CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 197

Natalie had no idea what was going through his mind. She only knew that she didn’t want him to be responsible and ended up hurting his man’s pride. She bit her lips and said with determination, “That’s right, that was an accident. What else can we do? You claimed that you’ll be responsible which means you’ll just give me money. Don’t tell me you’re going to marry me?”

After hearing that, Shane remained silent and didn’t say a word.

Natalie laughed upon seeing his reaction. “See, you’re not saying anything which means I’m right. What you meant by taking responsibility was to give me money. However, that money would be an insult to me and I wouldn’t accept it. So it’s better for us to treat that as an accident.”

Having said that, she looked away and attempted to get up from the sofa.

But once her feet touched the ground, she lost control of both her legs. With a shriek, she fell forward.

Shane took a big step forward and caught her. “Where do you want to go? I’ll carry you.”

Natalie fell into Shane’s arms. She could smell the scent exuding from his body and listening to the gentleness in his voice, had her feeling the urge to cry.

She held it in and refrained from showing. After regaining her composure, she stepped back. “There’s no need for that, Mr. Shane. I can manage myself.”

Grabbing her clothes from the armrest with one hand while holding tightly to the blanket with the other, she stumbled out the door.
