Natalie asked cautiously.
"How is that possible?" Selina immediately denied it. "If something had really happened, we would have received the news long ago."
Selina's words reassured Natalie a little.
If something had really happened to Tobias, they would have definitely been updated.
"Natalie, let's sit down first and wait for news about him. Maybe my brother really is preparing a surprise for us, like what you said just now."
Natalie nodded reluctantly.
As time went by, even Peter and Rudopth had arrived as well.
Selina tried to conceal the truth, but as time passed, it couldn't be hidden any longer.
Peter was so angry that he was about to faint from anger. "This is a mess, simply a mess! Tobias isn't here yet, and you still think that everything's alright?!"
His eyes fell on Natalie like a sharp blade. "Don't tell me it's because of you again?"
Last time, Tobias had almost lost his life due to Natalie.
He had never agreed to the marriage between Tobias and Natalie. However, as Tobias insisted on it, as his grandfather, there was nothing he could do at all!
Yet this time, something had happened again!
Natalie bit her lip. "Mr. Whitlock, Tobias will definitely come."
Peter let out a heavy huff.
He looked at Rudopth and said, "You'd better immediately send your subordinates to locate Tobias' whereabouts. I don't want to see Tobias suffer again like last time!"
Rudopth was confused. "What happened to Tobias last time?"
Peter was speechless.
As Rudopth had poor health, Tobias' incident had been kept secret from him since then. Until now, he was still in the dark regarding Tobias' lifethreatening experience.
Peter waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. Just get someone to track him down first. How could he not show up when he's about to get married?"
Rudopth strode out of the room immediately.
Selina patted Peter's chest. "Don't be too worried, Grandpa. What happened last time won't happen again. You know who my brother is. He would never let himself fall into danger again."
"Then where is he now?" Peter gave Selina a grave look.
Selina was at loss for words.
Natalie opened her mouth, "He will come, he definitely will. Maybe he's just preparing a surprise for me."
Peter said disdainfully, "What surprise? It's so late, yet he hasn't arrived! Look at the hall, all the guests have arrived, but where's the groom? What a shame!"
Natalie bit her lip.
Selina gave Natalie a look.
A few moments later, Natalie left the room with Selina.
"Natalie, why don't you take a rest in another room first? I'll persuade my grandfather myself. You know that he'll be angry as long as you're there."
A trace of gloom flashed by Natalie's face.
After a while, she nodded her head.
Selina returned to the room. She deliberately started a conversation with Peter. "By the way, Grandpa, why didn't Remington come? Why is it only you and Dad?"
Peter glared at Selina and said, "Don't you know about the petty issue between Remington and this woman? Why would he come just to upset himself?"
Selina was speechless.
What did he mean by the "petty issue" between Remington and Natalie?!
Nothing had happened at all.
From the beginning to the end, it had only been Remington's own wishful thinking. How could this be misinterpreted as a petty issue between them?
Meanwhile, in the other room, Natalie had been dialing Tobias' number over and over again.
However, every call was to no avail.
It was less than one hour away from the official start of their wedding at twelve o'clock.
