CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Seeing the sadness in her eyes, Shane decided not to ask anymore.

“He's dead.” Jared nodded.

Natalie shut her eyes. Subconsciously, tears began to flow. “When did this happen?”

“Ten minutes ago, he made a call to the police station. Next thing I know, he was gone,” Jared replied between sobs.

Natalie hummed in acknowledgement. “I'll be right there.”

“Okay,” Jared answered.

She then put down her phone. Her head was lowered, and she seemed to be caving into her seat. Silently, tears continued to stream down her face.

When Shane saw that, he undid his seat belt buckle and hers as well. Then, he pulled her into his arms and comforted her. “Just cry it all out.”

“No, I won't. I hate him so much. Why should I cry over him?” Natalie said stubbornly as she wrapped her arms around Shane.

Hearing that, Shane chuckled softly. “All right, all right. Then, don't cry.”

Natalie kept silent, but her body was shaking terribly.
