Chapter 753

Natalie laughed out loud and quipped, “Oh, so you do remember that this is your room! For a moment, I
thought the only place you call home was the room you shared with Jacqueline.”

“Stop being unreasonable, Natalie. There is nothing between Jacqueline and me,” Shane defended
himself with a frown.

“Who are you trying to deceive? Jacqueline goes into your room in the middle of the night, and she
regularly visits your apartment. Now you are even back here together. And you’re telling me there is
nothing between the two of you? Are you taking me as a fool, Mr. Shane?” Natalie sneered.

Shane’s brows knitted together tightly, and he emphasized, “I’m not lying to you.”

“It’s okay. I don’t wish to fight with you over this. Please leave the room.” Natalie pleaded as she
massaged her forehead, sensing a headache coming.

Shane saw her discomfort and got concerned. He hopped over, wanting to comfort her, but he detected
a whiff of cologne on her.

It was not his usual minty scent, but rather, an aquatic fresh scent.

It was the scent of another man.

That made him mad with jealousy. He caught hold of her wrist and pushed her onto the bed,
demanding, “Tell me, who did you meet?”

“Huh?” Natalie was shocked by his action and puzzled by his question. “What are you saying? I didn’t
meet anyone!”

Shane let out a snigger. “How did that man’s cologne end up on you if you didn’t meet anyone?”



Cologne?

Natalie was baffled, so she took a sniff at her own body.

Indeed, there was a faint scent on her. It was the cologne Stanley frequently used.

It was likely transferred onto her clothes when he supported her earlier during her headache episode.

“Well, that’s none of your business.” Natalie turned her face away from him, reluctant to explain any
further. She knew if she told him it was Stanley, Shane would be hopping mad, as he greatly disliked
that man.

What Natalie did not expect was that Shane would be more infuriated by her silence.

He tightened the grip on her hand, causing her to yelp out in pain.

Normally, he would have let go when he saw that she was in pain. However, jealousy and anger made
him irrational. Not only did he not let go, but he pushed her harder onto the bed.

“Are you cheating on me, Natalie?” he roared.

“Is that how you see me, Shane?” Natalie’s eyes widened in anger.

“Then tell me why you had the man’s scent on you! If you were not intimate with a man, how would his
scent end up on your body?” he hollered.

“Yes, our bodies touched. I was about to fall, and he caught hold of me. Don’t think that everyone
behaves just like you and Jacqueline,” Natalie replied angrily. At the same time, she was deeply hurt by
his accusation.

Seeing the aggrieved and angry look in her eyes, Shane calmed down. He could tell she was speaking
the truth and that he had misunderstood her.



He loosened his grip on her but did not let her go. The man continued to pin her under him, so he could
look her straight in her eyes and explain. “There is also nothing between Jacqueline and me.”

Natalie snorted and turned her face away, not willing to believe him.

Seeing that, Shane was provoked, and his anger rose again. “What will it take for you to believe
me?”Natalie shook her head and stared him straight in the eyes, saying,

“I would never believe you. Just like you did not believe me when I told you my mom could not have
knocked down your parents.”

Shane’s face fell as he heard that. He got up from her and answered, “That’s not the same. I had
evidence; I saw it with my own eyes.”

Natalie sat up and demanded, “Then show me your evidence!”

“No!” Shane rejected her demands without hesitation.

“I knew it… You won’t show me because you can’t. You don’t have the evidence.” Natalie mocked.

“Did you really think so?” Shane looked her deep in her eyes and asked.

Natalie calmly met his gaze and stood firm on her demand. “Make me think otherwise. Show me the
evidence and make me believe you.”
