Natalie stopped asking.
Whatever, it’s fine to name him later.
An official name will have to wait till he’s recovered.
The couple continued to chat for almost two hours. Then a person in charge came to visit Shane for business.
Knowing they have something to discuss, Natalie headed over to Mrs. Wilson’s ward for company.
That afternoon, Thompson Group had released an official statement. Shane, Natalie, and all the children had returned from overseas.
And so, news about Shane’s disappearance was buried.
After all, Shane had already been found and woken up. Regardless of others finding out that he did indeed go missing at one point in time, that information would be pointless to them.
Because they had lost the chance to lay their lay on Thompson Group.
Meanwhile, Lucy wrung her hands when she saw the news about Shane’s family in her living room.
The chairman of the Thompson Group. What a distinguished status.
Never once have I thought in my life that one day I would be so close to such an important person and living with him under the same roof.
Unfortunately, I’m about to lose everything.
It’s all because of that woman. The woman with ethereal beauty had taken him away from me.
I could have lived a life of luxury, but-
A middle-aged man’s voice snapped her out of her thoughts. “Lucy, there’s a good-looking guy named Thompson outside looking for you. Is he your friend?”
A good-looking guy named Thompson?
Shane!
His name immediately popped into her mind. The sadness on her face had disappeared, replaced with joy.
That’s right. I saw the news online that Shane had returned. But he has always been in the country, so it must mean something else. Most probably, he’s awake.
Does Shane know I’m his savior? Has he come to see me once he’s awake?
Is he here to thank me personally then bring me with him?
Lucy got more excited as her thoughts exaggerated further. She rushed out of her room toward the entrance without a reply to her father.
She peered outside and saw a tall man standing by the door.
The man had his back to her. He was good-looking with a suit on that became him. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Lucy’s heart started to pound. She wrung her hands together and shyly greeted, “Shane.”
He won’t mind if I call him Shane, right?
I’m his savior after all.
Television always shows wealthy people possess excellent self-restraint, so I’m sure he won’t mind.
The man snickered then slowly turned to face her. “Sorry, I’m not Shane.”
He looked at Lucy teasingly.
Lucy’s expression froze. Her shyness was gone, and her heartbeat had slowed to the usual rhythm. A flash of disappointment crossed her eyes.
He’s not Shane.
“Who are you then? Why are you looking for me? And you even called yourself a Thompson.” Lucy glared at him, furious at being lied to.
Sean crossed his arms in defense. “I didn’t lie to you. My family name is Thompson. I’m Sean.”
“Sean?” Lucy gasped in surprise.
Shane and Sean. Their names are similar.
“What is your relationship with Shane?” Her anger vanished and in its place was curiosity.
A wry look crossed Sean’s face at hearing the way she addressed Shane.
Shane?
She’s calling him Shane just because she saved him? How shameless.
Despite his jeering thoughts, Sean didn’t show it on his face. Instead, he replied to her with a smile. “I’m his cousin.”
“Cousin.” The disappointment Lucy had disappeared completely. Instead, a surge of happiness rose within her. “Is there anything I can help you with?” she asked cheerfully.
Have Shane asked him to come on his behalf?
Lucy’s inner thoughts were reflected on her face.
Sean taunted her internally yet maintained his smile. “The reason I’m looking for you is to make a deal with you.”
“A deal?” Lucy was surprised.
So Shane didn’t ask him to come.
