CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1777

Chapter 1777 To The Rescue

Shane reached out his hand toward her back, resting it on the back of the chair behind her. “Nat, do you think Shane will be able to come to us smoothly?” he asked.

Natalie stared at him intently. “Of course, I believe in him. He can definitely do it!”

Shane laughed again. “Perhaps, after he arrives, he might be missing an arm or a leg?”

These words immediately caused Natalie's face to drastically change. “You've buried a bomb?”

Shane gave a light laugh. “Who knows?”

He shrugged his shoulders, then lowered his eyelids, falling silent. No one knew what he was thinking.

But Natalie believed his demeanor was indeed an admission that he had a bomb hidden.

Perhaps, it's not just bombs, but also guns? In that case, wouldn't Shane be...

The thought of that possibility sent a chill through Natalie's entire body, leaving her stunned and her mind a complete blank.

But now she was tied up, unable to do anything but stare helplessly at the computer screen in front of her. The only thing she could do was to pray fervently, hoping for Shane and his group to arrive safely.

But clearly, the heavens did not hear Natalie's prayers.

Perhaps they heard it, but chose to ignore it.

The number of people standing with Shane was dwindling. One after another, they fell. The injuries on Shane's body were increasing. Even though his face was covered in grime and chaos, Natalie could still see his complexion gradually turning pale.

That was a sign of excessive blood loss.

But even so, Shane did not give up and continued to move forward.

Upon seeing this, Natalie couldn't bear to continue watching.

She turned her head away, tears continuously falling. Yet she made no sound of crying.

Seeing her like this, Sean's eyes flickered. Suddenly, he asked, “Nat, if I were to die, would you cry for me like you are now?”

Natalie lifted her head, her eyes filled with hatred as she looked at him. “Never. If you die, I would only laugh, not cry!”

How could this person be so wicked, resorting to any means necessary to achieve his goals? How could I possibly cry for such a person?

Moreover, this person had repeatedly hurt her and Shane. She wished Sean would die sooner.

Upon hearing Natalie's words, a hint of self-mockery flashed in Shane's eyes. “Is that so... I thought

that our last meeting might change your impression of me a bit. I didn't expect that in your heart, I'm so unworthy, so unworthy that you wish I were dead.”

The last time we meet? What does he mean?

Natalie's crying abruptly halted, then she lifted her head to look at him. Her red lips moved slightly, about to ask what was really going on.

Suddenly, the tent flap was hastily thrown open, and a person rushed in, panting, “Mr. Thompson, we've got trouble. Shane and his people are here.”

Upon hearing this, Natalie's eyes immediately widened. Her surprise was unmistakable in her gaze. She was so excited that her body began to tremble slightly. “Shane is here, this is great. This is great. I knew it! I knew it!”

He will surely be able to succeed. I just don't know what his situation is right now.

Just as she turned her head away from the computer, Shane had already shut it down, so she didn't see what was on the screen afterward.

I hope everything is alright with Shane.

Natalie was feeling uneasy inside. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Shane had been watching her all along, observing her emotions shift from joy to worry. His gaze flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he simply instructed the person who had just entered, “Is that so? Then let's proceed as planned.”

“Yes.” The person who entered responded, then turned around and left.

Natalie looked at him. “Shane, what are you trying to do?”

Shane paid her no mind. Instead, he opened a drawer and pulled out an extremely beautiful box.

He opened the box and took out a necklace, then walked toward Natalie.

Seeing the situation, Natalie instinctively wanted to dodge, but she was tied to a chair and couldn't escape. All she could do was watch wide-eyed as Shane approached her.

Shane paused for a moment in front of her, gently touched her face, then suddenly moved behind her to put a necklace on her. “This is the last gift I'm giving you. I designed it myself, you know. Please cherish it, Nat. After all, this is the only piece in the whole world.”
