in the hospital’s morgue. These are the identification cards and phones we found on them. Their photos can be seen on the identification cards. You can see if you recognize them.” A police officer passed her a huge transparent bag.

Shane had just stretched out his hand when Natalie quickly snatched the bag over. She opened the sealed bag and took out the identification cards.

Left with no choice, Shane could only check his phone. When he read the few texts on the phone, he frowned. “This is a deliberate plan to kidnap Connor.”

“What?” When Natalie heard him, she ignored the identification cards and snatched the phone away from his hands. The text stated, We’ve already caught the hostage and will be sending him to the station. Her body trembled in fury as she read the message.

“How despicable!” Natalie gripped the phone tightly, her eyes becoming bloodshot due to hatred and anger.

Noticing her reaction, he was afraid that she would lose control of her emotions. Hence, he coaxed her gently, “Calm down first.”

“How can I calm down? They kidnapped my child and wanted to take him away! If you were in my shoes, can you calm down?” rebuked Natalie as she trembled.

Shane massaged his temples. “Of course not. But what’s the use of being so angry now? Connor’s not been taken away and the two of them have died. If you become so furious, you’ll lose your reasoning. It’s better if you calm down and investigate the truth behind Connor’s kidnapping.

When she heard that, she could not refute him. Hence, she took a deep breath, suppressed her agitation, and calmed down.

Seeing that she had been convinced, Shane felt slightly relieved. He pointed at the identification cards and asked, “Do you know them?”

Natalie shook her head. “No, I’ve never seen them before.”

Shane grunted an acknowledgment. He took the identification cards from her hands, placed them back into the bag, and passed it to the police officers. “Have you checked their identity and who they have been contacting?”

“Yes, but we don’t have a lot of information on who they are. These identification cards are newly registered, so the names might not be their real names. That’s why we asked you if you recognize them. As for who they’ve been contacting, I’m sorry…”

“Are you saying that you didn’t manage to find out who they are?” Natalie frowned.

On the other hand, Shane was not too surprised.

If they managed to find out, they would not have apologized.

They nodded. “Yeah, the number in their contacts was not saved. We tried to impersonate them to contact the person but did not get any response. Evidently, he has been monitoring the two men closely and escaped after learning that they got into an accident.”

“How can this be?” Natalie bit her lips, unwilling to accept this reality.

The police officers sighed apologetically. “Hence, the priority is for you to recall if you’ve offended anyone recently. Perhaps, if you manage to remember something, we can find out who the mastermind is.”

“If I’ve offended anyone…” Natalie lowered her head and mulled over it.

She had offended some people before. The first people to pop into her mind were Jasmine and Susan. Next, it was the person who had secretly tried to kill her. Although she had never offended that person, he or she still viewed her as a threat.

As all three of them were potential suspects for kidnapping Connor, she could not be certain who the culprit was. Furthermore, two of them were associated with Shane.
