Chapter 1616
“Anders?” Lina eximed the moment she grasped the situation.
Meanwhile, many of the designers were chatting in small groups as thepetition had yet to begin.
Lina''s loud response inadvertently caught everyone''s attention.
Cognizant of themotion Lina had caused, Natalie quickly pulled her aside. “Chill, Lina. Chill.”
Lina nodded quickly to indicate her acknowledgment. After taking a deep breath to calm herself down,
she held Natalie''s hands and asked excitedly, “Nat, are you saying that Anders has been discharged
and was brought here by Mr. Thompson?”
Natalie nodded with a smile. “Yes, he left the hospital a few days ago, but Shane and the children hid
the fact from me just so that they could bring him here to surprise me.”
“That''s one hell of a surprise indeed.” Lina continued to hold Natalie''s hands. “Congrattions, Nat.
You finally have Anders back by your side.”
Amidst a burning sensation in her nose, Natalie nodded again. “Thank you, Lina. Over thest few
months, I had been counting down the days till Anders was discharged and returned to my side. And
now, the day I have been waiting for is finally here.”
“Indeed,” Lina remarked.
All this while, she was well aware of how guilty Natalie felt over Anders.
Now that he could leave the hospital, it was a given that Natalie''s mind was put at ease.

“By the way, Natalie, how is Anders doing now?” Lina asked in a worried tone.
As Anders'' godmother, she cared a lot about him and was obliged to keep herself updated on his
condition.
Sensing Lina''s concern, Natalie smiled at her reassuringly. “Anders is doing well. He knows that his
godmother is worried about him and has recovered well so as not to disappoint you.”
“I''m d to hear that.” Lina patted her chest in relief as she broke into a smile. “It''s been a long time
since Ist saw Anders. Thest time was when you showed me the picture of him when you came
here for thepetition. While you had your video calls with Mr. Thompson at night, it wouldn''t have
been practical for him to show us Anders at the hospital. You know, I''ve really missed him a lot.”
“It''s no big deal.” Natalie patted her on the shoulder. “Now that Anders is here and will be staying for a
while, you can get to see him every day. Besides, Anders hasn''t met you, his godmother, yet. You had
better take this opportunity to spend more time with him so that he doesn''t forget who you are next
time.”
“That''s a good idea.” Lina''s eyes lit up in agreement. “Nat, the gifts I have prepared for the children are
in the vi. When we head backter, can I help Anders put on the goddess of love pendant?”
“Of course.” Natalie nodded. “I obviously won''t have any objections to the blessing you intend to give
him. Also, you''re wee to carry him. And you know what? He''s really easy to care for.”
“Really?” Intrigued by the statement, Lina held Natalie''s hands. “Nat, hurry up and tell me how is he
easy to care for? I''ve never taken care of children before, so I really want to know. Who knows, I might
even be able to look after him in the future.”
“Sure.” Natalie nodded. Without keeping her friend in suspense, she rted everything that happened
when she yed with Anders in the room earlier.
Upon hearing Natalie''s description, Lina put her hand to her chest as her face gushed with admiration.
“Oh my, from what you''ve told me, Anders must be really cute. Instead of crying, he has a penchant for
laughing, just like the child of my dreams. I''m in no mood for thepetition anymore. Let''s go and see
him right now.”
Lina''s excitement caused Natalie to shake her head with a grin. “If we weren''t barred from bringing our
phones in, I could''ve shown you pictures of Anders. I took a lot of them just now.”
“Stop talking about it.” With a serious expression, Lina clutched at her chest with one hand and blocked
Natalie with another. “If you continue, I''m worried that I''ll fail to resist my urge to run right out and get
Mr. Thompson to show me Anders.”
