In contrast to Natalie's face, which was as red as a cooked shrimp, Tobias' face remained indifferent this entire time.
With the towel in her hands, Natalie wiped Tobias' body.
Although they were separated by a towel, her hands could feel the warmth of his skin and her palms gradually warmed up as well.
The hot feeling passed through her palm to her brain, and it spread crazily to her brain through her blood.
"Alright, your upper body has been wiped. I don't think there's a need for your bottom half," Natalie said in a very soft and low voice.
"There is a need for that." Tobias looked at Natalie with hidden danger in his eyes.
Natalie gritted her teeth. She reached out to unbuckle his belt.
She shifted her gaze somewhere else and forced herself not to look.
If she continued to look, she was really going to get a nosebleed. If that happened, she would be thoroughly embarrassed.
From the beginning of time, it had always been men who had nosebleeds upon seeing a woman's body, so she did not want to be the first woman to have a nosebleed from seeing a man's body.
"Look at it if you want. Don't be so evasive." Tobias' voice suddenly became a little hoarse.
Natalie was shocked.
"How do you know that I want to look?" She blurted out unconsciously.
When she met his meaningful gaze, Natalie knew that she was tricked by him again.
After wiping his body, Natalie was about to help him buckle his belt.
Suddenly, Tobias pulled her hard and she fell into his embrace.
Before his shirt was buttoned up, Natalie's face fell flat against his muscular chest.
She could clearly hear his heartbeat.
What was more, there was warmth from his skin.
Natalie frantically wanted to leave his chest. The moment she raised her face, she saw his handsome face approaching.
He kissed her lips.
His tongue slid right in and Natalie trembled all over.
Fortunately, due to the injuries on his shoulder, he did not wrap his arms around himself, nor did he hold the back of her head.
Therefore, Natalie was still able to easily push him away.
She could also see her own reflection in his deep, dark eyes. Her face was completely red.
"You, you, don't do it. Your shoulder will bleed again if you do that." Natalie was incoherent.
She could not forget the scene where Tobias lost too much blood and passed out during their intense session back then.
Natalie did not want to see that happen again.
Tobias' lips were close to Natalie's ear. When he spoke, all the heat was sprayed on her earlobe, like feathers gently tickling her ear, bringing a numb feeling to it.
"The reason why I bled was because I used too much strength. If you were on top of me back then, I wouldn't have ended up like that." His voice was low and husky, like the voice of mermaids, which was enchanting and magnetic.
Natalie was speechless.
"In your dreams!" Natalie glared at Tobias.
Then, she helped him put on his clothes. The dim light shone on Tobias, adding a bit of softness and warmth to him. The man reverted to his level of reservation.
When Natalie saw Tobias like this, she felt that him kissing her and teasing her like that just now were all just her own illusion.
After a while, something was sent to Tobias.
It was something Tobias left in the hospital after he left Agaphen City. A nurse found it while she was tidying his ward.
It was a diary that was thick and exquisite.
Natalie's heart skipped a beat.
Wasn't that the diary Winnie gave her?
Back then, she was reading it when Tobias suddenly woke up, so she stuffed it under the bed. She did not expect the nurse to find it, much less send it back to Tobias.
Tobias opened his eyes, then he frowned.
He shut the diary.
"She gave it to you." Tobias glanced at Natalie.
Natalie got nervous.
