Chapter 1338


    She avoided asking about the details of the burial.


    To her, it wasn''t more important than having Shane home.


    Furthermore, she wasn''t interested to know when or where Jacqueline was buried. After all, no one


    would care about their enemy''s funeral.


    “I''ming home now.” Shane checked his watch.


    Natalie smiled. “All right, hurry up. The kids and I are waiting for you to have dinner.”


    “Sure.” Shane nodded with a gentle expression.


    After ending the call, he returned his phone to his pocket and turned toward Jackson. “When do you


    n to bury her?” “Three dayster.” After pondering for a few seconds, Jackson added, “Within the


    next three days, I n to find somece where she belongs.”


    Shane grunted in acknowledgment. “It''s up to you. What about the funeral? Are you holding one? Let


    me give you advance notice that no one will be attending. To those in our circle, the Graham family has


    been bankrupt since ten years ago. Hence, no one wille to the funeral of the daughter of a


    disgraced family. Moreover, many are well aware of her wrongdoings too. Therefore, I hope that you


    would not hold a funeral, for you will be ridiculed for it. More importantly, your parents will suffer the


    same humiliation.”


    Instead of being offended, Jackson just smiled. “Don''t worry. I''m a different person now and well aware


    of the concerns. It had never crossed my mind to hold a funeral for her. To let her leave in peace is a


    good thing too. All right, Shane, that''s it for today. You should head home already as Natalie is getting


    worried.”


    After giving Jackson a slight nod, Shane got into his car without another word.


    Ss, too, sat in the driver''s seat before driving away.


    Jackson just stood there and watch them drive off. It wasn''t until they were out of sight that he left the


    crematorium.


    By the time Shane returned to Thompson vi, it was already eight o''clock.


    Upon hearing the sound of a car, the two children''s ears pricked as they jumped off the sofa at once.


    “Mommy, Daddy is back.”


    “Mommy, let''s go and wee Daddy.” Sharon tugged Natalie''s hand as she headed out.


    Natalie didn''t know whether tough or to cry. “All right, all right, we''re going, so slow down. Don''t run


    or you''ll fall.”


    Despite what she said, the children didn''t heed her advice. Instead, they ended up running faster.


    Left without a choice, Natalie picked up her pace to protect the children from falling down.


    Soon, the three of them arrived outside the vi and coincidentally saw Ss opening the rear


    passenger seat door.


    As Shane alighted from the car, his heart almost melted at the sight of his wife and children.


    He approached them. “Why are you all out here?”


    “Connor and Sharon heard the car approach. When they knew you were back, they dragged me out to


    wee you,” Natalie exined with a smile, as she tousled the children''s hair.

    Shane lowered his gaze at them. “Aren''t you cold? Why do you insist oning out?”


    “It''s not cold.” The children shook their heads in unison.


    As long as their parents were by their side, they were not afraid of the cold even if they were covered in


    snow.


    As Shane watched the children deny being cold despite their frozen cheeks, he couldn''t help but feel


    amused.


    Subsequently, he turned toward Ss, who was standing in front of the car and instructed, “You should


    head home now. I''ll give you the day off tomorrow so that you can spend more time with Sally.”


    Ss'' eyes lit up as he bowed to express his gratitude. “Thank you, Mr. Thompson.”


    Just as he spoke, he hurried into his car and drove off to see Sally.


    “Come, let''s go back into the house.” As Shane held Natalie''s hand on one side, he held Sharon''s on


    the other. As for Natalie, she was holding Connor with her free hand.


    The family of four walking side by side back into their vi made for a harmonious and heart-warming


    sight.


    Obviously, it would have been better if Anders was there with them.


    Therefore, the moment they stepped back in, Natalie asked, “By the way, Shane, Anders is already


    seven months old. Can we bring him home already?”


    She stared at him.


    After giving it some thought, he replied, “I''ll contact them to see what the situation is.”
