CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

She did not know how the children were doing at home, and if Jacqueline had given them a hard time.

“That's good,” Natalie said eagerly. “We would arrive tomorrow morning.”

“Wait for me in the hotel afterwards,” Shane instructed as he set his cup down on the table. “I want to go over to the diamond mine for an inspection.”

Natalie stretched lazily. “It'll be boring for me to be alone here. Lina wanted to check out the jewelry exhibition, and Joyce wanted to go shopping for souvenirs for our colleagues. They would be too busy to keep me company. Why don't I come along with you? I've never seen a diamond mine before.”

“It's to be awfully boring.” Shane gazed at her uncertainly.

Natalie smiled. “It wouldn't be boring if I was with you.”

Shane cheered up a great deal from her words. “Let's go then,” he said.

“Let's go!” Natalie jumped up and held his arm. Together, they departed the hotel.
