The reason why they were similar to the novels could be because Tobias was the CEO of the YS group. On the other hand, she was just an ordinary girl. This cliche setting was popular in Cinderella-like novels.
However, it was still clear to Natalie. She knew that she could not live happily despite being with a man like Tobias.
Due to their different upbringings, it was their destiny to pretend to be a married couple, and that wouldn't last long.
This was their fate!
Most matters in life are predestined, and they were not the masters of their fate.
Tobias twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Natalie, stop reading such novels!"
Natalie was in a quandary.
She knew that Tobias didn't like the kind of novels she was reading, but she couldn't resist the urge to read them and had accidentally revealed this.
Natalie reminded herself to be extra cautious next time.
"Natalie, just because there are rough edges on a diamond, it doesn't mean that it is not a precious diamond." Although this was a compliment, it didn't feel so in Natalie's ears.
Tobias's tone was very calm. However, it was enough to make Natalie's heart skip a beat.
It was still high praise that Tobias described her as a precious diamond.
In Natalie's mind or in the eyes of many people, she was just as ordinary as a dull stone.
"Lie down," Tobias suddenly said.
Natalie was stunned.
Lie down? Why did Tobias suddenly want her to lie down?
She instantly realized that she and Tobias were alone in bed at night and that Tobias might have s*xual desires. Otherwise, why would he want her to lie down on the bed?
"I, I don't want to!" Natalie wasn't giving in to his orders.
Although Tobias was very kind to her and she even had some affection for him, it didn't mean that she could easily sleep with Tobias on the same bed and in such an uncomfortable position!
Tobias knitted his eyebrows. "If you don't lie down, how am I going to help you!"
If this woman didn't lie down, how would he apply the ointment for her?
Since he had already spoken, he could help Natalie apply the ointment without further misunderstandings.
On the other hand, Natalie became more fearful.
God, this man was so despicable. How could he say something like that "I don't want to do it with you!" Natalie widened her big, fearful eyes.
Tobias's eyelids twitched as he understood what this woman was thinking.
This woman usually looked intelligent, but often she could be comically foolish, making herself a laughing stock, especially when she thought she was right.
"Natalie, if you don't lie down, how am I gonna help you?" Tobias deliberately lifted his pitch.
Of course, he could have clarified directly to Natalie. Instead, he wanted to tease her.
The atmosphere was depressing because of Natalie's crying while she talked about her past, hence he thought maybe joking around with Natalie could ease the gloomy atmosphere.
Natalie suddenly became ashen-faced with fear.
She never knew that Tobias could be so shameless to that extent.
It was clear that this titillated man wanted her to satisfy his desires, but he even said that all he wanted was to help her and he even had an awful and unconvincing reason.
God, how shameless was he?
Was it even fair for the CEO of YS group to bully a lady?
"I don't need your help. I don't want it at all." Natalie blushed.
"You don't want it?" There was an implied message in Tobias's raised tone. "Of course, I don't want it! I don't want it at all!" Natalie deliberately emphasized her stand.
