Shane was naturally supportive of the plan.

Today was a Monday, and the evening was reserved for the children.

Just as the four were engrossed in watching a cartoon, Shane's cell phone rang.

Natalie and the children glanced at him.

Shane realized that his phone had interrupted their moment of togetherness and he apologized, feeling rather

embarrassed.

“It's fine. See who the caller is. If it's urgent, just answer it,” Natalie said.

Connor nodded. “Yes, Daddy, if it's urgent, you have to handle it first. Anyway, we have plenty of time.”

“Mmm, go, Daddy, go,” Sharon added.

Seeing the three were so forgiving, Shane laughed softly and took out his cell phone.

“It's from Jackson.” Shane pursed his lips.

Natalie was surprised. “Dr. Baker? It's so late. Why would he call? Please do answer him.”

Shane murmured a reply and answered the call.

What Jackson said on the other end of the line could not be heard but Natalie noticed that Shane's expression was a

little unhappy. Finally, he said, “That's not necessary,” and put down the phone.

“What's up?” Natalie asked.

Shane shut his cell phone and dropped it on the coffee table. “Jackson has selected a cemetery plot for Jacqueline

for the burial tomorrow. He asked me if I would be there to take a look.”

“There's no reason to go.” Natalie was not concerned at all when she replied plainly.

Who would go to attend an enemy's funeral? ”I know you won't go, and I don't want to, either. That's why I told him

there's no need,” Shane replied.

Natalie nodded. “Thank you.”

Jackson's thoughts are a mystery. He knows full well that we hated Jacqueline. Why on earth would we want to pay

her our last respects?

Yet, Jackson had asked them if they wished to go.

“That's it. Let's continue watching the show” Shane picked up the remote control and resumed playing the cartoon

film which had been put on pause.

The family of four entered into a time of warm companionship again, right up to ten o'clock before retiring to bed.

The next day, when Natalie woke up, it was already nine in the morning.

Shane had already gone out of the bedroom. She felt his side of the bed and found it still warm.

Presumably, he had only just gotten out of bed.

Natalie stretched herself, pulled the blanket aside and got out of bed. Then, she entered the bathroom to take a

shower.

After washing up, she opened the door and prepared to go downstairs.

As soon as the door was opened, she saw the two children standing outside, smiling at her. “Mummy, good

morning.”

She was initially startled by the kids, then pleasantly surprised. She laughed. “Why are you here? Are you here to

wake me up?”

Connor nodded. “Yes, Daddy wanted us to wake you up for breakfast.”

“Daddy?” Natalie raised an eyebrow. “Your daddy is still at home?”

“Yes, he's downstairs,” Sharon replied.

Natalie was surprised. “Well, if that is so, let's go downstairs quickly.”

She had thought that Shane would have left for work. It was a pleasant surprise for her that he was staying to have

breakfast with them.

After all, it was already nine o'clock and work had already started at the Thompson Group office.

Natalie went downstairs, sandwiched between the two children. Shane was seated on the sofa in the hall holding a

finance magazine which he was flipping through and reading.

Hearing their footsteps, he put down the magazine and turned around. At the sight of the trio coming downstairs, a

gentle smile instantly took the place of his usually cold expression. “So, you are up!”

“Yeah.” Natalie nodded. “I thought you have gone to work.”

“I'm not going to the office today. I have to inspect the branch in J City, so I can leave a little later.” Shane stood up

as he spoke.

Natalie lifted her chin. “Oh, I see.”

“Come, let's go for breakfast.” Shane made a move.

The kids exchanged glances, then they let go of Natalie's hands and pushed her into Shane's arms.

Natalie was totally unprepared for this. In an instant, before she realized what was happening, she was thrust

toward Shane.
