Natalie lowered her eyes, she was rather confused.
Is he purposely waiting for me to get in?
But as soon as the idea crossed her mind, Natalie denied it at once.
She shook her head as she found it hilarious. Without giving much thought, she turned around and walked into the room.
It was eight o’clock in the morning. Just as Natalie and the two children finished their breakfast, Shane came over to pick them up.
Natalie pushed the kids to Shane’s side. “Mr. Shane, I’ll leave them to you.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of them.” Shane couldn’t help reaching out his hands to pat their heads gently when he looked at the two little kids.
Natalie crouched down and reminded them seriously, “Connor and Sharon, you both must behave and listen to Mr. Shane. Don’t be naughty, ok?”
“Okay, Mommy!” The two children responded obediently.
Natalie got up and smiled. Then, she watched Shane taking them away.
Soon after they left, Natalie did some simple cleaning at home. Then, she carried her bag and headed to the Design Association for her competition.
It was the semi-final day. The atmosphere became especially tense.
By the time Natalie reached, the other participants were already there.
As soon as she stepped into the conference room, Natalie saw Jasmine at her first sight. She was talking to the others designers.
Jasmine saw Natalie as well. She snorted, “Someone was acting like a prima donna. Despite the fact that she is placed second, she is always the last one to be here. I almost thought she was the winner.”
How could Natalie not know that Jasmine was mocking her? However, she wasn’t mad about it. Instead, she walked over with a smile. “Ms. Jasmine, I guess you must be feeling much better now. You sound so energetic.”
“It’s none of your business!” Jasmine frowned.
Natalie stared at her. “I was just concerned about you. I’m glad to see that you’re recovering well. By the way, I’ve been looking forward to your design concept since yesterday. You were supposed to explain it yesterday. Ms. Jasmine, can you tell us now?”
