Feel the Way You Feel, My Love

Chapter 270

“Looks like he has brainwashed you really well,” Shane said icily, his eyes narrowing into a thin line.

Natalie frowned at him. “Brainwashed? Mr. Shane, what do you mean by that?”

Shane stepped closer to her. “What I mean is that Stanley isn’t as innocent and kind as you think he is. I’ve tried telling you this before. The last time, he tried to drug you and get you into bed with him. This time, he pretended to be drunk, so he could force a kiss on you and emerge completely blameless. And you think both of these incidents are accidents on his part?”

Natalie laughed. “Mr. Shane, don’t you think you’re too prejudiced against Stanley?”

Shane clenched his fists. Looking very displeased, he demanded, “Do you think I’m saying this because I’m prejudiced against him?”

Natalie pursed her red lips. “You’ve always been hostile towards Stanley. If this isn’t prejudice, then I don’t know what is!”

Shane fell silent. After a while, the expression on his face grew icy-cold. With a mocking smile on his face, he said, “I see. This is what you really think of me, right?”

Shane looked down and tried to hide the anger that was swirling in his eyes. Failing to do so, he turned around and left.

This woman had claimed that, deep in her heart, she was truly in love with me.

However, when she was caught between Stanley and me, she kept choosing to believe Stanley instead!

Natalie watched him go, feeling a little miserable. Knowing that he was probably infuriated with her, she wondered if she should hold him back from leaving.

In the end, however, she held herself back instead.

Before returning to J City yesterday night, she had promised herself that she would stay as far away from Shane as possible. Even if they happened to bump into each other, she would regard him as a stranger. Hence, stopping him from leaving now would go against her plan.

Tugging uncertainly at the strap of her bag, Natalie laughed bitterly and left as well.

When she exited the office building, she looked up to see that the sky was dark and gloomy. A cold gust of wind blew through the streets. It was probably going to rain.

Natalie shivered and rubbed her arms tiredly. She hailed a taxi and made her way home.

The next morning, Natalie was woken up by a very excited Yulia. There was a huge smile on her face, and she appeared to have very good news to share.

Yulia wriggled her way on Natalie’s bed and stuck her phone in front of Natalie’s face. “Hey, Baby Girl! Here’s some good news for you.”

Natalie rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed. She took the phone from Yulia, jolting awake immediately when she saw the contents on its screen. There was a new post under Shane’s Facebook page—it announced that he had called off his engagement with Jasmine and that the couple would stay out of each other’s lives from then on.

Yulia took the phone back from her. “What about it, Baby Girl? Doesn’t this make you happy?”

Natalie gaped at her but didn’t reply.

Of course she was happy, but so what if she was?

Now that Shane had canceled his engagement with Jasmine, it was only a matter of time before he got engaged with Jacqueline.

Seeing the dazed expression on Natalie’s face, and her refusal to answer Yulia’s question, the smile faded from Yulia’s face as well. Giving her daughter a light shove, Yulia asked, “What’s wrong, Baby Girl?”

“I’m fine.” Natalie shook her head and clambered out of bed. “Alright, Mom. The cancellation of Shane’s engagement has nothing to do with me. It’s his own personal business, and we shouldn’t be poking our noses into it. Let’s not talk about this from now on.”

Hearing this, Yulia looked deeply at her. “Baby Girl, did something happen between you and Shane?”

Natalie paused in the middle of changing her clothes. After a slight pause, she continued changing and laughed brightly. “Mom, why would you say that?”

“In the past, I told you to let go of Shane so many times. Even though you promised to do so, you never really took my words to heart. However, when I mentioned Shane just now, you seemed so reluctant to discuss him, so I wondered…”

Before she could finish speaking, Yulia was interrupted by the ringing of the doorbell.

Natalie had no wish to continue discussing Shane with her. Desperate to change the topic, she said, “Mom, I’ll go open the door!”

With that, she fled out of the room.

That made Yulia even more certain that something had happened between Shane and Natalie.

However, Yulia wasn’t particularly curious about their relationship. She could tell how reluctant Natalie was to discuss the topic of Shane.

Yulia sighed and laughed to herself. “Oh, bother. The youngsters can go resolve their problems themselves.” She climbed out of bed and went out of the room. Just as she stepped out of the door,NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
