Sharon's talent was finally showing. Her combat skills were quite exceptional, and even Connor was no match for
her. It was truly something to be proud of.
Of course, Shane was also extremely proud. Ever since he received a phone call from Sharon's coach praising her
talent that night, the smile on Shane's lips had not faltered.
After a meal, Shane hugged Natalie before heading for Thompson Group.
Natalie did not go with him. Instead, she stayed back to pack her luggage. She would be taking a flight to Baycoast
with the ticket she bought the previous night.
By the time she finished packing and reached the airport, it was already three in the afternoon.
Natalie checked in and boarded the plane. Before sunset, she landed at Baycoast.
Once she got off the plane, Natalie waltzed out from the VIP passage with four bodyguards surrounding her.
Immediately, she saw someone holding up a sign with her name written on it.
As she made her way through the airport, those who considered her a celebrity stopped her for an autograph while
many stared in awe. After a while, she managed to reach the person holding the sign. “I'm Natalie,” she told the

Upon seeing Natalie's gorgeous face, the person immediately knew she was the person he was sent to pick up. He
quickly lowered the sign and greeted Natalie courteously. “Nice to meet you, Mrs. Thompson. Welcome to Baycoast.
Mr. Shane had already contacted our hotel manager and reserved a room for you. This way, please. The car is
waiting outside.”
“Okay. Thank you.” Natalie nodded politely.
The moment she laid eyes on the person, she already knew he was sent by the hotel to pick her up. Before she
boarded the plane, Shane had contacted her and informed her that he had already gotten her a hotel room. He
also told her that someone would be picking her up at the airport.
Hence, when Natalie saw her name written in bold letters on a sign, she was completely unfazed.
Furthermore, the hotel that the guy mentioned was one of the many hotels under Thompson Group. In a way, she
was technically staying in a hotel Shane owned.
Although Thompson Group primarily dealt with a variety of luxury goods, the company also had side businesses
which included hotels, restaurants, tour agencies, airlines, and many more.
Simply put, anything aside from real estate had the involvement of Thompson Group.
If the company only relied on selling luxury goods, it would be impossible for Thompson Group to be in the top five
hundred companies in the world.
Before long, Natalie, accompanied by the bodyguards and the guy from the hotel, got into the car and made it to
the hotel without a hitch.
The hotel had reserved the presidential suite for her. After Natalie entered the suite, the first thing she did was
collapse onto the bed and stretch lazily. “Mmm... comfy!”
Even though she flew first class, hours of traveling still took a toll on her. At that moment, all Natalie wanted to do
was to freshen up and hit the sack. She decided to only visit Joyce the next day.
“Oh, right. I need to make a call!” All of a sudden, Natalie slapped her forehead as she recalled Shane's request. As
she was boarding the plane, Shane had asked her to give him a phone call once she had reached the hotel. It had
almost slipped her mind.
If she did not call anytime soon, she would be signing up for an earful from Shane.
Natalie quickly slipped out of bed and fished out her cell phone before dialing Shane's number.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeanwhile, Shane was in the conference room with the board of Thompson Group. When his cell phone suddenly
rang, the corners of his lips curled upward upon seeing the caller ID.
His smile did not go unnoticed by the board. Everyone inside the conference room gaped in surprise, exchanging
glances with each other. Some of them even sneaked out their cell phones under the table and started gossiping in
the group chat.
Did everyone see that? Mr. Thompson smiled.
Duh! Of course, we did. It was so obvious, who could've possibly missed it?
Say, who do you guys think it is?
You idiot. Who else? It has to be the mysterious Mrs. Thompson who rarely comes to the company. Who else do you
think can make Mr. Thompson grin that brightly other than her?
Not necessarily. At the end of the day, Mr. Thompson is a man. Men are all playboys. Who knows if that isn't his side
chick.
Hmm... I agree.
Nonsense! It's not like you people don't know how stunning Mrs. Thompson is. Have any of you met someone more
beautiful than her? With someone as gorgeous as Mrs. Thompson as his wife, who in their right minds would pay
attention to other ordinary women? If y'all don't believe me, then let's make a bet. Let's see if the person calling is
Mrs. Thompson or a side chick?
