Chapter 37
Natalie glanced at Tobias in confusion.
"Who's gonna to subdue the flames in me if you just leave like that?" Tobias gritted his teeth.
Natalie's head was buzzing.
It was only then did she realize that the man's body was burning and his breathing was ragged.
After all, she experienced it once before, so naturally, she knew what he meant. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
"You said that you wouldn't touch me!" Natalie said hurriedly.
How could this man go back on his words after he promised her?
"I did promise that I wouldn't touch you but I didn't say that I wouldn't respond when you throw yourself at me!" Tobias' eyes darkened.
Natalie was so embarrassed that her face was as red as a cherry. She muttered, "I didn't do it on purpose."
Tobias sneered, "You said you didn't peek at me deliberately earlier. Now you're claiming that it was an accident when you're in my arms. Natalie, are you going to feign ignorance every time something like this happens?"
"It's true, I didn't do it on..." Natalie's eyes widened before she could finish. She spotted Tobias' lips approaching her. Tobias' lips were so perfect that it made her heart pound.
"Natalie, you must snap out of it!" Natalie urged herself internally. She was about to push Tobias away when he suddenly stopped dead in his tracks.
"What is that smell?" Tobias frowned.
Natalie smiled awkwardly and explained, "I didn't change my clothes!"
Tobias inhaled sharply and loosened his grip around Natalie's waist.
This made him sober up instantly. What was he doing earlier? Why did he lose control?
He and Natalie were just pretending to be married. No matter what, he should not touch Natalie.
"Let's go out." Tobias regained his cold and arrogant self, as if nothing happened previously.
Natalie heaved a sigh of relief discreetly. At the same time, she eyed Tobias with a strange look on her face.
"This man is really a gentleman," Natalie thought. After all, she had no way to prove her innocence if Tobias insisted that she had thrown herself into his arms and he devoured her.
After exiting the bathroom, Natalie's face had yet to revert to its original color and she was still flushed. Moreover, they took a long time to take turns showering, therefore Cecilia was smiling meaningfully.
"Young people have really good stamina," Cecilia sighed. "Mother, go to sleep." Tobias interrupted Cecilia.
"I'm going back to sleep now," Cecilia replied.
Obviously, Tobias understood that Cecilia's previous claim to stay here was just an excuse but he did not point it out. He muttered, "I'll send you back."
"There's no need for that. The driver is waiting for me downstairs," Cecilia was about to leave when she added, "You two should rest. I won't bother you any further."
A limousine was waiting for Cecilia downstairs. After Cecilia got in the vehicle, she ordered the driver to drive to the villa on the summit of Pacific Mountain located in the north of Agaphen City.
That was where Cecilia was staying currently.
The Whitlock family's businesses were mainly situated in Europe. Tobias' grandfather and father were living in Europe at the moment too.
Originally, YS Group was a small company for Tobias to test the waters. However, nobody expected Tobias to be a genius and he was able to expand the company into a massive cooperation.
YS Group was based in Agaphen City. Cecilia was worried about her son, hence she bought some properties in Agaphen City to check in on him regularly.
On the way back, Cecilia kept smiling faintly.
Tobias was her son. Naturally, she knew that he was not as obsessed with women like other wealthy men and he practiced total abstinence.
Tobias would never touch Natalie if he was not interested in her.
