Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 823

“Then why are you disappointed?” asked Jacqueline in confusion.

Shane massaged his temples and answered, “I’m disappointed with what you did.”

Jacqueline gritted her teeth and demanded, “Was I wrong for doing that?”

“Weren’t you?” challenged Shane as he looked at her.

Jacqueline looked up and replied stubbornly, “There’s nothing wrong with what I did. I was simply pursuing the person I love and my own happiness.”

“But I don’t love you,” said Shane mercilessly.

Jacqueline suppressed the sting in her heart. Tears swirled in her reddened eyes as she replied, “I know, and it’s fine that you don’t love me, Shane. All that matters is that I love you. I fell for you when I was a kid, and I have dreamed of being with you ever since. I thought that I had a shot at that, but Natalie wrecked my dream when she showed up out of nowhere.”

At the mention of Natalie, Jacqueline’s face contorted with hatred.

Seeing that prompted Shane to ask, “You hate her, don’t you?”

“Yes, I hate her! I hate her with every fiber of my being,” roared Jacqueline. “I was the one who met you first, but you ended up with her. How can I be okay with that? How can I not hate her?”

“Is that why you targeted her and drugged me?” asked Shane in his usual cold tone.

With a tear-streaked face, Jacqueline said, “I am jealous of her. She is always all lovey-dovey with you, so how can I not target her? I thought that the two of you would get a divorce after your last argument, and I waited. Yet, all I got in return for my patience was the news that you two got back together. That was why I decided to stop waiting around. I needed to be proactive.”

Suddenly, Jacqueline laughed maniacally as she added, “Since I couldn’t break the two of you up, I could only try to keep you by my side by using underhanded methods. However, my plan failed because I was too kind.”

“Kind?” blurted Shane as he narrowed his eyes. It was obvious that he found her choice of words appalling. He certainly didn’t see any signs of kindness in her.

Jacqueline looked at him and replied, “Yes, I was too kind. I should’ve given you a date rape drug, but you were on Jackie’s medication, and I worried that you’d have an allergic reaction if I gave you that drug. That was why I used a sedative instead. If I hadn’t, we would’ve already slept together by the time Joyce showed up.”

“I would rather give Thompson Group up than marry you,” said Shane without hesitation.

Jacqueline was instantly lost. She refuted, “Give Thompson Group up? Stop lying, Shane. Your grandpa fought endlessly to give you that company, and you promised him that you would do right by the company. Why would…?”

“You’re right. I promised Grandpa that I would develop Thompson Group, but that was before I learned how he covered up for Sean. He helped the murderer who killed my parents! Now that I have learned the truth, what makes you think I will remain loyal to Thompson Group?” said Shane.

Jacqueline was flabbergasted.

That’s true. To Shane, his grandpa is an accomplice for covering up for Sean, who murdered his parents. Hence, why would he honor a promise he made to that man?

By then, Jacqueline’s face was as white as a sheet, and her entire body had turned cold.

If Shane doesn’t care about Thompson Group, what is the point in me doing all this?
