Chapter 1398
Mrs.Wilson was worried about Natalie being hurt or sick.
Shane looked down at Natalie as he answered, "She's fine; she fell asleep after crying."
"Crying?* Mrs.Wilson's brows furrowed.
"What happened, Mr.Shane? Why was she crying?"
Shane pressed his lips into a line.
"Because of Anders."
"Anders?"
Mrs.Wilson was taken aback briefly before covering her mouth in disbelief.
"Is Anders back?"
"Yeah" Shane nodded.
"She had always felt guilty for Anders.She could still suppress her guilt and kept it to herself when she didn't get to see Anders.Now that she saw him, she couldn't keep her guilt bottled up, and it burst through the cap, so she tired herself out from all the crying."
"I see" Mrs.Wilson sighed.
"That fits Madam's description."
Shane said, "I didn't stop her and just let her cry.She should let it out, or she might end up sick if she keeps everything bottled up."
"You're right, Mrs.Wilson agreed.Recalling something, Mrs.Wilson directed Shane into the house hurriedly.
"Hurry, Mr.Shane.Carry her into the house, or she might catch a cold from the chill."
Shane nodded and carried Natalie into the house.
When Natalie opened her eyes, it was already nine at night.She opened her eyes and saw the familiar ceiling.She massaged her temple, trying to recall her memory.
When did I come back? Natalie pushed herself up into a sitting position.The lights in the room were on.She scanned the room and saw Shane standing on the balcony with his back to her.
"Shane? “ she called out.
Hearing her call, Shane turned around and met her gaze.
"You're awake."
"Yeah." Natalie nodded.
Shane walked back into the room with a glass of red wine in his hand.
"Are you hungry?"Natalie rubbed her belly.
"A little."
"I'll have Mrs.Wilson send dinner up."
He set the wine glass down and made a call on his phone.
Soon, Mrs.Wilson heard about Natalie waking up and agreed to bring dinner up for her.
Shane put his phone down and turned to Natalie.
"Mrs.Wilson said she would be up soon."
"Okay; Natalie questioned, "what time is it, Shane?" Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Nine at night,"
Shane responded after a glimpse at his watch.
Natalie was stunned.
"I slept for so long?"
I remembered I lost consciousness after visiting Anders at the hospital.It was around six then.
That means I slept for three hours.
"It wasn't long."
Shane sat on the bed.
"How are you feeling?"
I know what he meant.He's asking how I feel after meeting Anders.
Tucking her hair behind her ear, she answered, "I'm feeling much better now.The guilt has always been at the back of my mind, nagging at me all the time.That was why my feelings got the better of me when I saw him.I'm feeling much better now that all my pent-up feelings are out, and I've thought things through.Since things had happened and Anders had ended up in that state, it was pointless for me to
continue letting the guilt eat at me.I can do better by treating Anders well in the future and change the quilt to something I could do for him."
Shane's eyes turned soft at her remarks.He patted her head.
"It's good that you think that way." Natalie laughed.
"My only hope is for Anders not to blame me.I'm worried he'll blame me for not being a responsible mom and not giving him a healthy body."
"He won't"
Shane pulled her into his arms, "We'll tell him the reason when he grows up.I believe our child can understand where we are coming from."
"Let's hope so."
Natalie rested her head on his shoulder.
A knock on the door broke their private moment.Shane said, "It should be Mrs.Wilson with your dinner.I'll be right back,"
"Okay." Natalie nodded.
Shane released her and got up toward the door.It was Mrs.Wilson outside with a tray of food.
"Mr.Shane, this is Madarr's dinner."
