Chapter 232
Natalie was so angry that her face turned red. However, Tobias looked calm and did not worry at all.
Selina put down the milk in her hands and stood up.
"Natalie, Tobias is doing this for your own good. He likes you too much and is afraid that you'll run away. Why else would he do this? He's doing this for your sake, so don't be angry," Selina tried to persuade Natalie in a low voice.
Natalie sat down slowly.
She knew that her escape plan would definitely fail.
Tobias looked at Selina and said, "Selina, don't go anywhere today. Stay here and talk to Natalie."
Selina nodded her head and agreed, "Don't worry, Tobias. I'll take care of her."
Tobias took a deep look at Natalie and left.
After Tobias left, Selina sat beside Natalie and continued, "Natalie, I thought about it all night. Although Tobias is impotent, he's one of the most handsome and reputable people you'll ever meet! Don't run away just because he's impotent; he's a good man and you deserve him."
Natalie was tongue-tied.
She looked at Selina speechlessly as she remembered that she had already told Selina that she did not leave because of this.
Tobias was obviously not impotent!
She was extremely tired after the first time they had s*x, so how could he be impotent?
Natalie wanted to explain it to Selina, but she did not know what to say. She also felt that there would be a misunderstanding if she tried to explain it, hence, she did not say anything else.
Selina tried to persuade Natalie but because she was spouting pure nonsense, it made Natalie sleepy.
Selina shook Natalie's arm and said, "Natalie, you are not allowed to run away. Tobias is a good man, so you can't leave him."
Selina repeated it over and over again.
Natalie finally couldn't help but shake her hand off and replied, "Okay, I'm not leaving. Can you stop saying these things in front of me?"
Natalie thought, "Tobias' behavior is not giving me a chance to leave anyway."
Selina smiled sweetly. "That's right, Natalie!
Let's go and have some chips."
Natalie was in no mood to eat potato chips.
When Selina saw that Natalie was absentminded, she tried her best to cheer her up by telling her jokes.
However, no matter how hard she tried, Natalie remained unmoved.
In the end, there was nothing she could do about it.
She did not know what happened between Natalie and Tobias. How did it become like this all of a sudden?
At that moment, the door of the Whitlock family's apartment swung open and Cecilia appeared at the door. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
She was dressed in a white dress and she looked as beautiful as a fairy.
Selina jumped up and rushed into Cecilia's arms. "Mom, you're finally here!"
Cecilia patted her shoulder with a smile.
"Look at you. You're still so impudent."
Natalie was stunned when she saw Cecilia.
Why was Cecilia back now?
She stood up and forced a smile. "Mom."
Although she was angry with Tobias, she did not want to vent her anger on Cecilia. Besides, she had always respected and loved Cecilia.
Even in such a situation, she was still willing to address Cecilia as 'Mom'.
"Natalie, did you have a fight with Tobias?" Cecilia smiled gently.
Her smile was like the spring breeze, gentle and breathtaking.
Natalie bit her lip and said nothing.
Instead, Selina spoke, "Mom, Natalie thinks that Tobias is bad in bed. Please persuade her or bring Tobias to the hospital to cure it. Natalie must have a good marriage and s*x life in the Whitlock family!"
Natalie's face changed all of a sudden.
It was fine for Selina to joke around with her, but why was she spouting nonsense in front of Cecilia?
It was pure nonsense! Everything she said was not true!
Cecilia looked at Selina and said in a firm tone, "It's none of your business. Go back to your room. You're not allowed to come out unless I call for you."
Although Selina was imprudent, she was still scared when Cecilia was serious.
She curled her lip and said, "I'll go to my bedroom and eat my potato chips."
After that, she went out of Cecilia and Natalie's sight.
Natalie's face turned red and she said, "Mom, what Selina said was not true."
She did not want Cecilia to have a bad impression of her. Moreover, Selina was lying! Cecilia became gentle again as she faced Natalie.
"Natalie, it's a nice day. Why don't you come with me for a walk?" Cecilia looked at Natalie with a smile.
Natalie hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
She accompanied Cecilia down the stairs.
Natalie saw the bodyguards in black whom Tobias had assigned standing downstairs; all of them were tall and scary.
Natalie bit her lips and thought, "Tobias was serious. He asked the bodyguards to keep an eye on me!"
She hated Tobias!
Cecilia glanced at the group of bodyguards and said to one of them who seemed to be the leader, "You can leave now. If Tobias asks about it, just tell him I told you to leave."
Her voice was soft and gentle, but there was an awe-inspiring power in it.
The head of the bodyguards hesitated for a moment.
Cecilia looked at him and said, "What's wrong? Are you questioning me?"
"Yes, Madam." The head of the bodyguards lowered his head and made a gesture to a row of bodyguards. Soon, the group of bodyguards disappeared without a trace.
Natalie trembled.
In her memory, Cecilia had always been so gentle yet domineering; she didn't expect her to be so awe-inspiring too.
"Natalie, let's go. No one will follow us." Cecilia's tone became gentle again.
Natalie nodded. She was confused as she followed Cecilia slowly.
Just like Cecilia had said, the weather was amazing. Gusts of wind caressed her face from time to time, making her feel comfortable.
"Natalie, I know that Selina was talking nonsense. I only allowed Tobias to marry you because both of you had s*x," Cecilia said casually.
Her tone was light, and Natalie was not pressured.
Although Selina told Cecilia that Natalie was still a virgin, Cecilia knew that it was not true.
Natalie's face turned red when she heard what Cecilia said and was reminded of the past.
She didn't know what to say.
Cecilia said, "Natalie, Tobias knows what he's doing. Since he married you, he will be responsible and take good care of you. You don't need to worry."
Natalie's heart suddenly ached.
She wanted more than just responsibility.
What she wanted was more.
Women were greedy when it came to relationships.
