Then, she closed her eyes, sunk back into the chair and slept.
When Shane heard her steady breathing beside him, he was momentarily stunned.
Has she fallen asleep?
He glanced at Natalie, who was hugging her arms and curling up into a ball on the chair. Massaging his temples, he pressed the in-flight call button.
An air stewardess walked over and asked, “Hello, sir. How may I help you?”
“Please bring me a blanket,” said Shane softly.
“Okay.” She replied with a gentle smile before bringing a blanket to him.
Shane unbuckled his seatbelt, stood up and walked over to Natalie. After lowering his head and gazing at her for a few seconds, he suddenly squatted down and reclined her chair.
Initially curled up into a ball, she gradually straightened her body as she lay flat on the chair.
Shane then unfolded the blanket and placed it over her. He gently tucked aside the stray strands of hair falling onto her face.
Staring at her fair and exquisite face, his lips twitched as his eyes gleamed.
A short moment later, he suddenly stretched his hand out to touch her face.
The feeling of her smooth skin against his palm jolted him back to his senses. After realizing what he had done, a grim expression crossed his face as he quickly withdrew his hand. He stood up and returned to his seat, his brows furrowed.
I must be crazy!
Not only did I do all these excessive things, but I even touched her face.
Clenching his fists, Shane stared at the clouds outside the window solemnly.
After a few hours, Natalie yawned and sat up, stretching her body. When she saw the blanket on her body fall onto the ground, she was stunned. It was then that she realized something and glanced over at Shane.
There was a laptop placed on the folding table. With his head lowered as he typed on the keyboard, he looked extremely serious.
Blushing, Natalie picked up the blanket and asked, “Mr. Shane, were you the one who gave me the blanket?”
Shane’s fingers instinctively paused for a brief moment. However, he regained his composure in the next second and replied indifferently, “No. The air stewardess did it.”
Natalie felt embarrassed upon hearing that.
I thought that it was him.
