CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Natalie waited with Shane outside the emergency room.

Shane paced up and down, often glancing impatiently at the red light above the entrance to the emergency room. He'd pressed his lips together so tightly that they were barely a thin line.

“Don't worry, Ms. Graham will be fine,” Natalie consoled Shane. Sensing his inner turmoil, Natalie pressed her hand against his and forced a smile onto her face.

Shane turned towards her, an unfathomable look in his dark eyes. He remained silent.

Natalie's smile faltered slightly.

What's Shane thinking? Doesn't he believe me? Or is he blaming me for causing Jacqueline's mishap?

Natalie bit her lip and released Shane's hand. She walked off to the side, keeping a distance from him. Then she said dispassionately, “Mr. Shane, our relationship caused such a tremendous shock to Ms. Graham that she fainted. Perhaps it would be better for us to break it off.”

“What are you saying?” Shane asked wildly. He whirled around, looking menacingly at her.
