Chapter 737 Driven Mad By Jealousy
Everything that had happened at the Nichols residence was covered up subsequently.
Unaware of what had happened, Natalie went shopping for food at the supermarket after leaving Dream.
Ever since the press conference, she stopped wearing the hyper-realistic mask. Instead, she would go
out with just an ordinary face mask on. Despite not wearing any makeup and having the mask cover half
her face, she still couldn’t hide the natural charm she exuded.
When she was about to pay for her food, a hand blocked her from scanning her phone for payment.
“Hmm?”
Looking up curiously, she saw Shawn’s gentle smile.
“There’s no need to pay. Just take them.”
Natalie was stunned, for she didn’t expect to run into Shawn at the supermarket. Nonetheless, Natalie
was still glad to have bumped into a close friend.
“How could I do that? Unless you’re getting my bill for me?” Natalie asked with a smile. “However, given
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyour status, don’t these seem too little?”
Accepting her banter gracefully, Shawn explained, “This isn’t considered a treat since the supermarket
belongs to Watsons Group. In fact, the shares Grandpa transferred to you include those of this
supermarket coincidentally. Since you’re its major shareholder, it would be weird if you paid for anything.”
Natalie nodded in acknowledgment.
“Don’t tell me that you have never gone through the content of the share transfer agreement?” Shawn
asked in surprise.
“Mmm-hmm.” Natalie nodded in embarrassment. “I didn’t… look at it in detail.”
After Max’s health took a turn for the better, he transferred shares of Watsons Group to her. However, all
she did was accept them, and she never interfered in the operations of the company. She simply left it
aside as if it was merely gift money transferred into her account. Since it was an unexpected windfall,
she barely put any thought into it.
“You…” Shawn was at a loss for words. Considering the hefty amount of shares and dividends involved,
how could she not take a proper look?
“When Dream was in crisis, didn’t it cross your mind to use the shares of Watsons Group?”
“I did consider it but never did it.” Narrowing her gaze, she explained further, “In the end, it was moot. If
Dream couldn’t turn the situation around on its own merits, combining the two companies wouldn’t solve
the fundamental problem either. Furthermore, your grandfather gave me the shares with the hope that I
could be of assistance to you and not to see me use them to cushion the impact on Dream.”
Briefly stunned by her words, Shawn broke into a smile. That’s Natalie for you.
“You sure have bought a lot. Let me help you with them,” Shawn offered.
“Sure,” Natalie readily agreed since she saw him as a friend.
While walking side by side with Shawn, she received a call from Samuel.
When he heard the background noises of the supermarket, Samuel asked, “Have you gotten off work?”
“Mmm-hmm,” Natalie responded. “I was just at the supermarket when I suddenly felt like having a steak,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmso I bought some back to cook.”
“I see.”
After responding in acknowledgment, Samuel heard Shawn’s voice from the other side of the line.
“Natalie, there’s a new café around the corner. Why don’t you take a break, and we have some coffee?”
“Who’s beside you?”
Feeling his heart skip a beat, Samuel lowered his voice as he grew anxious.
After throwing a glance at Shawn, Natalie replied candidly, “It’s Shawn. I ran into him while shopping at a
supermarket owned by Watsons Group.”
Just as she spoke, Samuel’s voice rang out from the phone. “I… I’m coming right away. Just stay where
you are.”
“Sam—”
Before Natalie could finish, Samuel had already hung up.
“Who was on the line?” Shawn asked.
“Samuel,” Natalie replied with a smile.
“So, it’s him.” A mischievous glint flashed in Shawn’s eyes. “I still can’t imagine how someone like
Samuel can get jealous so easily!”
