Chapter 1759 Teased

Natalie replied with a smile, “I'm giving you a massage. Since you've been holding me for

so long, your arm must be uncomfortable. Let me help you loosen up a bit. I'll give you a

shoulder massage tonight.”

“Okay. Thank you, dear,” Shane responded with a deep and affectionate voice.

“You're welcome,” Natalie said as she proceeded to massage his arm again.

Chatting and laughing, the couple left their room and descended the stairs to the dining

room.

Stanley and Lina were already sitting in the dining room at that moment.

Seated side by side, they were engaged in conversation and seemed to be enjoying each

other's company. At least there was nothing off about the atmosphere.

This left Natalie feeling both surprised and astonished.

After all, ever since Lina learned about the grudges between Stanley and Joyce, she had

held a strong dislike for Stanley.

However, Lina's attitude toward Stanley seemed to have changed. Otherwise, she

wouldn't be sitting with him and speaking to him in such a pleasant manner. Natalie didn't

know what happened between them that led to the shift in Lina's attitude toward Stanley.

Upon hearing footsteps, Lina and Stanley ceased their conversation and turned to look

simultaneously.

When Stanley saw Shane and Natalie walking hand in hand, he didn't react much. He

merely sipped his tea calmly.

Lina, on the other hand, was more playful. Grinning, she teased, “Oh, Mr. Thompson and

Nat, you finally decided to show up. You two are holding hands to a meal in the dining

room. Can't bear to be apart, can you?”

As Natalie was not as thick-skinned as Shane, she felt somewhat embarrassed.

Shane, on the other hand, seemed utterly unfazed. He casually arched his eyebrow and

cast a cool, indifferent glance at Lina.

Immediately, Lina gulped and fell silent. She looked utterly terrified of him.

Natalie couldn't help but shake her head and laugh at what she was seeing.

Indeed, Shane was the only one who could intimidate Lina.

Despite being afraid of Shane, Lina still dared to tease him every time she saw him.

Then, right after making a joke, she had to face Shane's cold gaze, which frightened her.

Despite being scared every time, Lina always returned to her old ways, thus repeating this

cycle over and over. She had no one else to blame but herself.

However, with Lina here, daily life had become much more interesting.

When Shane pulled out a chair, patted the back of it, and gestured for Natalie to sit down,

she sat down with a smile without refusing because there was no need to.

After Natalie sat down, Shane pulled out another chair next to her and took a seat.

After both of them were seated, the housekeeper began to serve the dishes.

The table was quickly filled up as dish after dish of sumptuous delicacies was served. The

tantalizing aroma was simply mouth-watering.

Lina's eyes sparkled as she looked at the dishes. “Wow, this is amazing! Thanks to Dr.

Quinn, we're in for a treat tonight.”

Upon hearing her, Stanley chuckled lightly. “I'm glad you like it, Ms. Cohen, but the credit

doesn't belong to me. You should thank Nat. She's the one who instructed the chefs to

make these dishes.”

Waving her hand dismissively, Lina replied, “That's also because you're here that we have

so many dishes tonight. I usually don't get to eat this much.”

A twitch played at the corner of Natalie's mouth. “Lina, are you hinting that we've been

treating you poorly and not letting you eat well?”

Shane shot Lina a cold glare, which caused the smile on her face to freeze. Quickly

realizing that she had misspoken, she looked at the couple with an awkward expression on

her face.

Lina felt a chill running down her spine as she looked back and forth between the couple's

expressions. One of them was half-smiling and the other was glaring at her coldly.

Lina had no choice but to reply, “No, not at all! Nat, how can you and Mr. Thompson ever

treat me poorly? Every meal I have here has been meticulously prepared by a top-notch

chef. It's just that I usually dine alone and rarely see so many dishes. I guess I was too

excited seeing so many dishes at once, so I spoke without thinking.”

Lina swore that she wasn't hinting about how they treated her and claimed that it was just

her excitement of seeing so much food.

Then, she suddenly felt indignant because she thought she shouldn't be blamed for her

reaction.

Whenever Natalie and Shane weren't giving each other the cold shoulder, they were as

inseparable as conjoined twins. They even had to be all lovey-dovey when eating, which

made Lina feel like a glaring third wheel. Hence, she generally avoided dining with them

and only joined them occasionally.
