CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1680

Indeed, when Shane heard Lina's question, he pursed his lips even harder.

Seeing that, Lina was certain that her guess was spot-on and that the couple was indeed fighting because of the incident in the morning.

“Is it correct for me to say that you asked for it, Mr. Thompson?” Lina glanced at him sideways.

Shane's eyes narrowed dangerously, and his voice was frigid as he uttered, “What did you say?”

“Um...” Lina's lips twitched slightly before she hurriedly waved her hands and shook her head, smiling sheepishly as she went on, “N-Nothing. I simply misspoke. Haha!”

I'd better not diss him so boldly when he's still upset about having just fought with Nat. Otherwise, who knows what's going to happen to me? He might be courteous toward me most of the time, but I mustn't forget that he's none other than Lucifer himself!

Shane did not give her a hard time about it either. Instead, he pinched his brow and went on. “I obviously have my reasons for sending the children away. It's for their sake. Later, after your competition ends, I'll have Natalie sent to them as well so that they can be together.”

“What?” Lina exclaimed in shock. “You mean you're sending Nat away as well?”


Shane merely grunted in response and did not deny it.

Lina gazed at him intently. As though she was finally understanding something, she asked with a solemn expression, “Mr. Thompson, did something bad happen? Is that why you're suddenly making all these decisions?”

Because of Natalie, Lina had known Shane for a considerable period of time.

Thus, she knew that he was not a cold-hearted man and definitely not one who had it in him to abandon his wife and children.

After all, there were enough witnesses of the deep affection between him and Natalie.

Therefore, Lina concluded that something horrendous must have happened to prompt Shane to send both his children and his wife away.

Also, he just said that he was doing this for Natalie and the children's sake.

Something downright terrible must have happened. Since he explicitly mentioned that he's doing all this to protect them, it could also be something that threatens Nat and the children's safety. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a drastic decision.

Shane glanced at Lina and still did not say anything.

However, Lina could tell from his expression that her guess should more or less be on point.

Sighing, she remarked, “I guess something bad has indeed happened, then. Did you tell Nat that you plan to send her away to be with the kids later? If you haven't, then perhaps you should do so. Maybe she'll stop being mad at you after she hears that.”

The way she saw it, he probably had not told Natalie about it yet.

To her surprise, Shane shook his head. “I've told her.”
