She lay in the middle of the bed in between the two children, who were hugging her arms, waiting for her to tell
them bedtime stories.
Even though Connor wasn't interested in stories for children, he was willing to listen to them only because he
enjoyed spending time with his parents.
As for Sharon, she loved the stories as well as being around her parents.
Natalie patted the kids on their backs gently, coaxing them to sleep, while telling them a fairy tale.
Before the woman finished the story, both children had already fallen asleep.
By right, Natalie's task was completed after the little ones slept, and it was time for her to return to her own
bedroom.
However, her heart melted when she saw the peaceful sleeping faces of her children. Besides, the kids were still
gripping tightly onto her arms. Under such circumstances, she was not willing and couldn't bear to leave them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs such, the woman closed her eyes, intending to sleep in the children's bedroom that night.
Ever since she got married to Shane, she had rarely slept with the kids.
Soon after, Natalie fell asleep with the pleasant scent of the children lingering around her.
Not long after she fell asleep, Shane finished his meeting and walked out of his study. When he returned to the
master bedroom, he opened the door while removing his necktie.
After the door was opened, the man froze for a moment, noticing that the room was pitch-black.
What's going on?
Why is there no one here?
He was used to having Natalie waiting for him in the room after he was done with his meetings. If the woman was
too tired and unable to stay up, she would leave the bedside light on for him before going to sleep.
However, at that moment, it was obvious to the man that there was no one in the room as it was completely dark.
Indeed, after Shane turned on the lights, he saw that the room was empty.
A crease appeared between the man's brows at once. “Nat?” he called out.
When he received no reply, Shane pursed his lips.
This is strange. It's already so late. Where could she be if she's not in the room?
Finally, the man thought of the place and headed there immediately.
The children's bedroom was not far from the master bedroom, and Shane guessed that the woman might be there.
After knocking on the door and receiving no response, the man proceeded to open the door.
When he opened the door, he saw that the lights in the room were still on. The children and their mother were lying
in the middle of the bed, sleeping soundly.
Shane felt an immense sense of relief after seeing Natalie. At the same time, he was feeling both amused and
angry.
He was a little worried when he did not see her after returning to their room, wondering where she had gone.
When he came out to look for her and saw that she was sleeping so soundly in the children's room, he was slightly
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmad. Geez, you should have told me where you are.
This won't do. Since she's so disobedient, I have to punish her.
A dangerous glint flashed across Shane's eyes as he tiptoed toward the bed.
When he reached the bed, he bent down slightly to lift the blanket before putting one hand under Natalie's neck
and the other under her knees, lifting her up.
Shane carried Natalie to the sofa and put her down. Then, he walked back to the bed again and pulled the blanket
up for the children before returning to the sofa to pick Natalie up, carrying her in his arms.
Natalie's head was leaning against Shane's chest as the man walked back to their room, swaying slightly along with
his movements. She was jolted awake by the cold sensation when his necktie brushed against her face.
“What's going on?” Natalie got a shock when she woke up and found herself moving, thinking that she was flying.
She only realized what was happening when she heard the man's deep voice ringing out from above her head.
“Stay still. You're going to fall if you keep moving,” Shane reminded in a slightly hoarse voice.
Natalie looked up at the man at once and said, “Shane, why did you...”
“I did not see you in the room after I finished working, so I went to the kids' room to look for you and saw you
sleeping there,” the man explained.
