"It's alright," Aunt Lee said with certainty. "Miss Selina will definitely cback within a week. Don't worry, Miss Godfrey. I have watched over her since she was young, so I know what she is thinking." Although Natalie could hear how firm Aunt Lee's tone was, she was still worried.
She called Selina, and found out that she had turned off her phone. Natalie got even more worried.
Selina had left all by herself; what if something happened to her? After thinking about it, Natalie decided to give Tobias a call.
However, no one answered as well.
First, Selina turned off her phone, and at this moment, Tobias was not answering his phone either. Natalie was getting frantic.
It was not a big deal at first, but because she could not get in touch with anyone, Natalie becanxious.
After thinking about it, she decided to go to YS Group.
When she reached YS Group, not a single person stopped her along the way.
Natalie thought that it was strange. Could it be that the security guards recognized her from when she chere last time? Natalie entered the elevator.
She bumped into Benjamin the moment she stepped out of the elevator.
When he saw Natalie, his expression immediately stiffened.
"M- Miss Godfrey." Benjamin sounded awkward as he said that.
Natalie originally only wanted to greet Benjamin, but she paused in her tracks when she saw how unusually strange he was. "Benjamin, why are you tongue-tied?" Natalie teased him.
The look on his face turned even worse.
Were there such coincidences in this world? He had just led Winnie into the office to meet Tobias, and now Natalie was here? Although there was definitely nothing going on between Winnie and Tobias, what would Natalie think when she saw them in Tobias' office?

"M-Miss Godfrey, why are you here?" "I am here to look for Tobias." "Mr. Whitlock? He is not in his office." Benjamin could only lie.
"It's alright. I can wait here." Besides, Natalie had tto spare.
How could Benjamin let her wait there? If she waited there, wouldn't that mean that she would see Winnie when she cout? "Miss Godfrey, why don't you wait downstairs? I will inform you when Mr. Whitlock comes back later." Benjamin felt guilty when he said that.
Benjamin was bad at lying. The way he spoke immediately made Natalie suspicious.
She stared at him and asked, "Benjamin, is there anything you're hiding from me?" "No, no, Miss Godfrey." Benjamin's forehead was covered with sweat.
"Really?" "Really." Benjamin forced himself to admit it.
"Then I will wait for Tobias in his office." Natalie was about to go up.
"Miss Godfrey, Mr. Whitlock is not here," Benjamin immediately stopped her.
His strange behavior made Natalie even more suspicious.
In overbearing CEO romance , when situations like this happened, like when the president's assistant stops the protagonists, it was only one of two reasons. First, the president was having an affair with another woman in the office.
Or, the president was catching up with his exgirlfriend.
Natalie immediately gave up on the first idea.
Tobias' shoulder was injured, so he would not do such a thing.
But the second possibility...
Natalie's heart tensed all of a sudden.
Could Tobias and Winnie be in the sroom? "Benjamin, is Winnie inside?" Natalie's breathing suddenly quickened.
Benjamin's expressions changed drastically.
He did not expect her to guess it so soon.
Seeing Benjamin's reaction, Natalie understood everything.
Her mind was in a state of distress at once.
Could it really be Winnie? Tobias told her that he had absolutely nothing to do with Winnie anymore, didn't he? If that was the case, why would Tobias have a private meeting with Winnie here, and why was Benjamin stopping her? After a while, Natalie desperately shook her head.
No, she wanted to trust Tobias..
Back when they were at the hospital, she told herself that she should trust him.
She had not seen anything herself yet, so she must not make any wild guesses.
Natalie quickly walked to the president's office.
At this point, Benjamin could not stop Natalie anymore.
He was really anxious too.
How could such a coincidence happen? How?! He was not sure what would happen once Natalie pushed the door open.
Natalie stood at the door, and she took a deep breath.
She must be overthinking things. She had to be thinking too much!
Perhaps Tobias was alone inside, and Winnie was not there at all.
m Perhaps Tobias was inside discussing work with someone else.
Sveins in her hands turned visible from her nervousness as she grabbed the handle of the door.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe pushed the door open and entered.
Winnie walked in front of Tobias and said, "Tobias, it's really not how you think it is. My father was caught in a huge financial crisis back then and someone was wreaking havoc for him. They even had evidence of him bribing the government. If he was caught, he would have to be imprisoned for the rest of his life! I am his only daughter, so I had to help him!" Tears flowed down Winnie's face as she said that.
Tobias' eyes were deep, deeper than the ocean.
"So, you did that because of this?" After a while, Tobias spoke indifferently.
No expression could be seen on his face at all.
Winnie stared at him and said, "Tobias, are you blamingfor not asking you for help? You must be thinking that you could have solved this matter with your financial abilities, right?" He remained silent.
Winnie choked and said, "You are the best man I have ever met. Even someone as outstanding as I am will feel nervous in front of you, so I didn't want you to know about these things. I was afraid that you would feel that I am not worthy of you. I wanted to be a woman who could be an equal of yours, so I..." Winnie choked with sobs. "But we didn't do anything. Nothing happened. You only saw the beginning of it. We hadn't reached that point yet. Honestly, nothing happened." Tobias remained silent.
Winnie's sobs grew louder.
She was the daughter of a rich family, so she seldom showed her weakness in front of other people, much less cry in front of them.
Over the past few years, she held back on telling Tobias the truth as she still felt pride in her heart.
She hoped that Tobias would see her as a woman worthy of him, and not as a woman who needed his help to solve her family's financial crisis when her father bribed an official and almost landed himself in jail.
However, because of Natalie's appearance, Winnie becanxious.
When she broke up with him, Winnie knew that he did not have any woman close to him.
She told herself that apart from her, no one else was worthy of Tobias.
That was why she told herself not to get too ahead of herself.
One day, Tobias would think this through, and they would be together again.
Not long after, Natalie appeared and she got together with him.
