“Really?” Natalie countered with a smile.
In response, Shane nodded. “Yes!”
“All right, let's not speak of that anymore. I'll go and see whether the kids have come back in or are still playing with
the drone outside.”
While saying that, Natalie dropped her hand from the man's shoulder to head out.
However, Shane grabbed her hand. “They've already come back in.”
“They have?” Hearing that, Natalie halted in her tracks.
Shane jerked his chin up a fraction in assent. “They've come back in earlier when you were busy. Thus, I brought
them upstairs to bathe and change. They're now sleeping.”
“They must have tired themselves out playing that they're taking their naps so early.” Circling around the couch,
Natalie sat down beside him.
Shane wrapped an arm around her shoulder and allowed her to snuggle into his embrace. “Yeah, they looked pretty
tired.”
“If so, we'll probably have a hard time waking them up at night,” Natalie lamented helplessly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChuckling, Shane suggested, “Then, we'll just let them sleep. We need to set out early tomorrow, so it's good that
they've got sufficient sleep, lest they throw a tantrum at waking too early in the morning.”
At his remark, Natalie's gaze dimmed. She lowered her eyes. “Time really flies. You're already going back with
Connor and Sharon tomorrow.”
“It's okay. I'll be coming over with them again next week. A short parting for the sake of one's dreams and career is
nothing unusual.” Dipping his head, Shane kissed her on the forehead.
“I know. I'm just a little reluctant to part with you all.” Natalie lifted her head and studied his handsome face.
Likewise, Shane stared at her. Without warning, he lowered his head and bit her lip.
Likewise, Shane stared at her. Without warning, he lowered his head and bit her lip.
Natalie's eyes went wide, and she proceeded to retaliate by doing the same.
Shane didn't bother dodging, allowing her to bite him as she pleased.
The instant she bit his lip, he abruptly leaned down and pinned her to the couch, planting a kiss on her.
Natalie was stunned at first. Subsequently, she cradled his face and huffed while glowering at him, “You played
dirty!”
Despite her accusation, Shane smirked. “How so? I never said I wanted to play a game where we bit each other's
lips. I only want to play this game with you, so it didn't count.”
After saying that, he dipped his head once more and captured her lips.
This time, Natalie couldn't push him away, no matter how much she tried. At long last, she could only resign herself
to her fate and allow him to have his way with her.
Later, she even lifted her arm and hooked it around his shoulder. At the same time, she tilted her chin slightly as
she responded to his passion.
On the stairs a near distance away, Lina stood rooted to the spot with an empty coffee cup in hand, gaping at the
couple canoodling on the couch expressionlessly. Verily, she was torn between going downstairs and heading back
upstairs.
Gosh, how lovey-dovey must they be? When they were apart, they kept calling each other and talking on the phone
for an eternity, both wishing to fly over to be with the other. Goosebumps rose all over me to listen to them, and
their displays of affection gave me indigestion. Now that they've finally met again, they're like conjoined twins,
sticking together all the time and getting all intimate whenever there's a chance. See? They're kissing right on the
couch in the living room. Can't they show this single lady some mercy?
When she noticed that they were still carrying on and seemingly even showed an inclination to take things further,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher eyes almost popped out of her head. She hastily glanced upstairs, breathing a sigh of relief upon seeing no one
there. Then, she cried out, “Stop!”
The couple on the couch promptly stilled at her voice.
Snapping his head up, Shane frowned and eyed Lina in chagrin, making it apparent that he was disgruntled at her
sudden interruption.
“You'd better give me a valid reason!” he snapped coldly.
Beneath him, Natalie jolted back to her senses. She swiftly pushed the man on top of her away and sat up, casting
a glance at Lina before straightening her hair and clothes with a blush staining her face. After doing all that, she
inquired in embarrassment, “Why have you come downstairs, Lina?”
Lina was initially still afraid of Shane, but she immediately shifted her gaze away from the chilly look in the man's
eyes upon hearing Natalie's voice. Looking at the latter, she retorted with a roll of her eyes, “Why, you asked? I
came downstairs for a drink of water after finishing my work, only to see you both kissing on the couch. Natalie, I
know your relationship with Mr. Thompson is very close, and you two want to be intimate all the time, but do
consider my feelings as a single lady. This is a public space!”
“Sorry.” At her reprimand, Natalie grew even redder.
