Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 695
Connor silently nodded in agreement.
Natalie cast a gentle smile while stroking her kids’ heads. “I’ll bet Daddy’s office looks even cooler.”
“Really?” The children stared starry-eyed at her.
Before she could answer, Silas spoke first. “Madam is correct. World-renowned designers were in charge of setting
up Mr. Shane’s office. You’ll recognize how exquisite his office is from the furniture as well as the fixtures. Right this
way, please.”
With that, he opened the doors to the CEO’s office.
Sharon bounced around with glee as she entered the new space.
Even Connor let go of Natalie’s hand and approached the ceiling-to-floor windows curiously.
The spacious office was suddenly bustling with the children’s excited babbling.
“What do you think, Sharon, Connor? Isn’t Mr. Shane’s office spectacular?” Silas asked. He smiled at the two
children while preparing some tea.
Sharon skipped over to the man and nodded, “Mmm-hmm! It’s absolutely spectacular.”

raised his head while peering down at the bustling world below.
Skyscrapers shot up from the grounds while busy crowds and cars roamed the streets below like variously shaped
insects.
The boy was utterly shocked by the view. It was the kind of shock when a person looked down from tall buildings,
the kind that made their bodies rattle. Unlike most who felt fear from this, Connor’s little body rattled with
excitement.
Natalie assumed that he was afraid of heights. She wanted to usher him away from the window but was frozen
when he suddenly turned around with bright, red cheeks and a wide grin. He said, “Mommy, Is this the view Daddy
sees every day?”
“What?” Natalie replied in a half-daze.
Connor inhaled deeply, suppressing the roaring excitement in his chest. He then held his head high and declared,
“Daddy gets to work at the tippy top while the rest of the world looks up to him from below. It feels like everything is
within his command. Mommy, I want to be like Daddy when I grow up. I want to stand up here, have ultimate
control, and be in power like Daddy!”
Natalie’s lips parted in shock when she heard this.
They were only here to pick up Shane, so she hadn’t expected this visit to spark her son’s ambition.
Even Silas’ eyes nearly fell out of their sockets.
The only person who reacted indifferently was Sharon. A bewildered expression appeared on her little face,
indicating that she didn’t quite understand what had just happened. However, this didn’t bother her as she resumed
chowing down on some chips Silas had prepared.
A crip series of claps reverberated throughout the office. Then a proud voice boomed, “Bravo!”
Everyone looked toward the voice’s source. Their gazes eventually landed on Shane, who had appeared outside the
office door. He was clapping with delight.
Judging from his compliment, Natalie and Silas knew that he must have been standing there for some time. At the
very least, he was there during Connor’s ambitious monologue.
“Daddy!” the two kids called out obediently.
At once, Shane sauntered in whilst smiling intensely at Connor.
Little did anyone know, Shane was initially startled by Connor’s words.
It wasn’t long before the shock he felt turned into growing pride. He couldn’t help but feel pleased to know that the
boy idolized him.
He knew what he felt was illogical; he should’ve been alarmed and disgusted because the boy wasn’t his biological

But he couldn’t bring himself to resent the boy’s admirable ambitions. Rather, he felt great relief as if he had finally
found a worthy successor to his business.
Shane approached Connor, lowering his head to meet the boy’s gaze. “I have no objections to letting you be the
future head of Thompson Group. This company will be yours as long as you show me that you’re capable of running
it.”
His words blew Natalie and Silas’ minds away.
“Shane…” Natalie’s brows furrowed, hinting at the man to take back his words.
Despite this, Shane butted in before she could refuse him. “I know what you’re going to say. And, really, it’s fine.”
Then, his gaze snapped back onto Connor. “Are you capable of inheriting Thompson Group from me?”
Confidence sparkled in Connor’s eyes. “Yes!”
“Good lad. Remember what you just said because Daddy will wait for the day you take over Thompson Group,”
Shane stated as he picked Conner up.
Silas inhaled sharply at that remark. He first looked at the two children, then at a distressed-looking Natalie before
shuddering inwardly.
