Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 1173

“Huh?” Joyce blurted in confusion.

Natalie, however, caught what the kid was saying. Her eyes widened as she shifted her gaze to her tiny rascal and asked, “Connor, did you just say that the money belongs to your daddy? D-Does that mean your daddy is Mr. Miller?”

Joyce gasped in astonishment. “No way.”

Connor chuckled and replied, “Mommy, Aunt Joyce, there is no need to be so surprised. The Mr. Miller that you have been talking about is Daddy. Have you forgotten that Grandma’s surname is Miller?”

Those words instantly pointed Natalie in the right direction.

Shane is Mr. Miller! He used his mother’s last name to invest in the company.

“What the f*ck?” Joyce, who had finally put two and two together, exclaimed, slapping her own lap. “So Mr. Shane is Mr. Miller this entire time? Why did he jump through so many hoops and pretend to be someone else?”

Connor crossed his arms and answered, “Naturally, he did it to court Mommy. The two of them weren’t married at that time, and Mommy refused to accept any money from Daddy, so he put on a show. He assumed another identity to help everyone out because he knew you’d refuse his offer otherwise.”

Connor made everything sound so simple, but Natalie and Joyce were shaken to their core.

 

Natalie, especially, was touched.

Her nose was a little runny, and appreciation filled her heart as she said, “That idiot… I can’t believe he kept this secret for so long…”

“That is rather dumb, but it’s also kind of romantic.” Joyce smiled. “It’s like what Connor said. Mr. Shane was still courting you at the time, so the two of you weren’t dating. Yet, he was willing to spend so much money to invest in your company. Only a handful of men are that generous to women whom they are still courting. Mr. Shane seems icy and distant, but he’s a pro when it comes to being romantic.”

Natalie replied in exasperation, “Yeah, I guess that’s true. I didn’t think he’d go to this extent.”

“By the way, Connor, how did you know that Mr. Shane is Mr. Miller?” Joyce asked, crouching down to look at the kid.

Connor chuckled. “I stumbled upon it some time ago, but Daddy wouldn’t allow me to share the news, so I’ve been keeping it to myself.”

“Ah, so you’ve learned how to lie to your own mother now, huh?” Natalie reached out to pinch Connor’s chubby cheek.
