Feel the Way You Feel, My Love

Chapter 1397

So babies are really tiny.

Were Connor and Sharon this tiny when they were babies? His gaze landed on the two kids tipping their toes to catch a glimpse of Anders.

Dr.Holden said, "Mr.and Mrs.Thompson, it's quite unfortunate that your timing isn't the best.Anders is still sleeping.If you come when he's awake, he might be able to see you."

"There are times when Anders is awake?"

Natalie snapped her head in Dr.Holden's direction.

Dr.Holden nodded.

"Of course, but most of the time he's asleep.He wakes up at most five times a day, but he falls asleep quickly due to the medication pumping into him.That's the reason for his continuous slumber"

Guilt gripped Shane's and Natalie's hearts at the mention of medication.

They considered themselves failed parents, delivering the baby when he was only six months old, leaving him with no choice but to stay in the cold box, pumping all kinds of medication into his two- palms- sized body to keep him alive.They failed as parents.It was their fault for the child's condition.

"All right.Let's not overthink."

Shane calmed down faster than Natalie.

Patting Natalie's shoulder lightly, he comforted, "Let's treat him better."

As long as it doesn't push Anders onto the wrong track, they'll give Anders anything he wants.

Natalie said with red eyes, "Okay.We'll treat him better."

That was the only way to relieve some of their guilt.

Time passed by so quickly, and five minutes was up.

Or.Holden glimpsed at his watch.

"Mr.and Mrs.Thompson, we should head out now"

Natalie glanced at Anders, unwilling to leave.

In the end, Shane dragged her out of the room.He understood the risk to Anders if they stayed in the room any longer.

Natalie knew that too, hence letting herself be dragged away.

Otherwise, she would've stood firmly in place.

Once they were out of the nursery, Natalie looked over her shoulder at Anders, sleeping only a few feet away, separated by two layers of glasses.She felt a stabbing pain in her heart at the distance.

Shane snaked his arm around her waist.

"Cry if you want to"

Unable to hold back her tears any longer, Natalie burst into a sob and buried her face in Shane's chest.

Shane lightly caressed her hair, silently comforting her.

Unsure of how long later, Natalie's sob ebbed slowly and fell silent.

Shane peered down to see she had fallen asleep in his arms.

Seeing her frown and wet lashes, Shane exhaled a sigh.The two children pushed themselves onto the balls of their feet and asked, "Daddy, is Mommy asleep?"

"Yeah.She fell asleep from crying, Shane answered softly.

Connor blinked his eyes slowly.

"Let's carry her back to the car."

"Okay."

Shane nodded.

"You guys walk ahead of us."

"Okay" the kids complied and walked in front hand-in-hand.

Shane carried Natalie into his arms and followed behind the kids. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Snape: He knew why Natalie cried.It was her guilt toward Anders.

Anders was born prematurely due to both of them being in an accident.

We, as parents, gave Anders a sickly body, leaving him to the fate of being confined to a chair as he watched other kids enjoy life.

How can we not feel guilty as his parents? It was especially so for Natalie, being the mother.She felt that she didn't take proper care of him and failed as a mother when she delivered him earlier.She'll carry all the faults on her shoulders, so her guilt for Anders weighs heavier than mine.

That was also why she broke down crying earlier.

An hour later, the car stopped in front of Thompson villa.

Hearing the engine of the car, Mrs.Wilson came out of the house to greet them.

Seeing Shane carrying Natalie in his arms, Mrs.Wilson was puzzled.

"Mr.Shane, what's wrong with Madam?"
