Chapter 1738Chapter 1738 Ungrateful
This chapter upload first at NovelEbook.OrgIt was quite strange. As soon as Anders was in Stanley's arms, he quickly calmed down and stopped
crying. However, since he had been crying so loudly and for so long, he was still sniffling. With teary
eyes, he looked at Stanley and broke into a smile.
Upon seeing that scene, Shane's mouth twitched slightly, and then he fell silent. He looked into Anders'
eyes with a hint of resentment.
After all, just moments ago, the little child was crying so fiercely in his arms, as if he, the father, was a
bad person.
Yet, in Stanley's arms, Anders' crying stopped in such a short time, and he even gave a smile to
Stanley.
If one didn't know better, one might have thought that Stanley was Anders' father.
“What an ungrateful little one,” Shane murmured with slightly pursed lips.
Stanley heard that and said with a faint smile, “It's a bit unfair for you to say that about Anders, Mr.
Thompson. After all, it was you who scared him. Even though children are young, they're not
completely clueless. He knows who frightened him, so it's only natural for him to be cautious and
resistant toward that person.”
“All right, enough.” Shane frowned and quickly interrupted him. Otherwise, the more Stanley spoke, the more uncomfortable he felt inside.
It was obvious that the child was his son, yet he was nestled comfortably in Stanley's arms. As a father,
it was hard for him not to feel upset.
Stanley knew that as well, so he just chuckled and stopped talking. He continued to pat Anders' back,
comforting him.
Anders looked at Stanley for a while, then let out a yawn. His eyes began to flutter, not quite closing.
But it was clear that sleepiness was taking over.
Children tend to be easily distracted and can only focus for a short while.
On top of that, having just cried, Anders was already tired, so naturally, sleepiness set in at that
moment.
Furthermore, children could fall asleep so easily. One moment they have just started to feel drowsy,
and the next, they've closed their eyes and drifted off to sleep.
It was so fast that it was amusing.
After making sure that Anders was indeed asleep, Stanley handed Anders over to Shane with both
hands. “Mr. Thompson, here's your son.”
If he did not return Anders soon, he was afraid that Shane might just kill him. He tried to comfort Anders for a while, and all that time, Shane stared at him intently, as if treating him
like a criminal. It was as if he thought that Stanley really intended to do something to Anders.
As he held Anders for longer, the man's gaze on him grew darker and darker, as if suppressing
something.
He knew that the man was holding back his impatience.
An impatience to kill him.
So, as soon as Anders fell asleep, he quickly handed the child over.
Upon seeing Stanley return his son, Shane's expression finally improved significantly. He quickly
reached out and carefully cradled her son in his arms.
He was afraid of waking Anders up, so he was extremely gentle when adjusting the little one's position.
Anders looked at Stanley for a while, then let out a yawn. His eyes began to flutter, not quite closing.
But it was clear that sleepiness was taking over.
Stanley sat across from Shane and suddenly said with a smile, “I didn't expect you to be quite good at
taking care of children. The way you hold the child is not awkward at all. You are quite skilled. I assume
you often personally take care of Anders?”
Shane raised his gaze and glanced at him faintly. “Do I need you to tell me that? He's my son, so of
course, I'll take care of him personally.” Even though he was busy and could not take care of Anders for the entire day, he always managed to
squeeze in two hours every day to hug, kiss, and chat with his son no matter how busy he was.
In addition to ensuring that his son always remembered him, what held even greater significance for
him was the desire to foster a strong and nurturing bond between father and son starting from a young
age.
He missed out on Connor and Sharon's early years, so he didn't want to miss out on Anders' early
years as well.
No doubt, as a father, he had failed.
“Mr. Thompson, it seems that you are indeed a good father,” Stanley said with his arms crossed.
Shane responded with a dismissive glance, indicating his disregard for the comment, before choosing
to ignore it completely. He simply continued to hold his son, fixating his gaze upon the child with
unwavering focus.
The little one perfectly inherited the good genes from both him and Natalie.
Both he and Natalie had good looks, so naturally, their child wouldn't be any different in terms of
appearance.
