Chapter 183
Chapter 183
Fortunately, Tobias did not continue to tease Natalie. He threw the "18 Love Skills" into the trash can.
"Selina is getting too preposterous. This is too much even if she is open-minded. I will talk to her when she comes back." Tobias's face darkened when he mentioned Selina.
Natalie let go a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Whitlock, now you finally know how preposterous your sister is. You really need to talk to her," Natalie thought.
"Go to sleep." Tobias held Natalie in his arms again.
Probably because of the book earlier, Natalie could not fall asleep. She wiggled in Tobias's arms and she was arousing him in the process.
"Natalie, you are doing this on purpose, aren't you?" Tobias said, almost gnashing his teeth.
Natalie was stunned, only to find that Tobias' body suddenly had some reaction again.
Natalie wanted to cry but had no tears.
Tobias tightened his arms around Natalie without doing anything.
However, Natalie glanced at Tobias. From how scrunched up his face was and how irritated his throat was, she knew one thing.
This man was very uncomfortable!
He was extremely uncomfortable!
Natalie could not help but ask in a weak voice, "Tobias, do you feel uncomfortable?"
"Duh!" Tobias said in a serious tone.
Natalie's eyes trembled. "Since you are so uncomfortable, why do you still want me to sleep in your arms?"
As long as he did not have her in his arms, this man would not feel so uncomfortable, but why did he insist on doing so?
Tobias's eyebrows moved slightly.
Human emotions were strange and they could not be controlled by rationality.
Just like Tobias. He knew that he could not touch Natalie now, but he still could not help but want to hold her while they slept.
"Go to sleep." Tobias's voice sank. "If you ask again, you'll be just like Selina with the endless questions!"
Selina was already giving him a headache. He did not want Natalie to be like her.
The more Tobias refused to talk to her, the stranger Natalie felt.
And then she remembered a lot of things.
For example, Tobias always teased her, but he never actually wanted her.
Really, if it was not for the first time they slept together, Natalie would really think that Tobias might actually have a problem in that aspect.
"Tobias, why can't you resist touching me every time?" Natalie could not help but blurt out.
She regretted it as soon as she spoke. What did she have to ask?
Tobias said in a cold voice, "Do you really want me to touch you?"
"No, no..." Natalie shook her head hurriedly. "I'm just curious, haha. I'm curious."
"I don't want to harm a blooming flower," Tobias said in a cold tone.
Natalie blinked.
He did not want to harm a blooming flower?
Did it mean that Tobias thought she was still young and naive, and that he did not want to do anything that might hurt her?
"But you've already harmed me once."
Natalie did not forget the first time Tobias slept with her. Her legs trembled even when she got out of bed.
Tobias' big palm that was placed on Natalie's waist suddenly moved upwards. Natalie's body immediately stiffened.
Tobias' lips moved closer to Natalie's ear. He said in a hoarse voice, "Exactly, I hurt you once, so I need to protect you now. When you're fully grown up, then it's time to "harvest" it. It won't take long for us to get a better understanding of it."
Natalie was left speechless.
Why did these words sound so sensual coming from Tobias's mouth?
Natalie's little heart could not stop palpitating.
She could not stop imagining how she and Tobias would have a better understanding of each other.
It was already dawn when Natalie woke up the next day.
As usual, Tobias was gone. As the chairman of the YS Group, Tobias certainly did not spend a lot of time with his woman like how it was in the romance novel. He had a lot of work to do so he always headed to work early every day.
Natalie took a good stretch.
Yes. She and Tobias just went to bed last night. They literally went to bed and slept.
However, Natalie had a bad feeling that Tobias would conquer her sooner or later. Tobias was just waiting for the right time.
But what was he waiting for?
Natalie did not understand.
She stopped herself from thinking about such messy matters. After all, it felt good to be hugged by Tobias every day. It was much better than sleeping alone.
When Natalie went downstairs to have breakfast, she received a phone call.
The phone call was from James.
"Natalie, your mother, and sister have been released. I have already told them. They are not allowed to cause trouble for you." It was obvious from the tone of the man that he was very happy.
He was a man who valued his family. Now that Madison and Queenie were released, he was happy.
While James continued to chat, Natalie was smiling bitterly.
She knew that her father was the typical honest man who dared not say a word with the fierce Madison around.
"Hey, hey! Time to move the bricks. What are you doing talking on the phone?!'' A man's fierce voice suddenly sounded.
"Alright, alright. I'm coming," James obediently replied.
"Natalie, let's end the call here. I need to go back to work." James hurriedly hung up after he was done.
Listening to how busy the other end of the call was, Natalie's heart skipped a beat.
It was still early, and her father had already gone to work at the construction site. Besides, he just took the train back the night before. Did he not need a break?
Over here, Aunt Lee brought a plate of fresh strawberries.
"Miss Godfrey, give them a try. These strawberries just came from Japan this morning. They are very fresh."
Looking at the strawberries, Natalie's eyes turned red. Tears suddenly fell from her eyes.
Aunt Lee was shocked, "Miss Godfrey, are you alright?"
Natalie rubbed her eyes and forced a smile, "I'm okay. My eyes hurt a little all of a sudden."
Aunt Lee did not give it much thought. She took a hot towel and told Natalie to place it over her eyes. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Natalie felt worse as she held the hot towel.
She was living so well in the Whitlock family. She could even have strawberries that were flown over from Japan, but her father had to work at the construction site in that hot summer weather!
How could Natalie live up to her conscience?!
Natalie knew Tobias had a lot of money. As long as she asked, Tobias could provide a good life for her father.
However, she would never do that.
Tobias was already providing so much for her. There was absolutely no reason for him to take care of her father.
She had to help her father on her own!
Natalie decided to look for part-time work.
Natalie gave up the idea of going to the bar because Tobias told her off fiercely the last time.
She found Yvonne and asked if she had any good jobs.
Yvonne had a lot of connections. She immediately told Natalie that there was a hotel that was recruiting young female servers. The salary was particularly high as they were very particular with their requirements in both height and appearance.
The working hours were coincidentally just after her classes.
Natalie immediately wanted this job.
