Chapter 1730 Changes
“About the cold war, we were both wrong. I never thought about discussing it with you. I
should have talked to you about it earlier, instead of expecting you to figure it out on your
own,” said Shane as he sighed lightly, his heart filled with regret.
Natalie hugged him tightly and said, “It's not your fault. You've been so busy these days,
how can you have the energy to think about all this? As it is, the main reason is that I was
too presumptuous and took things too seriously, insisting on competing with you to see
who would win or lose. I won't do that again. After going through this, I've realized that
sometimes when thinking about things, I need to consider them more deeply and not just
assume that what I think is definitely right. In short, this time, it has also taught me a
lesson.”
“I feel the same way,” said Shane as he looked at her with a serious gaze, “I was just
thinking that you would quickly understand my good intentions, but I never thought that
my indifference would make you overthink things and become even more confused.”
Most importantly, as a man, he actually insisted on having the cold war against her.
Instead of finding a proper way to talk to her and make her understand.
In this regard, he had not done a good job as a man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie and Shane looked at each other, and after a few seconds, they suddenly laughed
and said, “Anyway, we both made mistakes. This cold war has made us realize what we
did wrong. So, can we not do this again in the future? I don't want to have a cold war with
you anymore. It feels terrible, and it really scares me. I'm even worried that if we keep
fighting like this, we'll eventually lose our feelings for each other and become a
disharmonious couple or even hostile toward each other.”
Upon hearing this, Shane's pupils constricted, and he tightened his grip on her hand
considerably. His tone was extremely serious and sincere as he said, “No, we will never
reach that point. Absolutely not.”
Having no feelings for each other?
Becoming a disharmonious couple or even hostile toward each other?
How could he possibly accept such a thing could happen!
Sensing that Shane's emotions were slightly off, Natalie lifted her head from his embrace
and looked at him.
Seeing Shane's tense and gloomy expression, she knew exactly what was going through
his mind.
She lowered her head, burying it in Shane's embrace, and said, “Since neither of us wants
to take it to that level, we need to change some things about ourselves. For example,
during this cold war, one of us couldn't think clearly, while the other was too stubborn to
explain things properly. That's why the cold war has lasted for so long.”
Upon hearing this, Shane knew it was irrefutable.
Natalie hugged Shane's waist tightly and continued, “So, to avoid any future cold wars
between us, we need to work on these shortcomings. If there's any issue, we should try
our best to communicate clearly with each other, instead of hiding it. The more we keep
silent, the more misunderstandings will arise. Eventually, it might cause even bigger
cracks in our relationship, and it might not just be a simple cold war anymore. Shane,
what do you think?”
Shane's Adam apple bobbed before he finally nodded, “Alright, we'll both change our
ways.”
“Alright, We'll change it all!” chimed Natalie as her red lips curved into a smile.
The two of them shared a tender moment on the couch until the housekeeper brought hot
toddy, and only then did they separate from their conjoined state.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShane picked up the hot toddy and gently blew on it. After ensuring the hot toddy wasn't
too hot, he handed it to her and said, “Drink it up.”
Seeing the man's eyes filled with an air of indisputability, Natalie couldn't help but sigh
helplessly. With a bitter expression, she endured the pain, took the hot toddy, and drank it
down,
As Shane watched her finish the hot toddy sip by sip, his face showed a clear satisfied
expression. He then handed the empty bowl to the housekeeper and asked them to take it
away.
Natalie let out a long sigh, her delicate eyebrows tightly furrowed together, and
complained, “The hot toddy tastes terrible.”
“For your own good, you have to drink it even if it tastes bad,” insisted Shane as he
glanced at her.
Afterward, he picked up the glass he had just used to drink water, handed it to her, and
suggested, “Have some plain water to get rid of the taste from your mouth.”
“All right.” Natalie nodded, reaching out to take the glass of water and took a sip.
The plain water diluted the sweet and spicy taste in Natalie's mouth, and her expression
finally improved significantly.
After breathing deeply, she put down the glass and said, “Oh, by the way, Stanley is here.”
