“Mr. Shane,” Silas said, looking toward Shane with a mixture of nervousness and hope.
Although she told me to get someone else to do it, Mr. Shane is still my boss. I need to get his permission first.
Shane took in the warning look Natalie shot at him and Silas' hopeful gaze. Massaging his temples, he replied, “Do
as she says.” Practically jumping with excitement, Silas thanked them profusely.
Natalie grinned. “All right. Hurry on your way then.”
“Right away!” Silas picked up the bag and left.
Natalie hugged Shane's arm and chided gently, “I know you regard Mr. Campbell highly, but you have to consider
his situation at times. He's already thirty years old and has finally found a girlfriend. Even if you don't give him more
time off to nurture their budding relationship, you shouldn't overwork him.”
“When have I ever done that?” Shane demanded, looking at her indignantly.

Natalie knew Shane like the back of her hand, and she could tell what was running through his mind with just one
glance. Smiling, she shook her head. “Look at you. I won't talk about all the work you ask him to do during working
hours. However, you also call him after working hours and ask him to do this and that! What's worse, you get him to
do work for you late at night! In this case, aren't you overworking him?”
Shane could not find the words to respond.
It's true. Whenever I need anything, I'll call Silas regardless of the time and day. I've done it for so many years that
I've gotten used to it. Moreover, Silas has never uttered a single complaint. That's why I never thought that I was
doing anything wrong.
“So, you should try and let others do some things now and again. Don't pile everything onto Mr. Campbell. Besides,
you said that you'd transfer him after a while. What's going to happen if he becomes the subsidiary company's
CEO? Are you going to call and ask him to come back when you need something?” Natalie continued, giving him a
smart tap on his forehead.
Shane grabbed her hand and pressed it to his lips. “All right. You're saying all this just because you hope that I'll give
Sally and Silas more time to spend with each other, right?”
“You got me,” Natalie admitted frankly with a laugh.
He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her onto his lap. “You made it so obvious, so how could I have missed
it? Did Sally ask you to say all that?”
“Or course not! It was my own idea. They've had very little time to spend with each other since they started dating,
so I thought I'd try and help them out,” Natalie replied, leaning against his chest.
Shane pondered for a few seconds. “All right. I'll contact the HR department later and ask them to train some other
assistants.”

By doing so, there will be someone to take Silas' place once he gets transferred.
“You're the best, Darling!” Natalie put an arm around his neck and gave him a quick kiss.
Shane's eyes darkened. When Natalie started to move away, he raised his hand and placed it on the back of her
head. Leaning even closer, he pried her lips open and deepened the kiss.
At the same time, Connor and Sharon woke up.
Seeing the scene before them, Sharon was about to call out when Connor quickly covered her mouth and
whispered, “Hush, don't make a sound. Let's pretend to be asleep. If Mommy and Daddy realize that we're awake,
Mommy will get embarrassed and push Daddy away, and Daddy will blame us for it.”
Sharon nodded immediately.
Connor lifted his hand off her mouth. Then they quietly lay back down on the couch and closed their eyes,
pretending to be asleep.
They thought their movements were quiet and did not attract Shane's and Natalie's attention.
In truth, Shane and Natalie had noticed it at once.
