Chapter 113
Harrison liquidated all of his assets and parts of his shares to sustain the company. In the end, the company’s operation finally got back on track once again.
Undeniably, Harrison was a decisive man, capable of making the tough decision to get himself out of the nasty situation. It was just like how he chased Yulia, Natalie and Jared out of the family back then.
Natalie’s trail of thoughts was interrupted when someone knocked on her door. “Ms. Natalie, those from the dress-making department told me the outfits are ready for inspection. You may drop by and inspect the outfits. If there’s anything that requires amendments, they’ll proceed to deal with it accordingly.”
“Alright. I’ll head over immediately.”
She nodded and switched off her computer after she finished her sentence. After she packed her stuff, she departed and walked out of her office.
The moment she reached the lobby, someone walked out of the elevator. The person was none other than Sean. As usual, he adjusted his glasses and greeted, “Hey, what a coincidence!”
Natalie nodded and casually greeted, “Hello, Mr. Sean”
“I am looking for you.”
She was about to step into the elevator, but when she heard his words, she took a step back and looked at him in confusion. “You’re looking for me?”
Sean waved an invitation card before her. “My birthday is in a few days. I hope you’ll drop by with the children. Please don’t turn me down. Otherwise, I’ll tell Shane he’s the father of the children.”
Her pupil constricted as she was taken aback by his words. After a few seconds, she snapped out of her daze and queried, “Y-You… H-How did you manage to figure the identity of their father?”
“Actually, it’s a piece of cake to get to the identity of their father. After all, your son resembles Shane. I’m pretty sure you’re not aware of Shane’s doubts, right? He shared a similar thought back then due to the exact same reason.”
“What? Are you serious?”
He must be kidding, right? Please tell me it’s a bad joke!
“The moment Shane encountered your son, he had suspected if he was Connor’s father. He did a DNA test, but Jasmine was aware of the test and swapped the blood samples of your children. Therefore, he had gotten his hands on a report that had shown otherwise.”
Natalie heaved a sigh of relief deep down and felt a heavy boulder lifted off her shoulder due to Jasmine’s seemingly cunning action.
Jasmine had, indirectly, did her a favor and saved her from the trouble. Otherwise, Shane would have long brought her children away from her.
Sean approached Natalie and asked, “Also, I’m aware you don’t want Shane to figure out he’s their father, isn’t it?”
Consequently, Natalie took a step back and asked, “So? Are you threatening me? Are you going to tell him the truth if I turn you down?”
Nodding, Sean asserted, “Exactly! You’re such a smart woman! I don’t even have to waste my time explaining myself!”
“Why? Why does it have to be me? What is it about me that has intrigued you? Why won’t you stay away from me?”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
She raised her head and looked at Sean because she couldn’t figure out the reason behind his odd behavior.
Leaning over, he ran his finger through her long hair and whispered, “Haven’t I made myself clear? I have a thing for you because you’re the most interesting woman I have ever encountered throughout my life!”
Natalie shrugged him off and took another step back to stay away from him, behaving as though a beast was in front of her.
Sean’s expression turned gloomy the moment he caught a glimpse of Natalie’s fearful look, but he soon returned to his usual self and handed over the invitation card to her. “I’ll be expecting your attendance.”
Immediately after Sean finished his sentence, he waved at her and bade her farewell, walking off in another direction.
Gazing at the invitation card Sean handed over to her before she took another peek at the man’s departing figure, Natalie heaved a long sigh of despair because there wasn’t anything she could do about it.
Since he had dropped a threat, she decided to drop by in order to figure out his ulterior goal of inviting her.
After she made up her mind, she placed the invitation card in her bag and boarded the elevator once again.
Fifteen minutes later, she finally reached the dress-making department.
She noticed Shane was around as she made her way in. “Mr. Shane, what are you doing here?”
He turned around and explained himself indifferently, “I heard the outfits for the show are ready. As the person in charge, I’m not supposed to be clueless, right? What about you? Why are you late?”
He sent someone to get her half an hour ago. Therefore, he couldn’t help but wonder the reason she was late.
Natalie placed her bag aside and explained, “I got caught up with something on my way here. Mr. Shane, shall we focus on the outfits?”
