Shane nodded and said, “That's right. There will be others who will ask about how long we've been married. We can't lie every time, right?”

Natalie's lips moved, but she couldn't find the right words to say.

Shane stepped forward and got close to her again. He pointed out, “Our lies will be exposed sooner or later, and there are people out there who already know that I am the kids' dad. Those same people know that we're together as well, and they will think less of the kids and regard them as b*stards if our lies got exposed one day.”

Natalie was stumped when she heard that.

He's right. Many already knew that Shane is their father. That is especially true for our neighbors and the people we know from kindergarten. If they discover that Shane and I aren't married, they might assume that I am scheming to marry into a rich family. I mean, letting the kids call him Daddy before we're married... that does sound eager...

Shane could tell what Natalie was thinking when he saw how her eyes glowed. He reached out to part her hair before saying, “That is why it is the best option for us getting married. Wouldn't you say so?”

Natalie couldn't refute his words. She took a deep breath and said, “Shane, I still think that this is moving too quickly. I love you, but we just started seeing each other, and I'm not ready to get married that quickly. Please let me think about it.”

After saying her piece, she shifted her gaze downward.

Shane was disappointed that she didn't say yes, but he was so quick to hide the disappointment away that no one could notice.
