Silas and Sally beamed brightly when they heard that.
“Thanks, Mr. Thompson.” Silas was beyond grateful.
By right, Silas, being a personal assistant, should not be away from Shane for too long as he might need him
anytime.
However, not only had his boss given him permission to send his girlfriend home, but he had also asked to be picked
up two hours later.
Silas knew that Shane was letting him spend time with his girlfriend intentionally.
Understanding Shane's intentions, Sally said with a broad smile, “Don't worry, Mr. Thompson. I will definitely put in a
good word for you in front of Nat and ask her to give you more benefits. You know what I mean.”
After saying that, the woman winked at Shane while grinning cheekily.
“You...” Shane raised his brows.
“I'm so sorry, Mr. Thompson. She's just spouting nonsense. She didn't mean it. Please don't take it to heart.” Silas

Shane cleared his throat and said, “No. She's right. I like that. I'll leave it to you then.”
When Sally heard that, her eyes lit up. She patted her chest and replied, “Don't worry, Mr. Thompson. I got this.”
“All right.” Shane nodded and continued, “Anyway, you guys should get going. I'll head in first.”
After saying that, the man turned around and entered the hotel lobby.
Silas looked at the woman who was in the passenger seat next to him and said helplessly, “Sal, stop your nonsense.
Don't say such things to Mr. Thompson again.”
“Why?” Sally was confused.
Silas held his forehead in frustration and replied, “If we offend Mr. Thompson, he will definitely make life difficult for
us.”
Sally waved a dismissive hand and said, “Ah! Don't worry. Mr. Thompson won't be offended. He liked it. Didn't you
see how shiny his eyes were when I mentioned Nat's name just now? Besides, do you know why I'm so sure that he
won't get angry?”
“Why?” It was Silas' turn to feel confused.
Something did not seem right about the man. Given that he was Shane's assistant, he should be the one who knew
Shane well.
However, it appeared as if his girlfriend was the person who knew his boss better.
Sally cupped her hand over her mouth and snickered before replying, “It's because of Nat, of course. When I asked
Nat about her sex life with Mr. Thompson previously, she told me that she wasn't able to satisfy him sometimes
because she was too self-conscious. That was why I told him that l will put in a good word for him in front of Nat and
get him some benefits. There's no way he would be angry over that. It was a calculated move. What do you think,
Darling? Am I very smart?”
The woman had a smug expression on her face and was feeling very pleased with herself.
Meanwhile, Silas was rendered speechless. “Well, what can I say? Forget it. I shall let it pass this time, but please
just keep quiet next time. Sit tight. I'm going to start driving now.”
“Okay.” Sally nodded and sat up straight.

In the evening, Shane returned to Thompson villa after picking his two kids up. When he got home, he called Natalie
and told her that Stanley had visited Justin earlier that day.
Natalie sighed upon hearing that and replied, “I have already guessed it. I knew that he would look for Justin.”
“But there's no use even if he finds Justin. That bloke doesn't know anything,” Shane replied.
Natalie nodded. “It's better to keep things from Stanley anyway.”
“By the way, there's something else that I want to tell you.” Shane picked up his mug from the table and took a sip
of his coffee.
Natalie put down her pen and blinked before asking, “What is it?”
“Jackson thinks that Stanley is in love with Joyce.”
“What?” Natalie exclaimed in surprise. “Stanley likes Joyce?”
“Yup.” Shane nodded before saying, “What Jackson said made a lot of sense. I think that might be the case.”
Natalie gaped in shock and only snapped back to her senses after a while. After composing herself, she said, “Are
you kidding me? How is it possible that Stanley is in love with Joyce?”
