The moment she heard Lina, Natalie deleted her half-composed message, put away her phone, and looked up in
the direction of the VIP passage.
Indeed, Shane was walking toward her with the two kids, Silas, and their bodyguards.
“Mommy!” The kids spotted her and excitedly waved at her.
“Hi!” Natalie greeted them as she ran toward them.
Connor struggled free from Shane, who was holding onto his little hand, and ran toward Natalie.
Shane was carrying Sharon in his other arms. She anxiously wanted to go to her mother as well. She impatiently
patted Shane on his shoulders as she watched her brother run toward Natalie and exclaimed, “Put me down,
Daddy! I want to go to Mommy too!”
Shane could not understand her impatience but was amused by their excitement, so he obligingly knelt down and

Sharon quickly ran and caught up with Connor, who was waiting for her, and the two of them threw themselves into
Natalie's arms at the same time.
“Oh, my babies! Mommy missed you so much!” Natalie was down on her knees, hugging the two kids tightly. She
buried her face between them and caressed their hair lovingly.
“We missed you too, Mommy!” Sharon and Connor leaned on Natalie's shoulders, one on each side, and cooed
simultaneously.
Natalie was beaming happily. “I'm really happy!”
“We are also happy to finally see you again!” Connor responded sweetly.
“Yes! I finally get to see you two again! Let me take a good look at you!” Natalie let go of them and took a good
look at them as she caressed their faces.
The kids had been away from her for merely a few days, but for Natalie, that was way too long to be apart from
her precious babies. She could not help but scrutinize them from head to toe, worried about their well-being.
It was a loving reunion, but someone was feeling jealous of being left out.
Ahem!
Shane cleared his throat, hoping to get their attention. However, the three of them were too engrossed with one
another and failed to notice that.
Shane frowned and wondered if he should have faked a louder cough.
Lina was watching the family from afar, and she was amused by Shane's rare display of such childish behavior.
After a while, she could not bear watching his disappointment and decided to give him a hand.
“Enough fussing over the kids, Nat. You had better pay some attention to your hubby too before he gets upset and
starts whining,” she jested.

Shane's face fell upon hearing that, and he threw Lina a cold stare.
Lina was not put off by that. Instead, she put on a cheeky face and teased, “Don't give me that stare, Mr.
Thompson! How else can I get you Nat's attention? Ain't I right, Nat?”
“What? Stop that nonsense!” Natalie was blushing from the teasing, but she took note of it.
She ruffled the kids' hair one more time, stood up, and walked toward Shane.
“I'm sorry, Shane. I didn't mean to neglect you, and I will never do such a thing. I was about to come to you after
greeting the kids. You know how much they mean to me...” Natalie looked Shane in the eye and started apologizing
to him.
“They are my life, the babies that I treasured very much. That doesn't mean I don't treasure you, though. I love
you, and you are just as important to me!” she added.
“I know.” Shane held her by her arms and pulled her into his embrace as he said, “I never compare myself with the
kids. Why would a father fight with his kids?”
