Chapter 88

When he raised his head, he saw that the huge crystal chandelier on the ceiling was on the brink of

collapsing onto them. There were only a few electrical wires holding it to the ceiling.

However, the wires were already extremely taut. It was obvious that they could not withstand the weight

of the chandelier for a long time.

Indeed, the wires snapped in the next instant, sending the humongous chandelier crashing onto them.

Shane’s eyes widened as he quickly shoved Natalie away.

Natalie collapsed onto the floor a distance away, clueless about what was happening. The pain caused

her to gasp loudly.

On the other hand, when Shane pushed her away, he missed the perfect timing to dodge and the

chandelier crashed right onto him.

Utterly dumbfounded, Natalie’s mind became a complete blank. A long time passed before she

managed to return to her senses. Crawling to Shane’s side frantically, she yelled with bloodshot eyes,

“Mr. Shane! Mr. Shane!”

However, he remained silent. Lying under the chandelier limply, his eyes were shut and his face was

terrifyingly pale. His body kept trembling, which was evident that he was severely injured.

Natalie quickly tossed her heels aside and stood up, planning to lift the chandelier up and rescue him.

However, it was so heavy that she could not move it at all and even grazed her palm.

Overwhelmed by anxiety, she burst into tears. “Hang in there, Mr. Shane. I’ll call for help!”

As she spoke, she released the chandelier and prepared to leave.

However, the moment when she spun around, Shane suddenly coughed a mouthful of blood as he lost

his consciousness.

He only woke up two days later.

As he stared at the white walls, he instantly knew where he was. However, when he tried to sit up, he

grunted in pain due to his wound.

When Natalie heard him, a delighted look flashed across her face. She quickly placed the kettle down

and rushed to the hospital bed. “You’re awake, Mr. Shane.”

Silas, who was standing at the balcony, also hung up the call and entered. He exclaimed excitedly, “Mr.

Shane!”

Turning his neck stiffly to look at both of them, he weakly grunted in acknowledgement. “What

happened to me?”

Natalie was about to answer him when Silas interjected, “You suffered a huge impact on your back,

which also injured your organs. Other than that, you’ve also broken two of your ribs. One of them

almost stabbed your heart!”

With that, he swiveled around and glared at Natalie furiously.

Knowing that Shane was so severely injured because he wanted to save her, she lowered her head

guiltily. “I’m sorry, Mr. Shane.”

“What’s the use of apologizing now?” chided Silas coldly. “Summon the doctor here!”

“Okay, I’ll do it right away!” Natalie dashed out of the hospital ward.

After she left, Silas wet a cotton bud and moistened Shane’s lips. He lamented, “Mr. Shane, she is

Sean’s woman. Why did you save her? Did you know that you almost died?”

Shane lifted the hand that was not attached to the IV drip and massaged his temples. “The reason why

I saved her has nothing to do with her relationship with Sean. Instead, it’s because she’s an employee

of the Thompson Group. As her boss, I have a duty of ensuring her safety. More importantly, she has

saved me twice.”

When he heard that, Silas opened his mouth to rebuke, but found himself at a loss for words.

Yeah, if Natalie didn’t save Mr. Shane, who was injured from those stab wounds, he might have died

already.

Shane placed his hand down and asked solemnly, “News about my injury is not leaked out, right?”

If Sean discovered that he was injured, he would definitely think of a way to stop him from returning to

the country.

Using the excuse that he had to recuperate overseas and could not manage the company, Sean would

convince those old men, who were already disloyal to him, to steal a share of his authority.

Naturally, Silas knew what Shane was concerned about. He shook his head and assured, “Don’t worry,

Mr. Shane. I managed to stop the news from being leaked. Although Sean is still clueless, Ms. Jasmine

is investigating your whereabouts.”

A cold gleam flashed across his eyes. “Why is she investigating me?”

Silas tossed the cotton bud into the dustbin. “She’s probably worried because you didn’t return home

yesterday and she can’t contact you. Do you want to call her back?”
