“She asked me about what happened to you overseas,” replied Sharon while she sucked on her thumb.
Pursing his lips, Connor chimed in, “She asked me something else. She asked about my daddy.”
“Daddy?” Natalie frowned in suspicion.
Why did she have to ask the kids about Shane? Doesn't she know him better than them?
When Connor saw Natalie's expression, he instantly knew that she had misunderstood. Waving his tiny hands, he
clarified, “It's not like that, Mommy. she's not talking about Mr. Shane, but our biological father.”
Natalie's eyes widened. “How did she ask you?”
“She asked us if we knew who our biological father is. Then, she asked if we wanted to find him.”
A grim look crossed Natalie's face as she clenched her fists.
Why is Jacqueline asking that?
“How did you reply?” asked Natalie with her hands on the children's shoulders.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConnor snorted proudly. “I ignored her and said that I don't know what 'biological father' means. I just said that Mr.
Shane's our father and left with Sharon.”
“Good job!” Smiling, Natalie kissed their cheeks.
Biting his lips, Connor asked, “Mommy, who is our biological father? Is he still alive?”
He had already asked this question multiple times, but Natalie never told him the answer.
Natalie forced out a smile on her face. “He's still alive.”
“Where is he?” Connor and Sharon stared at her simultaneously.
Standing up and holding their hands, Natalie walked toward the dining room. “He's in this city.”
“Really?” The children were shocked.
Natalie replied, “Yeah, it's true. If you really wish to know who your biological father is, I'll tell you everything a few
days later.”
It would be Shane's birthday soon. She initially planned to reveal the children's true identity to him on that day.
Since the children were asking about it now, she was even more determined to tell all of them.
Although they did not know why Natalie needed to wait till a few days later to tell them, they did not ask any more
questions. After all, she definitely had her own reasons for that.
Everything would be clear once that day arrived.
After breakfast, Shane left the villa first.
He needed to return to Thompson Group to hold a meeting about the diamond mine.
Hence, Natalie was responsible for sending the kids.
As for Jacqueline, Jackson fetched her away after breakfast. He brought her to the hospital for an eye checkup.
At nine-thirty in the morning, Natalie went to the office after sending her children to the kindergarten. Just when
she switched on her computer, her phone rang.
When she whipped out her phone and glanced at it, she saw that the call was from a local unknown number. After a
moment of hesitation, she picked it up. “Hello?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Are you Ms. Natalie Smith?” A male voice sounded.
She nodded. “Yes. Who are you?”
“I'm here to deliver something. Please come down and take it.” He replied.
Natalie was confused. “I'm not expecting any delivery. Did you get the wrong person?”
“The name reads Natalie Smith. It's impossible that I got the wrong person.”
With her puzzlement increased, she asked, “May I know who sent it?”
“I don't know. It didn't include the details of the sender,” replied the man.
Natalie massaged her temples. “Okay. Where are you? I'll ask someone to take it for me.”
“I'm afraid that can't do,” said the man, sounding like he was in a tight spot. “The parcel said that you have to
accept it personally.”
What is it that I have to accept it personally?
Natalie looked down.
A mysterious delivery, an unknown sender and having to accept it personally... These suspicious clues combined
make me feel really uneasy.
After thinking about it, Natalie stood up and replied, “Okay, I'll come down right away.”
