Chapter 247
"Don't you understand, Natalie? Whatever. If you suffer when you wake up from your dream, why don't you just stay in the dream?" Remington said with his thoughtful eyes.
There was growing doubt in Natalie's eyes.
Why did she feel Remington was kind of mysterious? She didn't even know what he was talking about.
"Miss Godfrey, we will board soon," said Benjamin. Just as Natalie was about to ask Remington what he really meant, Benjamin hurried over and interrupted.
He saw Remington.
"Mr. Remington," Benjamin greeted him politely. He seemed distant.
Remington smiled gently, but he gazed at Natalie and said, "Natalie, let's board the plane and go on with your lovely dream. I wish you will never wake up from it."
Natalie's eyelashes trembled.
She didn't know why, but her happiness and excitement suddenly turned into mixed feelings due to what Remington said.
She didn't even notice that Remington kept staring at her after she left, and the stare in his eyes was becoming unreadable. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
"Miss Godfrey, did Mr. Remington tell you something?" Benjamin said. He observed that Natalie was acting weirdly after boarding the plane.
Natalie forced a smile and said, "He didn't say anything to me. He just said something strange."
Natalie couldn't figure out what those words meant.
Benjamin comforted Natalie and said, "Miss Godfrey, Mr. Remington has always been like this. He is cynical and unreliable, so don't be bothered by the things he says."
"Is that so?" Natalie looked at Benjamin.
Benjamin nodded and replied, "Yes."
Benjamin's words brightened Natalie's mood instantly. She thought that maybe he was right. Remington was just joking with her. His words did not mean what she imagined them to.
Once she felt better, she started to engage in gossip.
"Benjamin, do Tobias and Remington have a bad relationship?" Natalie couldn't help gossiping.
"Miss Godfrey, it is all in your head. The sibling relationship between President Whitlock and Mr. Remington is authentic. It's just that they have very contrasting personalities. Mr. Remington is undisciplined and cynical, whereas President Whitlock is calm and reserved.
Natalie's excitement about gossip was ruined.
She thought that the relationship between them would be as complicated as it was in the novels she read, but it turned out to be just so-so.
Although Benjamin said this, Natalie still had a strong intuition that it was definitely not as simple as Benjamin made Tobias and Remington's relationship to be. However, she couldn't tell the specifics.
The plane was flying high in the sky and dispersed the clouds in its path, leaving the contrails behind.
Natalie stared at the clouds in a daze until Benjamin reminded her that the plane was about to land.
Natalie then realized that the time passed so quickly in the blink of an eye.
"Miss Godfrey, I will take you to President Whitlock's hotel to take a rest after getting off the plane," Benjamin said to Natalie.
Natalie nodded.
She knew that Tobias was definitely occupied. It was still daytime, so most probably, he would work till late at night.
Benjamin suddenly thought of something and told Natalie casually, "Miss Godfrey, you've come at the right moment. It'll be President Whitlock's birthday in two days."
"Tobias' birthday?" Natalie said.
Natalie was at a loss for words.
Goodness, she didn't even know about it!
If Benjamin had not told her about this, she would not have known about it at all.
Natalie felt that it was a dereliction of duty as a wife.
She thought about it all the way and walked out of the VIP passage with Benjamin.
"President Whitlock," Benjamin, who was standing there, suddenly said in a surprised voice.
Natalie was stunned, and then she raised her head in disbelief.
She saw Tobias.
He stood there, wearing a trench coat that fitted him perfectly. The clothes that he wore were neat, which made him look incredibly great.
In that moment, Natalie's heart almost stopped beating.
She hadn't seen Tobias for only a few days, but it felt like a few centuries.
She missed Tobias so badly. It had only been a few days, but she felt like it had been a few centuries.
It is often said, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."
Natalie's footsteps stopped, and she just stared at Tobias.
She wanted to jump into the man's arms, but felt a little embarrassed, so she stood right there foolishly.
That was, until Tobias strode toward her.
The way he walked was so confident and calm, which rendered one unable to take their eyes off him.
Tobias gave Natalie a big hug.
The dazzling charisma of this manly man immediately surrounded Natalie.
Natalie almost burst into tears.
She sniffed and knew that she was being affected.
Love was a magical thing. For example, even such a carefree girl like her had become so pretentious.
"Silly girl, what are you waiting for? Huh?" Tobias said calmly.
"I'm not in a daze. You're too good-looking that I'm dumbfounded," Natalie whispered.
Tobias laughed.
Even his smile could melt one's heart.
"I belong to you no matter how I look. When we get back home, you can do whatever you want to me," he suddenly approached Natalie and said indifferently. "Of course, it's up to you to take off your clothes," he added.
Now that Natalie was here, Tobias did not intend to let her go.
He was determined to have this girl this time.
Not only because Natalie had a bee in her bonnet about him, but also because he could barely hold on to his desire.
Natalie's face turned red immediately.
She glanced angrily at Tobias.
She realized that this man always talked dirty to her during every romantic moment and simply ruined the atmosphere.
"Natalie, I'll take you to the hotel." Tobias changed the topic with a smile as his wife got mad.
Natalie nodded and followed Tobias. Along the way, the man's hand had been tightly holding onto her tiny hand and there was a sweet smile on Natalie's face.
The hotel was near the airport, which was extremely luxurious.
It was Natalie's first time coming to the United States. On the way, she was busy looking around at everything because everything here was new to her.
Tobias took Natalie directly to the elevator, and she was stunned.
"Don't we need another room?" She said hurriedly.
She came here just to see Tobias, but she didn't plan to do anything with this man. She hadn't been so shameless as to come such a long way just to fool around with him.
Tobias stared at Natalie indifferently and said, "Natalie, do you think a husband and wife should live separately?"
