The president explained, "At the time, Ms. Sanders asked me not to disclose her information. She said she had someone very important to take care of and wouldn't be accepting any job offers for a while."
"I've always admired her talent, so I was happy to grant her small request. However, there was a slight discrepancy. Back then, Ms. Sanders was using a pen name, not her real one. Very few people knew about it—just her professor and me. When you contacted me two years ago, I never made the connection."
Sebastian frowned. He never made the connection?
What kind of an excuse was that?
The president laughed and continued, "Mr. Griffith, I only recently found out that Natalie was that brilliant student from back then."
"It was only when her work resurfaced that I learned the truth."
Sebastian's expression softened slightly.
"Thank you, sir."
After hanging up, Sebastian's thoughts were in turmoil. The very important person Natalie had to take care of back then...
It was him, after the car accident.
The fire hadn't killed him, but the horrific crash that followed nearly left him crippled.
Natalie had been there for him, day and night, for two whole years. And Joanna? She hadn't done a single thing for him, yet she was collecting a five-million-dollar monthly allowance.
How could he have been so blind as to ignore the genuine care Natalie had shown him around the clock for two years?
Instead, he had pinned the vague gratitude he felt for being saved from a fire onto Joanna.
And he had subjected Natalie to all sorts of torment and humiliation.
That fire was suspicious. Joanna had been nearby. Why had she and her father been so adamant that she was the one who saved him?
At that time, Natalie hadn't even returned to the Scott family.
