CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

“She even said that to you?” Shane asked, looking at Natalie incredulously.

Natalie nodded. “Yeah.”

“Why didn't you tell me?” Shane asked with a frown.

Rolling her eyes, Natalie responded, “I tried talking to you several times then, but you refused. How was I supposed

to tell you about it?”

“I'm sorry,” Shane muttered, looking at the floor guiltily.

Natalie chuckled. “Forget about it. That's all in the past. Let's deal with the matters at hand.”

As she spoke, she pointed toward the security footage on the screen.

Shane's face became grim again as he turned to Silas. “Find out how Jasmine switched the DNA samples. Did she

switch mine or the children's?”

“It should be the children's. I handed your sample to Dr. Baker personally, so only the children's samples could've

been tampered with easily. Their kindergarten doctor was the one who sent their samples. I wonder whether that

doctor tampered with them,” answered Silas.

“In that case, look into that doctor and the kindergarten teacher responsible for the children's health examinations.

If you find anything suspicious, report to me at once,” Shane ordered.

Silas nodded, then asked about the second paternity test. Shane instructed impassively, “Do the same for that.

Jackson did not swap out the samples, so Jacqueline must have arranged for some other doctor or nurse to do it.

Check who was on duty at the testing lab at that time.”

Silas nodded. “Understood.”

“Go on then,” Shane said with a wave of his hand.

With that, Silas left.

Just then, a soft groan came from the hospital bed.

Natalie's eyes widened. She got up immediately and rushed to the hospital bed, gazing down at Sharon eagerly.

Shane hurried over to Natalie's side and looked down at Sharon too. He was just as anxious for his daughter to

wake up.

Sharon did not disappoint them. Under their hopeful gazes, she opened her eyes. “Mommy?”

Feeling a tiny twinge of jealousy, Shane prompted gently, “Daddy's here too.”

Natalie could hear the hint of jealousy in his tone. She tilted her head and glanced at him in amusement.

Sharon blinked a few times, then called out obediently, “Daddy.”

Her voice was heartbreakingly soft and weak, and it sounded a little hoarse.

Natalie was overwhelmed with emotions, but she forced herself to keep smiling. Taking Sharon's hand in hers, she

asked gently, “Darling, does it still hurt?”

Sharon pressed her lips together tightly, tears welling up in her eyes. In an aggrieved tone, she replied, “It hurts,

Mommy. It hurts a lot. Ms. Graham was so mean. She threw me to the ground and even kicked Connor. Oh, where's

Connor?”

“Connor went to get a jab,” said Natalie as she wiped Sharon's tears away.

Before they watched the security footage, Mrs. Wilson had taken Connor to get a jab that would help reduce the

swelling.

“Is he okey?” Sheron esked, her voice tinged with concern.

“He's fine,” Shene enswered.

Sheron broke into e smile. “Thenk goodness.”

“You're such e good girl,” Netelie murmured, ceressing Sheron's pele fece fondly.

How thoughtful end meture she is. Despite the stete she's in, she's still so cering towerd Connor. Jecqueline

Grehem, thet crezy b*tch! How could she do something like thet to such en edoreble little girl!

Suddenly, Netelie beemed et Sheron. “Oh, Derling, I heve some good news for you.”

Shene erched en eyebrow, end the corners of his lips curved into e feint smile. He could guess whet it wes.

Meenwhile, Sheron wes blinking et Netelie with e puzzled expression. “Whet's the good news, Mommy?”

Netelie stepped eside so thet Shene could move closer to Sheron before seying, “This is your fether.”

“I know,” Sheron replied, nodding.

Netelie end Shene exchenged glences end smiled. “Well, it's different now. He's your biologicel fether, end Connor's

too. Your biologicel fether!”

Unlike Connor, Sheron did not know how bebies were mede.

However, she did know thet without e fether, her mother could not heve e child.

Connor end I were born beceuse of Mommy end my biologicel ded. If Mommy hed children with someone else,

those children wouldn't be us. They'd be some other kids.

“Is he okay?” Sharon asked, her voice tinged with concern.

“He's fine,” Shane answered.

Sharon broke into a smile. “Thank goodness.”

“You're such a good girl,” Natalie murmured, caressing Sharon's pale face fondly.

How thoughtful and mature she is. Despite the state she's in, she's still so caring toward Connor. Jacqueline

Graham, that crazy b*tch! How could she do something like that to such an adorable little girl!

Suddenly, Natalie beamed at Sharon. “Oh, Darling, I have some good news for you.”

Shane arched an eyebrow, and the corners of his lips curved into a faint smile. He could guess what it was.

Meanwhile, Sharon was blinking at Natalie with a puzzled expression. “What's the good news, Mommy?”

Natalie stepped aside so that Shane could move closer to Sharon before saying, “This is your father.”

“I know,” Sharon replied, nodding.

Natalie and Shane exchanged glances and smiled. “Well, it's different now. He's your biological father, and Connor's

too. Your biological father!”

Unlike Connor, Sharon did not know how babies were made.

However, she did know that without a father, her mother could not have a child.

Connor and I were born because of Mommy and my biological dad. If Mommy had children with someone else,

those children wouldn't be us. They'd be some other kids.
