Chapter 1685Chapter 1685 Has She Eaten
However, Lina guessed she most likely could not accomplish the task of persuading Natalie by Shane's
request.
“By the way, where's Anders?” Natalie took a few bites and suddenly thought of something. She turned
her head and asked the woman beside her, who was clearly lost in thought.
Lina's eyes flickered as she regained her focus and replied with a smile, “Anders is still with Mdm.
Zorus. When I brought your meal up, Anders had just finished drinking milk and is probably asleep by
now. Do you want to see Anders? If you do, I can ask Mdm. Zorus to bring Anders up here.”
Natalie shook her head and said with a smile, “No. Since Anders is asleep, I won't see him now. If we
pick him up now, he'll wake up crying. Although he doesn't cry much, it's difficult to soothe him when he
does. I'll see him tomorrow.” Lina replied with a curt, “That works too.”
Natalie noticed the eye bags under her eyelids and said with concern, “Lina, if you're tired, go back to
your room and rest first.”
“No need.” Lina waved her hand, rejecting Natalie's kindness. “I'll wait for you to finish eating, and then
we'll go down together and put these things away.”
Pointing at the tray and dining utensils in Natalie's hand, Lina smiled as she said, “You probably don't
want to go downstairs either. After all, Mr. Thompson is still downstairs, and you don't really want to see
him.”
Her words hit Natalie on the head, and the latter fell silent.

request.
Natalie gave a hum in response and continued eating her meal.
However, she seemed to have little appetite. She was not very focused while eating, as if she had
something on her mind.
Lina noticed this but did not ask her what was on her mind.
Lina did not need to think much to guess it must be about Shane.
For a moment, the room fell silent, with neither person speaking. All that could be heard were their soft
breaths and the sounds of eating.
After some time, Natalie finished eating and put down the fork.
Lina heard the noise and put down her phone, looking at Natalie. “Are you done?”
Natalie gave a hum of acknowledgment.
Lina asked again, “Are you full? If not, I can go get you some more.”
“That was enough. I'm already full. If I can't get full with all this food, wouldn't that make me a big
eater?” Natalie wiped her mouth and said with a smile.
Lina yawned again. “All right, then. I'll head downstairs first, then.”
“Go ahead. Get some rest early.” Natalie nodded.
Lina picked up the tray, stood up, and walked toward the door. After taking a couple of steps forward,
she seemed to have thought of something and turned her head back. She looked at Natalie andsmiled. “Nat, do you want me to find out where Mr. Thompson is sleeping tonight?”
Natalie's eyes flickered as if she was pretty tempted. However, she quickly suppressed this impulse
and shook her head. “No need. The villa is so big, and there are so many guest rooms. He can stay in
any of them. Do I need to worry about him not having a place to sleep?”
“Even though you say that, are you sure you do not need me to ask for you?” Lina asked again.
Natalie still replied with a hum. “No need.”
“All right, then.” Lina shrugged. “I won't ask anymore. I'll leave first. Bye, see you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow.” Natalie managed to squeeze out a smile in response.
Lina turned her head back and continued walking toward the door.
Soon, she came downstairs.
Shane, sitting in the living room waiting for her to come downstairs, heard footsteps and immediately
stood up from the sofa. He looked to the stairs and asked, “Has she eaten yet?”
His sudden remark startled Lina, almost causing her to fall down the stairs.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and managed to steady herself in time. Once she was back on her
feet, she looked at Shane with a resentful gaze and said, “Mr. Thompson, could you please wait until
I'm on level ground when you start speaking?”
Shane frowned and then asked again, “Has she eaten?”
Lina's mouth twitched, at a loss for words.It seemed the man did not pay any attention to what she said at all and was solely focused on whether
or not Natalie had eaten.
