CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1645

Natalie stared at the child. “You two heard that? Where?”

Sharon turned to look at Connor before looking down at her fidgeting fingers. “When Connor and I went to look for you and Daddy, you were telling Daddy about this, so we accidentally heard it.”

“I see.” Shane nodded in realization.

He was impressed by how long the children managed to keep it a secret despite having known about the truth for so long.

“You two.” Natalie did not know whether she should laugh or cry. Shaking her head slightly, she playfully poked the twins' foreheads.

Rubbing the spot on her forehead that had just been poked, Sharon asked quizzically, “Mommy, why did Uncle Stanley do something like that? Doesn't he like Connor and me? Why would he take Connor away and make Connor get into a car accident?”

“Yeah, Mommy.” Connor clasped his hands together and looked down at the floor miserably. “I admire Uncle Stanley. In fact, I've thought about becoming a doctor in the future, just like Uncle Stanley. And yet, he tried to harm me. I'm very upset.”

Natalie was rendered speechless by the twins' question. She had no idea how to answer.

After all, she still had no clue as to why Stanley would do such a thing in the first place.

Just then, Shane cut in. “If you guys want to know the answer, then you should go straight to Stanley

when we visit this time and personally ask him why he did that.”

“Personally ask him?” Connor raised his head to meet Shane's eyes.

Shane hummed in response. “That's right. A lot of times, you won't get answers if you ask anyone else. Only those directly involved would have the answer. Asking them directly is also the best way to get the answers you're looking for. In this case, there's no use in asking your mommy, for she doesn't know the answer either. The only thing you can do is ask Stanley why he did something like that and clarify if there are any misunderstandings between the two of you. That's how a man should act.”

Connor nodded slowly as he pondered over Shane's answer. “I got it, Daddy. I will face it bravely. I really do want to know why Uncle Stanley would want to hurt me, and I want him to tell me the answer himself.”

“Good boy.” Shane smiled.

“All right. Let's continue eating. The food's getting cold.” Natalie rubbed the children's tiny heads affectionately as she spoke.

The two children nodded in unison. The heavy atmosphere gave way to a light-hearted one as the children munched away happily. All of their misery seemed to be replaced by joy as they perked up.

After dinner, Natalie and Shane played with Anders for a while before asking Zaylee to bring the baby back to the nursery to rest.

Anders was still young, so he needed more sleep in order to grow healthily.

The next day, Natalie and Shane brought the twins on an outing while Anders stayed back in the villa.

After all, he was still a baby. It would not be convenient to bring him out of the house. Moreover, no one wanted to risk Anders catching an infection and falling sick.

Hence, Anders was left behind in the villa with Zaylee looking after him.

Lina gladly volunteered to take care of Anders as well.

With Zaylee, Lina, and the bodyguards protecting Anders, Natalie and Shane could feel at ease bringing the twins out of the house. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

The couple had not brought the children out to play for quite some time. Hence, they were glad to be able to have the opportunity to spend some time with them that day.

As for the two children, they were overjoyed by the fact that their parents were taking them out. They skipped happily along the road as giggles filled the air.

The children were well aware that Shane and Natalie were normally quite busy. Despite wanting to spend time with their parents, Connor and Sharon decided it was best to be understanding and not make a fuss.

They had originally wanted to look for an opportunity to beg their parents for a day out together after Natalie's competition.

To their pleasant surprise, their wish came true so suddenly before Natalie's competition had even ended. Thus, the children were ecstatic.

“Mommy, where are we going today?” Connor lifted his head to blink up at Natalie hopefully.

Meanwhile, Sharon tugged Natalie's hand. “Yeah, Mommy. Where are we going?”

“Uh...” Natalie hesitated. Truth be told, she had not planned out their itinerary for the day.

An idea flashed across her mind. Turning to look at Shane, she quickly directed the question to him. “Darling, where are we going?”

Upon seeing the three hopeful faces looking at him, Shane could not help but chuckle lightly. “I have no idea where we're going either, but what's important is that we're spending time with the two children today. So, why don't we let you kids decide what we're doing today?”
