It won't be long now... In about a month, I'll be in charge of the branch. I'll also be a CEO by then. Once I hire an

assistant, I can show off Sal and me being all lovey-dovey in front of the assistant.

Half an hour later, the car rolled to a stop at Thompson villa.

Silas opened the door for Natalie.

After she got out of the car, she saw Mrs. Wilson racing out of the house excitedly.

“Oh, madam, you're back!” Mrs. Wilson hurried down the steps and reached Natalie.

Natalie nodded. “Yes, I'm back, Mrs. Wilson.”

“That's perfect. The kids have been missing you for the past two days. They would ask for you during their meals.

Even Mr. Shane was the same. He kept staring dazedly at your usual seat,” Mrs. Wilson said.

Natalie arched her brow in curiosity. “Staring dazedly at my usual seat?”

I'm not surprised to hear the kids thinking and asking for me, but for Shane to stare dazedly at my usual seat is

surprising.

She looked over her shoulder and gave Shane an amused smile. “Darling, I didn't know you missed me so much

that you would even stare at my usual seat.”

Shane didn't expect Mrs. Wilson to catch him spacing out for the past two days and snitched to Natalie about it.

Giving a glare in Mrs. Wilson's direction, he coughed into his fist and turned his head to the side. “No, I didn't. Do I

look like someone who will space out?”

“You weren't before, but you are now.” Before Natalie could say anything, Mrs. Wilson beat her to it and exposed

him.

Carrying Natalie's luggage from the trunk, Silas heard Mrs. Wilson's tease and nodded fervently. ”That's right,

madam. I can attest to her words. Mr. Shane had been spacing out as he stared at your photo in his office for the

past two days.”

Shane didn't expect Silas to betray him too. With a frown, he glared at Silas.

With Natalie there, Silas wasn't scared of him. Since Silas' girlfriend was Natalie's friend, he was bold enough to

snitch on Shane. He looked up at the sky, ignoring Shane's warning glare.

The corner of Shane's lips twitched in frustration.

Fine! I'll deal with him later for betraying me.

“Darling, it looks like Mrs. Wilson wasn't the only witness. Mr. Campbell saw it too. Will you admit to their claim now?

You can always say you miss me. There is nothing to be embarrassed about. I missed you too for the past two

days.” Natalie flashed him a smile before wrapping her arms around his waist. Her arms snaked up to circle the

back of his neck as she asked, “So, do you miss me or not?”

Shane chuckled at the anticipation in her eyes. Circling his arms around her waist, he answered, “I do.”

“Was it a lie then? About you spacing out while thinking about me.”

“It's the truth.” Shane nodded.

Whatever. Since Silas and Mrs. Wilson had already exposed me, I might as well admit it.

Natalie's smile grew wider. “You did well. You should have admitted to it in the first place. I'm touched. After all, you

spacing out with me in your thoughts shows just how important I am to you.”

“You're absolutely right, madam.” Mrs. Wilson nodded. “Mr. Shane has been feeling down when you weren't around.

Sometimes, he would even get all nervous and worried. I imagined those were the traumatic experience left by

Sean taking you away previously. He would become like that when you weren't around for long periods.”

Natalie's smile stiffened at Mrs. Wilson's explanation. She cast a guilty glance at Shane. “I'm sorry, Darling, for

making you worry.”

“It's fine. It'll stop once Sean is caught.”

After all, there's a large organization behind Sean. Even if Natalie has bodyguards protecting her, it's not a fool-

proof plan. Sean might find a loophole and hurt her. That was why I was so worried. Luckily, two days passed, and

she returned safe and sound.

“All right. Let's stop here and go in first. It's cold outside.” Shane pulled the lapels of Natalie's coat tighter around

her.

Natalie nodded. “Right, let's go in.”
