"Well-ordered lifestyle?" Selina smirked disdainfully, "He's dating a schoolgirl. She even looks younger than me. He's destroying a young girl's future. How could he do such a thing? What an animal!"
"Oh, no, no," Selina said, changing her words. "He's worse than an animal!"
Aunt Lee was stunned for a long time before she realized what Selina was implying.
She hurriedly defended Tobias, "Miss, you've misunderstood. Natalie is Mr. Whitlock's wife, not some girl he dates for fun."
"Wife?" Selina's eyes widened and she was dumbfounded.
Life was full of coincidences. When Yvonne and Sebastian were eating barbecue and drinking beer at a street food stall, they happened to see Natalie.
Sebastian was usually the type who preferred to stay home and study. He rarely ventured out to a place like this. It was Yvonne who dragged him along.
The last time they went out, Yvonne purposefully made Sebastian drunk. While he was drunk, she asked him if he had a crush on Natalie.
This time, Yvonne had an ulterior motive as well.
She hoped to make him drunk again so that he could formally confess his love to Natalie.
Sebastian had told her that he had hinted to Natalie about his feelings for her.
However, Yvonne felt that Natalie didn't understand his message at all.
That was why Yvonne wanted Sebastian to plan a formal confession, for Natalie to receive his feelings.
Just as Yvonne was thinking about how to get Sebastian to drink more, she suddenly saw Natalie.
Natalie appeared on the street, wandering around in a trance.
She looked as if she had just won the lottery, then lost it immediately after.
"Natalie, Natalie!" Yvonne waved to her desperately.
Sebastian's face turned a little red when he saw Natalie.
Natalie heard someone calling her, thus she looked up and saw Yvonne and Sebastian.
The excitement on Yvonne's face was in stark contrast with her own sadness.
Natalie walked over.
Yvonne pulled Natalie down, "What a coincidence!
Come join us for some food and beer."
After saying that, Yvonne gave Sebastian a wink, "We'd love for you to join us. Isn't that right, Sebastian?"
Sebastian's face flushed redder. He did not dare to meet Natalie's eyes, and he kept his head low.
But how could Natalie notice anything going on with
Sebastian?
When she heard Yvonne mentioning there was beer, her gaze immediately fell on the bottles of beer on the table.
"Let's drink up," she picked up a bottle and poured the beer straight down her throat.
Her throat immediately burned, and her expression became more and more bitter.
She recalled the girl she met at the Whitlock family's apartment.
She was so beautiful and lovely. Was she Tobias' exgirlfriend?
Earlier, she had still been fantasizing about her and Tobias, and now his ex- girlfriend had shown up. What a joke.
Meanwhile, Yvonne gawked at Natalie as she gulped down the entire bottle of beer.
"Natalie, I'm only asking you to drink, not to get drunk," she said weakly.
Natalie ignored her and downed another bottle of beer.
Sebastian watched her anxiously from the side.
