Lina waved a hand in disagreement. “Ah, that's impossible! I understand Ashlyn all too
well. She's a madwoman who never admits defeat or knows what it means to back down.
Such a rival is incredibly scary. Her mental strength is immensely strong, so she'd never
be affected by my words, much less be infuriated. She would only do her best to catch up
with me to prove she isn't inferior to me.”
Her confident expression put Natalie at ease. “Since you've said as much, I'll believe you.”
Lina linked arms with her. “This is more like it. Come on, let's go, Nat! Hurry up! I'm
desperate to see Anders.”
When Natalie glimpsed the look of excitement and anticipation on her face, she shook her
head in hilarity. Then, she did as Lina requested, quickening her pace.
In truth, she also wanted to see Anders earlier.
She had only been with Anders for about an hour. That brief time was doubtlessly
insufficient for her to interact with her son.
Thus, she wanted to hold her son more.
Shortly after, the two of them arrived at the door to the lounge.
Just as Natalie lifted her hand to knock, the door swung open.

Standing in the doorway, Shane had his eyes pinned on her. “You're done with the
competition?” he asked, his voice as gentle as ever.
“Yeah,” she answered with a nod.
Tilting his body to make way for them, he urged, “Come in.”
As Natalie walked through the door, Shane followed behind her, whereas Lina took up the
rear.
After getting into the lounge and seeing no signs of Anders and the twins, Natalie could
not help asking, “Where are the kids?”
“Yeah, Mr. Thompson. Where's Anders?” Lina gazed at Shane hopefully, both her hands
clenched tightly in anticipation.
Pouring Natalie a glass of water, Shane replied, “Connor and Sharon are asleep. They
haven't woken up yet. As for Anders, he's nursing in the room.”
He pointed to the room Natalie had entered to check on Anders at noon.
Understanding dawned on Natalie, and she nodded. “I see. I was just wondering why the
two of them didn't come out to greet me.”
Under normal circumstances, Sharon and Connor would have been the first to appear in
front of her ahead of Shane.
“They'd been watching your competition for the entire afternoon. Initially, they wanted to
wait for you to come back. But they're young and have limited energy, so they fell asleep
in the end.” At that point, the corners of Shane's mouth lifted, forming a distinct smile on
his face.
Chortling, Natalie shook her head. “Oh, well.”
“That's enough, Nat. Don't talk about Sharon and Connor first. Hurry up and take me to
see Anders!” Lina urged impatiently, tugging at Natalie's arm.
Mirth bubbled within Natalie. “Okay, okay, let's go. I'll take you there.”
As she spoke, she turned to Shane. “Darling, I'm going with Lina to check on Anders. Are
you coming?”
“I'll wait here,” Shane replied with a slight lift of his chin after sitting down.
Why would I go in when I'm a man? To see Anders nurse? It'd be downright awkward! It'd
be fine if Natalie were the person nursing him, and I could naturally watch. But right now,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmit's another woman doing so. Therefore, I should naturally make myself scarce.
Natalie was also aware that it was inappropriate for the man to go into the room right
then. For that reason, she did not try persuading him otherwise. With a bob of her head in
acknowledgment, she entered the room where Anders was nursing alongside Lina.
When she entered the room, the wet nurse had just finished nursing Anders and was
straightening her shirt.
At the sight of them both, the wet nurse immediately stood up and greeted, “Madam, Ms.
Cohen.”
Natalie had seen her before and knew Shane had Silas hire her when Anders was in the
incubator at the hospital.
Despite being in the incubator, Anders still needed to drink milk. Hence, the woman had
been his wet nurse for two to three months and would continue nursing him until he was
weaned.
“Nice to meet you again, Mdm. Zorus.” Natalie flashed the wet nurse, Zaylee Zorus, a
smile. Just when she was to inquire about Anders, she saw Lina rush past her without
warning. With a silly grin, Lina trotted over to the crib while rubbing her hands. As she did
so, she repeated, “Your godmother is here, Anders!”
At that sight, Natalie shook her head in amusement.
