“Without him, there can still be other doctors. This world is not short of excellent doctors,” Shane said coldly.
Stanley shrugged. “All right. I forgot about your status, Mr. Thompson. Indeed, your status allows you to get the best doctors in the world.”
“So, are you leaving?” Shane looked at him.
Stanley chuckled again. “Of course not, I came here not solely to help you. Most importantly, I'm here to help Natalie. She's my friend, and I can't just stand by and watch her in trouble.”
“Since you said she's your friend, how did you treat her before this, huh?” Shane growled with a gloomy expression as he suddenly became angry and grabbed Stanley's collar.
This man has previously professed his love for Natalie, but as it turns out, that's how his love manifested itself—by kidnapping the child of the person he loves, which leads to the child's involvement in a car accident. After such a huge incident, he became even more reckless instead of feeling remorseful and restraining himself. He even went as far as to burn down the factory of the person he loves and stage his car accident, all just to have that person take care of him so that it could bring them closer together. Ha, such love is truly disgusting. Shouldn't loving someone be about supporting them and seeing them happy? However, Stanley is not like that. His love is clearly the kind that pushes people toward a dead end. Fortunately, Stanley doesn't truly love Natalie. Otherwise, it would have been an insult to the word “love”.
“So that's why.” Stanley looked down. “I was wondering why you're so angry when you see me. Turns out you wanted to settle old scores with me.”
“You almost killed my child. If it weren't for my wife deciding not to pursue it, I would never let you off the hook.” Shane stared at him with murderous intent in his eyes, his voice cold as if it came from the icy depths of hell, sending shivers down one's spine.
However, Stanley showed no signs of change in his emotion as he fearlessly met Shane's gaze. “What happened in the past is indeed my fault, and I have reflected on it. So, it's more accurate to say that I came here this time to atone for my past actions, rather than because I came for Natalie.”
“I hope so.” Shane snorted coldly, and then suddenly pushed him away.
Stanley stumbled back a couple of steps after being pushed by Shane. If it weren't for him quickly grabbing onto the stair railing, he would have almost fallen.
Shane coldly glanced at him for a while. Without paying him any further attention, he then withdrew his gaze and headed up to the third floor.
The upstairs was where his and Natalie's room was located, and no one else was allowed to go up without permission.
Standing rooted to the spot, Stanley watched Shane leave until he disappeared from his sight. He shook his head with an enigmatic smile. “You're truly terrifying, Shane Thompson.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't linger in his original spot. Instead, he turned around and went downstairs.
Natalie sat in the living room, cradling a small baby in her arms. A plump woman stood respectfully behind her, also looking down at the baby in her arms. In her hand, she held a rattle, which she shook gently from time to time. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
In Natalie's arms, the baby heard the sound of the rattle and widened his big, round eyes. Then, he opened his mouth and made some adorable sounds, as if he was trying to talk.
Seeing this, Zaylee said with a smile, “Madam, look, Mr. Anders seems to want to talk now.”
“Yeah.” Natalie looked at her little son in her arms, her face wearing a gentle, loving smile.
She gently wiped the drool from Anders' mouth with a tissue, then gently rocked him while softly saying, “Baby, do you want to say 'Mommy'? Come on, let me teach you. Say 'mom-my'!”
“Madam, Mr. Anders is still too little to learn,” Zaylee said with a smile.
Natalie turned her head and smiled at her. “I know. I'm just trying to amuse the child. I'm aware that it's still too early for Anders to speak. At least not until he's one year old. Moreover, the doctor mentioned that since Anders was born prematurely, her vocal cords' development might be somewhat delayed. So, even after he turns one, he might not necessarily be able to talk.”
“Don't worry, Madam. The doctor said that Mr. Anders is just a late talker, not that he can't talk. He'll catch up eventually,” Zaylee reassured her.
