Natalie poked his forehead with her fingertip and remarked, “You deserve it. See if you dare to take seafood again in the future!”

“It’s Mr. Shane.” Connor pointed at Shane. “He’s the one who let me eat it.”

Shane looked at him with raised eyebrows but in the end, he took the blame. “He’s right. It was me.”
