Tobias was speechless.
After a while, he said, "Natalie, you don't need to do a job like that."
With her level of education, she should be able to find a better job.
"I lost my degree certificate," Natalie said. "I need to go to the United States to get another one done, and I really don't have the time for that now."
She was going to take care of it at the end of the month. That was why she had gotten a random job just to pull through.
"How could your certificate get lost?" Tobias frowned slightly.
"I don't know." Natalie dodged the question.
The truth was, she still remembered how she had lost her certificate that day. Because of Tobias, she had been taken aback. Not only had she failed the interview for the job that Yvonne had gotten for her, she'd even lost all her documentation.
"I'll take you to re-do it now," Tobias said as he stood up.
Doubt flashed across Natalie's eyes. "We'd have to go back to the United States."
"I'll take you back now."
Natalie was speechless.
Before Natalie could figure out what was going on, Tobias brought her aboard a plane in a daze.
Since there were no scheduled flights at the moment, Tobias had directly mobilized his own private jet.
This was Natalie's first time on a private jet.
Not to mention, it turned out to be Benjamin who was piloting it.
Natalie was too shocked.
She didn't expect that Benjamin even knew how to fly a plane.
"Mr. Simpson, I didn't expect that you would know how to fly a plane," she said in surprise.
Benjamin looked a little sheepish. "As Mr. Whitlock's special assistant, one has to be competent in all aspects."
The plane quickly rose to the sky with a loud roar. At noon, a man in uniform brought lunch to them. Natalie was even more shocked. She did not expect for even waiters and food to be prepared on the private jet.
She was just a little puzzled.
Generally speaking, weren't servers on planes usually pretty air stewardesses? Why were there only men on this plane?
She could not help but ask, "Why are there no air stewardesses on your plane?"
Tobias' voice was plain. "What for?"
"Aren't these servers usually pretty young women?"
"I don't like pretty young women," Tobias said, frowning.
Many rich CEOs would station all kinds of young and beautiful flight stewardesses on their private plane to satisfy their own interests, but Tobias was not interested in that.
Natalie said nothing.
Meanwhile, Tobias suddenly came to his senses.
He had said he did not like young and beautiful women.
But he liked Natalie.
Wasn't he implying that Natalie was neither pretty nor young?
Tobias changed his mind and said, "It's not that I don't like all of them."
Natalie still said nothing.
She recalled the meaning of Tobias' words as she
ate.
As she thought about it, she suddenly lost her appetite.
Did Tobias mean that he did not like anyone aside from his young and beautiful new lover?
When the plane landed, Natalie was woken up by Tobias.
Ever since Tobias had said that earlier, Natalie was not in a good mood. In the end, she fell asleep.
After waking up in a daze, Natalie found herself covered with a thick blanket.
It had not been there when she fell asleep.
Natalie could not help but glance at Tobias, his handsome side profile filling her eyes.
It seemed that Tobias had covered her with the blanket.
Right then, it happened to be morning in the United States. Tobias asked Natalie if she wanted to rest first before handling the matter.
Natalie said that she wanted to head to the university straightaway.
