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

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

“That’s enough, Mr. Shane. You don’t need to cover up for him. Don’t I know this rascal enough? He made you bring him to eat that.” Natalie pinched Connor’s cheeks.

Connor stuck out his tongue.
