Feel the Way You Feel, My Love -
Chapter 1087
Shane's lips curled into a genuine smile upon hearing the compliment.
Just then, his phone rang abruptly.
Natalie responsively retreated from his embrace.
Shane took out the phone and noticed it was from Silas. Without hesitation, he answered the call. "What is it?"
"Mr. Shane, the person in charge of the orphanage just called me and said that a family wanted to adopt Donald." Silas cut to the chase.
Shane narrowed his eyes. "Adopt Donald?"
"That's right." Silas nodded right away.
Natalie looked at Shane confusedly. "Shane, what's going on?"
"A family wants to adopt Donald," Shane responded briefly.
Natalie blinked her eyes in befuddlement. "Adopt? Donald's profile says he has a father. He shouldn't be on the list for adoption. Didn't the orphanage tell the adopting party about that?" Shane asked Silas that question right away.
Silas started explaining, "The director has told the other party about that. But he also mentioned that Donald's father is currently in prison, and his father seems not to be interested in taking care of Donald ever after he gets out. Thus, the director hopes Donald can be adopted. That's why he included the latter's name on the list."
"How did the director know that Warren isn't planning to take care of Donald after he gets out?" Shane furrowed his brows.
Natalie was curious about that too.
Silas let out a long sigh. "A while ago, Donald desperately wanted to see his father, so the director brought him to the prison to visit Warren. The director initially hoped Warren could behave well in there and get out soon to take Donald away, but Warren rejected it. He..."
"Say it!" Shane's patience was running out.
Silas paused for a while and continued, "He said that Susan was dead, and he wouldn't get any of Harrison's property. The court also retracted the car and the house that Susan gave him because they were bought with Harrison's money. So Warren's broke now. He plans to get a new rich wife after getting out, so he considers Donald as a liability and doesn't want to take Donald with him."
Natalie's mouth twitched after she heard Silas' words. "How could he do that?"
She could not wrap her head around how Warren could treat his son so mercilessly.
Back in the hospital, she thought Warren liked Donald, but then she realized that money was more important than family in Warren's eyes.
Indeed. I've never heard him asking about Jasmine as well. Even Susan had asked about Jasmine, but Warren showed no concern at all. I should have known back then that he is a selfish person. It seems that money is the only thing that matters to him. He would not hesitate to trade family for wealth.
"Then what do you think? What should we do with Donald?" Shane asked Natalie.
Natalie rubbed her forehead gently. "Since Warren has no intention of raising him, we might as well let other people adopt him. But the director should tell Donald about what Warren thinks. Then we should let Donald decide for himself, whether he wants to be adopted, or he wants to wait for Warren."
"Okay." Shane nodded slightly upon hearing that.
Just then, something came across Natalie's mind. "By the way, please ask Silas to check the background of the family that wants to adopt Donald. If they are bad people, don't let them adopt him. Even though I have no affection for Donald, as a mother, I wouldn't want to see a kid suffer."
That's the least I could do for Donald.
"You're a kind person." Shane caressed Natalie's hair gently.
Natalie smiled faintly. "So are you. I didn't even think about how to help Donald, but you did."
