Connor snorted as acknowledgment.

“Alright, you go back to your room and have fun.” Natalie patted him on the shoulder.

Connor then went on to hold Sharon’s hand who was eating an apple at the side and left scampering for their room.

Shane didn’t stay for too long upstairs, and very soon, he came down.

Natalie looked at him. “Shane, is Ms. Graham okay?”

“She’s fine.” Shane took her hand and sat down with her.

Natalie heaved a sigh. “I told Connor already, and he’ll not argue with Ms. Graham anymore.”

Shane responded with a brief hum. “I understand that you and the two children don’t really welcome Jacqueline. Don’t worry, she’ll not stay here for too long. Mr. Gunn is aware that Jacqueline has been discharged from the hospital, and he’ll take her in and let her stay there for a while.”

“Mr. Gunn?” Natalie frowned in puzzlement. “Are Ms. Graham and Mr. Gunn related?”

“Mr. Gunn is the maternal grandfather of Jacqueline’s mother,” Shane stroke her wavy soft hair as he explained to her.

 

Natalie nodded. “I see.”
