Natalie was so angry that her face turned red. However, Tobias looked calm and did not worry at all.
Selina put down the milk in her hands and stood up.
"Natalie, Tobias is doing this for your own good. He likes you too much and is afraid that you'll run away. Why else would he do this? He's doing this for your sake, so don't be angry," Selina tried to persuade Natalie in a low voice.
Natalie sat down slowly.
She knew that her escape plan would definitely fail.
Tobias looked at Selina and said, "Selina, don't go anywhere today. Stay here and talk to Natalie."
Selina nodded her head and agreed, "Don't worry, Tobias. I'll take care of her."
Tobias took a deep look at Natalie and left.
After Tobias left, Selina sat beside Natalie and continued, "Natalie, I thought about it all night. Although Tobias is impotent, he's one of the most handsome and reputable people you'll ever meet! Don't run away just because he's impotent; he's a good man and you deserve him."
Natalie was tongue-tied.
She looked at Selina speechlessly as she remembered that she had already told Selina that she did not leave because of this.
Tobias was obviously not impotent!
She was extremely tired after the first time they had s*x, so how could he be impotent?
Natalie wanted to explain it to Selina, but she did not know what to say. She also felt that there would be a misunderstanding if she tried to explain it, hence, she did not say anything else.
Selina tried to persuade Natalie but because she was spouting pure nonsense, it made Natalie sleepy.
Selina shook Natalie's arm and said, "Natalie, you are not allowed to run away. Tobias is a good man, so you can't leave him."
Selina repeated it over and over again.
Natalie finally couldn't help but shake her hand off and replied, "Okay, I'm not leaving. Can you stop saying these things in front of me?"
Natalie thought, "Tobias' behavior is not giving me a chance to leave anyway."
Selina smiled sweetly. "That's right, Natalie!
Let's go and have some chips."
Natalie was in no mood to eat potato chips.
When Selina saw that Natalie was absentminded, she tried her best to cheer her up by telling her jokes.
However, no matter how hard she tried, Natalie remained unmoved.
In the end, there was nothing she could do about it.
She did not know what happened between Natalie and Tobias. How did it become like this all of a sudden?
At that moment, the door of the Whitlock family's apartment swung open and Cecilia appeared at the door.
She was dressed in a white dress and she looked as beautiful as a fairy.
Selina jumped up and rushed into Cecilia's arms. "Mom, you're finally here!"
Cecilia patted her shoulder with a smile.
"Look at you. You're still so impudent."
Natalie was stunned when she saw Cecilia.
Why was Cecilia back now?
She stood up and forced a smile. "Mom."
Although she was angry with Tobias, she did not want to vent her anger on Cecilia. Besides, she had always respected and loved Cecilia.
Even in such a situation, she was still willing to address Cecilia as 'Mom'.
"Natalie, did you have a fight with Tobias?" Cecilia smiled gently.
