Shane simply snorted in response while Natalie found herself amused by Sally's antics.
“Come on, let's go!” Shane said as he moved his hand from Natalie's waist to her cheek and turned her head away
from Sally.
“All right, all right. I'm coming!” Natalie didn't know whether to laugh or cry in response as the four of them carried
on walking.
Due to the difference in time zones, Shane chose not to spend the night there and took a flight back later that
evening.
Since it was also nighttime when he returned to the country, he was able to avoid suffering from jet lag.
The two kids were disappointed when they woke up and saw that Shane was gone. However, they smiled happily
again when Natalie comforted them and said he would come over a few days later.
Suddenly, Natalie's phone rang on the nightstand, and she answered it happily when she saw Jared's name on the
caller ID. “Hey, Jared!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Hey, Nat! Are you still in Astoria?” he asked gently.
Natalie nodded. “Yeah, I am. Why?”
“My teacher is going to organize a traveling exhibition, and the next stop will be Astoria. I'll be able to see you
then!” Jared replied.
Natalie was overjoyed. “That's great! Sharon and Connor will surely be happy when they hear this. When will you be
arriving? I'll go pick you up!”
“Tomorrow at four in the afternoon,” Jared replied.
Natalie noted the time down in her head. “Got it!”
My competition will be over by four, so I'll have time to go pick him up at the airport.
The two then chatted a little bit longer to catch up before ending the call.
Natalie went to tell her kids about their uncle coming over to visit them, and they were really happy as they hadn't
seen him in a long time.
The three of them played for quite a while. The kids were very energetic as they had been sleeping during the day.
Natalie, on the other hand, was really tired and sleepy.
Fortunately for her, Connor eventually told her to get some sleep in her room as he could help look after Sharon.
As she had always found Connor to be very reliable, Natalie left them and went to bed after blowing her hair dry.
The next morning, she was woken up by Sally, who said, “Someone called asking for you earlier.”
“Who was it?” Natalie asked with a yawn while leaning lazily against the door frame.
“It's someone from the mental hospital. They said Jessie has been found to be pregnant,” Sally replied.
Natalie's eyes went wide instantly when she heard that. “What? Jasmine... I mean, Jessie is pregnant? Who's the
father?”
Sally shook her head. “I don't know, and I doubt the mental hospital does either. Only Jessie would know the answer
to that.”
“I can't believe she got pregnant!” Natalie exclaimed with a frown.
“I know, right? I was shocked too when I first heard about it! The staff from the mental hospital was asking how we
plan on handling this. They want to know if we plan on letting her out to better care for her baby, or if they should

Natalie pursed her lips. “I'll ask Shane about this.”
I don't want to make this decision by myself! A human life is involved here! I should talk to Shane first.
Sally nodded. “Sure. I'll leave this to you and Mr. Shane then. Hurry up and come downstairs for breakfast. I'll go
get the kids.”
“Okay.”
Natalie waited till Sally had left before frowning as she closed the door behind her.
Damn, I wasn't expecting Jasmine to get pregnant... It's nighttime where Shane is right now, so he should have
arrived by now.
With that in mind, she sat down on the bed and gave Shane a call.
Shane's tired voice came on the phone moments later. “What's up?”
“Hey, Darling! Did you not get any sleep on the flight?” Natalie asked with a frown.
He didn't sleep at all before coming here with me, and he stayed up the whole time to look after the kids on the
flight here. That means he has stayed up for over a day! Not getting any sleep on the flight back would mean he
has been up for 36 hours!
