All of Natalie's senses were filled with Tobias. She could feel his body heat and could smell the fragrant scent coming off him.
Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it was going to skyrocket.
All of a sudden, the man's arms wrapped across her waist.
Natalie's whole body stiffened almost as if her blood was flowing backwards.
After a while, she wriggled awkwardly, trying to pry the hand from her waist.
"Be good, don't move." The man's hoarse voice sounded beside her ear. The voice seemed to be suppressing something.
Natalie dared not move anymore.
The hand on her waist felt like a soldering iron, searing her skin.
She tried hard to divert her attention from the hand hugging her waist.
She counted sheep, forcing herself to sleep.
She counted and counted until sleepiness overtook her. Her eyelids could not hold on any longer and she gradually dozed off.
That night, Natalie had a chaotic dream.
It was the kind of dream that resembled the past and the present.
In her dream, she seemed to have known Tobias in her previous life. The two of them had gone through a lot together.
The next day, when she woke up, she could not seem to remember anything from the dream.
The hand on her waist was still there; Tobias had really kept his promise.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe did not do anything unruly to her.
Natalie did not know whether or not Tobias had woken up. She could only hear his shallow breathing and the burning iron of arms behind her. The area behind her bum felt a little hot, but she did not dare to move.
What happened next made Natalie regret.
She should have left the bed as soon as she woke up.
Because Hayden had woken up.
His high fever receded overnight, and the child had returned to his usual energetic self.
As soon as he woke up, his shouts filled the entire ward, "Natalie, Dad, you've slept together, you've finally slept together!" Natalie was frightened out of her wits.
Not caring about anything else, she jumped out of bed.
Without Natalie blocking his eyesight, Hayden could clearly see Tobias.
He giggled and said, "Dad, your pants are going to burst." Tobias continued lying in bed quietly.
Natalie shrank to a corner, wishing that she could dig a hole and bury herself in it.
They say that the babbling of children knows no boundaries, but it was times like these that embarrassed adults the most.
For the whole morning, Hayden was yelling about this and prancing around energetically.
Natalie suspected that the whole hospital knew that she had slept with Tobias.
Obviously, they were innocent. Nothing had happened.

However, when the doctor was about to leave, Hayden tugged on his sleeves. With innocent, bright eyes, he asked, "Mr. Doctor, Natalie slept with my father last night. When women and men sleep together on TV, they get married. Are Natalie and my fathe going to get married?" The doctor's expression turned awkward immediately, followed by silence.
He hemmed and hawed, "Kid, this is not within my medical scope." With that, he hurried away.
The discharge procedures were done in the morning. Before they left, Natalie went to the hospital's restroom and overheard a conversation.
"Do you know that beautiful child that was sent over yesterday, the one with the handsand virtuous-looking father? Do you know what the father did in the ward last night?" "I don't know. What happened?" "He slept with the nanny last night. This morning, the kid was shouting all about how his father had slept with his nanny." "No way. A man like that could get any woman he wants. Was he so horny that he had to sleep with his nanny in the ward?" "That nanny looked rather decent, and not like a nanny at all. If she hadn't told me, I would have thought that she was his wife." "No matter how decent she looked, she's just a nanny. That man is obviously not someone ordinary. He can't be short of women, can he?" "Who knows? Maybe that's how rich, handsmen like it, doing it in hospital wards?" Natalie bolted out of the restroom as fast as her legs could take her.
The shshe felt in her heart almost engulfed her.
She should not have slept on the sbed with the big boss that night. After the fuss Hayden made, she was going to die of embarrassment.
That day, Hayden was in good shape, and was ready to go to kindergarten.
Since Hayden was well enough to attend his classes, Natalie decided to go to work.
She went to work in the big boss' car.
Throughout the drive, Natalie felt extremely awkward. She looked out of the window, not daring to look at Tobias, not even a side glance.
While waiting for the traffic lights to turn green, the car stopped.
Tobias's intense gaze fell on Natalie's face, "Hayden is just a child, he doesn't understand. Don't take his words to heart, and don't mind him too much." Natalie's fingertips shook, "I-1 don't mind." "But you won't look at me?" Natalie took a deep breath.
She tried her best to turn her head and stared at Tobias.
Their eyes met.
The man's eyes were dark as midnight, like an ancient, mystic pond. Just one glance was enough to pull her in, sinking her, deeper and deeper. Natalie did not want to sink into them like quicksand.
She hurriedly lowered her gaze.
When she did that, especially with her head bowed shyly, she looked pure and graceful.
The corners of Tobias's lips could not help but curl up into a soft smile.
"Getting shy again?" He asked playfully.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No." "But you're looking down, not daring to look at me." "No, I'm not." "Hmm?" The man drawled.
Natalie once again took a deep breath and looked up- Then, she blurted out, "Mr. Whitlock, is there a woman in your heart that you can't forget?" After the words escaped her lips, she was confused as to why she would ask such a question.
The smile on Tobias's face froze.
He looked at Natalie, and a strange glint flashed across his discerning eyes.
Why would Natalie ask such a question? Did she remember something? He studied Natalie, but she did not look as if she had figured anything out.
"Yes, there is." Tobias's reply ca moment later.
At once, Natalie felt her soaring heart plummet to the pits of her stomach, falling and falling, making her sick.
"Do you love her very much?" she asked.
"I love her to the bones." "Oh," Natalie muttered.
There was a feeling of immense chagrin in her voice.
Tobias wanted to add something, but the lights turned green.
They drove forward.
After arriving at the office, Natalie bumped into Merry in the washroom.
Merry seemed to ignore Natalie and walked straight past her.
Natalie grabbed her and asked, "Merry, what's wrong?"
Merry stopped and said, "Natalie, you're so deceptive, ACyou really askingwhat's wrong?" Natalie's heart skipped a beat.
Was it because of what happened with Jadiel? Natalie licked her dry lips, at a loss for how to explain it to her.
Merry initially did not want to talk about it, but when Natalie asked her, she could not help but complain "Natalie, you obviously have a You boyfriend, but you lied toand toldthat he's your father. How can you do this? What kind of a person says that their boyfriend is their father?" Hot Singles Are Looking For Older Men X
