CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 82

Natalie had just shaken off Sean when she received the report.

Now that she thought of it, Sean was indeed a lunatic. Not only did he profess his love for her, but he was also acting too close for comfort. The man even went as far as to say he didn’t mind that Natalie had two kids—which she very much doubted.
