Moreover, before Remington had started pursuing her, she actually quite admired him.
The man was good looking and spoke eloquently. Natalie had a good time chatting with him when they first met.
Remington smiled and said appreciatively, "You're very straightforward."
He thought that Natalie would babble more words. After all, women were usually hypocritical and they liked to talk a lot of nonsense. He didn't expect her to be so straightforward.
Natalie also smiled, "I'm always frank and straightforward."
She paused for a moment, "But I'm telling you now that since we're just friends, you don't have to see me off to school every day or send me back either. I think that goes beyond the boundaries of friendship."
Remington just ignored her, "The ice cream in your hand is about to melt."
Only then did Natalie realize that her hand was wet.
The ice cream obviously began to melt a lot quicker after being taken out of the box.
Natalie stuffed the entire cone into her mouth.
She was not an elegant eater. Additionally, the ice cream had melted, thus she was practically swallowing it whole at this point.
After she gobbled it down, there was a white stain on the corner of her lips.
Remington subconsciously wanted to wipe away the stain on Natalie's lips with his hand. He stretched out his hand but stopped mid-air.
They were just friends. As friends, he shouldn't act intimately.
He puts down his hand with a smirk, "Natalie, you've got a little something there."
He pointed to the corner of Natalie's mouth.
Only then did Natalie react.
She remembered that she didn't have any tissues with her!
"Do you have any tissue?" She looked at Remington and asked.
Remington shook his head.
After thinking for a moment, Natalie decided to wipe her mouth with her sleeves.
Anyway, she had to wash her clothes daily, so it was fine to wipe her mouth with her sleeve.
Remington gawked at her in astonishment.
The girl smiled awkwardly in front of her gaze.
"You really don't care about your image huh, Natalie," Remington said with his eyebrow raised.
Natalie's smile became even more awkward.
"How does Tobias endure you?" Remington suddenly raised his tone.
"Tobias appreciates me the way I am," Natalie refuted.
Remington's eyelids twitched.
He hadn't seen Tobias for a long time. He didn't expect that his taste had changed so much.
Did Tobias'taste in women change drastically because he was traumatized by that incident?
"How are you and Tobias doing now?" Remington suddenly asked.
His tone didn't sound like he was trying to invade her privacy, but rather he was just asking her casually as a friend.
But Natalie's face fell upon hearing his question.
Remington's gaze shifted when he saw her expression.
"Did you get into a fight?"
Natalie fidgeted with her fingers at a loss.
A moment later, she suddenly glanced at Remington and said in a solemn tone, "Mr. Fox, you said that Tobias had had relations with many women before. Is that true?"
Remington was taken aback.
"When did I say that?"
This time, Natalie was stunned by his reply.
