Shane pulled her along towards the elevator without saying a word.

When he saw a few other people in the elevator, he shot them a threatening glare and commanded, “Get out.”

The people exchanged timid looks and moved out of the elevator without further ado.

Shane dragged Natalie in as the people dispersed. He thrust her into the elevator and pressed the close button on the panel.

The door closed silently and Shane turned towards her furiously, closing in on her in the small space. “Stanley is not who you imagine him to be. I’ve told you this a long time ago, but you chose not to listen to me!”

Natalie lowered her head quietly. She could not justify herself. But she was not ready for another confrontational conversation.
