She believed that grudges between adults should be resolved between adults, and that their children should not get involved.

However, she also knew how mature Connor was for his age, so having him forget it and go back to being a happy five-year-old was highly unlikely.

In the end, Natalie decided she wouldn't talk Connor out of it as long as he didn't let his hatred go to his head.

“What happened? Why are Connor and Sharon's eyes all red? Have they been crying?” The door to the lounge was opened once again, and Sally saw the three of them hugging each other before she even entered the room.

Natalie let go of her kids and flashed her a smile as she stood up. “You're done with the photo shoot?”

“Yeah, I came by when I heard that you three were still here. What happened just now?” Sally asked while pointing at the kids.

Instead of answering her question, Natalie simply bit down on her lip and retrieved the box from her handbag.

Sally's eyelids twitched a little when she saw the box. “W-What is that?”

“The incident from yesterday has repeated itself,” Natalie replied.

Sally gasped. “That person sent it to you all the way here?”

Natalie narrowed her eyes. “Yeah, and I'm suspecting that I'll receive another one when I go for the competition tomorrow.”

“We can worry about that tomorrow. However... how do you plan on handling this one?” Sally asked while pointing at the box in her hand.

Natalie pursed her lips. “I'll just throw it away.”

“Aren't you going to see what's inside?” Sally asked.

Natalie's expression grew cold. “No, that won't be necessary. Given the contents of the package yesterday, it's obvious that this one won't be anything pleasant. Might as well spare ourselves the shock.”
