CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1613

The sound of incoming footsteps told Natalie that Shane had entered the room. With Anders in her arms, she turned around and exclaimed, “You're amazing, Anders. You can smile! Darling, did you see it? Anders is smiling!”

Shane walked up to her side and looked down at Anders as he replied softly, “I see it. Anders is smiling indeed.”

“Mommy, Mommy.” Sharon hopped up and down in front of Shane. With a hand raised, she said, “Mommy, I know that Anders can smile too. On the way here earlier, he was already smiling in the car.”

“It's true, Mommy. I saw it too,” Connor added with a nod.

Shane reached out his hand and tapped Anders' face gently with his finger. “The children are telling the truth. When we arrived just now, Anders woke up in my arms and smiled. It got me thinking. He must have known that you're here and made an effort to wake up and smile at you.”

“Is that so? You're the best, Anders. I love you.” The sparkle in Natalie's eyes intensified after she heard Shane and the children's words. She then lowered her head and gave Anders a kiss.

Anders subsequently cooed in chuckle again.

As his tender voice rang out, a warm atmosphere descended upon the room.

Shane proceeded to poke Anders' face again, unable to resist the satisfying sensation he felt from Anders' soft and tender skin.

Thereafter, Shane would poke his son intermittently over the next two days.

Seemingly annoyed by Shane's gesture, Anders resisted by grabbing Shane's index finger.

When his soft and jiggly hands wrapped around Shane's finger, it triggered a sense of curiosity in the latter. At the same time, he also felt his heart melt at the gesture.

“Anders is holding my hand,” the smiling Shane said to Natalie.

Natalie responded with a nod. “That's right. Anders is fond of Daddy. That's why you're holding Daddy's hand, isn't that right?”

Unable to understand what the adults were talking about, Anders blew bubbles in what seemed to be his attempt to coo in acknowledgment. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

The sight caused Natalie and Shane to exchange glances with a smile.

At that moment, the two children gave Natalie's sleeve a tug. “Mommy, Mommy, you're carrying Anders way too high for us to see. Please lower him down.”

“Sharon's right, Mommy,” Connor added.

Natalie flashed a gentle smile. “All right, all right. I'll carry him lower.”

She was naturally delighted to see the two children so fond of their brother.

As long as they liked him, she wouldn't need to worry about any potential conflicts among them.

The reality was that she would inadvertently need to spend more time with Anders than the other two due to his inherently weak constitution.

It was also necessary for her to explain the situation to both of them, hoping to gain their understanding.

Only when they had a clear picture did she not need to worry about them being jealous of Anders over the additional attention he received.

Leaning forward, Natalie lowered Anders so that the two children could see him.

The sight of how adorable their baby brother was brought joyful smiles to both their faces.

“Mommy, Anders is blowing bubbles again. It's so cute,” Sharon remarked as she stroked Anders' face.

Connor nodded in agreement. “I agree. Also, it's wonderful how he doesn't cry or throw a tantrum. One of our neighbor's sons is already two but wails all day and night, which is really annoying. I don't like children who cry all the time. I prefer Anders so much more.”

With that, Connor held Anders' hand to shake.

Natalie replied with a smile, “That's right. It's easy to grow fond of Anders, given how well-behaved he is.”

Shane joined in the conversation. “It's true that Anders seldom cried over the last two days. The only

time he would make a fuss is when he's hungry or needs to poop. Other than that, he would be playing by himself or sleeping in his baby cot. Looking after him is such a pleasure.”
