Chapter 1140


    Natalie was trembling all over from a mixture of joy and relief.


    She felt like her world had been plunged into darkness when she heard about him going missing, and


    finding him sessfully seemed to fill her world with light again.


    She was hugging Shane so tightly as if he would disappear if she loosened her grip. Meanwhile, Ss


    and the others waited outside the house so as to not disturb their reunion.


    Natalie spent about half an hour in that room before finally calming down a little.


    “Mr. Campbell!” she called out to Ss while wiping her tears.


    “Yes, madam?” Ss entered the room and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shane. “Shall I have


    the doctors take a look at Mr. Thompson?”


    “Yeah, I want to know why he’s still unconscious after so many days,” Natalie replied.


    “Understood.” Ss nodded and quickly went outside to summon the doctors.


    Natalie then stepped aside and watched worriedly as the doctors examined Shane.


    Meanwhile, Lucy managed to find a house that she liked in town and signed the rental agreement for it.


    She then happily returned to the vige, only to see a huge group of men in ck suits standing


    outside her house.


    She slowed down her pace instinctively, and the smile on her face faded as she felt a strong sense of


    unease in her heart.


    Who are these people? Why do they have my house surrounded?


    One of the bodyguards spotted her and asked loudly, “Who are you?”


    Lucy clenched her fists and mustered the courage to snap back at him, “That’s my line! Who are you


    guys? What are you doing at my house?”


    “This is your house?” The bodyguard was shocked.


    Lucy nodded. “Yes, that’s right!”


    “Perfect! Madam wants to see you!” the bodyguard said as he grabbed her by the wrist and yanked her


    into the house.


    Madam has told us that this woman was hiding Mr. Thompson in her house. Since she’s clearly up to


    no good, I shouldn’t have to show her any respect!


    “Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!” Lucy yelled angrily as she wasn’t expecting the bodyguard to


    be so rough with her.

    However, the bodyguard ignored her and continued dragging her forcefully into the house.


    Natalie and Ss turned around when they heard themotion behind them. “What’s going on?”


    “Madam, the owner of this house has returned,” the bodyguard replied as he released his grip on Lucy.


    A look of shock shed past Lucy’s eyes as she nced at Natalie.


    What a beautiful woman! This is the first time I’ve seen a woman this pretty and elegant! Man, I look


    like an ugly ducklingpared to her!


    Lucy lowered her head and avoided looking Natalie in the eye as she would feel guilty if she did.


    Unsure of what Lucy was thinking, Natalie took a few steps forward and asked gently, “Are you Ms.


    Rivers?”


    Lucy found Natalie’s voice oddly familiar and instinctively tried to recall where she had heard it from.


    After about ten seconds, she finally remembered and looked up at Natalie in shock. “You… you’re the


    one fromst night…”


    Natalie nodded with a smile. “Yup, that was me! I’m sorry I called you thatte at night, but I was


    worried about my husband.”


    Hearing that made Lucy feel even more uneasy, and she tried her best to force the words out of her


    mouth. “Y… your husband? Who is he?”


    Don’t tell me it’s the guy inside the room?


    Natalie narrowed her eyes and replied, “The man inside the room is my husband.”


    Lucy couldn’t bring herself to ept the facts and went pale upon hearing that.


    “That’s impossible! There’s no way he’s your husband!” she protested instinctively.
