Feel the Way You Feel, My Love

Chapter 269

When she saw who was calling, a complicated mix of emotions appeared on her face.

Shane managed to sneak a peek at the caller ID, too. His eyes narrowed dangerously when he realized who it was. All of a sudden, he had the urge to snatch Natalie’s phone away from her and reject the call on her behalf.

Before he could do that, however, Natalie had picked up the call. “Hey, Stanley. Are you awake now?”

Shane stared icily at her phone, trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Natalie sensed his curious gaze. However, she didn’t particularly care—he could listen in if he really wanted to.

“I just woke up, but I didn’t see you around. The caretaker told me you went back home.” On the other end of the line, Stanley was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale and pallid with illness.

Natalie admitted it. “I left yesterday night, and my plane only arrived this morning.”

Stanley coughed twice. His gaze darkening a little, he asked, “Did you leave because of me?”

Natalie pursed her lips. “Not entirely. I had to come back for an important meeting.”

“I’m sorry, Nat. I must have scared you, didn’t I? I was drunk then! I didn’t know what I was doing! I only realized how oafishly I must have behaved in front of you when I woke up. I’m really sorry, Nat. Please forgive me!” Stanley pleaded over the phone.
