Chapter 1717 She Was Being Watched

Natalie's face was filled with disbelief.

Stanley knew that she didn't quite believe his words, feeling that what he said was somewhat unbelievable.

Indeed, who would associate a kidnapping and a car accident with such a simple purpose of just getting her to leave?

“Everything I said is true. I didn't deceive you.” Stanley sighed and then looked at Natalie. “You should know that before, I thought I was in love with you. Or rather, before I understood my own feelings, I thought I loved you.”

Natalie bit her lip and let out a soft “Mmm.”

“At that time, it was shortly after you returned to the country.” Stanley lowered his gaze, caressing the edge of the teacup in his hand, his expression somewhat cold. “In fact, when you decided to return, I didn't quite agree with your decision. At that time, a voice in my heart told me that once you returned, you would never leave again. This voice made me feel very panicked and scared. I was afraid that you would stay in J City and never leave. In the end, it turned out that my intuition was right. You did stay.”

Natalie pursed her lips, not saying a word.


Stanley didn't mind, and continued, “Because, at that time, I felt like I loved you very much, so after you returned to the country, I had someone keep an eye on you. Therefore, during the time you were back, I knew about all your movements.”

“What?” Natalie widened her eyes in astonishment.

Stanley wasn't surprised by her reaction as everything was within his expectations.

“You actually had someone follow me?” Natalie bit her lip, finding it hard to accept.

Stanley neither confirmed nor denied. “Yes, I had someone follow you. I'm sorry I never told you.”

Natalie lowered her eyelids, slipping into silence as she pondered how to respond. The anger coursing through her veins intensified. After all, being followed was universally detested as it evoked a sense of being a criminal.

In short, it left her feeling indescribably repulsed at her core.

Natalie tightly pursed her red lips, her facial expression looking somewhat unpleasant.

Stanley also knew that Natalie was angry, and he understood why. After all, it was his own fault.

He took a sip of tea and continued, “Because I had someone constantly following you, I knew everything about what you went through and the people you encountered after returning to the country. Initially, I had no plans to go to J City, but I ended up following you there. Do you know why?”

Natalie remained silent for a moment, seemingly lost in thought. However, she quickly understood and looked up at him. “Because of Shane!”
