Yet, the look of worry filled her eyes.
Shane knew that she was saying that to make him prioritize his safety.
Despite that, he was still angry.
He then turned the woman around to let her sprawl on his thigh. Then, he smacked her
bottom and uttered in a fake angry tone, “There's no way I'm going to let you marry
another man and let another man become the father to my children. Dream on!”
Natalie never imagined that she would be spanked at her age. She blushed deeply as a
wave of embarrassment washed over her.
However, she was really moved by his words. “In that case, you have to stop me from
dreaming—you have to come back. Otherwise, I'll do that and make you fume even when
you're six feet under!”
“You won't get the chance to do that.” With that said, Shane smacked her bottom again.
Natalie huffed. “Stop hitting me. I want to get up.”
Sure enough, Shane stopped and helped her up. He then hugged her and returned to his

“Okay,” Natalie muttered, nodding as she leaned into his arms.
After that, she lifted her head slightly to stare at his defined jawline and asked, “When are
you going to fight with Sean, and how are you going to do that?”
“I don't know,” Shane confessed. “Sean didn't write the date on the letter. He only said
that we're going to duel each other one day.”
Natalie furrowed her brows. “There isn't a date? Doesn't that mean we don't know when
it'll be? Won't we have to stay worried forever if that's the case?”
Shane hummed in response. “Sean did this on purpose. He wants me to live in constant
fear. However, he's wrong about something. Even if I don't know when it'll be, I won't live
in fear because of that. I'll wait for him to die for good.”
“You will,” Natalie reassured, holding his hand.
Shane chuckled quietly. “Of course, but my instincts tell me that the duel will be soon.”
Natalie immediately grasped his intention and straightened up. “That's why you sent the
two kids away? Is that so that Sean won't have the chance to use the kids against you?”
“That's correct.” Shane nodded. “Sean will do everything to achieve his goals, including
taking our kids.”
And you too, were the words that he did not say out loud.
After an entire day of contemplation, he decided to tell her about his imminent duel with
Sean.
However, he did not intend to tell her about the possibility of Sean using her to threaten
him. It would indeed affect her performance in the upcoming competition, but he was
more worried that she might risk her safety to make Sean's plan fail.
That was why he was going to keep it a secret from her.
Shane knew Natalie well. If she were to find out that Sean was going to use her to
threaten him and even try to kill him by using her, it was highly likely that she would kill
herself so that he could live.
He would never let that happen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTherefore, after much rumination, he decided to leave that matter out and only tell her
about the letter.
Yet, it seemed like even the letter alone was enough to terrorize her.
At that point, Shane was hit by a pang of regret. He wished he had not told her about the
letter.
I should've kept that a secret from her too.
Still, Shane knew that he could not keep it under wraps forever. She would find out about
it eventually, and if she did so herself, she would be upset with him for not sharing the
matter with her.
“The kids...” Natalie mumbled, the colors draining from her face upon hearing how Sean
might use the children against Shane.
Indeed, it sounded like something Sean was capable of.
After all, he was a despicable man with no bottom line.
“Darling...”
