Although she was not someone who liked to dress up, she had never been unkempt like this.
Yvonne's voice grew louder. "Natalie, if Tobias were to come back and see you like this, he might be scared to death by you. Are you going to welcome Tobias like this?"
"Look at what you look like now! You look sloppy, nothing like a girl in her twenties!"
"If you go on like this, your worrying and lack of self- care will only make you age faster. When Tobias comes back, he might confuse you for his own mother. Don't tell me that's what you want?!"
"Natalie, a man like Tobias needs an equally outstanding woman to match him. If you really love him, from now on, you need to change and become an outstanding person as well. When Tobias comes back and sees a completely new you, this will be the best reward for him!"
Natalie shuddered.
Yvonne turned Natalie around and forced Natalie to look at her.
"Natalie, promise me that you will cheer up from now on. Since you're saying that Tobias isn't dead, then let's wait for him to come back. Be an outstanding person, and wait for him to come back!"
Yvonne stared into Natalie's eyes. "Natalie, promise me, okay?"
Natalie seemed to have been greatly moved. The look in her eyes constantly changed.
After a long time, Natalie took a deep breath.
She looked into Yvonne's eyes seriously. "Yvonne, you're right. I have to wait for him to come back, and I have to make sure that I'm perfect, both inside and outside, when he's back!"
Benjamin felt that Yvonne was a very charming woman.
Earlier, he was completely at a loss about what to do with Natalie.
But as soon as Yvonne came, everything was taken care of.
Now, Natalie was improving.
She didn't look at the walls listlessly anymore, and she didn't starve herself. She no longer spoke to herself as well.
She gradually became like a normal person.
Even her gaze wasn't as dazed as before. She started becoming more and more confident.
Three days later, Natalie was discharged from the hospital.
Natalie asked Yvonne to go back.
Yvonne thought for a moment, then said, "Forget it, I'll stay with you for the time being. It's been a while since I've stayed at our apartment anyway."
Natalie shook her head. "Yvonne, I'm fine now. You're a celebrity now, you must be busy with your own things. You don't have to spend time with me."
Yvonne forced a smile.
Ever since she had looked through the photos of a certain someone's ex-girlfriend, their relationship had ended.
Naturally, things wouldn't have been as bad as they were now. However, Yvonne had done something else in the heat of the moment.
In the end, Jenkins had stopped all of Yvonne's work.
Yvonne didn't have any other matters to attend to right now, so she might as well accompany Natalie.
"I still have a few days," Yvonne said. "I'll stay with you for these few days."
Seeing Yvonne's insistence, Natalie did not say anything else.
In the afternoon, Natalie told Yvonne that she was going to the Whitlock family villa.
Yvonne knew that Hayden was still there, so she ought to go and take a look.
"Do you want me to go with you?" Yvonne asked.
"I'll go by myself. It's okay, don't worry."
Natalie took a taxi to the Whitlock family villa.
This time, she was going not only because of Hayden, but also because of Cecilia.
Cecilia should know about what had happened to Tobias.
She had to apologise to Cecilia.
After all, if not for her, such a thing would not have happened.
