Chapter 1265 The Dawn
Shane wrapped his arms around her from behind and nuzzled her earlobe, then asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you like it?”
Natalie nodded. “Of course. It feels good to have such a view of the sea. I only used to fly back, and the view from the plane was very limited. Planes also move much faster. In short, it can’t compare to the view from a cruise ship.”
Chuckling, Shane said, “This cruise ship still doesn’t have a name. As the cruise ship’s owner, why don’t you give it a name?”
“The cruise ship’s owner?” Natalie was momentarily stunned. Then, she turned to face Shane and asked, “You mean me?”
She pointed at herself as she spoke.
Shane nodded. “That’s right. When I bought this cruise ship, I put down your name. So, this cruise ship is yours. It’s a gift from me.”
Her eyes widened, clearly dumbfounded.
“Don’t you like it?” Shane asked as he looked at her.
“No, that’s not it at all! I’m just surprised. I’m surprised at getting such an expensive gift,” Natalie quickly explained with a gulp.
A cruise ship! I never imagined I’d receive a cruise ship as a present!
Shane stroked her hair as he said, “There’s nothing to be surprised about. You have a wealthy husband, so isn’t it only right that I give you such gifts? Besides, I heard that one of my friends bought his wife a cruise ship as a gift, and she went around bragging to everyone. Since you’re the wife of the wealthiest man in the country, how can you not have a cruise ship? If someone else’s wife has one, so should you.”
Natalie did not know whether to laugh or cry at his logic. “Are you trying to compete with others to see who loves their spouses more? I thought only women would do such things, never imagining you would be just like that.”
Natalie laughed. “Does that mean you’ll buy me a plane or a manor next time?”
Shane lifted his chin and declared proudly, “Of course! I can afford them all!”
Leaning into his warm embrace, Natalie replied, “Okay, then. I can’t wait.”
Love was in the air as the couple stood on the deck, murmuring sweet nothings to each other.
Gazing down at her, Shane said, “You still haven’t said what you want to name this cruise ship.”
“Hmm, let me think. Since it’s mine, I should give it a nice name.” Natalie cocked her head slightly to one side, deep in thought. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Shane waited patiently.
After a few minutes, Natalie’s eyes twinkled. “Darling, what do you think if I name the cruise ship The Dawn?”
“Dawn?” Shane arched an eyebrow questioningly.
Natalie nodded. “Yes, dawn. When I saw the lightning rod of this cruise ship from the villa’s third-floor balcony, I knew it was you. At that moment, it felt like I was finally looking at the first rays of hope after an endless night of despair. That’s why I want to name it The Dawn.”
“All right. Let’s name it The Dawn. When we get back, I’ll get someone to put the name on it,” Shane responded with a smile.
“Okay,” Natalie replied with a smile.
“It’s getting late. Let’s get some rest first.” He took her hand and led her back to their cabin.
By the time Natalie awoke, it was already light out.
When Natalie walked to the window and spotted the pier not too far away, her eyes lit up. “Darling! Wake up! Have we arrived?”
Shane was still asleep and only opened his eyes when he heard her voice.
He sat up in bed, pulled on his clothes, and got out of bed. “Let me take a look.”
After looking out the window, he murmured an acknowledgment and said, “Yes, we’ve arrived. The plane that Silas arranged to pick us up is also here.”
“That’s great! I’ll be able to see Connor and Sharon in another three hours,” Natalie exclaimed, clasping her hands together happily. Then, she added a little wistfully, “And Anders too. Oh, I wonder how he is now.”
Now that I think about it, Anders has been in the incubator for a month.
Seeing Natalie’s face fall, Shane hugged her and said, “We’ll go to see Anders after a few days. From what I’ve heard from his doctor, Anders is doing well. We should be able to bring him home after another eight months.”
