"How can I not? It's over if someone else from the campus sees me. I'm definitely going to be famous on campus. Hurry up and drive." Natalie patted her chest.
Tobias started the car and thought that Natalie was really different from other women. She was not attention-seeking or vain.
Other women would wish that they could be seen boarding a luxury car to show off but she was an exception.
"Can you stop picking me up after this?" Natalie blinked with a pleading look.
She recalled that Queenie slandered her for living off a sugar daddy in the morning. Everyone would believe that she had a benefactor if someone spotted her with Tobias. She would not be able to clear her name if that ever happened.
"I've told you that we need to be careful before confirming that you're pregnant." Tobias held onto the steering wheel while focusing his gaze on the road ahead.
"But," Natalie bit her finger and continued, "Someone on campus has been saying that I have a sugar daddy. My reputation will be ruined if I'm seen when you pick me up."
A menacing glow appeared in Tobias' eyes. "Who dares to slander you?" "What are you going to do?" Natalie was shocked.
"What do you think?" Tobias' eyes were cold.
"Are you going to hit her?" Natalie whispered.
Tobias was amused by Natalie's question. "You're so funny."
Natalie shook her head and replied, "No, it's not a big deal anyway. I've already made her apologize to

me.
Tobias' handsome face finally relaxed a little when he heard Natalie. It seemed that she was quite capable as she made the offender apologize to her.
Otherwise, Tobias would never let that person off the hook so easily.
Natalie noticed Tobias' silence and she assumed that he was still thinking about how to help her. She hurriedly asked, "You're not thinking of avenging me, are you? I wouldn't have told you about it if I knew you were going to act like this."
Tobias wanted to tease her when he noticed her nervous looks. Tobias answered, "Yeah, I was thinking about that."
"Are you going to tie her up and chop her to pieces? Or are you going to let a group of men toy with her?" Natalie was very nervous.
The corner of Tobias' lips curled. He asked, "Do you want that to happen?"
"Of course not but I've read in some romance novels that the hero would do stuff like that if some bad guys provoked the heroine."
"It seems that you're labeling me as the hero while calling yourself the heroine like in those novels?" Tobias cast her a side-glance with an evil smile on his lips. He added, "Have you thought about some scenes in bed too?"
Natalie blushed and retorted, "Why are you always so horrible?"
After pausing to mull things over, she concluded solemnly, "Anyway, you are not allowed to avenge me like that."
"Back then, weren't you overjoyed when I taught your sister a lesson in the mall?" Tobias asked.
Natalie stuck out her tongue and replied, "Of course, I wanted to let her have a piece of me but I'll be upset if you do something serious like those novels. It's too exaggerated to slaughter her whole family just because she scolded me. There's no way I'll allow that to happen."
"I didn't expect you to be so kind."
"I've always been kind."
Tobias' brows twitched. "Don't worry. We're not living in those novels. It would not be that elaborate. I won't kill anyone just because someone scolded you."
Natalie breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "That's great but real life is sometimes a little similar to the novels."
"What do you mean?" Tobias raised his eyes.
