CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 180

“Medication?” Yulia was anxious and walked up to them. “Baby Girl, what happened?”

“Nothing, it’s just that I fell down when I was outside.” Natalie gestured towards her arm with her lips and responded to her mother nonchalantly.

Shane picked up the bandage and went around her arm a few times before tying a neat bow. “There, you are done.”

“Thank you, Mr. Shane.” Natalie unrolled her sleeves. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Yulia’s face relaxed and she smiled at Shane. “Thank you, Shane.”

“No big deal.” Shane tossed the cotton bud into the trash can before standing up. “May I have a chat with you, Yulia?”

“What about?” Yulia looked at him, puzzled.

Shane pursed his lips and said, “My grandpa was very close to you during the last few months before he died. I’d like to find out more about you and my grandpa.”

Since he found out yesterday that his parents’ death had to do with his grandfather, he realized that he had never gotten to know him.

Perhaps he would be able to find out more about his grandfather through Natalie’s mother.

“About this...” Yulia frowned rather awkwardly.

Natalie pulled on her sleeve. “Mom!”

Yulia shot Natalie an annoyed glance and muttered, “You are always on his side!”

Natalie stuck out her tongue cheekily.

Yulia pinched her nose exasperatedly and told Shane, “Alright, come to the study with me then.”

With that, Yulia headed to the study.

Instead of following her immediately, Shane thanked Natalie first.

He knew very well that if not for her, her mother would not have agreed so readily.

After about half an hour, both Shane and Yulia emerged from the study.

With a tensed face, Shane said, “Yulia, I’ll make a move first then.”

“Alright.” Yulia nodded.

Shane glanced at Natalie before leaving.

Natalie closed the door. “Mom, what did you tell him?”

Yulia sat on the sofa and switched on the television with the remote control. “Just some things about his grandfather’s past.”

“Why does Mr. Shane look rather unhappy?” Natalie pointed in his direction with confusion.

Yulia changed the channel coolly. “How would I know? And why are you asking so much?”

“I’m just curious.” Natalie averted her gaze away uneasily.

Yulia looked at her. “Are you curious or are you worried?”

“Mom!” Natalie yelled out to her.

Yulia’s face remained unchanged. “You can’t whine your way out of this. What did I tell you yesterday? I told you to control your feelings right? And what did you do today? You brought him to the house and had him apply medication for you! Is your crush on him not deep enough as it is?”

“There’s no such thing, he came here by himself.” Natalie picked up her sketchbook and pencil. “Alright Mom, I won’t chat any longer. I have to go and pick up the kids.”

“Wait!” Yulia called out to her.

Natalie’s hand was on the bedroom door when she stopped and turned to look at Yulia. “Yes, Mom?”

“Speaking of kids, I suddenly realized that Connor looks too similar to Shane!” Yulia touched her chin in deep thought.

Natalie stood up straight. “What’s so strange about it? There are so many people in the world who look alike.”

“To this extent? I’ve sure never heard of it.” Yulia narrowed her eyes and stared at her back view. “Baby Girl, tell me honestly. Is Shane the father of the two kids?”

“How is that possible? I didn’t know Mr. Shane back then, so how could he be the children’s father? Mom, don’t speculate anymore. It doesn’t matter who their father is, as the most important thing is that they are my children and your grandchildren. Isn’t that right?” She advised her mother with her twinkling eyes.

Yulia sighed. “That’s true. Fine, I won’t ask anymore. I’ll go and pick up the kids together with you.

“Alright.” Natalie nodded in agreement and when her mother couldn’t see her, she heaved a huge sigh of relief.

That night, Natalie brought Yulia and the two kids to a French restaurant.
