Chapter 780 Thomas Is Not Your Biological Father
Thomas said bashfully, “There’s no need to be so formal between the two of us. Only strangers negotiate the terms and conditions. Both of us will always be related. It’s your responsibility to take care of me. Now that you have Dream Corporation, Samuel, and so much money, it shouldn’t be too difficult for you to give me two hundred million for me to enjoy my retirement life. Right?”
A sarcastic smile appeared on Natalie’s face.
She had never seen anyone who was so shameless. He had never done anything for her in his entire life, and yet, he had the cheek to say something like that!
“No, it won’t be an issue,” Natalie blurted.
Thomas started grinning shamelessly. “I knew it…”
“It isn’t an issue, but I just don’t want to give it to you.” An icy glint flashed across Natalie’s eyes. “If you think you can use this kind of method to get money from me, think again.”
When Thomas heard that, his expression changed drastically. His earlier honorable look was long gone. “Natalie, you care a lot for your granddad and mother, don’t you? Two hundred million is all you need to find out about the truth. What? You claim you care a lot about them. Yet, you aren’t willing to fork out the money!”
Natalie had no wish to carry on with the conversation, so she turned and prepared to leave.
Before she came to meet him, she had thought that Thomas might feel a little remorseful after what had happened.
Little did she realize that it was only her wishful thinking!
Even if she did pay Thomas the two hundred million that he demanded, the story from him might not be entirely accurate. If that was the case, there was no need for her to pay Thomas at all.
Seeing that Natalie was about to leave, Thomas panicked and chased after her. “If you think two hundred million is too much, we can talk about it! How about one hundred and eighty million? A hundred and fifty? All right! One hundred million! That’s the lowest I can go!”
The bargaining from Thomas did not stop Natalie from walking away.
It was so close for Thomas to get what he wanted. He could not just let her leave.
“Natalie, do you really not care about me? I’m your father after all. D-Do you really want to see me dead? No matter what, we are father and daughter!”
Natalie sneered coldly in her heart when she heard that.
Pfft! Pfft! Just then, she could hear the sound of a knife plunging into flesh followed by a groan from Thomas.
Sensing that something was amiss, Natalie turned around immediately and saw that Thomas had been stabbed twice close to his heart.
They were deep stab wounds, and blood was gushing out furiously.
Thomas looked down at his wounds in disbelief before slumping to the ground.
The moment he collapsed, the identity of the murderer was revealed.
It was none other than Thomas’ wife, Yvonne. Her hands were dripping with blood. Not only that, even her eyes had been splattered with Thomas’ blood.
Yvonne shouted emotionally, “Thomas, you deserve to die! You are a beast. You’re not fit to be Melissa’s father. I will kill you for Melissa! Kill you!”
Both Thomas and Natalie did not expect Yvonne to escape from the psychiatric hospital.
Thomas was well aware of Natalie’s medical expertise. Trying to crawl to her, he called out in pain, “Natalie, save me. I’m your dad. If I die, you won’t have a father anymore!”
He loved money and fortune, but he was also scared of dying.
He knew he had been stabbed in the chest, but he had no wish of dying so soon.
When Natalie saw Thomas squirming like a bug on the ground, she felt helpless all of a sudden.
He was wicked beyond redemption, but he was still her biological father after all. No matter how much she hated him to the core, she could not help but feel worried when she saw him in such a weakly state.
Just as Natalie took a step forward to try to save Thomas, Yvonne laughed out loud. “Father? He’s not fit to be your father. What a joke! He’s not even your biological father!”
