Chapter 157
"I'll only ask you once. Are you going to bring Qasim out?" Tobias was not interested in being polite to Wilson at all.
Wilson's expression tightened, "No!"
Although he knew that Tobias was not an ordinary businessman, Wilson believed that he wouldn't lose if he confronted Tobias head-on.
The night sky was hazy, and the moonlight shone on Tobias.
His cold figure was amplified.
"I'm warning you, if you don't bring him out, I will not hesitate to destroy your military base in order to find him!" Tobias said, with a hint of killing intent in his tone.
Wilson was appalled.
After a while, he looked at Tobias incredulously. "Mr. Whitlock, I know that you are not an ordinary businessman but how arrogant can you be? I am the captain of this military base, how can you..."
Suddenly, a phone rang.
Wilson looked at the caller and his face turned serious immediately. He picked up the call.
His expression changed dramatically after a while.
When he hung up the phone, this attitude had completely changed. He no longer held his head high.
"Mr. Whitlock, this has all been a misunderstanding. It's all my fault," Wilson apologized to Tobias with a smile.
"Are you bringing him out or not?" Tobias's face was as cold as ice.
He didn't have the patience to continue fooling around with Wilson.
"Yes, of course," Wilson said as he ran away in a hurry.
This time, he really couldn't protect his nephew.
A moment later, Mr. Lawson stepped out along with Qasim.
Qasim's arm was wrapped in gauze, and bloodstains could be seen.
"Plop..."
Mr. Lawson had knelt down in front of Tobias.
"Mr. Whitlock, this disappointment doesn’t know how to behave properly. Please spare him, I will do whatever you want, as long as you spare him. I beg you, I have already broken his arm as punishment."
Seeing his father pleading for mercy, and his powerful uncle hopeless as well, Qasim was extremely afraid.
His face was now full of panic.
Qasim didn't expect that the poor girl, Natalie, would have such a powerful backer. If he had known this, he wouldn't dare to mess with her.
In the night, Tobias' voice sounded chilly.
"He almost killed a girl. Do you think I can spare
him?"
Tobias' gaze was that of the devil, waiting to sentence Qasim to his punishment.
Mr. Lawson's breath came to a halt.
Tobias turned to look at Benjamin, "Take him away." "Yes," Benjamin immediately went forward and grabbed Qasim.
It was already three in the morning when Tobias returned to the Whitlock Family's apartment. He was getting ready to go upstairs to his bedroom.
When he passed by Natalie's bedroom, he suddenly heard a faint cry.
He halted in his tracks.
In the bedroom, Natalie was dreaming.
She dreamt that she was back in the dark and humid basement. Qasim gave her a hard slap, and then the rest of the men surrounded her.
Some were trying to take off her clothes, some were trying to kiss her, and some were trying to touch her.
She kicked and bit them fiercely.
However, there were too many of them and she couldn't fight them all.
Someone was about to take off her pants, and she was enveloped in immense fear.
Natalie trembled all over.
She was crying in her sleep. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Tobias, who was standing outside the door, hesitated for a moment before he pushed the door open.
He walked to Natalie's bedside.
Natalie's body was shaking and she let out faint cries.
Obviously, she was having a nightmare.
Tobias leaned over and tried to wipe away the tears on Natalie's face. However, she jolted, then she fiercely pushed away his hand.
"B*stard, don't touch me, or I'll kill you!" Natalie shouted in horror.
She woke herself up.
All she could see was darkness. Natalie suddenly felt a shiver linger down her spine.
She felt so afraid.
During the day, she acted as if nothing had happened, but in the suffocating night, she couldn't escape the thoughts that stemmed from her dark trauma.
Her nightmare, for example, served as a reminder of the hell she deliberately avoided during the day.
Suddenly, Natalie felt a pair of arms wrap around her.
She instantly felt a man's hot breath and scent.
Natalie was startled.
Just now, overwhelmed with fear, she did not notice that Tobias was standing by her bedside.
With the faint moonlight coming in from her window now, she could see Tobias clearly.
"Natalie, don't be afraid." His deep voice sounded in Natalie's ear.
His voice provided her with a sense of security and warmth.
She snuggled into Tobias' arms, treating it as her place to escape from the panic and fear.
Eventually, Tobias climbed into Natalie's bed.
Nothing happened between them.
Tobias merely held Natalie tightly.
There was no lust in his embrace. It was just endless warmth.
In Tobias' arms, Natalie felt extremely reassured.
She wrapped her arms around Tobias' waist and fell asleep.
The next day, Natalie woke up.
"Ah!"
She let out a cry of horror.
She fell asleep in Tobias' arms, with her leg boldly hooked around his waist.
"What, what's going on here?" She thought.
Tobias was awakened by her and opened his eyes.
Tobias' sleepy face was indescribably handsome.
"You, why did you sleep on my bed?" Natalie looked terrified.
Tobias frowned.
"Had this woman forgotten that she was the one who snuggled up to me last night?" He thought.
He turned over, and the next second, he was on top of her.
"Natalie, do you need me to remind you of what happened last night?" The tip of Tobias' nose rubbed against her nose.
Natalie was suppressed by Tobias and her whole body stiffened.
Her mind went blank.
Tobias stared deeply into Natalie's eyes. She did not even dare to breathe.
Bit by bit, she began to recall the events of last night.
She remembered that she seemed to have had a nightmare, and then Tobias appeared in her room and hugged her out of nowhere. She struggled to get into Tobias' arms, and she couldn't remember anything else.
Natalie's eyelashes fluttered, "We, we didn't do anything, did we?"
"What do you think?" Tobias' tone was bland.
Natalie tried her best to search her memory in her mind, but she couldn't think of anything.
She only remembered crawling into his arms, that was it.
After a while, Natalie made a gesture that drove Tobias speechless. She reached out and touched her underwear.
Tobias' eyebrows twitched.
"Natalie, what are you doing?" He was at a loss for words.
After confirming that her underwear was clean, Natalie was completely relieved.
If something had happened between her and Tobias, there would have been some stains. Just like the first time she had s*x with Tobias, there were some stains on her underwear. It took her a long time to wash it off.
This time, her underwear was clean and dry, proving that nothing happened between her and Tobias.
