Why!
Natalie was unwilling to accept things as they were and was determined to clarify things with Shane. Even if he did
not say anything, she would force a reply out of him.
If she did do something heinous, she hoped he could punish her straightforwardly instead of treating her and the
children coldly.
With that thought in mind, she quickly got up and walked out the door.
However, once outside, she was stunned.
The villa was so big that there were nearly a dozen guest rooms alone.
Moreover, she did not know which one he had entered. Don't tell me I have to search them one by one?
She glanced across the rows of rooms on the third floor and eventually decided to look through each one.
The first was empty.
The second too.
Just as she was about to open the third door, Jacqueline suddenly came from downstairs. As soon as she saw
Natalie standing palely in front of the guest rooms, she smirked. However, she asked in a doubtful tone, “It's late,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMs. Smith. Why're you not resting? What're you looking for?”
However, Natalie ignored her and proceeded to open the third door.
Nevertheless, Jacqueline did not throw a fit at being ignored.
She could tell that Natalie was already on the losing end. Thus, she did not find it worth her time to get angry with
her.
Even if Shane still protected Natalie then, the more evidence he saw as time passed, his attitude toward Natalie
would only become colder. Then, in the end, he would not protect her any longer.
When that time comes, Natalie will surely be kicked out!
Then, Jacqueline opened the fifth door with an excited expression. She deliberately raised her voice as she said,
“I'm coming in, Shane.”
After speaking, she looked over at Natalie with a provoking gaze before entering the room and closing the door.
Natalie gripped tightly onto the door handle as her heart prickled with pain.
When Shane left their bedroom to stay in a guest room, he had not told her which room he had gone to stay in.
Instead, he told Jacqueline.
Furthermore, he even let her enter his room late at night. What on earth is he thinking!
Instantly, Natalie began to feel upset. She stared at Shane's door as she contemplated what to do.
However, she did not knock on the door to clear things up with him, for Jacqueline was there.
After all, it was a private matter between her and her husband. She did not intend to let Jacqueline find out about it.
Thus, Natalie took a deep breath and suppressed the bitter feeling in her heart before she turned around and
headed back into her room.
That night, she barely caught a wink of sleep. Hence, she had dark circles under her eyes the next morning,
shocking both her children.
“Mommy, you...” Connor pointed at her eyes.
She shook her head and replied, “Mommy's fine.”
Then, she brought the two children to the stairs.
Before heading downstairs, she glanced over at the guest room Shane had stayed in for the night.
Is he up yet?
At that moment, Mrs. Wilson was busy cleaning downstairs. As soon as she saw the trio, she hurriedly put down the
rag and went over. “Madam, did you and sir fight?”
Natalie lowered her head and replied in a soft voice, “No.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShane was merely giving her the cold shoulder.
“That's weird!” Mrs. Wilson mumbled, frowning.
At that, Natalie looked over at her and asked, “What's the matter?”
“This morning, when he came downstairs, I asked why you weren't down yet. His expression turned very weird, and
he left without eating.”
Natalie clenched her fists. “He left?”
“Yeah.” Mrs. Wilson nodded, then asked, “Did something happen? Something didn't feel right between you two last
night.”
Natalie shook her head. “I'm also curious to know what happened.”
“Come again?” The housekeeper was stunned by her answer. “You're telling me you don't know?”
“Yeah,” replied Natalie as she smiled bitterly. “I asked him about it, but he refused to speak to me.”
“What exactly happened to him then?” whispered Mrs. Wilson in a suspicious tone.
Seeing no need to reply to that query, Natalie brought her two children to the dining room.
As they made their way there, Connor raised his head and asked, “Mommy, did you and Daddy not make up yet?”
