Chapter 176
"We are husband and wife; it's perfectly normal for us to do such things. If she misunderstood, then so be it." Tobias said lightly.
His tone revealed nothing.
Natalie buried her head back into the pillow.
"We are husband and wife; it's perfectly normal for us to do such things."
Why did that sentence make her feel so sheepish?
Tobias was a perfect gentleman when he reapplied Natalie's medicine. He did not tease her, which made Natalie a little surprised.
After he was done, she saw that Tobias' expression was a little heavy.
Natalie became a little uneasy.
Did he think that her hips were ugly?
Natalie sighed heavily. There was nothing she could do about it, because that part of her was indeed ugly. What could she do?
However, even though Natalie tried to comfort herself, she still couldn't help running to the mirror.
She craned her neck to look at her hips, and then she realized something.
The scars on her hips were much lighter, and the skin on her buttocks even started to look soft and supple.
She was overjoyed.
She hurriedly went to find Tobias and blabbered excitedly about how her wounds were almost healed.
However, Tobias' reaction was dull.
"Rest early." After listening to Natalie's excited exclamations, Tobias said lightly.
This completely dumbfounded Natalie.
She recalled an earlier time when Tobias helped her with the medicine. Even back then, when her hips were full of scars, Tobias had felt s*xual desires towards her.
But now, when her hips were getting less ugly, Tobias was so indifferent.
A thought suddenly rushed into Natalie's mind.
Was Tobias actually a sick pervert, hidden under the disguise of a gentleman?
Did he like her hips more when they were ugly and full of scars?
Natalie suddenly felt creeped out. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
The next day, when Natalie woke up, she was almost embarrassed to death by Selina.
Selina kept talking by her ear.
"Natalie, when I gave you that book, you deliberately said that you wouldn't read it. But then you started practicing those very same positions with my brother that evening."
"Natalie, it's easier to get pregnant if he comes in from behind. You guys better do it a few more times."
"Natalie, how did you feel yesterday? Was it different from your usual positions?"
"Natalie, you really are quite open-minded with my brother in bed. I didn't expect that from you."
Natalie was about to break down.
She slammed the milk cup in her hand down on the table heavily, "That's enough!"
Seeing Natalie like this, Selina blinked and pouted. "Natalie, are you mad at me?"
Seeing Selina's aggrieved face, Natalie suddenly felt that she was being too harsh.
She knew that Selina had good intentions, and she just wanted to help her get pregnant sooner.
"No," she said sullenly.
Since Natalie had said that she wasn't mad, Selina continued on with her bombardment of questions.
"Natalie, there are specific positions in the book that are meant for pregnancy. You should try it tonight so that my mom can have a grandchild as soon as possible."
Natalie bit into her slice of toast and fled out of the apartment saying that she had to go to class.
She couldn't endure being around Selina any longer.
Natalie used to think that she was talkative, but compared to Selina, she was no match for her at all.
She did not understand how a calm and reserved man like Tobias could have a sister who was the complete opposite of him.
Just as Natalie rushed to Agaphen University, on the other side, the door of Tobias' office was pushed open.
"Mr. Whitlock," Benjamin stood respectfully in front of him.
"How is it going?" Tobias looked at Benjamin.
Benjamin frowned slightly, "Mr. Whitlock, things are a little tricky. I went to search for the police who investigated Miss Godfrey's case that year and found out that all of them have gone abroad. They are no longer in the city."
Tobias' gaze sank.
Something was off.
An average policeman's salary wasn't even that high. It's believable if only one of them went abroad, but for all of them to go? Something was up.
"Bring them back," Tobias said directly.
Benjamin was a little hesitant. "Mr. Whitlock, now that they are all abroad, it won't be easy to find them."
"Bring all of them back. I don't care how." Tobias glanced at Benjamin, his eyes filled with fierce determination.
Benjamin swallowed back everything he wanted to say.
"Yes," he replied.
After Benjamin had left, Tobias' eyebrows furrowed deeply.
Natalie's matter was much more complicated and difficult than he had imagined.
What on earth happened to her back then?
At Agaphen University, Natalie had just gotten a new SIM card, and she immediately gave her new number to Yvonne and Sebastian.
Sebastian's reaction was a little slow.
Meanwhile, Yvonne instantly noticed Natalie's new phone.
Fortunately, the phone that Selina chose for Natalie was very cute but it didn't look luxurious. Yvonne couldn't tell how much it cost.
"It's so cute. Natalie, why did you change your phone again?" Yvonne couldn't help admiring her phone.
"Yes, it is cute." Natalie gave a hollow laugh.
"By the way, where did you go that day?" Yvonne asked again.
When they met Natalie on the street the other day, Natalie merely fooled around and left without giving them any details.
"I went to have a walk," she laughed dryly.
Yvonne widened her eyes, "You went to have a walk whilst drunk?"
Natalie just smiled.
Why did she feel like Yvonne was getting more alike to Selina? Both of them had endless questions.
"Yes, can't I?" Natalie widened her eyes.
"Natalie, aren't you afraid of walking alone when you're drunk? You might get r*ped," Yvonne was speechless.
R*ped...
Natalie's imagination started to wander off again. Was Tobias trying to take advantage of her that night before Selina interrupted them?
He even carried her to the dresser, saying that they were in that exact position, and her legs were against Tobias...
Natalie's face flushed red immediately.
She was really becoming more and more lascivious.
Yvonne widened her eyes in surprise.
She had just asked Natalie if she was afraid of getting r*ped, but instead of feeling scared, Natalie started to blush.
What- what the hell was going on with Natalie...
"Natalie, why don't we visit a psychiatrist this weekend?" Yvonne asked cautiously.
Natalie looked at her speechlessly. "You can go by yourself. There is nothing wrong with me."
Yvonne sighed in her heart.
During their class break, Sebastian gave Natalie some chocolates.
Natalie gobbled them down happily. Suddenly, she realized something.
