CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 656

“I'll look for Wilhelm.” Shane understood what she needed to do and spared her the trouble by cutting across her.

Wilhelm was the elder brother of the princess and the original owner of the diamond mine that Shane had bought.

Natalie knew that he had just given her leave to speak to Joyce privately by picking that moment to have a conversation with Wilhelm. Her heart burst with gratitude for Shane. “Thank you darling. I'll make it up to you tonight.”

A sliver of excitement flashed across Shane's eyes at Natalie's promise as he nodded eagerly.

Lina waved her hand as if to say that it was no trouble. “Don't worry about it. She's too hung up on Stanley, that's all. I couldn't understand why she would let one man cause her so much pain and misery. It's a good thing you're here, Nat. I need a drink. You have a go at talking some sense into her.”
