A wave of suspicion washed over him. Shane’s expression looked very nasty indeed—he was frowning so hard that a mosquito might be squashed to the death between the folds of his skin.

He had made Silas dig up all the information he could find on Natalie’s past, but Shane had a hunch that some of that information was inaccurate.

At that moment, Mr. Moore smiled and said, “Shane, I think the girl has finished choosing her teacup. She’s going after that Timeless Osmanthus Fragrance teacup you wanted to gift to Mr. Moore.”

This distracted Shane from his troubling train of thoughts. He shot another look at Natalie in the security footage.

She was standing at the display cabinet in front of the cashier counter, pointing at a teacup behind the glass. Exquisite lines of Osmanthus designs streaked across the sides of the teacup. “Is this the Timeless Osmanthus Fragrance teacup?”

The employee looked at the teacup she was pointing towards and smiled. “Yes, it is! This has been Mr. Blackwood’s favorite work recently.”

“It’s beautiful! I’ve heard of this teacup before, but it’s the first time I’m seeing it for myself. Mr. Moore will love it. How much does it cost?” Natalie looked up at the employee.

However, the employee looked rather sheepish. “I’m very sorry, Miss, but someone has already reserved this teacup for purchase.”

“Are you serious?” Natalie’s smile froze on her face. “They’ve reserved this?”
