Shane nodded in affirmation. “Jacqueline said herself that the person she's thinking of only has about two or three months to live.”

“It's fine. I'll confess that even I found Jacqueline's reaction just now to be rather dubious,” Shane replied kindly, dismissing Natalie's apology.

Natalie looked at him. “Since it was a pure misunderstanding, let's not discuss this matter anymore. We'll be off now.”
