Feel the Way You Feel, My Love
Chapter 1388

Noticing how serious she was, Jonathan and Caitlin exchanged glances before letting out helpless sighs in response.

"You can go a head keep the baby since you've made up your mind on the matter.I just hope you'll live up to those words and not end up regretting it in the future,, " Jonathan said.

Joyce nodded confidently.

"I won't regret it!"

I'm an adult now! I know what I'm doing! I didn't just make this decision on a whim. I have thought long and hard before deciding to keep this baby! Caitlin shot her a glance and said, "All right, then. You may keep the child. Just make sure you take good care of him"

"I will! Thanks, Mom! Thanks, Dad!" Joyce replied with tears of joy in her eyes.

Natalie gave her a pat on the head.

"Congratulations, Joyce. You're going to be a mother soon!"

Joyce flashed her a smile.

"Thanks, Nat!"

Natalie then kept her company until it was dark out before Shane came over with the kids to pick her up. On the way back to the hotel, Natalie tugged at Shane's sleeve and said, "Joyce has decided to keep the baby.."

"Just as I had expected"

Shane replied while continuing to swipe at his tablet. Natalie arched an eyebrow at him.

"You anticipated that all along?"

"Kind of. Joyce has loved Stanley for over ten years now, and she never stopped loving him even after he hurt her countless times. Her feelings for him has gone far beyond love.If anything, it's more like an obsession and feelings of indignance. Her unrequited love and efforts are preventing her from moving on, but this baby is the key that will set her free,, " Shane said calmly.

Natalie tilted her head in confusion.

"Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"Like I said, Joyce has become hopelessly obsessed with Stanley because he didn't reciprocate her love. Now that Stanley has provided her with a child, Joyce is able to let go of her obsession toward him.." Shane then put his tablet down as he continued, "This child has allowed her to understand that her efforts over the past ten years weren't in vain. Her love for Stanley may not have blossomed like she wanted, but it did bear fruit.."

"Oh, I get it now! Joyce would still be stuck in that path of obsession if she didn't get anything out of it. Now that she is pregnant with Stanley's child, she feels like her efforts have been reciprocated in a way, so she is able to let go of him!"

Natalie exclaimed.

Shane nodded.

"Yeah, something like that.."

Natalie let out a sigh.

"I suppose that's for the better. At least this child will be living proof of Joyce's love for Stanley"

Shane shot her a glance as he said, "However, she might have a hard time dealing with Stanley later on"

Of course, Natalie knew what he meant.

"Are you implying that Stanley might ask her to abort the baby if he replaces out?"

"That is highly possible. Stanley doesn't love Joyce, so he wouldn't want her to be having his child?"

Shane replied with a nod.

Natalie bit down on her lip.

"Actually, Joyce is aware of that possibility too. But if she has decided to keep the baby, then she probably knows how she'll keep it a secret from him.."

"Is that so? Then I guess we won't have to worry,, "

Shane shifted his gaze back toward his tablet.

Natalie simply nodded and kept quiet after that. He's right. We won't have to worry about her because there's nothing we can do about it anyway.

This counts as a private affair for Joyce, so it wouldn't be appropriate for us to get too involved.

Sure, we can lend her a hand every now and then, but she is the one who has to deal with it.

As they encountered some traffic along the way, it was already midnight by the time they arrived at the hotel.
