At that point, Natalie was sure that he was furious over something she had done.
Frowning, she deliberated on what could be a cause for it. Yet, she still did not have a clue. Rubbing her temples,
she ranted, “Still, tell me about it! At least I can get to understand why I won't be able to change it. Besides, if I
can't do anything to reverse it, I can compensate you in another way!”
“You can't make up for it no matter what you do or how hard you try,” Shane spat before pushing past her to open
their bedroom door.
He almost shoved Natalie onto the ground in the process, and she staggered aside before managing to regain her
balance. Her mouth hung open as she stared at him in disbelief.
Did he just push me?
Even so, he used so much force.
From the door, Shane caught a glimpse of her startled expression, and his eyes flickered. Quickly lowering his gaze,
he turned away to hide how apologetic he felt.
The moment he pushed past her, he already felt a sense of regret.

Natalie did not take long to recover from her shock. Ignoring what happened seconds ago, she seethed, “Why can't
I make up for it? Why can't you tell me?”
“Enough!” Shane roared. “If that's all you have to say, save your words.”
To talk about his parent's car accident was the last thing he wanted to do.
As long as he did not bring it up, they would still be a married couple. However, if he revealed what happened, they
would probably end up filing for a divorce.
It was because he knew that she would probably be overcome with so much guilt that she would choose to leave
him.
Reeling from his booming voice, Natalie shuddered but stated, “Sure, we will not talk about it. Let's talk about your
attitude instead. I did something wrong, and it's perfectly alright for you to be upset with me. But why do you have
to act the same way around the children? Do you know how hurt they are?”
“So what?” Her husband scowled at her. “They are not my biological children. Is there any reason for me to care
about their feelings?”
Instantly, Natalie gasped, and her heart felt like it was about to explode. “How... can you say that?”
“Isn't it true?” Shane looked at her with his face devoid of emotion. “They were never my children, to begin with. It
is good enough that I don't abuse them in any way. Why should I treat them like my biological children?”
After he finished his outburst, he turned and disappeared into the bathroom, leaving the woman frozen to the
ground in shock.
How could he say that?
Even though I never told him that the children were his, he did tell me he would treat them like his biological
children before our marriage. What's more, he has been so nice to them all this while...
Did he cut them off because I might have done something wrong?
Am I at fault?
She looked at the bathroom and regretted deciding to only reveal the truth to him on his birthday.
If she had told him earlier, would he still take out his anger on their children?
She could bear his fury, but she did not want him to turn against their children too.
With that thought in mind, Natalie squeezed her hands into a fist and decided not to hide the truth from him

“Shane.” She stood outside the bathroom and began to pound on the door. “Shane, I know you can hear me from
there. I have to tell you a secret regarding the children's birth. You are actually...”
Before she could complete her sentence, Shane threw the door open.
He strode past without even looking at her.
In a panic, she quickly chased after him to continue her sentence. “Shane, Connor and Sharon are actually...”
“I'll sleep in the guest room tonight.” Shane cut her off.
Hearing that, Natalie's face turned pale, and she stammered, “You want to sleep in a separate room from me?”
Once again, the man ignored her. Picking up a suit to wear the next day, he promptly left the room.
When the door slammed shut, Natalie started to tremble. Her knees buckled, and she fell onto the ground. As she
stared at the closed door, tears began to well up in her eyes.
He... He actually abandoned me to sleep in the guest room!
She bit her lips as tears rolled down her cheeks.
I don't understand. What on earth did I do? Was it so nasty that he had to treat me like that?
If that's the case, why does he have to keep the matter to himself? Not only is he keeping quiet about it, but he is
also giving me the cold shoulder.
