She looked at Yvonne, grabbing her hand after a moment of thought and asked nervously, "Really?"
Yvonne nodded, "Of course, your friend should also take the initiative. As long as the guy has her in his heart, they'll be fine."
Natalie's eyes flashed with hope.
While Yvonne leaned into Natalie's ear and said in a low voice, "Once they reconcile, they can definitely f*ck."
Natalie didn't know what to say.
Sure enough, she was completely speechless.
On that day, Natalie went home early before class was even over.
She wanted to prepare dinner personally as an apology to Tobias.
Aunt Lee was in the kitchen when she saw Natalie return. She was a little surprised and asked, "Miss Godfrey, you are home so early today?"
Natalie nodded and rushed Aunt Lee out of the kitchen.
"Aunt Lee, I'll be making today's dinner."
Aunt Lee instantly understood why Natalie had come back early to make dinner.
Miss Godfrey must have had a fight with her husband, thus she wanted to cheer him up by making dinner personally.
Aunt Lee immediately went out. "Okay, Miss Godfrey, go ahead."
Natalie bustled around the kitchen for about an hour and a half. She stopped to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
Soon, the dining table was filled with delicious dishes.
Recently, Tobias had been coming back early. Natalie assumed that he would be coming home early that day without exception as well.
However, she waited and waited, but Tobias never came back.
She sat at the table in a daze.
"Miss Godfrey, why don't you dig in first?" Seeing that it was getting later, and they didn't know when Tobias would come back, Aunt Lee thought there was no point in sitting around.
Natalie shook her head, 'TH wait for him."
Since she was looking to apologize, she had to show her sincerity. Although by now, her stomach had been rumbling.
Time passed, minute by minute.
There was still no trace of Tobias.
Aunt Lee tried to persuade Natalie to stop waiting, but Natalie still refused.
Since she had decided to wait for Tobias, she had to wait until the end. Even if Tobias came back at midnight, she would wait.
Aunt Lee had no choice but to secretly make a call to Tobias.
After a while, she came back to Natalie.
"Miss Godfrey, you'd better eat first. I just called Mr. Whitlock. He won't be coming back today."
Natalie's heart immediately plummeted to the ground.
Tobias wasn't coming back.
"He's not coming back," Natalie repeated, failing to hide the disappointment on her face.
Aunt Lee also felt distressed to see Natalie in low spirits.
"Miss Godfrey, Mr. Whitlock said he has a lot of work to do, thus he really can't come home to keep you company."
The last sentence was added by Aunt Lee herself.
On the phone, Tobias had never mentioned Natalie.
Natalie forced a smile, "Oh, I see. He must be quite busy."
As the president of YS Group, Tobias must be buried in work. It was reasonable for him to work overtime.
Aunt Lee served a plate of pasta on the table. "Miss Godfrey, please."
Natalie stuffed the food into her mouth in a rush, but she had no appetite at all.
She hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls and went upstairs. She didn't sleep well again that night.
The next day, Yvonne asked Natalie about the aftermath.
Natalie reluctantly said, "My friend cooked dinner for him, but he ended up working overtime. He didn't come back to have dinner."
