Chapter 1740 Trusting Stanley

“What? Crying?”

As expected, at the mention of Anders crying, Natalie hurriedly looked at Anders in

Shane's arms.

Looking at Anders' damp eyelashes, Natalie believed Stanley's words and fell silent.

So, it turns out Anders did cry!

Although she had only been with Anders for just over a week, she already understood

Anders well enough.

Anders was such a lazy child. He did not like to move around, nor did he like to cry or

shout. He only made a few grunts when he was wet, soiled, or hungry.

In short, Anders hardly cried at all. Even if he did, it was just a few small sobs, like thunder

without rain, never shedding a single tear.

Yet presently, Anders had actually shed tears, and his eyelashes were even dampened by

them. That bore witness to his recent heart-wrenching cries.

It made Natalie feel as if her heart was aching.

She immediately took Anders from Shane's arms and tenderly stroked her son's cheeks.

“Can someone tell me what happened? Why did Anders cry?”

Shane pursed his thin lips, not saying a word, but his eyes were cold and piercing as they

stared at Stanley.

Not only was Stanley unafraid, but he even flashed a smile at him.

Upon seeing that both men remained silent, Natalie instantly became anxious.

She looked at Stanley and said, “Stanley, tell me, I handed Anders to you before I went to

the restroom. Can you tell me how Anders ended up crying?”

“Did you hear that, Mr. Thompson? Natalie said it herself. Anders was given to me by her. I

didn't secretly take him.” Stanley didn't respond to her but just looked triumphantly at

Shane.

Shane snorted and looked at Natalie. “Why did you give the child to him? Have you

forgotten what he did to Connor? Aren't you afraid that he'll hurt Anders?”

“Stanley wouldn't do that, I trust him,” Natalie said, looking intently into Shane's eyes.

“I'm willing to give him a chance. Shane, can you trust me too? I would never joke around

or do something foolish with my own child.”

Watching Natalie behave like so, Shane's thin lips pursed slightly, but in the end, he didn't

say anything.

Natalie lowered her head to look at the little one in her arms.

The little one was sound asleep, and his tiny mouth moved from time to time, looking

incredibly adorable.

Yet, as she looked at the little one's still-wet eyelashes, her heart tightened again. “All

right, you still haven't answered me. What happened to make Anders cry earlier? Why

isn't anyone saying anything?” she asked once again.

Stanley touched his nose and then flashed a sly smile at Shane. “Natalie, let me tell you, it

was Mr. Thompson who made Anders cry.”

Shane's expression was extremely gloomy.

“What?” Natalie was taken aback. “Was it Shane?”

She quickly turned her head, looking at the man beside her. “Was it you who made Anders

cry?”

She stared at him in disbelief, her eyes wide.

Shane shifted his gaze away, feeling a bit guilty, and didn't respond.

Shane snorted and looked at Natalie. “Why did you give the child to him? Have you

forgotten what he did to Connor? Aren't you afraid that he'll hurt Anders?”

However, his demeanor made it quite clear that he was indeed the one who made the

child cry.

This nearly caused Natalie to stagger in astonishment.

She freed one hand and shakily pointed at Shane. “Why on earth did you make the child

cry?”

Anders was not prone to crying. For him to shed tears like that, Shane must have done

something unimaginable.

“Hey, Mr. Thompson, do enlighten us. Why did you manage to make Anders cry just when

everything seemed to be going smoothly?” Stanley playfully crossed his arms, a

mischievous half-smile gracing his face as he teased.

Stanley had endured Shane's persistent condescension and the frequent episodes of being

the target of jokes, as Shane constantly instructed him with an air of superiority. Bearing

the weight of such mockery, Stanley had nurtured a deep-rooted thirst for revenge.

Now, he had finally found the opportunity.

“What right do you have to speak here? Shut up!” Shane glared at Stanley, his anger

rising rapidly, and scolded him with a very unpleasant tone.

Stanley wasn't afraid of him at all. Even when he was yelled at, he didn't get angry.

Instead, he laughed even more gleefully.

He waited to see how Shane would respond to Natalie.

Natalie looked at Shane, who did not admit to it but instead started lecturing others. Her

expression darkened and she asked, “Shane, what are you doing? Are you going to speak

or not?”
