Chapter 1722 A Second Chance
Stanley looked at Natalie and asked, “Should I say that you're too softhearted?”
Natalie smiled in response. “Yes, I'm softhearted, but at the same time, I don't think
there's anything wrong with that. You saved my sons, my mother, and me. There's a total
of four lives, so I can't truly hate you, blame you, or make you pay the price you should.
However, Stanley, I hope that such incidents won't happen again in the future. Otherwise,
our relationship will truly be ruined.”
“Okay, it won't happen again.” Stanley nodded.
He no longer loved her, so naturally, he wouldn't do things like that anymore.
Natalie could tell that he was telling the truth. Her expression softened, and her smile
became more sincere. “That's good then.”
“Where are Connor and Sharon?” Stanley looked around and then realized that he didn't
see the two kids.
As for Shane, he automatically ignored him.
“You came here to help, so you should know how dangerous the battle between Shane and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSean is. The kids are too young, and Shane doesn't feel at ease having them around.
That's why he sent them to a safe place. In a couple of days, Anders and I will also go
there,” Natalie replied with a smile.
Stanley nodded. “Well, that's how it should be.”
Afterward, he thought of something and asked, “Has Anders been discharged from the
hospital?”
He was aware of Anders' condition.
However, he had been spending all his time with Joyce lately and hadn't been paying
attention to Natalie's affairs.
Thus, he really didn't know if Anders had been discharged.
Natalie happily nodded. “Yes, Anders was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago,
and Shane brought him here instead of going with Connor and Sharon. He's still here, and
he's probably sleeping in the room now. I'll bring him to you later. Since you're Connor and
Sharon's godfather, you're naturally Anders's godfather too.”
Stanley was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly understood and felt a surge of
warmth in his heart. His voice carried a mix of emotions as he said, “After the way I
treated Connor before, you're still willing to let me see Anders and be his godfather?”
Natalie nodded. “Of course. I believe you'll change, so I'm willing to give you a chance.”
Stanley smiled. “I see. I understand now. I'll prove to you that I'm indeed not the same
person I used to be, and I won't let you down.”
Natalie hummed in agreement and called for the housekeeper. “You must be tired from the
long journey. Go and rest in your room for a while. I'll call you when it's time for lunch. By
then, Anders should be awake.”
“All right.” Stanley nodded.
The housekeeper led Stanley upstairs to the guest room on the second floor.
At the staircase on the second floor, Stanley bumped into Lina, who had just finished a
phone call and was coming out of a room.
Upon seeing Lina, Stanley's expression remained unchanged as he brushed past her
without any reaction.
He didn't know Lina, so naturally, there was no reason for him to greet her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe housekeeper behind him greeted Lina and called her Ms. Cohen.
Lina nodded in response, but her gaze remained fixed on Stanley's back.
This must be the j*rk who hurt Joyce!
Lina's eyes flickered as she thought.
Not only does he have a great physical appearance, but he's also a world-renowned
neurologist. No wonder Joyce was head over heels in love with him. What a pity. He's a
scumbag!
Lina withdrew her gaze, let out a hum, and headed downstairs.
Stanley didn't juggle two relationships or engage in flirtatious behavior with other women
while being involved with Joyce, so he may not fit the traditional definition of a scumbag.
However, playing with Joyce's feelings was also scumbag behavior in her eyes.
Thus, calling him a scumbag was not an exaggeration at all. Lina secretly snorted at
Stanley's retreating figure as she held onto the railing and descended the stairs.
Lina came downstairs and saw Natalie sitting on the couch, lost in her thoughts. She
smiled and called out to her, “Nat.”
Natalie's eyes flickered slightly as she returned to her senses. Turning her head toward
Lina, she smiled and asked, “Have you finished talking to Bryan on the phone?”
