Chapter 50
Natalie smiled at Shane gratefully before stepping out of the office with him.
Ding!
The lift arrived.
Natalie stepped forward, but she was too quick and tripped over the gap in the lift. At that moment, she
lost her balance and fell forward.
Shane saw this and instinctively tried to grab her.
However, instead of regaining balance, he too fell on the floor with her.
They collapsed into the lift, and the lift doors closed.
A slight rumble could be heard, and the lift shook as it elevated.
Natalie was on the ground, and Shane fell on top of her.
Their eyes met and their bodies froze.
Natalie stared at the man in confusion.
Shane too, was stunned by the situation at hand.
He lowered his eyes and looked at her bright red cheeks and her slightly parted lips. His eyes turned
slightly dark.

However, he recovered himself quickly and got up. He adjusted his attire and apologized, “Sorry about
that.”
“It... It’s alright.” Natalie also got up as she replied meekly. She dared not look at him at all.
Her heart was pounding frantically, and she could feel the hotness in her cheeks. It was literally
impossible to calm herself down.
Apart from that fateful night five years ago, she never had such close contact with another man. She
wasn’t even this close to him the previous time they hugged. However, their lips were only millimeters
apart earlier.
As she recalled the scene just now, Natalie lowered her head and peeked at the man’s lips.
They were thin and pale but shaped beautifully. It looks kind of inviting.
Wait, what am I thinking?
Natalie covered her face in embarrassment.
I can’t believe that I’m fantasizing about Shane!
He noticed her reaction and frowned. “What’s wrong? Are you injured?”
“No, no, I’m alright!” Natalie quickly replied.
She was just ashamed of having fantasies about him.
He decided not to probe further upon hearing this and simply gazed down at her.
Natalie was afraid that he could read her mind. She quickly avoided his gaze, turned around, and
cleared her throat awkwardly. “Uhh... Mr. Shane, are you injured?”
“No, I’m fine.” He looked away too and replied nonchalantly.
“That’s good then.” She breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew that she was the reason why he fell down earlier.
If he injured himself because of her, she would feel really bad.
Ding! The lift came to a halt.
Shane stepped out of the lift first, followed by Natalie who quickly recollected herself.
They walked to the design department and Shane pushed open the door to Jasmine’s office.
Jasmine was quite happy and surprised to see him. Getting up, she walked towards him and said,
“Shane! What are you doing...”
It was then she noticed Natalie behind him. The smile on her face immediately froze.
What is going on?
Why are the two of them together?
Natalie pretended not to see Jasmine’s furious expression. Instead, she turned to Shane and said, “Mr.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShane, I’ll go and call her over here.”
The man nodded.
With that, Natalie stepped out of Jasmine’s office and went toward the main office.
“Shane, what are you doing here? Why are you with Natalie?” Jasmine tried to sound him out as she
stared in the direction in which Natalie was heading in.
Shane went straight to her table and sat down. “Natalie found out who stole her drawings. I’m here to
handle the matter for her.”
“Oh? She found the culprit?” Jasmine’s heart instantly skipped a beat. Her palms became sweaty and
her forehead broke out in cold sweat.
How could this be?
The plan was supposed to be foolproof! How is it possible that Natalie found the culprit so quickly?
Could she be lying?
Meanwhile, at the main office.
Natalie walked over to Ashley and tapped on her table. “Ashley, how are you feeling?”
“Ah! hi, Nat. Thank you for asking, I’m feeling a lot better now.” When Ashley looked up and saw that it
was Natalie, she shifted in her seat anxiously.
