Natalie waited with Shane outside the emergency room.

Shane paced up and down, often glancing impatiently at the red light above the entrance to the emergency room. He’d pressed his lips together so tightly that they were barely a thin line.

Natalie bit her lip and released Shane’s hand. She walked off to the side, keeping a distance from him. Then she said dispassionately, “Mr. Shane, our relationship caused such a tremendous shock to Ms. Graham that she fainted. Perhaps it would be better for us to break it off.”

“What are you saying?” Shane asked wildly. He whirled around, looking menacingly at her.

Is she saying that she wants to break up with me?

Natalie found herself flinching in the face of Shane’s fury.

She refused to concede, however. Gathering up her courage, Natalie said bravely, “I meant that we should break things off between us. You may not have romantic feelings towards Ms. Graham, but she does towards you. That’s why she can’t accept the idea of us dating.”
