Natalie nodded and said, "Alright. I'll go with you for the investigation."

Natalie was taken into the police car, leaving Luna angry. She said, "Damn Jennifer, always plotting against Jennifer. Then, she drove off to find Chris. As Easton finished his meeting and stepped out, Xavier nervously said, "Mr. Garcia, something terrible has happened.

"Someone reported that Mrs. Garcia was involved in an incident last night, accusing her of killing Maris. You should check the news right away." Easton's eyes were cold and serious as he looked at the tablet Xavier handed over, a sharp glint in his gaze as he read the

He said, "It's Jennifer. She's trying to clear her name. Natalie was with me and Murray last night. How could she have committed a murder?"

Xavier was shocked. He asked, "Mr. Garcia, how were the three of you together?" He added inside, 'Are you guys having that much fun?' He swallowed hard. His thoughts had wandered.

Easton didn't notice Xavier's expression. He went into the office and called Jennifer.

"Hello! Easton," Jennifer greeted. Her voice was soft and gentle.

Easton's voice was cold and harsh as he said, "Jennifer, haven't I warned you not to mess with Natalie?"

Hearing Easton's chilling tone, Jennifer was startled. Her anger flared after she realized that Easton was calling her because of Natalie.

She replied, "Easton, it wasn't me, I swear. How could I possibly frame Natalie? Nora stood up for me on her own. I truly did nothing."

Easton sat on the sofa, his tall and imposing figure radiating a cool, aloof presence that kept others at a distance.

"You know deep down if it was you," Easton said, "I've warned you not to play with fire. Natalie's my wife, and tarnishing her name is the same as mine. Jennifer, I've completely run out of patience with you." Easton hung up the phone and asked Xavier to come in.

"Mr. Garcia," Xavier greeted him.
