CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Natalie arched an eyebrow, but still, she kept mum.

Her cell phone? I've already gotten my hands on it ages ago and contacted Shane. Why would I still hanker after it now? Furthermore, I've got something even better to contact him at present. What's more, I can do so anytime!

Seeing her silence, Jacqueline mistakenly assumed that she had hit the nail on the head. She covered her mouth and guffawed haughtily. “Alas, I'm not going to give you my cell phone, so you can never contact Shane. Just stay here for the rest of your life!”

“Stay here for the rest of my life?” Natalie burst out laughing as though she had heard something hilarious.

At that turn of events, Jacqueline's brows furrowed. “Why are you laughing?”

“No reason in particular. It's just that I find your remark about me staying here for the rest of my life rather funny. Are you so certain that I'll remain here for the rest of my life?” Natalie's smile faded, and she regarded Jacqueline frostily.

For some inexplicable reason, a sense of uneasiness crept into Jacqueline at the sight of the look in Natalie's eyes. She couldn't shake off the feeling that something was amiss, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

Left with no other choice, she could only harrumph and retort domineeringly, “Of course! Do you think you can still leave? Sean will never allow you to leave, much less me!”
