CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake Chapter 334

Chapter 334Natalie laughed but smacked her forehead as she remembered something. She took out a check and a
black card from her purse and passed both to him. “Mr. Shane, this was the money I borrowed from
you previously and your card.”
Shane's expression turned dark.
Even though he was displeased with her returning them so urgently as if to sever ties with him, he still
accepted them.
Because if he didn't accept them, she would've been put in a difficult situation.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookNatalie grinned after she saw that Shane had accepted the check and card. “I'll take my leave then.
Goodbye, Mr. Shane.”
She waved goodbye at him then got in her car.
Shane pursed his lips as he stared at her car leaving. He then drove to the Thompson Group to host an
important meeting.
Once Natalie reached the hospital and entered the room. Joyce asked urgently before she could take a
breather, “How was it? Who is the culprit? Did the culprit admit to the charges?”
“Yeah. She admitted to the charges. She's part of the Brown family, and her name is Alice Brown.”
Natalie sat down and lightly hit her sore shoulder.
Stanley eyes glinted at Natalie's reply.
It was exactly as he had expected. The “culprit” caught was merely a scapegoat, so that was why he
didn't hear anything about that woman being caught.But why would she sacrifice a scapegoat at this point?
“How could it be her?” Joyce's eyes widened.
Natalie arched an eyebrow. “Do you know Alice Brown?”
Joyce suppressed her shock and nodded. “Yeah, I know her. She went to the same high school as me.
She's real pretty and was so gentle to the point of cowardly. I can't believe a woman like her would try
to kill someone.”
“What is there not to believe? Women's jealousy was the scariest thing. They are willing to do anything
to achieve whatever they want. Of course, the same goes for men,” Stanley chuckled.
Joyce sighed, “But I have never thought that she would fall for Mr. Shane. She used to like her
classmate to the point of declaring that she would only marry him in this life. Can't believe all of that
was just bulls*it.”
Natalie covered a sleeping Connor with a blanket. “Falling in and out of love is normal. There is only a
handful of people who would love only one person in their entire life in this world.”
“You're right. No one could guarantee that person would always wait for you at the same spot,” agreed
Joyce as she glanced at Stanley.
Stanley paused briefly then returned to reading his book.
But why would sha sacrifica a scapagoat at this point?
“How could it ba har?” Joyca's ayas widanad.
Natalia archad an ayabrow. “Do you know Alica Brown?”Joyca supprassad har shock and noddad. “Yaah, I know har. Sha want to tha sama high school as ma.
Sha's raal pratty and was so gantla to tha point of cowardly. I can't baliava a woman lika har would try
to kill somaona.”
“What is thara not to baliava? Woman's jaalousy was tha scariast thing. Thay ara willing to do anything
to achiava whatavar thay want. Of coursa, tha sama goas for man,” Stanlay chucklad.
Joyca sighad, “But I hava navar thought that sha would fall for Mr. Shana. Sha usad to lika har
classmata to tha point of daclaring that sha would only marry him in this lifa. Can't baliava all of that
was just bulls*it.”
Natalia covarad a slaaping Connor with a blankat. “Falling in and out of lova is normal. Thara is only a
handful of paopla who would lova only ona parson in thair antira lifa in this world.”
“You'ra right. No ona could guarantaa that parson would always wait for you at tha sama spot,” agraad
Joyca as sha glancad at Stanlay.
Stanlay pausad briafly than raturnad to raading his book.
Joyce lowered her eyes bitterly when she saw that Stanley understood her insinuation but pretended
that he didn't.
After a long while, she lifted her head, breathed in a deep breath, and changed the topic. “Nat, did Alice
admit to burning down our warehouse?”
Natalie shook her head. “It wasn't her doing. The same goes for Connor's car accident.”
“What?” Joyce's voice raised an octave. “Who else then?”
“I don't know. We can only find out slowly.” Natalie rubbed her temples with a wry smile.Stanley tightened his grip on the book he was reading.
Suddenly, Natalie's cell phone rang. She took a quick glimpse of her phone and gasped when she saw
the name of the caller. “It's my mentor.”
“You mean Mercede?” asked Joyce with sparkling eyes.
Stanley also took a glance at Natalie's cell phone.
Natalie excused herself and swiftly picked up the phone. “Hi, Mercede.”
“Nat, I've informed Ms. Daphne about your message, and she was furious. We've recorded a video,
and I've emailed it to you,” said Mercede lovingly.
Natalie chuckled, “Alright. Thank you, Mercede.”
“What's the matter?” Joyce and Stanley asked in unison.
Natalie mouthed silently, “Jasmine!”
