Natalie didn't know why, but her eyes suddenly turned red.
After a moment, she said in a low voice, "Actually, I was in the wrong too."
In the past few days, she had thought everything through. Although Remington was in fact, the one at fault, she had been wrong in a lot of things too.
The truth was, she had already noticed Remington's feelings for her, and she should have avoided coming into contact with him at all. She should have not asked Remington for any help.
It was all because she didn't stop herself in time. Otherwise, things would not have become like this!
"It's was my d*mn grandson's fault. It has nothing to do with you!" Peter's anger resurged when Remington was mentioned.
How could Remington, his grandson, do such a thing?
"Take good care of yourself," Peter said. "That's all, I'll hang up now."
"Goodbye, Mr. Whitlock," Natalie answered.
Peter snorted. "You don't have to keep calling me
Mr. Whitlock. Just call me Grandpa."
As soon as he finished speaking, Peter hung up the phone with a thud.
Meanwhile, Natalie was totally dumbfounded.
A moment later, a gleam flashed through her eyes.
She immediately called Tobias.
"Tobias, did you know? Your grandpa called me a moment ago. He said that I've had it hard, and asked me to take good care of myself. In the end, he told me to call him Grandpa instead of Mr. Whitlock," Natalie blabbered excitedly.
Peter had always disapproved of her. This phone call meant he had already acknowledged Natalie. How could she not be elated?
On the other end of the phone, a light flashed through Tobias' eyes.
"Natalie, you've suffered too, constantly being at odds with Grandpa," Tobias said.
Natalie shook her head with a smile. "No, how could I be angry at someone older than me?"
Speaking of this, Natalie paused. "Tobias, I'm pregnant, and even your grandfather acknowledges me. This is indeed a good start. We'll definitely overcome the challenge we're facing right now, I'm sure of it."
Tobias' voice was firm. "That's right, Natalie. Don't
worry."
After a while, he said apologetically, "It's a pity that I can't be by your side right now."
"It's fine."
Tobias gave Natalie a promise. "Natalie, give me half a month, I will definitely recover and get well within half a month."
"Okay." Natalie's voice was clear.
She believed in Tobias.
If Tobias said that he could solve it and recover, he could definitely do it. Although there was still no news of Remington's whereabouts until now, Natalie still believed in Tobias.
On the contrary, Cecelia and Selina saw this situation differently compared to Natalie and Tobias' optimistic attitude.
Like Natalie, they only found out about the whole truth when Tobias was sent to the hospital.
Cecilia had been constantly comforting Natalie.
As for Selina, she was as mad as a bull.
She didn't expect that Remington would do something this extreme.
However, seeing Natalie still in a good mood every day, Selina calmed down as well.
Despite that, Selina and Cecilia were anxious as ever, since they weren't sure when they would be able to find Remington.
After having their breakfast, Natalie had a serious conversation with Selina.
Natalie told Selina everything that Remington had said to her.
Since this matter was related to Cecilia, Natalie couldn't bring herself to tell her, so she only told Selina.
Selina's eyes were filled with confusion.
After a moment, she suddenly felt bitter.
Although it was a known fact that Remington and Tobias were not on good terms, her relationship with Remington was relatively good, perhaps due to her outgoing personality.
After knowing that Remington had done such a thing, Selina was furious and swore to herself that she would never talk to her brother like that again.
However, at that moment, when she heard Natalie explain everything, she suddenly felt sympathy for him, inexplicably so.
