Chapter 80
Natalie opened the folder and pulled out the DNA test report. As she perused the report, a smile crept across her face and she let out an ironic laugh.
Twenty-six years ago, Harrison had an affair with Susan. Consequently, Jasmine was born half a year before her. Seven years ago, he even kicked her mom and all three children out of the house because of Susan.
Now that Susan had an affair with another man, Harrison got to have a taste of his own medicine. Natalie could not wait to share this piece of news with her mother when she returned to the country.
She slipped the report back into the folder. “Thank you, Mr. Greene. This was helpful.”
“You’re most welcome, Ms. Smith,” Ben replied with a smile.
After she paid him the remaining balance, Natalie left the café and headed to the kindergarten to fetch Connor and Sharon.
Two hours later, Natalie and the kids were about to enter their home when they bumped into Silas who was just leaving Shane’s apartment with a suitcase.
“Hi Mr. Campbell, what are you doing?” Natalie pointed at the suitcase he was carrying. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Silas did not expect to see Natalie here. He simply said, “I was just helping Mr. Shane pack.”
The man could not help but stare at Connor who was standing next to Natalie.
This child is a miniature carbon copy of Mr. Shane.
How could they be Sean’s?
“Packing?” Connor tilted his small head and asked, “Mr. Campbell, is Mr. Shane moving out?”
“Yes.” Silas nodded.
Sharon was rattled. “But Mommy, I like Mr. Shane. Will you ask him to stay please?” She said while tugging at Natalie’s shirt.
“Sharon, don’t be rude!” Natalie pulled her little fingers away and said to Silas, “I’m sorry, Mr. Campbell, that was really embarrassing.”
“It’s alright. It’s actually very sweet of them.” Silas waved his hands.
Silas did not think much of Sean, but he had to admit these kids were pretty darn cute.
“It’s rather late, so I’d better not keep Mr. Shane waiting. Excuse me.” Silas looked at his watch and spoke.
“Sure, goodbye, Mr Campbell,” Natalie said while stepping back, making way for Silas and his luggage.
Silas bade goodbye with the three of them and stepped into the elevator.
Conner looked at Natalie and asked, “Mommy, why is Mr. Shane moving out all of a sudden?”
“Beats me too, Connor,” Natalie said, shaking her head. Gazing at Shane’s closed door, she felt a little empty inside.
Sharon rubbed her eyes, her voice choking with tears. “Mommy, am I not going to see Mr. Shane ever again?”
“What are you talking about, silly one?” Natalie rubbed her nose playfully. “Of course you will see him again. Haven’t you already met him before he moved in here? Come, let’s go home and I’ll cook your favorites!”
The thought of food quickly displaced Sharon’s grief in an instant. She raised her little hand and shouted, “Mommy, I want fish!”
“What about you, Connor?” Natalie pushed open the door.
Connor brushed his chin a little and replied, “I want chicken wings!”
“All right, fish and chicken wings coming right up!” Natalie said while stroking their heads lovingly.
The next day, Natalie came out from the dye room in her what was once a white coat which was now in rainbow colors. She was startled to see Sean standing by the door. ‘Mr. Sean, what are you doing here?”
“Good morning!” Sean smiled and waved at her. “I came here to talk to you.”
“Oh, is everything okay?” Natalie took off her coat and draped it over her arm, wondering what he was here for.
Sean walked toward her and said, “I’ve heard about what happened yesterday. I’m sorry you had to go through that.”
Ah, he’s here to apologize.
Natalie lowered her guard and replied, “It’s all water under the bridge, Mr. Sean. Don’t worry about it.”
“No, no, I feel responsible for causing all the trouble. At least let me make it up to yo
