Feel the Way You Feel, My Love -
Chapter 336
Connor stopped what he was doing and asked, "What're you doing, Mommy?"
Sharon also looked at Natalie.
Natalie was moved when she saw the concerned faces of her children. "Mommy's fine. I was just lost in thought. Don't worry. Go on and play." She smiled.
Connor studied her face and assumed that nothing terrible had happened. Thus, he dragged Sharon back to the room to play.
Natalie's eyes were full of affection as she watched them return to the room excitedly.
Forget it. If Shane wants to move back to his unit, then let him be. I'll have to work around his schedule to avoid bumping into him. After all, I can't move out just to stay away from him.
Natalie shook her head at that thought. She then changed her shoes and headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
A loud sound was heard around dinner time. It was the sound of a wall smashing. It was extremely noisy and it did not stop until the clock struck ten. However, someone rang the doorbell to Natalie's unit. She instantly knew it who the mysterious person was.
She got up and walked towards the door. She turned on the intercom and saw a figure displayed on the screen. "Hello, Mr. Shane. What do you need at this hour?" She pursed her lips.
"My apartment has undergone renovations earlier today. I hope the noise didn't bother you." Shane knew she was watching through the intercom. He moved slightly to the right, completely exposing himself to the camera.
"It's alright. It's not noisy now." Natalie answered without taking her eyes off him.
Shane's eyes darkened when he realized she was not going to open the door. "Could you kindly open the door? I have something for you," he said.
"What is it?" Natalie frowned and still did not intend to open the door.
Shane pursed his lips and replied, "It's an apology gift for the inconvenience caused."
An apology gift?
Natalie adjusted the camera angle and noticed that he was holding a delicate gift bag. She raised her eyebrows in surprise. "There's no need for that, Mr. Shane. I've accepted your apology. Please return with your gift. It's getting late and I'm going to bed. Good night!"
She turned and headed back to the living room after she said those words.
Shane knew she had turned off the intercom as the red light in the camera had stopped flashing. His face fell as it meant that she had already left.
Wow, I never thought that she means it so seriously. I don't even have a single chance to see her now.
Shane stared at the closed door with sad eyes before returning to his apartment.
Mrs. Wilson stopped mopping the floor when she saw him returning with the bag in hand. "I guessed it was an unsuccessful attempt, sir?"
"She wouldn't open the door," Shane replied as he placed the bag on the coffee table.
Mrs. Wilson glanced at the door and comforted, "It's alright. You've moved here already. Hence, you're bound to meet Ms. Natalie."
Shane hummed in response as he tugged his tie while walking towards his room.
Ms. Wilson was right or else I wouldn't have come back so quickly. I could court Natalie without any worries now that Alice was caught.
However, I didn't admit my feelings for her when she asked me at the cruise. Hence, she wouldn't believe me now if I confessed to her. I can only show her with my actions now.
The next day, Natalie and her children were getting ready to head out after breakfast.
Before Natalie stepped out of her unit, she opened the door and looked at the door across her apartment. She noticed no one was by the door or the hallway. Then, she gently closed the door to her apartment before jogging to the elevator with her children.
"Mommy, why are we running?" Sharon panted.
Connor also looked at Natalie questioningly.
A sense of awkwardness flashed before Natalie's eyes. "Well, Mommy was worried that you'd be late for school." She smiled.
"But there's still so much time." Connor looked at his kiddy watch. His words had instantly exposed Natalie's lie.
She looked elsewhere and replied, "Oh my, Mommy must have gotten it wrong."
Well, I can't say I have to beat Shane's timing only because I am not sure if he's left or not.
