Natalie looked down at her hands, then placed her bag on his desk.

Sensing some movement, Shane said dismissively, “You may go out now. I'll get Silas to send the information down later.”

The smile on Natalie's face widened, and she made no move to leave. Instead, she stood there and watched him quietly.

She wanted to see how long it would take for him to realize that she was in his office.

Although Shane did not look up, he was listening.

When he did not hear any footsteps walking away, he frowned.

He expected to see the unfamiliar face of one of his subordinates. However, he was greeted with Natalie's beautiful face beaming down at him. Momentarily stunned, he massaged his temples and smiled. “It's you. Why didn't you say anything?”

“That's because I wanted to see how long it'd take you to realize it was me,” Natalie replied with a grin.
