Joyce seemed to be conscious of the things Natalie had in mind. She tapped on her friend's shoulder and said,

“Speaking of which, aren't you going to conduct another DNA examination?”

“That's my plan, but I can't get my hands on the sample I need because Shane's not around.”

Joyce shrugged her shoulders and suggested, “Just take your time. If it turns out they're related, it's time for you to

talk about it with him. If they're not related, I think it's better for you to leave him. On top of that...”

“What?”

“Well, on top of the affection you have for him, haven't you gotten married to him because he's Connor and

Sharon's father? He has to take care of Connor and Sharon if that's the case, but you can't possibly expect him to

execute the role of a father if they're not related, can you?”

Natalie gaped at Joyce's rhetorical question. In the end, she shook her head and answered, “I guess you're right.”

Indeed, I married Shane because he's the man I love and my children's father. If that's not the case, I'm not that

shameless of a woman to insist on having him take care of Connor and Sharon.

“See? There are quite a lot of things you have to sort out. Take a break and gather your thoughts. I'll drop by the

mill on your behalf.”

Once Joyce departed, Natalie started brainstorming her next best course of action.

Meanwhile, Joyce made her way to Thompson Group instead of dropping by the textile mill as she had mentioned.

She couldn't stand her friend sulking over a man anymore. Thus, she thought of teaching Shane a lesson on

Natalie's behalf.

As soon as she pulled over at the entrance, she made her way to the elevator that was exclusive to the CEO without

informing the receptionist.

Startled by Joyce's presence, it took the receptionist a few seconds to snap out of bewilderment. She rushed over to

stop Joyce. “Miss, you're not allowed to be here because this is designated for the CEO only. If you need to head

upstairs, please make use of the elevator over there.”

Joyce brought herself to a halt and asked, “Can I reach the highest floor using that elevator over there?”

Stupefied by the question Joyce directed at her, she shook her head and answered, “That's impossible.”

“See? Since I'm heading to the highest floor, isn't this the elevator to take?”

Joyce was about to board the elevator once she made herself clear, but the receptionist got in her way and grasped

her wrist to stop her.

“Miss, I'm afraid that's impossible because the highest floor is the CEO and chairman's office.”

Shrugging the receptionist off, Joyce yelled, “I'm here for the CEO! Why can't I make my way to the highest floor?

Stay out of my way!”

As the receptionist had no intention to give in just yet, Joyce was about to let loose of herself and yell at the

receptionist.

Out of the blue, two people walked out of the designated elevator. They were none other than Silas and Jacqueline.

When they found out Joyce was in the middle of a conflict with the receptionist, they were equally shocked and

confused.

Jacqueline got ahead of Silas and asked, “Ms. Rivers, why are you here?”

When Joyce heard Jacqueline's question, she answered with a frown, “Is that any of your concerns? What about

you? Why are you here?” Jacqueline chuckled and replied with her chest held high, “Well, I'll soon be a staff of

Thompson Group. I need something to kill my time after being discharged from the hospital.”

“You're a soon-to-be staff of Thompson Group? May I know the exact position you're holding?”

“I'm Shane's secretary!”

Joyce rolled her eyes and remarked sarcastically, “Secretary? Is your main duty keeping him entertained?”

“Ms. Rivers, please mind your words!” Jacqueline raised her volume and warned Joyce with a stern look.

“Why are you getting worked up over a trivial question? Have I hit the bullseye? You're just trying to drive them

apart, aren't you? I mean, everyone is aware of the sort of affection you have for Mr. Shane.”

Jacqueline's face puckered in irritation. She clenched her fists and announced, “Ms. Rivers, Jackie's my boyfriend.

Stop blurting out baseless accusations. Otherwise, I'll you for defamation.”
