Natalie knew Baron hadn’t done such a thing, but she worried someone was trying to frame him.

Baron gently patted the back of her hand and said softly, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Go home and wait for me.”

“Then be careful. Call me if anything happens.”

Natalie shoved her phone into Baron’s hand.

Since his phone had gotten wet and wouldn’t turn on, she had to give him something so he could stay in contact with the outside world.

Seeing Natalie so worried about him, Baron felt a warmth spread in his chest.

“Trust me, it’s really nothing. I’m just going to cooperate with the investigation. All you need to do is go home and wait for me.”

From her eyes, he saw worry mixed with a trace of affection.

Was his Natalie finally starting to care about him?

After speaking, he looked at Sean.

“Sean, go home and get some sleep. Daddy and Mommy are here, you’re safe now. Even if we can’t handle it, you still have your grandparents and uncle. So don’t overthink it.”

Sean nodded and stayed close to Natalie.

Baron followed the police away.

Sean whispered, “Mommy, Daddy will be back soon, right?”

“Yes, he’ll be back,” Natalie assured, gently touching her son’s head before asking Chris to take the children home.

After Chris brought them back, Waylon had already received the news.

“Natalie, how’s Susie?”

Waylon and Ruby’s faces turned pale.

“Who could be so cruel, to treat a four–year–old child like this?”

Ever since Ruby found Natalic and learned she had two children, she poured all the love she hadn’t given Natalic in childhood onto them. Now, hearing this, she was furious.

Natalic felt a comforting warmth at her parents‘ reaction.

“Dad, Mom, Baron will get to the bottom of this.”

“It can’t just be Baron. I’ve already asked your brother to look into that girl named Anna. Tell me, how could a child be so vicious?” Ruby said angrily.

Natalie lowered her voice, “Mom, what if Anna isn’t a child at all?”

“What do you mean?” Ruby was stunned, and even Waylon turned to look at her.

Natalie sighed. “I suspect Anna is a dwarf, an adult.”

“What?” Waylon’s face darkened further.

“I’ll call Flynn and have him focus the investigation in that direction.”

He picked up his phone and stepped aside.

Ruby carried Susie into the bedroom herself.

Natalie noticed Sean wasn’t noisy or troublesome, but clearly exhausted. She stroked his head and said, “Son, how about Mommy helps you bathe and then you can sleep for a while? Don’t

When you worry.

wake up, Daddy and Mommy will both be here.”

Sean, always thoughtful, replied, “Mommy, I’m fine. I can wash up and rest by myself. What happened to my sister is more important. You and Daddy should handle that first. Don’t worry about me, I can take care of myself.”

Natalie’s heart ached at his words.

“Good boy. But remember, if anything happens, tell Mommy right away, understand?”

“I understand,” Sean nodded.

Chris personally took him to the bedroom.

Natalie sat down in the living room, her thoughts scattered.

It had all happened so suddenly that she couldn’t find a clear starting point or lead.

Just then, Juliana walked in carrying groceries. She paused slightly when she saw Natalie.

“Madam is home?”

Natalic frowned.

Why did that sound so wrong?

Before she could say anything, Waylon finished his call and turned, his face displeased.

“Juliana, if you can’t speak properly, go learn how. What do you mean ‘Madam is home? This is her home. You’re just the housekeeper. Does she need to report to you when she comes back?”

Natalie swallowed the words she had been about to say.

She could feel clearly how much Waylon and Ruby valued and cared for her.

Back at the Summers family, her parents had never cared how the servants treated her.

Of course, before Sharon returned to the Summers family, the servants hadn’t dared cross the line with her. But after Sharon came back, even a gardener watering the flowers felt free to mock her, while her parents turned a blind eye.

People’s hearts didn’t grow cold in a single day.

If the Summers family parents had shown her even the slightest bit of care or affection, Natalie would never have cut ties with them completely.
