Natalie’s heart sank when she saw no changes in Shane’s expression. She chuckled bitterly on the inside.

Turns out, my confession didn’t elicit a trace of emotion from him at all. I guess it’s for the best. I can finally give up on him knowing that he feels nothing for me.

She retracted her bandaged foot and curled up on the seat. “Mr. Shane, I’m not sure when exactly I started having feelings for you either. But when I discovered it, it has already been too late. Did you know? I’ve wanted to suppress my feelings for you on several occasions.”

Shane’s thin lips twitched. He truly didn’t know.

“But it didn’t work. Each time I made up my mind to do so, you’d appear in front of me. Then I wouldn’t be able to forget you. It wasn’t until a few days ago when someone told me—”
