Chapter 141
Natalie's heart felt like it was struck heavily by a blunt tool.
He had already made it clear the day before?
Was what Tobias said the night before really an affirmative answer for her, and it wasn't just her own imagination?
Did it mean that Tobias really liked her too?
Natalie was dumbfounded and the messy thoughts in her mind also faded away along with Tobias' words.
Tobias's lips fell on hers again, and this time, Natalie did not resist. She even put her hand on Tobias' waist.
The kiss went deeper, and the whole room was filled with a romantic atmosphere.
Tobias stopped as he almost could not control himself.
"Let me apply the ointment for you," Tobias said as his sense of reasoning came back.
Natalie laid on the bed giddily, and Tobias applied the ointment on her.
Tobias's fingers were rubbing on her skin gently. His touch was electrifying Natalie's entire body.
Natalie did not know what was going on. Tobias wanted to apply ointment on her, but after a while, he was on top of her.
Natalie was immersed in her giddy state. Before she could figure out what was going on, her clothes were gone.
"Natalie, do you want it?" Tobias leaned over and whispered in Natalie's ear.
His tone was low and hoarse, and the heat from his voice spread to Natalie's earlobe as he spoke.
Natalie's whole body was limp. She could not tell whether she wanted it or not. She only felt that she longed for something and that longing could break through all her reasoning.
"Do you like me?" Tobias asked again.
His voice was slightly low and hoarse as he said it; it was very charming.
Natalie nodded.
She knew that she liked the man.
"When did I fall for him?" Natalie thought. She had no idea. Perhaps he had inched his way into her heart somehow.
When he saw Natalie nodding, the desire in Tobias' eyes became even more intense.
He could no longer control himself.
He held Natalie's hand tightly and said, "It's your second time, so it will still hurt a little. Hold my hand. I will be gentle."
Natalie felt shivers all over her body.
Tobias' words reminded her of what Remington said.
Remington said to her, "How do you know that Tobias has not slept with any other woman?¹'.
Would Tobias say that when he was trying to sleep with another woman? Would he also gently remind her to hold his own hand to brace the pain? Would he also say that he would be gentle?
Natalie looked at Tobias like she was possessed.
"Tobias, how many women have you slept with?"
Tobias froze.
The atmosphere turned completely cold, and the romantic atmosphere dissipated instantly.
Tobias's eyes suddenly became very indescribably cold.
He looked at Natalie and said it word for word, "I have slept with a few women!" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After that, he got off from Natalie's body, put his clothes on, and left.
Natalie's senses were coming back to her slowly, and she realized she said something wrong.
She should not have asked Tobias like that.
She should have asked Tobias whether he had slept with other women before instead of the number of women he slept with.
No. She should not have asked anything in the first place.
Even if she had established her relationship with Tobias, she had no control over Tobias's past. How could she get jealous and ask Tobias?
Natalie regretted her words.
She really did something wrong this time.
Natalie put her clothes on and paced in the room for a long time. Finally, she decided to apologize to Tobias.
She should not have asked such a question in that situation.
Natalie walked to Tobias's bedroom. After hesitating for a long time, she finally gathered the courage to knock on Tobias's door.
There was no response.
Finally, Natalie gritted her teeth and walked in.
Tobias was sitting in front of his desk. He was not doing anything but sitting there coldly.
Tobias did not react to Natalie coming. It was as if he did not see her.
Natalie walked up to Tobias.
"Tobias," Natalie whispered.
Tobias still did not respond.
Natalie knew that Tobias must be really angry.
"Tobias, I said something wrong." Natalie's eyes were slightly red.
She did not know why Tobias was ignoring her. She suddenly felt very difficult as if her heart was blocked.
Tobias was silent.
Natalie's eyes reddened even more, "Tobias, I don't know what's wrong with me earlier. It was my mistake for asking that. Please don't blame me."
Natalie thought her mind must have been in a blur when she said that.
How could a woman ask that kind of question when she was going to sleep with a man? A pig would be smarter than her!
Tobias still remained silent.
Natalie was sobbing and choking, "Tobias, can you please say something? I feel devastated to see you like this. Don't do this to me."
Tobias was so indifferent to her that he was about to drive her crazy.
Tobias finally reacted. He looked at Natalie's face and said, "Go to sleep. It's getting late."
Tobias' words sounded like he was drawing boundaries with her. He did not say anything cruel, but it seemed that he pushed Natalie thousands of miles away.
Natalie did not want to leave. She did not want to leave at all.
How Tobias was acting was leaving her suspended. Her heart would only be at ease if he was his usual self again.
Time passed by slowly.
Tobias stood up and his tall figure covered Natalie.
"Leave, I want to rest." His voice was calm but cold.
Natalie's heart sank a little.
Tobias was ordering her to leave.
"Tobias, I really didn't mean it," Natalie repeated.
"Go to sleep." Tobias did not seem like he wanted to talk about it.
Natalie knew that if she continued to talk about it, Tobias would still ignore her. She gritted her teeth and said, "Then you should rest early too."
After that, she left Tobias's bedroom.
She looked back as she walked towards the door.
She thought Tobias would ask her to stay.
However, there was nothing. Tobias did not even glance at her.
Natalie lost all hope.
She walked back to her bedroom.
What happened earlier was still playing in her mind.
Tobias asked her if she liked him in such a gentle manner. Then he told her that it might hurt, and that he would be gentle.
Things would be set between Natalie and Tobias if she did not say ask that stupid question.
