Natalie was ready to call for the doctor if Sharon was still unwell.
“No, I don't feel sick anymore. I'm okay now, Mommy.” Sharon shook her head and spoke, patting herself on the
chest to emphasize the point.
Natalie carefully looked at her, trying to detect any visible signs of discomfort.
“Great! Glad you are well! You gave me a scare,” she said, relieved to see her daughter looking bright and alert.
Sharon felt bad for causing her mother to worry, so she sheepishly apologized, “I'm sorry, Mommy.”
Natalie touched her daughter's forehead to confirm she was not feeling feverish. When she was finally convinced
that nothing was wrong with her girl, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, “It's okay. Why did you not tell me over
the phone that you were not feeling well?”
The sensible little girl replied, “You were working, so you must be very tired. I don't want you to worry about me. I
have Daddy with me, so I am fine. Daddy was so worried when I fell sick. He stayed up the whole night and never
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtleft my side! Isn't that right, Daddy?”
Sharon looked to Shane to back her up.
Connor nodded and chimed in, “I can vouch for that! I was there too!”
“Don't worry. Sharon probably kicked her blanket away in the night and caught a cold. She should be fine in a
couple of days.” Shane gently patted Natalie on her hand to assure her.
Natalie smiled and expressed, “I know. She looks bright and alert. I'm sure she will be fine.”
“Yes.” Shane nodded in agreement.
Just then, the housekeeper walked in and reported, “Dinner is ready, madam.”
“Thank you. Go ahead and set the table—we will be there soon,” Natalie said.
The housekeeper acknowledged her words before turning around and heading to the dining room.
Natalie stood up and walked toward the kids, saying, “Let's go! Dinner time!”
She took the snacks from them, put the biscuits away on the side table then carried them from the couch. She
playfully hit their little bums after putting them down on the floor and chirped, “Time for dinner!”
“Yeah! Dinner!” The two kids held each other's hands and happily ran into the dining room.
Natalie stood there watching them as they skipped and jumped joyfully. “I wonder if Anders will ever be able to run
around like Sharon and Connor and be as lively as them...” She spoke with mixed emotions.
Shane walked over, stood by her side, and watched the kids as they ran into the dining room. He assured her by
saying, “I am sure he will. We can afford to give him the best medical care, so he will make it. Even if he does not
get to be as strong as other children, I'm confident he will not be sickly and can run around like the twins. The worst
possibility is that he will not be running as fast as them.”
His words comforted Natalie.
“All right! Let's go! It's time for dinner!” He put his hand on her waist and gave her a gentle hug.
“Yeah.” Natalie nodded, and the two of them followed the kids into the dining room.
It was almost midnight when they finished their dinner.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe kids were not used to staying up late, so they were already dozing off sleepily at the dining table.
Natalie couldn't help but smile at the adorable sight. Carrying a child each in their arms, Shane and her brought
them back to their bedroom and tucked them in.
After making sure the kids were sleeping soundly, they left the kids' room and went back to their own room. Natalie
was feeling tired too. She let out a sleepy yawn as Shane closed the door behind them.
Suddenly, a pair of arms came from behind her and held her tightly. She instinctively tensed up but immediately
realized it was Shane. She smiled, relaxed in his arms, and asked, “What is it?”
He bent down and started nibbling on her earlobe. “You spent the whole evening with the kids. It's my turn now,
right?” he whispered in her ear.
Natalie's eyes popped wide open, and she was fully awake. “Don't tell me you want...”
Shane chuckled softly, confirming her suspicion.
Natalie hurriedly shook her head and tried to pry his hands off her waist, protesting, “No, no! Aren't you tired after
such a long flight?”
“I had a good rest during the flight. I'm not tired.” Shane's lips started moving slowly from her ear to her neck.
Cringing a little from the ticklish sensation, Natalie whined, “But I am tired.”
“You just relax and stay still. I will do the hard work.” Shane looked her in the eyes as he spoke.
