CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

“Oh? Is that not it?” The grin on Natalie's face grew wider. “If that's the case, why did you hang up before saying goodbye?”

Seeing that she had hung up the phone in a hurry, Natalie knew she was hiding something.

Lina's eyes gleamed when she argued, “Who says that's a must? I-I just don't say goodbye before I end a phone call. It's nothing.”

Natalie picked up her glass of water, took a sip, and queried, “Is that so? Fine. I'll just accept the fact that you don't say goodbye before ending a phone call. However, may I know if you were talking to a guy?”

Lina nodded. “Yes.”

Natalie's eyes lit up. “It's true, then!”

“What is?” Lina gazed at her.

Natalie smiled and answered, “You've fallen head over heels for someone, and the guy is the person you were on the phone with just now.”

“No!” Lina denied it immediately. “Why would I fall for him? Nat, stop your nonsense, okay? He's not even my type. He's not handsome, his height is just average, and his figure isn't that nice. He's just gentle and considerate, and he knows how to cook. There's nothing else that's good about him. Why would I fall for someone like him?”

“Oh...” Natalie deliberately dragged her word. “He's gentle and considerate, and he knows how to cook. He sounds like a great man! No wonder you've fallen for him.”

“What are you on about, Nat? Didn't I say he's not my type? Why would I—”

“If you haven't fallen for him, how would you know all his good qualities? Besides, why would you mention his good qualities while trashing him?” Natalie was amused.

Lina's expression changed, and she froze. That's true. Why would I remember all his good qualities?

Seeing that Lina was keeping mum, Natalie swirled her glass of water and continued, “Just admit it, Lina. Just admit the fact that you've fallen for him. Why else would you remember his good qualities? Moreover, if you didn't like him, you wouldn't even want to talk to him, much less save his contact.”

Lina got even more perplexed upon hearing that. At the same time, she looked conflicted. Have I really fallen for him? Otherwise, why would I remember his good qualities and talk to him? If I don't like someone, I wouldn't want to talk to them, and I also wouldn't save their contact details. Not only did I save his contact details, but I've also been on the phone with him almost every day. So, does that mean I like him?

With those thoughts in mind, Lina blushed, and her heart raced.

Natalie looked at her and added again, “In hindsight, I should've seen this coming.”
