Chapter 280
Remington did not doubt her at all; Natalie really would do that.
"A waitress. I asked a waitress to help you change your clothes. She was a woman," Remington said with a faint voice.
He was not afraid of her rushing up to him; he only thought that she was too emotional.
Natalie subsequently went to find the waitress to confirm it for herself. After that, Natalie believed him.
She looked at Remington with gratitude and surprise. She said, "I'm sorry for what I did just now."
Natalie felt guilty and embarrassed at the thought of how anxious she was just now.
Remington just smiled, but he did not say anything.
Natalie felt somewhat surprised.
He seemed to be a little different from what she imagined him to be.
She had always thought of Remington as a complete pervert. Especially after she heard that he once slept with ten women in one night. Ever since she learned that, she confirmed that his private life was a complete mess.
She did not expect him not to take advantage of her, not even a little bit.
"Thank you, Mr. Fox," Natalie solemnly said.
"Thanks? For what?" Remington asked. He looked at Natalie as he frowned. He asked again, "For not touching you or for not changing your clothes?"
Natalie seemed a little awkward.
This was not what she meant.
But she did not know how to explain it to him.
"Don't think too much. I just want to thank you."
Remington smiled and asked, "Can I ask you a question, Natalie?"
"Go ahead."
"You were so anxious when you thought that I was the one who changed your clothes. Then what about Tobias? Don't tell me that he has never touched you, or are you going to kill him if he does that?" Remington smiled cunningly. He seemed somewhat malicious.
Natalie's face suddenly darkened when she heard what he said.
Tobias.
She thought of him once again.
When she thought of Tobias, she fell into a depressed mood.
Her mood was so down that it felt like she was a sinking ship, landing in the deepest part of the ocean.
"Natalie?" Remington asked with deep and dark eyes.
Natalie said bitterly, "He's different."
"How so?" Remington asked sternly.
"Just know that he is different. Don't ask this anymore," Natalie replied. She did not want to talk about him anymore.
So what if he was different? No matter how different he was, they had to travel their own paths now.
Wasn't there an old saying, "Walk your own path and find your own way."
Tobias had an advantage. His mother was like an angel.
But she was not that lucky, so whatever.
Natalie sighed, then she said, "Mr. Fox, I should go now."
A flash of surprise could be seen in Remington's eyes. "Go? Where are you going?"
Natalie thought for a moment, and she realized that she had nowhere to go.
However, it was not a wise idea to stay with Remington.
They were alone, but they were not lovers.
"Back home. I've seen this city already, so I should go back now," Natalie said casually.
"Home is such a boring place. How about I continue taking you around for some fun?" Remington looked at Natalie excitedly.
Natalie shook her head and replied, "No thanks."
"There's a place here that sells delicious mint cakes. Do you want to go there?" Remington tried to tempt her with food.
But Natalie was still not interested.
"No thanks. I don't want to eat. I'd better go back now," she said.
Remington saw that Natalie was determined to leave.
He smiled and said, "The mint cake is really delicious. It'll be a shame for you to miss it. Or, you can wait here for a while. I'll buy it for you, then I'll send you back later. What do you think?"
Natalie thought that this was not a bad suggestion.
She was unfamiliar with this place. Even if she wanted to go back on her own, she would not even know which bus to take.
It would be a good idea for Remington to take her home.
"Alright, I'll wait for you here," Natalie said.
After Remington left the room, Natalie was alone in the spacious presidential suite.
Natalie turned on the TV.
A family show was airing. It was about a man who cheated on his wife by having an affair with another woman.
She quickly turned off the TV.
What nonsense; TV shows these days really liked to broadcast these scenes of people having affairs. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Natalie took out her mobile phone. She wanted to read the news.
She got a big shock when she saw her screen.
It was filled with notifications of missed calls, and there were countless of them.
All of them came from Tobias.
Natalie's mood suddenly brightened up.
Had he been looking for her?
Was he worried because he could not get to her at all?
Or maybe he was worried that something happened to her.
Natalie looked at Tobias' mobile phone number on the screen.
She subconsciously wanted to call him, but her fingers suddenly paused mid-air.
Should she call him back?
Natalie was struggling at this moment.
After a long time, she decided to turn off her mobile phone.
She came to a conclusion that she shouldn't contact him.
She already said what she did to Tobias when she left, so there was no need for her to call him back.
Natalie suddenly felt really irritated.
She became restless.
She thought that she should go for a walk; it would be better than being upset here.
Besides, she wouldn't go far. If Remington could not find her, then he might call her.
Natalie opened the door of the hotel suite.
A tall figure walked towards the door the moment Natalie opened the door.
Natalie was caught off guard and fell into his embrace.
She rubbed her head and she felt a sharp pain.
"Who's that? Why are you standing here?" Natalie asked, but the rest of her words were stuck in her throat.
Tobias stood in front of her.
His face was gloomy, as if a storm was brewing.
Natalie suddenly panicked.
Why was he here?
Wasn't he in a hospital in Agaphen City?
Natalie trembled with fear.
Tobias looked so terrifying. His body exuded a sinister and evil energy, as if he had just walked out through the gates of hell.
Natalie used to see such sinister energy in characters in TV shows, but she never understood what it was.
Now, she finally understood it.
"Where's Remington?" Tobias stared at Natalie and asked coldly.
Natalie was stunned.
She did not expect Tobias to ask her where Remington was the second she saw him.
Could it be that he knew Remington came to this city with her?
Natalie panicked for a while, but then she thought that it was strange.
Why was she panicking?
Nothing had happened between Remington and her. They were blameless and innocent, so why was she so flustered?
Natalie remained silent.
She did not like Tobias' tone. It seemed like he was questioning her.
However, what Tobias said really hurt Natalie, "Natalie, what did you and Remington do?"
His tone was cold and indifferent, without any trace of warmth. It was so cold that it could freeze this entire building in an instant.
