Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 603
Connor snorted as acknowledgment.
“Alright, you go back to your room and have fun.” Natalie patted him on the shoulder.
Connor then went on to hold Sharon’s hand who was eating an apple at the side and left scampering
for their room.
Shane didn’t stay for too long upstairs, and very soon, he came down.
Natalie looked at him. “Shane, is Ms. Graham okay?”
“She’s fine.” Shane took her hand and sat down with her.
Natalie heaved a sigh. “I told Connor already, and he’ll not argue with Ms. Graham anymore.”
Shane responded with a brief hum. “I understand that you and the two children don’t really welcome
Jacqueline. Don’t worry, she’ll not stay here for too long. Mr. Gunn is aware that Jacqueline has been
discharged from the hospital, and he’ll take her in and let her stay there for a while.”
“Mr. Gunn?” Natalie frowned in puzzlement. “Are Ms. Graham and Mr. Gunn related?”
“Mr. Gunn is the maternal grandfather of Jacqueline’s mother,” Shane stroke her wavy soft hair as he
explained to her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie nodded. “I see.”
She didn’t expect that Jacqueline was related to the bigshot at one time in J City who had retired.
However, she still couldn’t quite figure out why Jacqueline didn’t return to the Gunn residence since Mr.
Gunn was her maternal great-grandfather.
“What are you thinking about?” seeing as Natalie sank into deep thoughts, Shane took a sip of water
and asked.
Natalie snapped back to her senses and shook her head in response. “Nothing. I need to work on
something at the studio.”
“Alright.” Shane nodded.
Natalie got up and walked upstairs.
Her studio was on the second floor, and so was Jacqueline’s room.
When Natalie arrived on the second floor, she saw Jacqueline carrying a few gift bags out of her room.
Jacqueline didn’t expect to see Natalie there as well, so she was stunned for a moment before she
smiled and said, “Ms. Smith, this is for you.”
She handed one of the bags over to Natalie.
Natalie shot a look at that but didn’t take it.
Seeing as such, Jacqueline shoved the bag into her hand. “Just take it, Ms. Smith. I can’t just live here
without returning a favor. These are some gifts I’ve prepared for every one of you, and this one here is
yours.”
With that, Jacqueline carried the remaining bags, walked past Natalie, and went downstairs.
Looking at her figure as she left and then at the bag in her own hand, Natalie bit her lower lip and
pushed open the door to her studio.
After she went in, she opened the gift bag and saw that it was a crystal mouse pendant.
The glint in Natalie’s eyes dimmed at once when she saw the pendant, and she let out a sardonic
laugh.
It was because that mouse was not at all endearing and adorable. Instead, it looked wretched and
despicable, as it was Professor Ratigan who was the most infamous criminal in The Great Mouse
Detective.
Does Jacqueline give me this mouse in an attempt to imply that I’ve stolen Shane from her, and now
she’s disgusting me with this?
Thinking of that, Natalie closed the box with a cold glint in her eyes and threw it directly into the
dustbin.
Soon, it was time for dinner.
Because of Jacqueline’s presence, the two children didn’t seem as animated as usual. They just ate in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsilence during dinner without saying a word.
Natalie didn’t know what to say either, so she remained quiet as well.
The atmosphere was so gawky that the air in the spacious dining room turned very tense and
depressing.
In the end, it was Jacqueline who took the initiative to break the silence.
She gazed at Natalie’s neck and asked, “Ms. Smith, didn’t you wear the pendant I gave to you?”
“I threw it.” Natalie took a spoonful of soup and answered in a straightforward manner.
Mortified, Jacqueline pressed, “You threw it?”
“That’s right.” Natalie nodded.
Jacqueline bit her lip, looking very upset. “Why? Is it because it was a gift from me?”
Natalie set down her spoon and was about to say something.
But before she could do that, Jacqueline added, “Ms. Smith, don’t you think that you’ve crossed the
line? I meant good with the gift. How could you just throw it away?”
In reply to her questioning, Natalie folded her arms and looked at her with a faint smile. “The gift is
awful. Can’t I throw it away?”
“What gift is that?” Seeing that an argument broke out between the women, Shane finally spoke as he
put down the fork and turned to Jacqueline.
