Chapter 851
The corners of Natalie’s mouth twitched and she finally gave up.
She could have finished her shower in thirty minutes, but with Shane’s constant interfering, she only left
the bathroom two hourster.
After she finally finished her shower, Natalie copsed on the bed.
Shane ended up being the one to blow her hair dry for her.
Natalie was so tired that she started dozing off while he dried her long locks.
He looked at her sleeping face with a gaze almost overflowing with his love for her.
After that, he turned off the hairdryer and bent down to kiss Natalie on the forehead lightly. “Goodnight,”
he whispered as he tucked her in.
Natalie’s mouth twitched slightly, as if trying to reply.
Shane chuckled lightly and put the hairdryer away. After he turned off the light, he pulled her into his
embrace.
After breakfast the next day, the family of four went out for a day of fun.
Natalie didn’t need topete that day and Shane was free of work. Coupled with the fact that the two
kids didn’t have school, it was the perfect day to go for a family outing.
The two children wouldn’t stop chattering in their excitement. The car ride was filled with their constant
bickering of where to go.
They finally settled on the first stop, which was feeding pigeons at the Town Square.
Shane frowned slightly at the sound of that, clearly reluctant.
To him, pigeons were incredibly dirty. They pooped everywhere and the floor was always decorated with
all their excrements. In fact, they might evennd a bomb in midair, and with a St, his clothes could be
ruined.
But at the sight of his kids’ excited grins, he didn’t have the heart to say no.
Luckily, things went better than he’d imagined. He managed to steer clear of any pigeon droppings and
didn’t get any “gifts” from them either. Apart from the mildly pungent stench in the air, everything else
was bearable. Shane’s expression slowly brightened after leaving the Town Square.
“Let’s get lunch. The kids are starving,” Natalie said as she gently wiped off the sweat that had formed on
Shane’s forehead.
He nodded in response. “Okay, let’s head off.”
Half an hourter, the family of four arrived at a cozy little restaurant.
There weren’t any booths or private rooms in the restaurant. Instead, they simply had onerge room in
which everyone dined.
Shane chose a table next to the window with an amazing view of the mid-century architecture below.
“What are you in the mood for?” He passed the menu to Natalie.
She passed it over to the kids. “Let the kids pick first. I need to go to the restroom.”
“I’ll miss you,” Shane said teasingly.
Natalie chuckled and walked off.
After her bathroom break, she went back to her table.
However, a familiar face shed into view the moment she stepped into the restaurant.
Jessie?

What is she doing here?
There was another woman at her table. The woman had on arge hat and an elegant ck cape and
dress. Natalie couldn’t make out her features from far away.
Who is that?
She frowned and continued staring at Jessie’s table.
After about ten seconds, both of the women at Jessie’s table got up and went to pay for their food.
Natalie still couldn’t see the other woman’s face.
She didn’t think too much about it and convinced herself that it was just Jessie’s friend.
“Here you go.” Shane passed a ss of milk to Natalie the moment she sat down.
She took it with a smile. “Thanks, Darling.”
“Here. You can order now,” he said as he passed the menu to her as well.
After sipping from her ss, Natalie started ordering her food.
The four of them roamed the mid-century streets after their lunch and bought plenty of things at the mall,
only going back to the vi after the sun started to set.
Sally had been back since afternoon and had been waiting for Natalie.
She quickly got up at the sight of her. “Nat! Mr. Shane! Wee back.”
Shane nodded his head slightly in response.
Natalie looked at Sally. “How’s your headache?”
