The corners of Remington's lips curved up, "What happened to having a fair competition?"
Tobias frowned slightly. A moment later, he bent over and got into the car.
The Lamborghini shot off at full speed.
Remington casted a glance at the apartment behind him before getting into his car. • • •
"Natalie, what happened?" Yvonne poured a glass of warm water for Natalie.
She did not look very well.
Natalie had been wanting to talk to Yvonne for a long time.
But Yvonne had been very busy recently. She was either not home or she never picked up any of her calls.
Now that Yvonne had finally returned, Natalie immediately told her everything.
Yvonne caught a piece of information.
Tobias was pursuing Natalie.
Natalie had lost her memory and did not understand. She thought that Tobias being nice to her during their first encounter was because he had an ulterior motive. She even mistakenly thought that there was something wrong with his sexuality.
Yvonne, however, knew the truth.
But she could not figure out what was going through Tobias's mind.
After all, too many things had happened between Natalie and Tobias in the past.
Natalie had mysteriously lost her memory, forgetting everything from her past. To make matters worse, Yvonne did not even know the cause of her amnesia.
"Natalie, do you like the fox- like man?" Yvonne suddenly asked.
Natalie shook her head and said, "I only see him as a friend. I asked him to pretend to be my boyfriend because I wanted the big boss to stop pestering me."
Yvonne let out a sigh of relief.
The man was so handsome he resembled an ageless fox. In ancient times, he would be the kind to wreak havoc on a country and its people. As such, he gave off a sense of unreliability.
"So, do you have any feelings for Mr. Whitlock?"
Yvonne asked again.
Natalie's eyelashes fluttered rapidly.
After a moment, she shook her head and said, "There's something wrong with his sexuality."
Yvonne was no longer the naive little girl from the past. She could see through Natalie's response and actions in an instant.
Not only did Natalie flutter her eyelashes, she did not deny her feelings for him. She had merely said that there was something wrong with Tobias' sexuality.
Even though she had lost her memory, was Natalie's instinctive responses to Tobias still present?
After a while, Yvonne asked tentatively, "Natalie, do you ever get a sense of deja vu whenever you're with Mr. Whitlock?"
Natalie's eyes flashed with confusion, "Sometimes, when I look into his eyes, I feel a sense of familiarity. But it hurts when I try to think about it. It's difficult." Natalie's breathing hitched, "Yvonne, before I lost my memories, did I know Tobias?"
When Natalie mentioned experiencing pain when she thought about her past, Yvonne thought of what Benjamin had said to her. She was a little scared. She was afraid that mentioning Tobias and Natalie's past relationship would trigger
Natalie.
"No, I don't think so." Yvonne quickly changed the topic, "Don't think too much about it now. Everything will work out eventually."
Natalie muttered, "I don't know why the boss even chose me. Do I look like a lesbian or am I that easy to trick?"
Yvonne let out an awkward laugh.
Natalie's mind was like no other.
But she could not blame Natalie.
After all, Tobias was a stranger to her. A man she had never met who was so high and mighty that she could never imagine getting close to him.
When such a man suddenly showed interest in her, it was no wonder that Natalie would overthink.
She comforted Natalie for a while more before going to bed.
After Natalie fell asleep, Yvonne quietly opened the door and left.
She made a call to Benjamin, thanking herself for saving his number.
She wanted to ask him what Tobias was thinking at the moment.
Was he going after Natalie in hopes of getting together again?
Yvonne had never realized how often Benjamin blushes.
After only a few words, the man's face began to turn red.
