Chapter 452

Chapter 452“What are you talking about?” Natalie blushed instantly and shot Joyce a fierce glare.
“I'm just trying to help you out here, Nat!” Joyce leaned in closer to Natalie's ear and whispered, “I have
asked Mr. Shane about it earlier. He said he's willing to marry you, no matter how many times you
reject him. More importantly, he likes your kids too! He's a great man, Nat! You should think about it!
The kids will need a father figure, you know?”
Joyce then left the house while Natalie shook her head and smiled helplessly.
She does make a good point, though... The kids will need a father figure in life...
Natalie then turned around to face Shane as she asked, “Mr. Shane, are you serious about being with
me?”

Natalie held her hands in front of her chest and looked like she wanted to say something, but the words
were stuck in her throat.
Shane stood up and walked up to her. “I know it can be hard to believe what I told you today morning,
but I hope you'll at least give me a chance to prove my words. Will you do that for me?”
Natalie had always liked him to begin with, so she no longer had any reason to refuse his advances
after hearing that. “Okay...”
Maybe this isn't a bad idea after all... If we really do end up together, I'll tell him the truth about the kids.
If things don't work out, I could just leave with the kids at any time.
Shane wasn't sure what Natalie was thinking about, but he knew better than to question why she
seemed to have loosened up a lot.“Mrs. Wilson has made us dinner. Come on, let's head over to my place,” he said while checking his
watch.
Natalie instinctively thought of rejecting his invitation, but remembered what she had just promised him
and agreed to it instead. “Okay, sure.”
With that, the two of them walked towards his apartment.
Throughout the next few days, Shane would come over to her place for breakfast and drop the kids off
at kindergarten before sending her to work.
Natalie knew it was his way of courting her and had slowly gotten used to his approach. Although it
wasn't exactly the most romantic one, it was very practical and new to her, so she didn't really mind it at
all.
One day, Natalie was working on a suit for Shane as compensation when someone opened the door to
her office.
Having been interrupted while working, Natalie looked up at the person in annoyance, only to exclaim
in surprise when she saw who it was, “Mr. Sean!”
Sean flashed her a bright smile while leaning against the door. “Yo, long time no see!”
“What brings you here all of a sudden?” Natalie asked as she put down the scissors.
Sean walked up to her and arched an eyebrow when he saw the suit on the table. “I thought you
specialize in women's clothing?”
Natalie narrowed her eyes. “That's true, but we had to learn to do men's clothing too. Nothing strange
about that, is there?”Sean adjusted his glasses. “It's strange when you're personally working on it. Judging by the
measurements, I'd say this is for Shane, isn't it?”
Natalie was surprised that he had hit the nail on the head, but she maintained her composure anyway.
“Is there something you need, Mr. Sean?” she asked impatiently as she put the suit aside.
Sean clicked his tongue in annoyance when she avoided his question. “Tsk, tsk... To think you'd take
this attitude with me after I told Shane to reinvestigate what happened back then... How disappointing...
Anyway, I came to confirm if you and Shane are dating now.”
