CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

They continued chatting late into the night and only hung up when Natalie began yawning sleepily.

The next day, Natalie and Sally became quite the center of attention when they showed up at the clubhouse with the kids and a group of bodyguards.

Sally walked with her head held high and enjoyed the looks of shock and envy from the crowd.

Amused by her behavior, Natalie decided to not stop her and just let her be.

She then brought her kids into the lounge and told them, “Connor, Sharon, I want you two to stay here. Don't go anywhere else, okay? I'll come find you once the competition is over.”

“Okay!” Both of them nodded in unison.

“Very good!” Natalie gave them each a kiss on the forehead. She then turned toward Connor and said, “Connor, I want you to either give me a call or ask the bodyguards for help if anything happens. Do not try to handle it by yourself. You know how crazy things have been lately. Mommy will be really sad if anything bad were to happen to you two.”

Connor placed his hand on her cheek and said seriously, “I will, Mommy. Don't worry, I won't do anything rash. I know what I need to do.”

The previous incident with Sharon had taught him that his smarts would only get him so far when going against an adult as a child.

He knew that Jacqueline and Sean were secretly watching them, so he wasn't about to try anything crazy or go wandering around with Sharon.

“All right, I'll get going now,” Natalie said as she stood up.

“Bye, Mommy!” The kids waved at her.

Natalie nodded at them with a smile before turning around and walking out of the lounge.

She then closed the door behind her and instructed two of the bodyguards outside with a stern expression, “I'm leaving my kids under your care, so I'll hold you two responsible if anything happens to them.”
