Chapter 244
Tobias said, "Natalie, I miss you so much. How is it possible that you don't miss me at all?"
He sounded serious.
Thump! Thump!
Natalie's heart rate doubled.
Tobias said that he missed her!
Natalie's lips moved.
She wanted to tell Tobias that she was lying to him. In fact, she missed him a lot.
However, she did not say it out loud.
She wanted to uphold her self-esteem.
Since Tobias refused to say that he loved her, Natalie did not want to let him know how much she loved him either.
At that moment, a loud noise sounded.
"Where are you now?" Natalie asked.
"I just returned to the hotel," Tobias said.
Hotel?
Natalie remembered that Tobias mentioned he was resting at home, so why was he at a hotel?
"Didn't you say that you have a house in the United States?" Natalie asked.
"Yes, but now I'm in Washington, so I'm living in a hotel here."
"Oh, I see."
"How are you doing at home?"
"I'm fine. I have everything I want."
Natalie thought to herself, "I have everything I want, except for you."
"Natalie, you've put on a little weight. Do you know that?" Tobias suddenly asked.
Natalie was stunned.
She had never noticed that.
Everyday since she married Tobias, she ate good food and did not have to work, so it was not a surprise that she had grown fatter.
However, Natalie continued to ask, "How did you know?"
Tobias answered calmly, "I've known this for a long time. When I touched you, you feel chubbier."
Natalie was speechless.
What did he mean by 'when he touched her'? What a b*stard!
Natalie's face turned red and she replied, "I won't let you touch me anymore! You'll only laugh at me!"
When she finished talking, she realized that something was wrong. Wasn't she supposed to scold Tobias when he said something like this?
When she replied to him, it sounded like she was flirting with him.
Natalie really wanted to slap herself across the face.
She thought, "Natalie, you dummy. Why can't you even talk properly?"
"Natalie, you're my wife, so you should let me touch you," Tobias replied in a serious tone.
Natalie's face turned redder and redder.
"You..." Natalie stuttered for a long time.
"Am I wrong, Natalie? Hm?" Tobias asked with a slur.
"I don't want to talk to you anymore. I'm hanging up!" Natalie felt really embarrassed, but she did not know what else to say, hence, she threatened him with hanging up. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
"Natalie, don't hang up. I want to talk to you. I won't tease you anymore," Tobias said immediately.
Natalie's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile.
In fact, she did not want to hang up the call. She was only scaring Tobias.
"How much do you miss me?" Natalie asked.
"As much as you miss me."
Natalie was taken aback.
How did Tobias know that she missed him?
Natalie was a straightforward person, therefore, she asked, "How did you know that I miss you?"
Tobias was silent for a moment before he replied in a low voice, "Natalie, you really miss me."
Natalie blinked repeatedly.
Tobias tricked her again!
He was simply very cunning.
However, since he had seen through her, Natalie had no choice but to admit it.
"Yes, I miss you a lot. Even though there are many handsome men around, none is as handsome as you are. Of course I will miss you!"
"Is that all?"
"Of course!"
"Natalie, you're so stubborn," Tobias said with a hint of helplessness.
"I'm not being stubborn!" Natalie replied firmly.
At that moment, Natalie heard a knock coming through the phone.
"Natalie, I have something to do. I'll talk to you next time."
"Ah, okay."
A busy tone sounded.
Natalie felt disappointed in an instant.
She felt that she had not said enough, but the phone call ended anyway.
"Mr. Whitlock, this is the contract sent by the DH Group. Please have a look at it," Benjamin stood outside the suite and said.
Tobias nodded and took the contract in his hands.
Benjamin hesitated as he stood at the door.
"Mr. Whitlock, Miss Tanner insisted on seeing you. She said that she has to clear up some misunderstanding with you."
Tobias' eyes darkened.
"I don't want to see her," he replied firmly.
"Understood, Mr. Whitlock. Have a good rest," Benjamin said and left.
Tobias closed the door and started reading the documents.
Ever since Tobias called, Natalie felt that time passed slower.
Fortunately, she was busy with her work. She suppressed her thoughts with work.
However, God seemed to be going against Natalie.
In the morning, when Natalie was about to leave for work, she received a call from Yvonne.
Yvonne told Natalie that she did not need to go to work, as the clothing store would be under renovation. Therefore, the store would be closed for a short period of time.
Upon hearing that, Natalie was stunned.
When Aunt Lee heard the news, she advised Natalie to take a good break. However, Natalie could not bring herself to rest.
If she had nothing to do all day, she would only think about Tobias!
Natalie was restless for the whole morning and she could not sit still.
"Miss Godfrey, if you can't sit still, you'd better go out and have some fun, just like Miss Whitlock," Aunt Lee suggested.
Natalie's eyes lit up all of a sudden.
Natalie thought, "Go and have fun? Can I go to the United States and have some fun?"
If she went to the US, would she be able to see Tobias?
She didn't have any other thoughts and didn't want to disturb Tobias' work. She just wanted to see Tobias.
Her thoughts manifested and she could not stop thinking about it.
Natalie was so excited that she could not sit still.
That thought was screaming in her mind.
She wanted to go to the US to see Tobias.
Natalie knew that she should calm down.
After all, not long ago, she had even gotten into a huge argument with Tobias. He refused to say that he loved her, which caused her to be angry and doubtful.
If she showed up in the United States to look for Tobias, it would mean that he had won the battle between them!
In order to calm herself down, Natalie called Yvonne.
Throughout the phone call with Yvonne, Natalie's mind was only on Tobias.
In the end, Natalie couldn't help but reveal her intentions.
