Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 999
ared stood beside her and said, “Once I hung up the call with you, the hospital staff took him to the morgue.”
Natalie murmured in response. She was not surprised to hear that.
Actually, she already guessed it would be so.
Patients who died in the hospital were not allowed to stay in the wards for too long. They had to be transferred to
the morgue.
Hence, when she saw the already cleaned-out room, she knew where Harrison had been moved there.
“Did he say anything before he passed?” Shane asked as he leaned against the wall and cocked his head toward
Jared.
Jared nodded. “Yeah. He said he hopes that we can bury him next to Mom.”
“What?” Natalie frowned. “Next to Mom? Is he out of his mind? He didn’t want her when he was alive. Why bother
trying to get her back now that he’s dead?”
Shane agreed that it was a very brazen request for Harrison to make.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Jared shook his head. “That’s not what he meant. He says he wants to pay for what he did to Mom. If we
bury him next to her, he will always be there to atone for his sins.”
“Pfft. He’s just using that as an excuse. He’s probably just afraid that we won’t do as he says, so he came up with a
reason like that.” Natalie snorted.
Jared looked toward her. “Then, should we do as he asked or not?”
At this point, Natalie went silent.
Shane placed his hands into his pockets. “Just do as he said.”
Natalie raised her head to look at him.
So did Jared.
Shane smiled. “He wants to make up for his mistakes, right? Let him do it then. I’ll bet Yulia really wants the
opportunity to teach him a lesson anyway.”
Hearing his answer, Natalie chuckled. “You’re right. Fine, we’ll do as he asked. We’ll let Mom bully him every day in
the afterlife.”
“Okay.” Jared smiled too.
Suddenly, Natalie asked, “Did he say anything else?”
Jared nodded. “He said his only regret is never having been able to hear us call him ‘Dad’, nor ‘Grandpa’ by Sharon
and Connor.”
At that, Natalie pursed her lips. “Is that all?”
“Yeah. He gave me this too.” Jared pulled out the thing he had been fidgeting with earlier. It was a watch.
“Why would he give you a watch?” Natalie asked puzzledly.
Shane looked down at the watch. “It’s a vintage automatic watch.”
“Mm-hmm.” Jared nodded. “Seven years ago, several months before we were chased out of the Smith Residence,
on my birthday, I asked him for a watch just like this one. Because it was too expensive, he did not agree to it. But
unexpectedly, he still managed to deliver in the end.”
The present that came seven years late was a big surprise to him, so he was not sure how he should feel.
What was most surprising was the fact that Harrison still remembered what he asked for seven years later.
Jared was confused by this action because he always thought that Harrison hated him and Natalie. If so, he had no
reason to buy a watch for Jared.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShane took the watch and observed it carefully. “It’s not new. He probably bought it quite some time ago. Harrison
isn’t at the age where he would wear a watch like this. I think he probably bought it for you, Jared.”
Jared took the watch back. “Yeah. He told me he saw the watch several months ago, and it reminded him of me, so
he bought it. He had been wanting to gift it to me but never found the right time to do so. Hence, he had kept it
until now. He even apologized to me.”
“What for? Why did he apologize?” Natalie asked.
“Seven years ago, when you went to ask for money from the Smith family for my surgery, he hadn’t wanted to
reject you. Apparently, he had no idea. Susan never told him. If he had known, he would have said yes for sure.
Even though he didn’t like us, he still saw us as his children. There was no way he was going to watch idly as I
breathed my last breath on the surgery table for not having enough money.”
Natalie was rendered speechless at that.
Harrison’s apology really touched her heart.
She always thought that he was so heartless to the point that he refused the surgical fees for Jared and that he was
willing to watch him die.
It turned out that he had no idea at all…
“Well, it’s all in the past now.” Natalie sighed. “Did he die a painful death?”
