Chapter 44
Later, Haven started to piece things together, Looking back, she became more certain. “Miss, thank you for the reminder.
“I felt something was off from the start, and now I remember my aunt mentioning that Tyler Fraser’s cousin works at the neighborhood patrol. I suspect that the heavier–set woman was his relative.”
Natalie nodded, but she was curious about one thing. “Why didn’t you take the opportunity to send him to the police station? He might come back for revenge since you let him go today,”
In her view, one should eliminate the root of the problem. After all, Tyler had indeed acted inappropriately.
Haven wished she could sentence Tyler to ten or 30 years in prison, but she sighed. “His mother is my aunt’s superior in the same office, and his family has connections everywhere. If I send him to the police station today, his relatives will definitely make things difficult for my family.
“I’ll be fine in Art Corps, but I worry about my family getting dragged into it.”

During the short walk, Natalie and Haven introduced themselves to each other. However, since Jasper present, Natalie introduced herself as Talia.

Haven leaned closer and teased in a whisper, “Not now, but maybe in the future.”
Natalie replied firmly in the same low voice, “No way. Absolutely not.”
In the original storyline, he disliked her intensely, and his current special treatment was only because he didn’t know her true identity yet. Meanwhile, Jasper, walking ahead, had a keen hearing. Although Natalie’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s buzz, he caught her words-“No way. Absolutely not.”
Was she so sure?
A mocking smirk crept onto his cold lips. With a stern expression, he quickened his pace.
Before l
e long, he put some distance between himself and Natalie, reaching the parking area.
Haven was from the Air Force Art Corps, and Natalie planned to go with her to inquire about the recruitment. Realizing it was getting late and worried everyone might leave, she saw Jasper getting into the car and asked for help. “Mr. Locke, could you give us a ride to Art Corps?”
“It’s at a different location, with a cold expression, he pressed the accelerator.

The car sped away, disappearing down the street in no time.
Watching the car vanish, Natalie felt puzzled. What was up with him? Why was he so angry?
