CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

After Natalie chatted with the children for a while, she asked them to hand the phone to Shane.

The children knew their parents had things to say to each other. Thus, they unwillingly handed the phone to Shane.

Shane took the phone, patted the children's heads, and aimed the camera at himself. “Was it tiring today?”

Natalie shook her head with a smile. “Not at all. We're the judges, not the participants, so we didn't need to concentrate that hard or stress about the competition. We just sat there and waited for the participants to hand in their work.”

“That's good. Don't tire yourself too much,” he replied gently.

“Mhm. Don't worry, Darling. I got this. What about you? I can see there's a bit of black under your eyes. Did you get so busy for the past two days that you didn't sleep well?”

“I wasn't busy. I only look haggard because you aren't by my side.” He stared at her intently.

Natalie didn't know how she should respond to that. “Do you miss me that badly?”

“Mhm.” Shane nodded. “If I could, I would keep you by my side all the time, but I know that's not right. You're someone who wants to develop your career and needs freedom. If I put a shackle on you, it'll destroy you. Besides, I like how confident you look when you work.”
