Chapter 547
Before Natalie could respond, the little boy threw the handful of candies at her.
But since there were reporters around, all she could do was f0rce a smile.
One of the Larson Group staff member was worried that the child would do something outrageous
again. He awkwardly picked up the little boy and tried to shuffle him away.
“I’m so sorry, Mrs. Larson,” he apologized profusely.
“Let go of me! Where are you taking me?” The little boy cried and kicked his legs, tears streaming
down his face. He looked absolutely pitiful.
Natalie stepped in and stopped the staff member from taking the boy away. She took him in her arms,
placed him down on the ground, and took out a tissue from her bag to wipe away his tears. “You’re so
smart. I bet you’re the smartest one among your friends. Am I right? I can tell that all the other kids
follow you.”
The little boy said nothing.
The staff member angrily ordered him, “Be a good boy! Apologize to Mrs. Larson right now! Do you
hear me?”
The little boy snorted coldly. He didn’t apologize. Instead, he pointed at Natalie and turned to the other
children. “This woman drove away Charis. She’s a bad person!”
Natalie didn’t get angry, but she did feel helpless. She thought children couldn’t really tell the difference
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbetween right and wrong. They were just closed to whoever that was nice to them.
“I didn’t drive her away.” After that, Natalie stood straight up and touched the boy’s hair. She didn’t want
to make a fuss about it and continued to comfort the child, “Do you want more candies?”
“We don’t want your candies. Go away, you monster!” The little boy picked up the candy bag from the
ground, and threw it right at Natalie.
At the same time, the other children surrounding Natalie also joined in his lead. They all threw their
candies at Natalie, yelling at her to leave.
Seeing that the scene was about to descend into chaos, the staff member scooped up the little boy,
covered his mouth with his hand, and yelled at him, “Stop it at once! Shut up now!”
The little boy was stunned silent. Perhaps the staff member looked so fierce that it scared him. He was
clearly frightened. His face immediately lost its stubborn glare. He cried out, “You’re all monsters!”
The little boy began to wail, and suddenly all the children began to wail in unison in response. The
noise grew extremely loud and attention-grabbing. At first, there was only one reporter filming, but the
cry caught the attention of all the reporters around.
“Why are the children crying?”
“It looks like Natalie’s fault.”
Someone in the crowd accused Natalie of bullying the kids. Natalie suddenly got a bad feeling.
Sure enough, all the reporters surrounded her.
“Why haven’t you participated in any of the Larson Group charity events before now? After all, you’re
Brandon Larson’s wife!”
“Are you here today only for show?”
“Mrs. Larson, since you clearly hate children, will you continue to support the Larson Group’s charity
events?” “The kids seem so upset. Is it because the Larson Group have mistreated them?”
Natalie was irritated by the reporters’ groundless accusations. “No, I love children!”
“In that case, Mrs. Larson, can you tell us whether the kids in the welfare houses founded by the
Larson Group have been mistreated? We’d like to know.” The question was biting.
Staring at the cameras in front of her, Natalie tried to remain calm. “You can ask me questions later. If
you keep doing it here, you might scare the kids.”
It didn’t seem that the kids had ever been in such a confrontational situation before. They were so
frightened, they hid behind the staff members and Natalie. Some of the more nervous ones had started
to wail.
The crying seemed to be infectious. In an instant, half of the children on the playground began to cry.
Natalie raised her hands to block the cameras.
She dealt with the reporters’ anger and ordered, “Stop filming. You’re scaring the children!”
However, no matter what she did, the reporters kept asking her questions. Some of them even began
to make up stories in front of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie looked at the staff beside her. They winked at Natalie and indicated that she should leave with
the kids first.
The flashlights from the cameras were blindingly bright. The kids couldn’t even open their eyes and
kept wailing. Everything was in chaos.
Several staff members now began to take the children away.
The reporters immediately chased after them and bumped into Natalie, who nearly fell.
Just as she was about to land on the ground, a woman came up and grabbed her arm to stop her from
falling. “Be careful. Are you okay?”
After Natalie steadied herself, she turned around to thank the woman. “I’m fine, miss. Thank you.”
With bright eyes and a sweet smile, the woman said, “You’re welcome. It’s really nothing.”
She stood in front of Natalie and said, “Leave it to me.”
Natalie was stunned. This woman looked incredibly young, yet she carried herself like an elite.
The woman raised her chin and asked the reporters, “Which news agency are you working for? This is
a private charity event held by the Larson Group. Have you been invited? Be aware that the Larson
Group will sue anyone who snuck in here without an invitation.”
The woman managed to put the fear of God in all of them. They didn’t dare to take another step
forward, yet one still managed to squeak out, “Who are you? What does this have to do with you? Get
out of our way!”
