CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1017

She shut her eyes and yawned wearily.

Seeing that, Shane asked, “Feeling tired?”

“Yeah. I've been busy attending to Harrison's matters these few days and haven't been getting much rest.” Natalie's voice sounded worn out.

Shane patted her back. “Go ahead and get some sleep, then. I'll be right here, keeping you company.”

“Okay.” A smile graced her lips. She soon fell asleep, her arms still wrapped around his waist.

Seeing that she was fast asleep, Shane scooped her into his arms and tucked her into bed.

The next day was Susan's execution day, as well as the day of Harrison's funeral.

Clad in a long black dress with a white rose pinned to her chest, Natalie stood before the break room window with a glass of juice in her hand, watching the funeral guests with a calm gaze.
