Chapter 645

He did not expect that she would suddenly mention him, so he looked up at her.

However, Jacqueline could not see their actions. She lowered her head and replied shyly, “Yeah, I do like
Shane. To me, he’s like a big tree that can protect me from anything. That’s why I’ve never gotten over
him. But today, Jackie confessed to me. Only then did I know that he’d always loved me.”

Natalie narrowed her eyes and asked, “So you didn’t know Dr. Baker’s feelings for you in the past?”

Jacqueline shook her head. “I didn’t. Jackie never showed it to me. I thought he treated me well because
we were childhood friends.”

“Since you don’t like Dr. Baker, why’d you still agree to be with him then?” Natalie then asked again.

In reality, Shane wanted to know the reason as well.

Although he had asked Jackson to confess, he never thought that Jackson would be successful that
quickly.

Thus, he was indeed curious about the reason behind that.

“It’s simple. Jackie said he would protect me as well next time. Since I can’t be with Shane, I’ve to
choose Jackie. Although I don’t like him now, I’ll do my best to slowly fall in love with him.”

She spoke with a firm expression. As a result, one could not tell whether she was speaking the truth.



Nevertheless, Natalie did not want to guess either. She had some soup, then said softly, “You’d better do
as you say then, Ms. Graham. Don’t have any other intentions, or you’ll lose the person you love the
most. If that happens, you’ll definitely lose more than you’ve gained.”



Jacqueline recognized the warning in her words. However, she did not get angry and instead smiled and
nodded. She replied, “I know.”

Just like that, dinner ended.

Afterward, Shane held onto Natalie as they headed back to the room.

She lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling. “Darling, do you think Ms. Graham and Dr. Baker will be
happy together?”

She was very shocked at what happened that night.

She loved Shane so much that she repeatedly targeted me. But, she has actually agreed to date
someone else now? It certainly was surprising news.

“Their affairs have nothing to do with us. I know we’ll be happy,” he replied, leaning over to press her
body down.

She rolled her eyes. “Okay, get up.”

However, he did not move.

She then pushed him. “Hurry and get up. I want to take a shower.”

“What a coincidence. I want to do that too. Let’s shower together.”

Then, as soon as he was done speaking, he pulled her up and walked toward the bathroom.

Once Natalie saw his action, she knew what he wanted to do. Thus, she held onto her forehead, feeling
dumbfounded.

However, she did not refuse him. After all, lovers had to mutually make concessions and love each other.



After all, he had done so much for her and provided her with a lot of help. She could not help him in
terms of work and money. Thus, she could only treat him a little better for such a thing.

They went at it throughout the night.

The next day, she rubbed her aching back as she walked downstairs. Just then, she noticed Jacqueline
sitting on the sofa and talking on the phone.

Hearing her say “Jackie,” Natalie immediately understood that she was calling Jackson.

She could not help but raise her eyebrows.

They’d only been together for one night. Is their relationship already so good that they’re talking on the
phone so early in the morning?

One had to know that before they got together, Natalie hardly ever saw Jacqueline call Jackson.

Not wanting to disturb Jacqueline, she quickly walked away.

After breakfast, she took her two children out.

Only after she sent them to kindergarten did she head to the company.

Just as she arrived at the company, Lina grabbed Natalie’s hand and dragged her toward the elevator.

As they ran, Natalie almost sprained her ankle along the way.

Fortunately, Lina stopped just in time to avoid that tragedy.

In the elevator, Natalie panted slightly and asked, “Why’re you in such a hurry? I just got here and didn’t
even put down my bag yet, but you already pulled me to the elevator.”



“I want to take you to meet someone,” Lina replied as she tidied her hair.
