Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 522

Beside her were another two figures, one older and one younger.

When Natalie’s gaze shifted to their faces, her eyes widened in shock. “It’s them!” she cried out instinctively.

The other two accompanying Mercede, Andre and his daughter Annie, were familiar faces to Natalie. She had previously met them at a wedding Stanley had brought her to, where they were introduced to Natalie as the groom’s family members.

Why are they here now? Natalie was puzzled.

Shane had also recognized the Hills and was likewise slightly taken aback by their presence there. However, he was more practiced at concealing his emotions and wiped off the look of surprise on his face as quickly as it appeared.

Alerted by Natalie’s cry, Mercede and the Hills turned unanimously in Shane and Natalie’s direction.

When Mercede caught sight of Natalie, her dark eyes lit up. Disregarding the two behind her, Mercede extended her arms toward Natalie, exclaiming in delight, “My dear, you’ve finally come to visit! I’ve missed you so much!”

Natalie stood up and ran toward Mercede with equal enthusiasm. The two women embraced and air-kissed each other on both cheeks. “Ms. Mackenzie, I’m back! I’ve missed you too. Happy birthday!”

“Thank you, my dear,” Mercede said earnestly, holding Natalie’s hands tightly.

Obstructed by Mercede’s back, the Hills had yet to catch a glimpse of Natalie. They were, however, immediately confounded by the sight of Shane sitting on the sofa. “Mr. Shane!” Andre hollered.

Andre’s yell startled Natalie, who hastily disentangled herself and said, “Ms. Mackenzie, there’s someone I want to introduce to you.”

Shane paid no heed to the Hills. Affably, he stood up and walked over to Natalie’s side.

When Mercede saw him, her eye lit up instantly, and her lips quivered slightly with emotion.

Natalie was too exuberant to detect any change in Mercede. Gesturing to Shane, she announced, “Ms. Mackenzie, this is my boyfriend. His name is…”

However, before Natalie could finish her sentence, Mercede had already taken a huge step forward and stood face to face with Shane.

Mercede’s abrupt movement had simultaneously exposed Natalie to the Hill’s curious stares, which immediately transformed into gapes.
