In the end, Aunt Lee advised Natalie to go to bed first.
"Miss Godfrey, I don't think you should wait for Mr. Whitlock anymore. He probably has something to do. You should go to bed. You still have to attend class tomorrow morning, after all."
Natalie's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she sighed.
She went to bed obediently.
However, Natalie couldn't fall asleep when she was in bed. She felt that she had a lot of worries and wanted to talk to others.
Of course, it was OK to talk with Yvonne about it, but she only wanted to talk to Tobias.
Time passed little by little, but Natalie still couldn't fall asleep even when it was dawn.
At that time, she suddenly heard some small voices.
Natalie was shocked. Could it be that Tobias had come back?
She got excited, jumped out of bed immediately, and ran downstairs.
Sure enough, Tobias had just returned.
When Natalie reached downstairs, Tobias had just entered the door. The moment he saw Natalie, a trace of surprise flashed across Tobias's eyes.
"It's so late, why haven't you slept?" Tobias asked while staring at her
"I was waiting for you!" Natalie said without hesitation.
"You're waiting for me?" Tobias raised his voice slightly.
Natalie felt that that way of speaking wasn't that good as It seemed to be too ambiguous for a woman to say that she was waiting for a man at night.
"It's not that I deliberately waited for you, but I just couldn't fall asleep. Then I came down when I heard some sounds coming from downstairs," Natalie said with a forced laugh.
Tobias understood everything clearly.
The sound insulation effect of that apartment was very good.
If Natalie hadn't been always paying attention to the movement downstairs, it would have been impossible for her to notice the sound of him entering the door.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Tobias asked flatly.
Natalie said happily, "Do you know? I watched the TV just now, and it had a report about Vannah. The TV also interviewed Yannah's mother-in-law. I didn't expect Yannah's husband to be so bad but yet have reasonable parents. They said that their son did something wrong to Vannah and hoped that the court could judge her as innocent." In stark contrast to Natalie's excitement, Tobias's face was emotionless.
His face was calm and no expression could be seen.
Natalie suddenly felt her enthusiasm drain away.
Surely, chatting needed two parties' cooperation to make it work.
Otherwise, even if she spoke enthusiastically, what was the point if the other party wasn't as enthusiastic as her?
"Uh?" Natalie asked cautiously, "Are you still unhappy?"
Could it be that Tobias was still angry because of what happened the day before?
"No," Tobias answered coldly and his tone was as cold as winter.
Natalie pointed at Tobias's face and said, "You said that you weren't angry, but your face says otherwise. As a man, you keep getting angry at a young woman like me, don't you feel ashamed?"
She said that on purpose to stimulate Tobias, hoping that Tobias would not be angry with her
again.
"You're not young at all," Tobias suddenly said.
Natalie replied with pride, "Who said I'm not young? I'm still young, at least I'm younger than you!"
Tobias's eyes darkened a little, and he said, "I'm not talking about age."
Natalie was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly realized the meaning behind his words. Her face turned red immediately.
However, why would she blush and feel ashamed? That was something she should be proud of.
How many women had to do breast enlargement surgery to have big breasts? But she was born with them. Yes, she should be proud of herself!
"Yes, it's really not small. What? Are you jealous that mine are bigger than yours?" Natalie looked at Tobias and asked.
The corner of his mouth twitched.
