"Ashley, have you ever stopped to wonder why your granddad chose to end it all right after my accident?" Nathalie asked, her voice laced with a hint of accusation.

Ashley shook her head, confusion etched on her face.

"Think about it," Nathalie pressed on. "Nathan, my husband, always dealt with the Stewart family through fair business means. But after my accident, he went full throttle against them. Doesn't that make you wonder if my accident was a setup by your family?"

Ashley's face lost all color.

Her grandfather's words echoed in her mind: "If he cares about Nathalie, then she's his Achilles' heel. Start with her."

Seeing Ashley's reaction, Nathalie's suspicions were confirmed.

"You know I'm linked to the Stewart family, yet they want to wipe me out," Nathalie said, her voice trembling. "They must be scared of a scandal breaking out, so they want to cut all ties. And now you're asking me to save them? Do you think I'm some kind of saint?"

Ashley's face was ghostly pale. "Nathalie, isn't there a way to make peace with the Stewart family? If you let them off the hook, I'll talk to my granddad and get him to agree to bring you back home."

Nathalie chuckled dryly, "Ashley, maybe I once longed for a father's love, but I've let that go. The Stewart family just isn't worth the heartache."
