CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

“Looks like he has brainwashed you really well,” Shane said icily, his eyes narrowing into a thin line.

Natalie frowned at him. “Brainwashed? Mr. Shane, what do you mean by that?”

Shane stepped closer to her. “What I mean is that Stanley isn’t as innocent and kind as you think he is. I’ve tried telling you this before. The last time, he tried to drug you and get you into bed with him. This time, he pretended to be drunk, so he could force a kiss on you and emerge completely blameless. And you think both of these incidents are accidents on his part?”

Natalie laughed. “Mr. Shane, don’t you think you’re too prejudiced against Stanley?”

Shane clenched his fists. Looking very displeased, he demanded, “Do you think I’m saying this because I’m prejudiced against him?”

Natalie pursed her red lips. “You’ve always been hostile towards Stanley. If this isn’t prejudice, then I don’t know what is!”

Shane fell silent. After a while, the expression on his face grew icy-cold. With a mocking smile on his face, he said, “I see. This is what you really think of me, right?”

Shane looked down and tried to hide the anger that was swirling in his eyes. Failing to do so, he turned around and left.
