Since her daughter and son wanted to stay, Natalie had no choice but to relent.
After thinking for a while, she quickly took out two red caps and placed them over their heads. Then, she made them wear their coats and covered their faces with the collar.
In that case, they would look less noticeable.
“Okay, we’ll join the game. However, we will leave right after getting the prize,” reminded Natalie.
“Hooray! Thank you, Mommy!” Sharon leapt in joy.
Then, Connor followed the middle-aged man to choose the game.
In a private suite on the second floor of the restaurant, a handsome man was peering through the window and watching the event downstairs.
When he spotted Connor, he quickly spun around and patted the man sitting on the sofa with an elegant demeanor. “Shane, come and look who it is!”
Shane turned his head and disdainfully stared at the hand on his shoulder. “Move your hand away!”
Jackson rolled his eyes and pouted. “What’s wrong? I know you dislike women touching you. But you’re not even letting men touch you now?”
Shane ignored him. Instead, he focused on his tablet and scrutinized the economic trends for the first two financial quarters.
When Jackson took a glance at Shane’s tablet and shook his head; the charts and numbers were giving him a headache. He quickly averted his gaze and scoffed, “I don’t know what’s so interesting about that. I’d rather look at the child. He’s the child who looks exactly like you.”
“Huh?” Shane finally reacted to his words.
Jackson pointed at the window and said, “He’s right there. I almost didn’t recognize him because he’s wearing a hat. Luckily, as a medical practitioner, my eyes are sharp.”
Placing the tablet down, Shane walked to the window and glanced over in the direction Jackson was pointing at. Indeed, he spotted the child.
“I bumped into him and his sister outside the washroom. She doesn’t really look like you, but he’s literally your miniature version. When I conducted the paternity test, I really thought that he’s your child. Plus, he even stomped on my feet and ran away. He’s as ruthless as you.”
Jackson glanced at Shane and sighed as if it was a huge pity. “Both of you look so similar, but why isn’t he yours?”
“Shut up!” scolded Shane coldly.
Shrugging, Jackson fell silent.
