Chapter 38
Cecilia thought that Tobias would develop deep feelings for Natalie. It would be great if he could forget about that person. That person had always been a thorn in Cecilia's heart.
After Cecilia left, Natalie asked Tobias if he was leaving. She did not expect Tobias to say that he would not be leaving anymore.
"I'm worried that my mother will come often after this. I'd better stay here when she's in the country," Tobias explained.
"Let's sleep in our respective rooms." Tobias' words reassured Natalie.
The apartment that Tobias gave Natalie was huge and there were many bedrooms. She did not need to worry about not having enough personal space.
"Let's go down."
"Why are we going downstairs?"
"I'll buy you some underwear." Tobias raised his eyebrows.
Natalie blushed and muttered, "Forget it, I'd better go back and get mine tomorrow."
"Are you planning to stay smelly the whole night? I can't stand it even if you're okay with it."
After pondering for a moment, Natalie followed Tobias downstairs. Both of them changed their clothes before leaving. Natalie changed from her nightdress into the pale blue dress that Cecilia gave her. She had been wearing the same clothes for two consecutive days and they were starting to stink too.
The pale blue dress looked stunning on Natalie. It complimented her fair skin and her legs looked slender.
Her hair was still a little damp and it hung over her shoulders casually. Her hair was a little messy and wavy.
A hint of surprise flashed across Tobias' eyes.
Natalie was gorgeous in the dress. The dress was a little short and made her legs look slender and attractive. There was a hint of innocence on her face but her eyebrows made her look captivating. The alluring dress blended her pure and seductive air perfectly.
Yet, the enchanted look in Tobias' eyes disappeared as soon as they got in the car.
Natalie crossed her legs as soon as she sat in the passenger seat. Her skirt was short so her underwear was showing underneath. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Tobias furrowed his brows and asked, "Can you sit properly?"
Natalie blinked. She always sat like this but Tobias never told her off.
"I always sit like this," Natalie added, "It's comfortable."
"You're comfortable but I'm not!" Tobias snapped coldly.
Natalie was confused. Tobias did not know whether this woman was really stupid or just pretending to be silly. He instructed, "Look down."
Why should she look down? Natalie was at a loss but she followed his instruction.
Natalie almost fainted from embarrassment when she noticed what he meant. She quickly put her legs down and sat properly.
Tobias watched Natalie coolly. He was very smart and he could tell whether Natalie was doing it intentionally or otherwise.
"This woman is really stupid," Tobias thought.
The car arrived at the Boulevard Shopping Mall shortly.
Boulevard Shopping Mall was one of the top luxury shopping malls in Agaphen City. A mere belt there would cost an ordinary citizen one month's salary.
Natalie never imagined to enter such a place.
"I think we shouldn't go to Boulevard Shopping Mall. Why don't we go to a small market? The things there are very affordable and a set of clothes would only cost about fifty dollars," Natalie suggested.
A small market... Tobias' face darkened.
He ignored Natalie and went into the shopping mall. Natalie had no choice but to keep up with him.
Many passersby were staring at them as soon as they entered the mall.
After all, Tobias was handsome and outstanding, so it was natural for Tobias to be the center of attention. However, Natalie felt a little uncomfortable.
Why did she feel like a sheep in wolf's clothing?
