Feel the Way You Feel, My Love
“No, I had some work to do on the flight home,” Shane said.
Natalie pursed her lips upon hearing that. “I knew I should’ve insisted on not having you come with us.
That way, you wouldn’t have ended up having to work on the flight home.”
Shane smiled when he heard her blaming herself for it. “There, there. It’s not your fault. So, what’s up?”
“Oh, I just received word that Jasmine is pregnant,” Natalie replied.
Shane arched an eyebrow in response. “Who’s the father?”
“I don’t know. The mental hospital staff are asking how we plan on handling this. They want to know if
they should let her out to care for the baby or remain in the hospital. I couldn’t make the decision on my
own, so I thought I’d seek your opinion on this,” Natalie answered.
Shane narrowed his eyes. “She has a private ward in the mental hospital. Staying there won’t affect her
pregnancy in any way.”
Natalie understood what he meant instantly. “So, you mean we shouldn’t let her out?”
“Yes, there’s no need to. She can keep the baby if she wants to or have it aborted if she doesn’t,” Shane
said.
While he wouldn’t choose to abort an innocent baby himself, the mother’s own decision was none of his
concern.
“Got it.” Natalie nodded before pouting as she continued, “Are you still busy working? If you are, you
should stop it and get some rest. You hear me? I don’t want you dying from overworking yourself! If you
die, I’ll take the kids with me and remarry! Let’s see how you like it when they call someone else
‘Daddy’!”
Shane’s expression turned gloomy instantly.
Although he knew Natalie was just saying that out of concern for his well-being, hearing it still made him
feel somewhat uncomfortable. “Don’t even think about it!”
Remarry? Have them call someone else “Daddy”? Not a chance!
Realizing he was angry, Natalie broke into a chuckle as she said, “All right, I’m just kidding! Hurry up and
get some rest! You’re already in your thirties, remember? What would the kids and I do without you?
Hmm… You know what? I think I might actually remarry and take them with me!”
“You dare?” Shane raised his voice.
Natalie laughed even louder in response. “Try me!”
Shane’s smile vanished as he said, “You won’t have the chance to do that. You will only belong to me.”
“Yeah, yeah, I know. Go get some rest. I’m going to head out for my competition soon, and I still have to
pick Jared up after that!” Natalie said while glancing at the time.
“Okay,” Shane mumbled before hanging up.
He then put his phone down and stared at the documents laid out in front of him. After a few seconds of
silence, he pushed them aside and got up.
He was a little hurt by Natalie’s comment on his age as well as her threat to take the kids with her and
remarry.
The fact that his kids would be calling another man “Daddy” angered him even further.
Hmph! Fine, I’ll get some rest, then! You’re not going to remarry some other guy! Shane thought to
himself and rubbed his forehead as he walked toward his bedroom.
“What a silly guy!” Natalie muttered with a smile as she put her phone away.
I bet Shane is getting some rest right now like I told him to! He may look all cold and aloof on the outside,
but you’ll see how childish and egotistical he can be once you get to know him. Maybe this is how he
truly is deep down inside, but his upbringing and education led to him hiding his personality underneath
that cold personality. He only shows his true self to those who are close to him, and I’m the closest one
there is.
After breakfast, Natalie handed the kids over to the housekeeper and left for the competition with Sally.
With more and more participants being eliminated from the competition, the rules began to change
accordingly as well.
Instead of eliminating the two participants who came in last in each team, the entire team would be
eliminated instead.
