Chapter 875


    Shane came to inquire about the possible side effects of the medicine, so he was naturally leaving after


    getting the answers he wanted.


    Jackson, however, held him back. “Wait a moment, Shane! Can I visit Jacqueline?”


    After Jacqueline was done with the nutrient drip, she was taken back to Graham residence.

    Surprisingly, she didn''t starve herself anymore, perhaps having experienced the agony of passing out


    from hunger.


    At Jackson''s request, Shane regarded him for a long while. In the end, he concurred, “Only half an


    hour every day.”


    “Okay! Thank you, Shane!” Jackson gushed jubntly.


    Although half an hour was brief, he was already satisfied to be able to see Jacqueline.


    She was the woman he loved, after all, so he couldn''t possibly keep away from her when she was


    being kept under lock and guard.


    Right after Shane had left, he took the day off and drove over to visit her.


    In the next few days, he went over right on the dot every day.


    After three visits, he became all out of sorts, seemingly struggling with some decision or other.


    s, Shane had no inkling of that. Right then, he was heading toward Natalie with the two children in


    tow.


    When Natalie was done with thepetition, she went to the airport to pick the three of them up.


    Sally didn''t want to be the third wheel, so she didn''t join her.


    After waiting at the airport for about ten minutes, Natalie caught sight of them exiting from the VIP


    passage.


    “Mommy!” The children instantly dropped Shane''s hand the moment they spotted her and ran over to


    her.


    Crouching, Natalie hugged the children. “I missed you both, my darlings!”


    “We missed you, too, Mommy!” The children echoed affectionately.


    After kissing them both, Natalie stood up. Only then did she look at the man across from her.


    The man strode over. Dropping his hand from the suitcase, he grasped her wrist and pulled her into his


    arms, hugging her tightly.


    Meanwhile, the children stood at the side and watched with grins splitting their faces.


    “Connor, are Daddy and Mommy going to kiss in a while?” Sharon suddenly asked Connor beside her.


    At her question, the corners of Connor''s mouth twitched. “Probably.”


    Just as his words fell, they both saw the two adults kissing.


    Connor hastily covered Sharon''s eyes while also covering his eyes with the other hand.


    “Don''t look, or your eyes are going to be infected!” Sharon was initially chagrined and wanted to pry


    Connor''s hand off, but she immediately went still upon hearing that.


    Shane and Natalie stopped kissing after a few minutes.


    Natalie proceeded to rest against his chest as she panted slightly.


    Shane, on the other hand, caressed her stomach. “Have you experienced any difort in the past


    few days?” Since the child was deformed, it might also cause problems to the mother.


    His utmost worry at the moment was that her health would be affected by the baby.


    “No, I''ve been perfectly fine,” Natalie assured while shaking her head.


    Seeing that she seemed to be telling the truth, Shane nodded in relief. “That''s good. Come, let''s go


    back to the vi first.”


    As he said that, he wheeled the suitcase with a hand and held her hand with the other. Meanwhile,


    Natalie held the children''s hands. The family of four then headed toward the airport''s parking lot.


    Soon, they arrived at the vi.


    Natalie tucked the children in bed so that they could sleep off the jeg.


    Shane, however, didn''t sleep. Instead, he apanied Natalie to the hospital.


    The doctor''s diagnosis remained the same—the baby was deformed—and he proposed an abortion.


    Squeezing Natalie''s hand, Shane signed the surgical consent form.


    The operation was scheduled for an hourter.


    While the hospital made the preparations, Natalie and Shane quietly sat waiting in the corridor outside


    the operating theater.


    “After the operation, I''ll ask thepetition''s organizer to suspend thepetition for half a month and


    resume when you''re fully recovered,” Shane murmured, holding her hand.


    Unexpectedly, Natalie shook her head and declined. “No, it''s okay,” she insisted. “You''ve already


    exercised your investor''s rights once because of the incident back then, so it won''t look good if you do


    it again because of me. Besides, the time frame has been decided ages ago. As such, it''s not


    appropriate to change it at thest minute. It''ll affect your credibility.”


    “But what about your health?” Shane''s brows scrunched together.


    Leaning her head against his shoulder, Natalie chuckled. “It''s okay. I''ll be able to move freely in a few


    days since I''m still early in my pregnancy. I''ll be fine, so don''t worry.”
