CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1615

Natalie nodded upon hearing Shane's words. “That's good to know.”

She figured that the doctors wouldn't act irresponsibly out of fear of Shane's wrath.

All that mattered was that Anders was doing fine.

Holding that thought, Natalie emerged from Shane's arms and knelt by the baby cot. She held Anders' hand with her face oozing with maternal love.

As if he could sense the affection exuded by Natalie, Anders reached out to hold her finger.

Even though Natalie's fingers were extremely dainty, Anders was only capable of holding half of it.

Nonetheless, it was already enough for Natalie to feel her eyes burn.

“Anders...” she called out softly before turning to face Shane. “Darling, look at how he's holding my hand. He knows how to grab onto something.”

It was a sign that Anders knew how to control his body, a fact that naturally delighted Natalie.

Kneeling beside them, Shane stroked Anders' face as he replied softly, “Anders must be gifted like Connor.”

“Of course he is. He's my brother, after all.” Connor proudly thrust his chin forward upon hearing those words.

Sharon, too, nodded in agreement. “Anders is amazing!”

Shane and Natalie exchanged smiling glances when they heard the two praise Anders.

The latter's arrival was the best thing to happen to Natalie over the past few months.

Therefore, after she left the break room and returned to the competition venue, she just couldn't stop herself from smiling.

When Lina sensed Natalie's good mood, she couldn't resist rolling her eyes at the latter. “Aren't you overdoing it, Nat? I know that your husband and children are here to cheer for you, but do you really need to keep smiling the entire time? If it wasn't because of your beauty, you really look like a fool.” Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Natalie stroked her own face awkwardly. “Am I really smiling like an idiot?”

“No.” Lina shook her head. “Didn't I just say that your pretty face saved you from looking that way? Anyway, you're smiling so liberally to the extent of leaving your mouth agape. Even when Mr. Thompson and your two children visited previously, you weren't as ecstatic as you are now. What happened? I suppose Mr. Thompson must have given you a really big surprise? Otherwise, why haven't you stopped smiling ever since you left the lounge?” Lina speculated as she stared at Natalie.

As she wasn't in the lounge, Lina had no idea what had happened inside.

In order not to get in the way of Natalie's family reunion, she ate alone at the cafeteria before resting in the break room. It wasn't until the competition was about to resume in the afternoon that she returned to the venue.

By the time she was back, she couldn't resist asking for the reason when she saw her best friend grinning non-stop.

Upon hearing Lina's question, Natalie twirled her hair as she replied, “That's right. Shane did give me a huge surprise. One that I'll never forget for the rest of my life.”

“Oh?” Intrigued, Lina leaned over to ask, “What is it? Tell me quickly. Did Mr. Thompson get you something luxurious?”

Natalie shook her head. “It's indeed something valuable, but luxury isn't the word to describe it. It's my reason for living and a priceless treasure in my heart.”

“What is it?” Lina tilted her head. “Why are you speaking in riddles?”

Reason for living? Priceless treasure? For someone who only cared about designing and nothing else, Lina felt tormented when she was forced to speculate.

Flashing a smile, Natalie saw no reason to hide the fact. “It's Anders.”

“Anders?” Lina was stunned. For a brief moment, it never occurred to her what the name meant.

Nevertheless, she figured it out in no time.

Isn't Anders Nat and Mr. Thompson's third child? The one whom Nat gave birth prematurely at six months—due to the shock of Mr. Thompson's disappearance—and who had to stay in an incubator? I even designed a small pendant of the goddess of love for him.
