Just as Connor had said, Natalie blushed in embarrassment and tried to push Shane away.
However, Shane did not give her the chance to do so. Instead, he nipped at her earlobe and murmured, “Since the
children are pretending not to have seen anything, we should respect their wishes by pretending that we haven't
realized that they're awake and continue kissing.”
Then he pressed his lips against hers once again.
Natalie was both amused and infuriated by his words.
Respect their wishes? What's that supposed to mean? It's clear that he's just addicted to kissing and doesn't want to
let go of me. I can't believe he'd use the children as an excuse. How shameless!
Shane continued kissing her for quite some time and only let her go when she started feeling dizzy and out of
breath.
Natalie pushed him away at once and climbed off his lap. She sat next to him and took out her phone to look at
herself in the front camera.

and it's all your fault. How am I supposed to go out like this? Lina and the others are definitely going to make fun of
me.”
“So, let them,” Shane answered nonchalantly with a shrug of his shoulders.
“Well, of course, you'd say that. They wouldn't dare to make fun of you.” Natalie put down her cell phone huffily.
Shane caressed her bump gently as if he did not hear a word she said.
Suddenly, he felt a kick, and he froze in surprise.
Natalie smirked. “See! Even the baby agrees with me. That's why the baby kicked you.”
After a momentary daze, Shane gazed lovingly at his hand that had just felt the baby's kick. “This little rascal is
getting stronger.”
“All right, I'm leaving now. The show is about to start, so I have to go and take a look. You stay here and watch the
kids. Call me once the test results are out, okay?” Natalie stood up and smoothed her hair that Shane's large hands
had mussed up.
“Go on then. I got it,” Shane replied.
Natalie nodded and left the lounge.
When she arrived at the runway, she went to the seating area set aside for the designers and sat next to Lina. She
looked around and asked, “Where are Annette and Lacey?”
“They said they're going to check on their models backstage, but I think they just want to keep an eye on Sal,” Lina
answered, rolling her eyes.
Natalie sneered. “They're really so worried. Oh, did anything happen when they saw that Sal's dress and jewelry
were absolutely fine?”
Lina contemplated for a moment before shaking her head. “Nope.”
“Hmm, that means they didn't spoil the dress and jewelry but put something in them instead,” Natalie mused as she
stroked her chin thoughtfully.
Lina grunted in acknowledgment. “That's what I think too. Otherwise, they would've reacted when they saw Sal
wearing them.”

Lina looked at her and asked, “Have we gotten the test results already?”
“No. I told Shane to call me once the results are out,” Natalie responded.
Lina turned back toward the runway. “Then let's not bother about that for now and focus on the show. It's almost
Sal's turn. Did you know that Mr. Campbell rushed over just now to ask why Sal hadn't appeared yet? His impatient
expression was so funny!”
As she recounted what happened, she could not help letting out a chuckle.
Natalie also laughed. “Well, it's his first relationship in thirty years. You can't blame him for being a little
enthusiastic.”
“You're right,” Lina replied, grinning from ear to ear.
Soon, the music blaring from the stage changed, and the lights dimmed. All that was left was a single spotlight
shining down on the runway.
A silhouette emerged from the shadows and stood at the top of the illuminated runway, striking an elegant pose.
The gazes of the audience and critics fell upon the figure.
Then, the figure began to sashay down the runway in time with the music, her arms swinging in a relaxed manner
as she made her way to the end of the runway.
The long dress swished with every step she took, mesmerizing everyone.
