Although Shane's hand didn't hurt, he could vividly feel the baby's strength.

"Of course. How else does it explain the pain that I'm feeling?" Natalie replied while caressing her belly.

Hearing that, Shane gazed at her belly and said affectionately, "Baby, please be gentle from now on and don't hurt Mommy, okay?"

Natalie found it amusing and at the same time she was touched when Shane advised the baby with a stern face.

"All right, Shane. I can bear with the minor pain. Besides, having fetal movement means that our baby is healthy," Natalie said, holding Shane's hand.

"Ae you sure?"

"Yes. And besides, the baby doesn't move all the time."

Hearing that, Shane didn't dwell on the topic. He put the tablet aside, hugged her by her waist, and turned off the light.

The next day, Lina invited Natalie and Sally to a jewelry exhibition as she had gotten a few extra tickets. Lina looked forward to it because a set of jewelry made of obsidian was on display.

Natalie was interested in the event as well. She had seen from the booklet that several haute couture gowns would be exhibited.

Considering that Jacqueline and Sean would act soon, Shane decided to join them at the exhibition to keep Natalie safe.

Deep down, Shane was worried that something would happen to Natalie when he wasn't with her.

Given that their neighborhood was inhabited by prominent figures and had good security, Shane and Natalie thought that it would be safe to keep their children at home.

Moreover, Shane believed that Sean and Jacqueline wouldn't dare to act recklessly in the area unless they wished to irritate the prominent figures.

When they arrived at the exhibition center, Lina and Sally visited the jewelry section while Natalie and Shane went to the gown section.

Natalie was impressed by the designs and styles of the gowns. She couldn't help but take a few pictures with her phone so that she could analyze them with Mercede afterward. Since Mercede was already an expert in design and there was no room for improvement, she had been studying models instead.

Natalie believed that Mercede would be very delighted upon seeing the pictures.

After sorting the pictures, Natalie turned to Shane and said, "Shane, I need to use the restroom."

A pregnant lady had to use the washroom many times every day. Natalie felt irritated sometimes, for she had to do it once every hour on average.

"I'll go with you," Shane said while holding her handbag.

Natalie shook her head in response. "It's okay. The restroom is just behind us. I'll be right back."

With that, she walked toward the back door.

The restroom was empty. After using the toilet, Natalie heard someone calling her name when she came out. "Nat."

That voice...

Shocked, Natalie turned around hurriedly, only to see Sean standing at the end of the hallway. Sean flashed her a wicked smile and greeted, "Nat, it's been a long time!"

"Sean, you really showed up!" Natalie immediately took out her phone to make a call.

However, Sean seemed to have expected it. As soon as Natalie grabbed her phone, he smiled at her again and ran away.

Intuitively, Natalie rushed over and shouted, "Stop running! Stay right there!"

Nonetheless, Sean had no intention of stopping. As Natalie reached the end of the hallway, she saw him enter the elevator. Natalie gritted her teeth and ran toward the elevator. The elevator was rising, and she didn't know when it would stop.

Left with no other choice, she called Shane and said anxiously, "Shane, come here, quick. Sean showed up and is now in the elevator. Hurry up and get some men to chase after him!" "Got it." A cold glint flashed across Shane's eyes when he heard that. Immediately, he gathered his bodyguards and joined in the search for Sean.

However, when they were waiting for the elevator, Shane heard the sound of an approaching helicopter.

Shane pulled a long face and rushed to a nearby office. He stood before the window and saw a helicopter in the air. Sean was stepping on the rope ladder, waving at Shane smugly.
