After Natalie had finished speaking, she removed her hand from Lina's shoulder and

turned to Zaylee. “Please carry Anders, Mdm. Zorus. We're heading back now.”

“Sure, Madam,” Zaylee replied with a nod. She then bent down and carefully carried

Anders out of the crib.

When Anders was lifted from his bed, his lips puckered slightly. He was so adorable that he

could melt one's heart.

Pressing her hands against her chest, Lina squealed in a low voice, “Ah! Did you see that,

Nat? How cute! Anders is simply adorable!”

Natalie was tickled pink by her obsession with Anders. “Of course, I saw that. He's my son,

after all.”

“No, I can't help it! How about letting me hold Anders, Nat? Won't you please allow me to

carry him back to the villa?”

While speaking, Lina reached out to take Anders.

That time around, however, Natalie stopped her from doing so. “No way. You can carry him

under normal circumstances, but not all the way back to the villa. When it's the latter, it's

just for a short time, and you won't feel tired. But if you were to cradle him for a long time,

you'd definitely be exhausted. Besides, you've got no experience in holding a baby. Once

you feel tired, you'll subconsciously adjust your posture for greater comfort. Unfortunately,

that posture might not necessarily be suitable for a baby whose bones are still developing.

Do you understand, Lina?”

“Madam is right. It's best that you carry Anders when you're sitting down, Ms. Cohen.”

Zaylee agreed with Natalie.

Realizing she might behave as Natalie had mentioned, Lina did not insist on carrying

Anders. She sighed before inclining her head in acquiescence. “All right, then. For Anders'

sake, I'll only hold him when we're back at the villa.”

Natalie flashed her a smile. “This is more like it. Okay, let's go out. Shane is probably

anxious after waiting for such a long time.”

After saying that, she helped Zaylee to lift Anders from the crib and stepped out of the

room into the lounge.

Shane was sitting on the couch, engaged in a call. When he saw the three women coming

out of the room, he dipped his head a fraction in acknowledgment and continued saying

something or other to the person on the other end of the line.

Without disrupting him, Natalie walked over and sat down beside him. Then, she reached

out her arms and took Anders from Zaylee.

After the competition in the afternoon, she had not even carried him despite being his

mother. Instead, Lina hogged the baby.

Only then did she have the opportunity to cradle her youngest son.

However, no sooner had she taken Anders from Zaylee than she sensed a scorching gaze

on her. She had not even managed to adjust her posture to carry the baby properly.

The instant she lifted her head, she was greeted by the sight of Lina gawking at Anders.

Unbidden, the corners of her mouth twitched. “Lina, you...”

Since she had been discovered, Lina did not bother feigning ignorance. After letting out a

cough, she rubbed her hands while chuckling away. “Look, Nat, Mr. Thompson is on the

phone right now. The other two kids aren't here either, probably still asleep. Therefore,

there's definitely some time to spare before we leave. Why don't you let me hold Anders

for now?”

Subsequently, she reached out to take Anders.

Alas, Natalie leaned over to Shane with Anders in her arms and dodged Lina's hands.

“No way,” she uttered, turning her down mercilessly.

Lina's eyes widened in shock. “Why?”

At that question, Natalie's lips twitched once more. “Why else? Anders is my son. You'd

been carrying him the entire evening, whereas I, his biological mother, hadn't even gotten

to do so. I'm not going to let you hog him now. Next time, maybe.”

“Huh?” Immediately, Lina hung her head in dejection, and her eyes on Natalie brimmed

with resentment.

Turning away, Natalie pretended as though she was ignorant of it all. She tidied the

blanket around Anders with a tender maternal smile on her face.

At the sight of her acting oblivious, Lina was forced to resign herself to the fact that she

would not be able to steal Anders from Natalie. A sigh escaped her lips.

At that precise moment, Natalie swiveled her eyes around. Then, she abruptly snapped

her head over and beamed at Lina. “How about this, Lina? If you go and wake Connor and

Sharon, I'll allow you to carry Anders for a while when he wakes up.”

The moment Lina heard her suggestion, her eyes lit up. Patting her chest, she vowed,

“Don't worry, Nat. I'll go and wake Connor and Sharon right away! Remember what you

promised me because I'll hold you to your word. You must let me carry Anders when he

wakes up later.”
