Chapter 146
Natalie burst into laughter while driving.
Soon, she arrived at Thompson Group.
She knocked on Shane’s office door, “Mr. Shane, your car’s ready. Here’s the key.”
Natalie then put the key on his desk. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Shane looked at it for a while and kept the key in his drawer. “The critics are here with us today, and we’ll have a gathering later. Join us.”
“All right.” Natalie nodded.
He then dismissed her with a wave of his hand. “That’s all.”
Natalie then turned around and walked out of his office.
Just when she wanted to press the button of the elevator, the door suddenly opened. A man with a pair of sharp eyes walked out of the elevator with a walking cane and called her, “Natalie!”
Natalie’s expression changed right away, and she took a few steps back. “Hey, Mr. Sean.”
What’s wrong with today? Susan just got out of the hospital, and Sean is also discharged from the hospital?
Isn’t he supposed to be hospitalized for two months?
Upon seeing Natalie’s reaction, Sean inched closer and smirked. “Are you surprised to see me? Do you still remember you’re the one who does this to me?”
Natalie chuckled.
Sean’s expression changed. “What’s with that smile?”
Natalie looked at him and said, “I’m just amused by how you blamed me for your injuries. If I remember correctly, you’re the one who wanted to take advantage of me first. Otherwise, Mr. Shane wouldn’t have done this to you.”
“So you mean I deserve it?” Sean squinted.
Natalie pressed her lips. “You expect me to say you don’t?”
Sean lowered his eyes and smirked.
All of a sudden, he threw away one of his crutches and pinned her to a wall behind.
The impact was so strong that her back hurt, but she was more shocked by his action. “What are you doing!”
Sean did not answer her. He stepped closer and dropped the other crutch. Before Natalie could attempt an escape, he slammed his hands on the wall and trapped her in between.
Natalie was stunned for a bit, but she immediately exclaimed in anger, “Let me go!”
Sean stood still.
Natalie balled her fingers to a fist and was ready to throw a punch at him.
Sean then whispered to her ear, “Think twice before you hit me. I’ve yet to recover from the old injuries, mind you. If my injuries get worse, you’ll have to compensate me and take care of me.”
Upon hearing that, Natalie’s hand froze in mid-air.
Sean sighed as if he was disappointed that she stopped right there. “Are you not going to hit me? Come on, do it.”
“Stop it!” Natalie roared and shot an angry glance at him. “What do you want from me? Can you please stop pestering me?”
Sean put on a sly smile. “Sure. But you have to do something for me.”
“What?” Natalie was all tensed up, and she immediately got into a defensive mode.
I don’t feel good about this.
Sean snickered. Before he could tell Natalie what he wanted her to do, Silas came out from his office.
A beam of hope twinkled in Natalie’s eyes. She shouted to get his attention, “Mr. Campbell!”
Silas heard her voice and turned around. He was shocked to see the position they were in. “What are you two doing?”
“Just catching up with Natalie since I haven’t seen her for quite some time.” Sean stroke the edges of her hair and asked her, “Right?”
Natalie knew he was warning her not to ask for trouble, but she did not play along. She shook her head and explained, “That’s not true. I bumped into Mr. Sean, and he stopped me from leaving. Could you please ask him to move aside? He’s injured, and I don’t want to hurt him by accident.”
Sean’s expression changed, and he looked at her in disbelief.
