Natalie was shocked.
"You read those types of novels too?"
"Of course." Linda nodded, "I like to read novels like this on websites the most."
Natalie's face was full of joy. "Me too, I love reading these books."
The two of them hated the fact that they didn't meet sooner. They chatted so happily.
"To be honest, Natalie, I always thought that these overbearing president novels could only happen in books. In reality, every president I know is bald. When I saw Mr. Whitlock, I realized that, oh my, these novels are real."
"In fact, I think so too. Sometimes when I look at him, I always wonder, how could there be such a handsome man in the world." Natalie laughed along.
"Natalie, is Mr. Whitlock indifferent at home too? Is he one of those people who rarely talks?" "Not quite, I think he's quite warm to me." When Tobias entered the president's office, Natalie and Linda were talking and laughing happily.
Seeing Tobias come in, Linda restrained her smile and quickly sat straight.
Natalie felt a buzz in her mind.
Linda seemed so happy when she was discussing about Tobias, but she got timid as soon as Tobias came in.
"Mr. Whitlock." Linda stood up and informed, "Since you are back, I will go back to work first."
Tobias nodded at her.
Linda immediately rushed out.
"What were you talking about?" Tobias looked at Natalie.
Natalie felt a little embarrassed.
She thought that Tobias was blaming her. Originally, he had asked someone to tutor her in French, but they ended up chatting instead.
"Well, it seems that Linda and I have a lot in common, so we started to chat. You should have gotten me an older tutor. If so, I won't just chat on and on." Natalie answered with a hollow smile.
"You thought I wasn't calling someone over to chat with you?" Tobias said with a meaningful look in his eyes.
Natalie felt stunned.
She turned to Tobias and asked, "So, you're telling me that you've asked Linda over to have a chat with me?"
"What else did you think she was here for?" Tobias retorted in a flat tone.
He naturally knew that Natalie would feel bored in an unfamiliar environment if he was not there.
What's more, even if he asked someone to tutor her, she would not be able to learn for the whole morning.
So, he simply called the human resource department to get a girl who was almost the same age as Natalie.
"Then, why did you say that you would get someone to teach me French?" Natalie's eyes widened.
"If I straight up told you that I asked someone to accompany you, would you still talk to that person?"
Natalie suddenly stopped breathing.
It did not seem to be wrong. If Tobias had told her from the start that he would find someone for her to chat with, then she definitely wouldn't feel so relaxed.
"Tobias, you are really cunning." Natalie really admired him.
"I'm not cunning, This is all for your sake." Tobias looked at Natalie deeply.
"Bang!"
Natalie's heart suddenly beat fast.
She understood Tobias even more now.
He was really not cunning, but he was being thoughtful.
This was because Tobias was really too considerate, that was why he could notice every tiny detail.
"Shall we go for lunch?" Tobias suddenly asked.
It was only then that Natalie realized that she had chatted with Linda for the entire morning. In a blink of an eye, it was time for lunch.
"Shall we go together?"
"Natalie, I still have some things to take care of. I will let Benjamin accompany you."
Natalie showed a regretful look. "All right."
Tobias suddenly pulled Natalie in and gently kissed her forehead. "Natalie, I'm sorry, I can't have lunch with you."
An apologetic tone could be heard from his tone.
Natalie's heart was suddenly moved.
