CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1511

Although that could be true, it was certainly not the main reason.

Even if Stanley knew that the Rivers family had saved his life, it would be hard for him to accept it rationally. Otherwise, he would not have harbored such a deep hatred for the family for so long.

It appeared that the real reason Stanley had kept the Rivers family alive was that he was in love with Joyce.

But when did that happen?

Previously, Stanley had claimed that Natalie was the woman he loved. He had even gone crazy and stabbed Shane because of the woman.

“Shane, what are you thinking about?” Jackson asked out of curiosity when he noticed a myriad of emotions flashing across Shane's face.

Shane shook his head and replied, “Nothing. I'm just thinking how funny it is for Stanley to be hating and loving Joyce at the same time.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“It's really funny, isn't it? But it's actually quite sad too.” Jackson sighed before continuing, “Actually, Stanley reminds me of myself in the past.”

“What do you mean?” Shane asked, fixing his gaze on his friend.

Jackson adjusted his glasses and replied, feeling somewhat emotional, “I did not have the courage to confess to Jacqueline despite loving her for such a long time, causing her to be obsessed with you.

That also played a part in her losing her mind and creating all those troubles subsequently. However, Stanley's situation is slightly different from mine. Besides not having the courage to face the real reason for his parents' deaths, he also does not know who he truly loves. If this continues, he would turn out like me, losing the love of his life and ending up with nothing.”

“That's what he deserves,” Shane replied placidly. “As an adult, he should be sensible enough and

have the maturity to accept reality. How can he not even know who he loves? It's not surprising for a person like him to lose everything he has.”

After saying that, the man walked into the elevator.

Jackson did not follow but merely stood at the spot and watched Shane leave. He could not help but sigh silently.

Shane is right. It's natural for an adult who doesn't have the courage or know what they want to end up losing everything. There's nothing worth pitying about.

That applied to both Stanley and him.

Jackson could not stop wondering if the current situation between him and Jacqueline would be any different if he was a bit braver back then.

That way, even though Jacqueline had killed someone and was sentenced to death, both of them would at least have a chance to be together and love each other. They would not have to live in pain.

Well, maybe that's what they call karma!

Jackson looked up and stared blankly at the ceiling above him. Unknowingly, the warm and cheerful look on his boyish face was gone, and left with nothing but sorrow and bitterness.

Meanwhile, shortly after Shane returned to his car, Silas walked over with Sally.

“Mr. Thompson, can Sal get into the car? Her manager has some matters to attend to and is unable to

come. Her assistant is currently stuck in a traffic jam and would take a long time to arrive, so I was thinking of sending her home later.” Silas looked at the man at the back of the car and asked.

Putting her hands together in a pleading gesture, Sally pleaded, “Mr. Thompson, please help me. Don't worry. I will make sure that your schedule isn't disrupted. Silas will send me home after he sends you to your destination.”

“Get in,” Shane grunted in assent.

Silas and Sally exchanged glances and grinned before thanking Shane simultaneously.

Shane merely closed his eyes and kept quiet.

Silas immediately opened the car door for Sally and helped her get into the front passenger seat.

After the woman buckled her seat belt, Silas returned to the driver's seat and started the engine.

Perhaps due to Shane's presence in the car, the couple, who hardly got to meet, found it difficult to speak even though they had so much to talk to each other about. As such, they could only try to convey their longing for each other through their eyes.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at Shane's destination.

After getting out of the car, Shane glanced at his watch before saying to Silas, “Send her home first, and pick me up in two hours.”
