“Screw off,” Natalie huffed, feeling both amused and slightly annoyed by Joyce's comment. “You're the one who can't do it.”

“Do what? I'm not a guy, so it doesn't matter. It's different for Mr. Shane. Come on, answer me. How was it?” Joyce nudged Natalie's shoulder with a devilish glint in her eyes.

Natalie walked into her office. “Nothing happened.”

“Nothing at all?” Joyce said in shock. “But you're newlyweds! How could Mr. Shane bear it?”

Natalie sat down and started massaging her nose bridge as she replied, “He went to the hospital to visit Jacqueline last night.”

“What?” Joyce was clearly taken aback. “So he spent the night with Jacqueline?”

Natalie hummed in response.

“But why?” Joyce asked in confusion.

Natalie turned her computer on and started telling Joyce about everything that happened last night.

Joyce slammed her palm on the desk after hearing Natalie's story. “What the hell? How can she be so shameless? She probably got herself sick on purpose to get Mr. Shane's attention so she could separate the two of you!”

She knew Jacqueline's tricks well. When Stanley got hospitalized, Jacqueline found plenty of excuses to come and visit him, so Joyce naturally came to know Jacqueline. She was also well aware of the relationship between Jacqueline and Shane.
