Natalie felt giddy after that. She could not remember how Tobias brought her back. It seemed that Tobias said goodnight to her too. Then, Natalie entered her bedroom and laid down on her bed giddily.
This was not the first time Tobias kissed her, but Natalie had never felt so giddy.
Was it because of their previous conversation? Was it because she asked Tobias if he liked her? Or was it because she asked him if she had the right to dream? And was Tobias' kiss an affirmative answer?
It was over. Natalie was done for.
Right then, Natalie was sure of one thing.
She, Natalie, had fallen for Tobias!
Originally, she wanted to bury her feelings forever because she knew that she was not worthy of Tobias.
Just as Kimberly said, marriage should be between two people of equal class, and Tobias's partner could only be a rich young lady.
However, the conversation she had with Tobias caused her true feelings to resurface.
What if Tobias also liked her? What if she had the power to dream too?
Tobias told Natalie that everyone had the right to dream.
Natalie put her finger into her mouth and bit it hard. The pain from her finger spread throughout her whole body.
Calm down, Natalie, calm down.
She reminded herself over and over again, but how could she calm down?
She could vaguely feel the kiss on her forehead and the touch of Tobias's cold lips.
Natalie touched her forehead and it was burning hot.
Not only her forehead, but her whole body was burning hot.
Natalie closed her eyes.
She was screwed. She was completely immersed in her fantasies.
That night, Natalie had a dream.
In her dream, she was Cinderella.
At 12 midnight, the pumpkin carriage came to pick her up.
Then, Natalie put on her glass slippers, got in the pumpkin carriage, and went to the palace.
The palace was very big and luxurious. She then saw that Tobias was waiting for her.
Tobias was wearing a white tuxedo. He was so dashing that he outshone the magnificence of the palace.
Natalie gave her hand to Tobias.
Tobias held Natalie's hand and danced.
"Natalie, everyone has the right to dream. Even Cinderella could become a princess." Tobias whispered in Natalie's ear, "My princess, marry me."
Natalie smiled sweetly.
She, because of Tobias, could finally become a princess.
In the Lawson family, Qasim was grounded.
He was very upset.
He went to find his father.
"Dad, I want to go out!" Qasim said to his father.
Mr. Lawson glared at Qasim and said, "What do you mean you want to go out? You offended Natalie, so you'd better keep a low profile and wait until the matter is settled. Otherwise, there will be consequences!"
Qasim's widened his eyes. He had always been domineering in that city. He was always the bully and had never been bullied. However, he was caught off guard by his dad's words.
Qasim spat on the ground and said, "That b*tch Natalie. It’s a shame that I did not kill her then."
Mr. Lawson saw how unremorseful Qasim was and slapped him hard across the face.
Qasim's face was painted with five red marks of his father's fingers.
He covered his face, and his face was twisted with hatred.
