Chapter 290
The next day arrived very soon.
Natalie opened her eyes as soon as she woke up.
When they were opened, she saw Tobias' handsome face.
He was still asleep.
Natalie subconsciously wanted to turn around, only to realize that her waist was held in place.
Natalie suddenly stopped breathing.
She stopped because she was afraid of disturbing Tobias.
He did not stop working even though he was in a ward. He must have been very tired. Natalie wanted him to have a good rest.
Since there was nothing to do around there, Natalie began to stare at Tobias' handsome face.
It was too early in the morning, and she was hungry.
On the other hand, there was a feast in front of her.
Tobias' handsomeness was enough for her eyes to feast on.
Outside the window, the sunlight shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows and into the ward.
A warm light could be seen in the ward and Tobias was also covered by this, making him look much gentler.
He looked so handsome, as if he just walked out of a painting.
Natalie stared at his eyelashes.
They were so long, so thick, and so dark too.
She could not help but touch her own eyelashes.
Natalie's eyelashes could be considered pretty, but they seemed far inferior to Tobias'.
And his nose.
How could he be so good-looking?
Natalie subconsciously touched her own nose again.
Why did it feel like her nose was flat?
She looked at his lips.
Natalie suddenly gulped a mouthful of saliva.
Their kiss flashed in her mind.
The way he stuck his tongue into her mouth without restraint too.
A strange heat spread all over her body.
Then, she suddenly remembered the pain she felt that day, and the heat slowly dissipated.
It seemed like the incident that happened was wonderful and she was even yearning for it.
But it hurt so much when she really did do that.
Natalie would rather not do it again.
At the same time, another strange heat spread towards Natalie.
Natalie was shocked.
She looked at Tobias in shock.
The heat came from Tobias' body.
But he was still fast asleep.
Was he having an erotic dream? Could he not control himself?
Ah! Natalie screamed internally.
She really did not expect a man like Tobias to have erotic dreams.
This was too incredible for her.
Just as her thoughts were running wild, Tobias woke up.
He slowly opened his eyes, and they were as bright as the stars, even under the morning light.
As soon as Tobias opened his eyes, he saw Natalie looking at him with a look of horror and disbelief.
"Did you see a ghost?" Because he had just woken up, his voice was a little hoarse.
"Were you having an erotic dream?" Natalie's eyes widened.
Tobias was speechless.
"I am not interested in those," Tobias said in a flat tone.
"Then what was that about!" Natalie could not help but look at the bottom part of his body.
That was right; the strange heat came from that part of his body.
Tobias suddenly realized what was going on.
Even for him, the scene was somewhat awkward.
"Natalie, it's normal for men to have this in the morning."
"What, it's normal?"
"You have been staring at it for a long time, so is there anything you want to do to it?"
Natalie suddenly snapped back to her senses.
She quickly retracted her gaze. "Of course not. That's right, I should go and have breakfast. I'm hungry. See you later."
Natalie jumped out of bed as if she was flying.
Looking at her flustered look, Tobias let out a faint smile. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
After having breakfast, Natalie helped a nurse push the cart into the ward.
"Let me feed you."
Tobias took a deep look at Natalie and said, "You can feed me with your mouth, but if you want to use your hands, forget it."
Natalie was speechless.
She looked at Tobias speechlessly. "Then I think you should just eat on your own."
Tobias did not continue to tease Natalie; he ate by himself.
Natalie looked at him and realized that his recovery rate was not that bad. At least when he ate, she could tell that it was not difficult for him anymore and that he was not in pain.
Natalie sat on one side. She supported her chin with her hand as she watched Tobias eat his breakfast.
Watching him eat was visual entertainment for her.
It was so natural and unrestrained, like a painting that came to life.
Natalie scolded in her heart.
It seems like not everyone was born the same.
Some people were good-looking, so much so that they would look excellent even when they were eating. God was too unfair.
Winnie suddenly entered her mind.
Would she eat so elegantly too? She looked so great. She was beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
Natalie's heart felt like it was pricked by a needle.
"What's on your mind?" Tobias suddenly looked at Natalie.
Natalie was stunned.
Tobias' observation skills were too superb. Natalie was only distracted for a moment, and he was able to capture it immediately!
She laughed drily and said, "About that, Winnie won't come and look for you anymore, will she?"
Tobias' cutlery paused for a moment.
After a while, he put them down.
"Do you want her to come and look for me?" Tobias said it very slowly.
Natalie bit her lip. "Of course not."
"If she comes, will you run away like this again?" Tobias stared at her.
Natalie withdrew her gaze.
The way Tobias worded it made her uncomfortable.
It made her feel like she was particularly useless and incompetent.
However, that was the truth.
The inferiority she felt caused her to flee
"Natalie, you were not like this back then," Tobias said in a low and powerful voice. "When you first met me, you knew my identity but you never hesitated. A college girl without any background actually dared to confront a president. You are the first to do that."
Natalie's breathing paused for a moment.
Then she let out a wry smile.
Back then, she really didn't think too much.
She thought of a metaphor: Why would someone with wet feet be afraid of wearing shoes?
Tobias was the president of a huge business empire, and he had significant social status.
As for her, she was not important. It didn't matter if she lived or died. Besides, there was nothing for her to worry about. Hence, in front of Tobias, she was indeed fearless.
"Natalie, you would even stab your mother. So when did you become so weak?"
Natalie's eyes widened.
She would even do that to her mother.
Tobias' words made her feel that she was particularly ungrateful.
However, in reality, if her own mother was not so cruel to her, would she have become like this?
She was silent for a long time.
Natalie raised her head and looked at Tobias. Her eyes were full of unspeakable emotions. "Because, there's a saying that love brings sorrow and fear."
Tobias narrowed his dark eyes.
"Come here." He said two simple words, but there was a powerful aura to them.
Natalie walked over in a daze.
She stood there. Tobias was sitting and the two of them looked at each other as they usually did.
However, Tobias' powerful aura made Natalie feel like she was being looked down on.
