CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Shane glared at Lucy. His words had got her to stumble backward, and her face turned pale.

Silas saw how she reacted, so he delivered the final blow by adding, “Now, Ms. Rivers, do you still think it was purely a good deed that you rescued Mr. Thompson?”

“I didn't know that rescuing you would result in so much trouble. I was trying to be nice. If it wasn't for me, you—”

“If it wasn't for you, I would've returned to my family ages ago. My men were already looking for me when you showed up, and I would've been fine even if you weren't there. They would've found me sooner, and my wife wouldn't be triggered after hearing how I was missing!” interrupted Shane cruelly and sternly.

Lucy's legs gave way, and she fell onto the floor, looking stunned.

How did things turn out this way? I rescued him out of the kindness of my heart, but he is blaming me for it. He's even claiming that my help was unnecessary!

Silas seemed to have seen through what Lucy was thinking. “Ms. Rivers, please don't blame us for being so straightforward. That is just the truth. Your so-called rescue ended up getting us in a lot of trouble, and we're already being nice in recognizing your effort. You understand that, right?”

Lucy's eyelashes fluttered.
