CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 90

At that thought, Natalie smiled bitterly. She rested her head on one side of the bed and fell asleep.

However, she was woken up by a video-call at night.

Sharon pouted and asked, “When are you coming home, Mommy?”

Natalie gazed affectionately at her daughter. “I might take a while. Something happened here, so I can’t return for the time being. Do you miss me?”

“Yeah, I do.” Sharon nodded.

Suddenly, Connor snatched the phone away with a solemn look on his face. “Mommy, what happened?”

Glancing at Shane, who was lying on the hospital bed, Natalie’s gaze flitted shiftily. “It’s something about work. You children shouldn’t ask too many questions.”

She promised Silas that she would not tell anyone that Shane was injured.

“Okay, I won’t ask anymore.” Connor shrugged before adding, “Oh, right. When I was going home from school today, an old man stopped Sharon and I.”

“An old man?” Natalie frowned as her expression became serious. “How does he look like?”

Sharon raised her hand quickly. “I know! He looks really fierce and has a mole here.”

She pointed at her chin.

A face instantly surfaced in Natalie’s mind.

Harrison, my Dad!

Natalie tightened her grip on the phone while she pursed her lips.

“What’s wrong, Mommy?” Noticing that she was acting strangely, Connor stared at her and asked worriedly.

Natalie took a deep breath and quickly calmed herself down. “I’m fine, darling. Did that old man do anything to you?”

Both Connor and Sharon shook their heads simultaneously.

“No. He just looked at us for a while and left without even talking to us,” replied Connor.

Although Natalie felt relieved, she still remained alert.

It was impossible that Harrison only wanted to meet his grandchildren. If he felt nothing for Natalie, he would not harbor any love for her children too.

Hence, regardless of what Harrison’s motive was, the children must not attend that kindergarten anymore.

As she thought about it, Natalie stared at her children seriously. “My darlings, don’t go to the kindergarten tomorrow. I’ll call your teacher later to excuse both of you. After I come back, I’ll transfer you to another school.”

“Why, Mommy?” Sharon blinked in bewilderment.

Connor, who could vaguely guess the reason, stroked his chin and asked, “Is it because of that old man? Who is he?”

“You don’t need to bother about that yet. Just listen to my instructions.” Natalie showed no intention of answering his question.

When Connor noticed the solemn expression on her face, he stopped asking. He nodded and assured, “I understand, Mommy.” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“Good boy!” praised Natalie.

They ended the video-call soon after.

Natalie then called the kindergarten teacher and excused the two kids from school the next day.

Before she could place her phone down, she heard Shane’s deep voice. “Is someone trying to harm Connor and Sharon?”

“You’re awake, Mr. Shane.” Natalie quickly glanced at him. He had already woken up a long time ago and even overheard her conversation on the phone.

Shane lifted his chin slightly. “I just woke up.”

“Is it because of me?” Natalie pointed at her phone.

After all, she did not leave the room when she was having the video-call.

Shane shook his head. “No, I woke up on my own. You still haven’t answered my question.”

Natalie pursed her lips. “I don’t know if he’s planning to harm Sharon and Connor. However, since he suddenly appeared in front of them, he’s definitely up to no good.”

“Your solution is to transfer the children to another school?” Shane continued staring at her.

“Yeah,” mumbled Natalie.

Narrowing his eyes, Shane stated, “You’re not solving the root cause at all. Tell Sean about your children. With his protection, they’ll definitely be safe.”

When Natalie heard that, she was dumbfounded. “Why should I tell Mr. Sean about
