Chapter 545

Chapter 545Half an hour later, they arrived at the apartment.
Natalie took out her key card to open the door.
Pulling her luggage with one hand, Yulia followed Natalie into the house.
As soon as Yulia entered, she felt that something was amiss. Scanning the apartment with narrowed
eyes, she placed her hand on the shoe rack.
Immediately, her hand was covered with dust and turned black.
Yulia's face darkened instantly. She wiped away the dust on her fingers and asked, “Baby Girl, have
you moved out?”
Natalie knew that Yulia would ask the question sooner or later. Hence, she lowered her head and
hummed in response guiltily.
“Where have you moved to?” Yulia gazed at Natalie and asked, “Why did you move out all of a
sudden? Also, since you've moved out, why didn't you bring me to your new house but here instead?
Do you not welcome me to your new house? Or is it too small?”
Feeling guilty, she kept her head down upon hearing Yulia's series of questions. “Mom, I-I moved to my
boyfriend's house.”
“What?” Yulia was stunned for a moment before she continued in a surprised tone, “Boyfriend?”
“Yes.” Natalie nodded.
Yulia got excited. “Baby Girl, since when did you have a boyfriend? Why didn't you tell me? Besides,
does your boyfriend like Connor and Sharon? Tell you what, you shouldn't be with him if he doesn't likethe kids. Also, you shouldn't neglect them for his sake.”
Half an hour later, they arrived at the apartment.
Natalie took out her key card to open the door.
Natalie burst into laughter and explained, “Mom, what kind of a person am I to you? Don't worry. He
loves Connor and Sharon. Besides, he treats them as his children.”
“Really?” Yulia nodded with satisfaction and continued, “Well, it's good to hear that. By the way, you
haven't told me who he is.”
“He...” Natalie avoided her gaze and said, “Mom, can you promise me to stay calm after I tell you?”
“Stay calm?” Yulia knitted her brows.
Well, he's probably someone I know but don't like very much. Otherwise, Nat wouldn't ask me to stay
calm.
The only man who meets the two conditions is...
“It isn't Shane, is it?” Yulia glared at her.
Natalie was shocked when Yulia guessed it correctly and effortlessly.
Judging from Natalie's reaction, Yulia knew the answer immediately. Fuming, she took a deep breath
and growled, “So it's him!”
Natalie fiddled with her fingers and replied, “Yes, it's him!”
“Why?” Yulia's expression turned grim. “Natalie, when I left last time, didn't I say that you should not be
with him? I understand that you love him, yet you'll be in danger if you insist on being with him. Haveyou forgotten the two incidents that almost led to your death?”
“I know.” Natalie gazed at her and continued, “But the one who harmed me has been arrested.”
However, another mysterious mastermind who burnt her warehouse and instructed some men to
abduct her was not identified yet. Natalie wasn't sure if the mastermind was also a great admirer of
Shane.
Nonetheless, Natalie believed that the probability of two of his admirers harming her at the same time
was low. As such, she was inclined to believe that the mastermind was her enemy instead.
“Has she been arrested?” Yulia blinked her eyes in shock.
Natalie replied, “Yes, her name is Alice, and she's the daughter of the Brown family. Now, she is in jail.”
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookYulia fell silent as she was still displeased by the fact that Natalie was dating Shane. After a while, she
pursed her lips and said, “Although the one who harmed you has been arrested, you two are still not a
good match. Given that he's the head of the Thompson family, his social status is way higher than
yours. More importantly, you already have two kids. Do you think he'll accept your kids? Won't their
position in the Thompson family be awkward?”
Natalie chuckled. “Mom, the two questions that you mentioned are not a concern.”
“What do you mean?” Yulia frowned and asked in puzzlement.
Natalie took a deep breath as though she had just made an important decision. A few moments later,
she clenched her fists and mustered up the courage to say, “It's because he's the biological father of
Connor and Sharon.”
