Chapter 638

Still, she was too gorgeous to pose a threat. On the contrary, it made him want to ravish her.

Sean’s gaze darkened as his heart fluttered.

However, he knew he couldn’t do anything to hurt her. It wasn’t that he was a person with moral values. It
was because he was afraid of Shane.

Shane was no longer the man from five years ago who he could bully.

If I actually harmed Shane’s wife, he would definitely get his revenge.

At that thought, Sean let out a disappointed sigh. He ran his fingers across Natalie’s cheek. “Nat, I
remembered what I said. I am a man of my word, provided that the clues you gave me are true. If they
are fake…”

He trailed off, leaving her to draw her own conclusions.

Natalie shuddered as his fingers felt like a snake slithering over her skin. She felt both disgusting and
fearful.

“I’m not lying to you. Shane’s the one who revealed the clues to me.” Natalie’s fists balled up as she
forced herself to not show any fear.

It’s over the minute he sees through my act.



Natalie’s act managed to fool Sean for he chose to trust her and stood up.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Natalie climbed to her feet and dashed to the door. She stayed away from him
and kept her guard up.



Sean found her reaction amusing as he laughed out loud.

“Why are you laughing?” Natalie’s lips thinned in displeasure.

Sean finally put on his glasses. “Nothing. I find you cute, that’s all.”

Natalie’s brows scrunched up at his words. “Mr. Sean, are you flirting with me?”

“Of course not. I was praising you. To be honest, Nat, you’re the most interesting woman I’ve ever met. I
really regret it now.” Sean pushed his glasses and expressed his regret.

Natalie stared at him suspiciously. “Regret?”

“Yes. I regret not appearing at the hotel five years ago to stop you. Otherwise, we might end up together
now,” said Sean as he let out a deliberate sigh.

Natalie merely scoffed. She was about to retort when Sean added, “Actually, it’s because of me you and
Shane get to be together.”

“Huh?” Natalie was puzzled. “You?”

“Yes.” Sean came to her slowly. “Five years ago, it was I who drugged Shane and caused him to sleep
with you. So? Are you going to thank me?”

Natalie was shocked into silence.

Turns out it was Sean who drugged Shane. Yes, if he hadn’t done that, Shane and I wouldn’t have slept
together. I would’ve been raped by that old man Jasmine arranged for me. Thank him, though?

Natalie snickered. I can’t do that.



“Mr. Shane, since I’ve revealed everything, can I leave now?” Natalie placed her hand on the door
handle behind her back, ready to open the door any minute.

Sean shrugged. “Of course. But I hope Shane won’t find out about our meeting today.”

Natalie glanced at him briefly before nodding in acknowledgment. She then pushed the door open to
leave.

When the bodyguards saw her exiting the room, her hair a disheveled mess, they asked grimly, “Madam,
are you alright?”

Natalie waved a hand. “I’m fine. Let’s go.”

She strode toward the elevator without waiting for them.

The bodyguards glanced at the private room before catching up to her.

On the way to the company, Natalie gave Shane a call.

His low voice sounded through the line. “Did you finish meeting Sean?”

“Mm,” came Natalie’s tired reply as she massaged her brows.
