Chapter 506
Time passed little by little.
Albeit the hurt, frustration, and wretchedness, Natalie gradually calmed down.
All of a sudden, her phone rang.
The phone number was unfamiliar.
She answered the call, only realizing that it was Tobias when she heard his gentle voiceing
from the other end.
"Natalie, where are you now? I''lle to pick you up." The man''s voice sounded so clear and
pleasant.
Natalie told him her address, and Tobias arrived soon after.
He looked at her tenderly, "Natalie, I''ll bring you over now."
Probably because of what had just happened, the gentle look in his eyes made Natalie a little sad.
She swallowed all the outrage she felt because of the earlier incident.
She simply nodded.
The car drove to the hillside of Agaphen City and finally stopped in front of arge manor.
The luxurious exterior was enough to make even Natalie gaped in awe for a split second. It was like
something from a movie set.
That must be the famed mansion.
The morous, gigantic vi had awn big enough to y ser on, a gorgeous garden, and a
large swimming pool.
However, what surprised Natalie most was the gilded characters carved onto the stone pirs next
to the iron gate.
"Our Home."
"Is ''Our Home'' the name of this ce?" Natalie asked curiously.
Tobias nodded, his eyes soft, "Yes."
"What a cozy name," Natalie said subconsciously.
Vis of this scale and luxury were usually called "Heaven" or "Paradise", so it was unusual for it to
have such a down- to- earth name, but Natalie instantly took a liking to it.
Tobias nced at Natalie. His thin lips moved, but he ended up saying nothing.
The car pulled up on thewn and Tobias stepped out.
Natalie followed suit.
In front of them was a white vi with floor-to-ceiling ss windows.
This was the ce she was going to be staying at, and she did not even know for how long.
Natalie walked up the stairs. As soon as she reached the main hall, a boy rushed over, eximing,
"Natalie, you''re here."
His face was full of excitement as he eximed, "My father said that your name is Natalie. Can I call
you Natalie from now on?"
A look of pure astonishment crossed Natalie''s eyes.
Was this not the little boy she had met that morning?
The boy who had blocked her way, the boy who she brought to have breakfast with, and the boy
who made herte to work.
Tobias frowned, chiding, "You can''t call her that!"
The boy pouted at once, "Her name is Natalie, what else should I call her?"
Tobias''s breathing came to a halt.
The matter of salutation was indeed a little troublesome.
Not only was Natalie clueless about her rtionship with Hayden, but so was the little boy.
At present, how Hayden should address her was quite a headache.
Natalie spoke up, "Mr. Whitlock, it''s fine if he calls me Natalie. I feel old if he called me auntie
anyway."
Hayden instantly nced delightedly at Tobias with a triumphant smirk, "See, Dad? I can call her
Natalie."
Tobias rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat helpless.
He could not think of other names Hayden should address Natalie, so he just went with the boy''s
decision.
After their rtionship was made clear, he would let Hayden address her ordingly.
Hayden was a very lovable child. After Natalie arrived, he started pulling her around, chattering
endlessly with her. He even brought Natalie to his bedroom, showing her his prized hideout.
It was filled with figurines from top to bottom.
There were toy models of Avengers, One Piece, and Doraemon characters. It was truly a sight to
behold.
He showed off his figurines to Natalie one by one.
Watching Hayden''s tiny innocent face beaming with joy, Natalie forced herself to show some
happiness.
Although the incident with Remington was traumatizing, she was here to repay the losses she had
caused thepany.
Since she was already here, she had to do a good job of taking care of Hayden, and not bring her
negative emotions with her.
Natalie forced herself not to think about what had happened, pushing it to the back of her brain.
Instead, shepletely immersed herself in the conversation she was having with Hayden.
Outside the door, Tobias heard Hayden''s cheerful voice, and a smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
They were indeed mother and son. They got along so well with each other even though they barely
met.
Tobias''s eyes were pensive. The next thing he needed to do was to ascertain the rtionship
between Hayden and Natalie.
He could not tell Natalie what had happened before she lost her memory, so establishing their
rtionship would be quite an issue.
Tobias let out an inward sigh.
It was truly a conundrum.
In the room, Hayden was fiddling with the Ultraman figurine. He nced at Natalie with a pair of big
flickering eyes, "Natalie, do you think there''s a real Ultraman in this world?"
Natalie thought about it.
"Yes." She said, "I think there must be one."
Hayden smiled, eximing, "I think so too. Natalie, we''re really matching! I think that you''re really
the right person to be my stepmother."
She exined, "I''m here to take care of you, not to be your stepmother."
Hayden pouted and said, "You''re my stepmother."
Natalie had no choice but to change the subject. "By the way, what''s your name?"
"Hayden."
"Haydn? Like theposer?" Natalie asked with uncertainty.
"No, Hayden with an ''e"." He blinked.
Natalie was a little confused.
Why did the big boss give his son such a rare name? It was rather strange.
It seemed that Hayden had read Natalie''s mind. He said, "It sounds like Heathen, doesn''t it?"
Natalie said awkwardly, "Well, yes, it''s quite strange."
Hayden stuck out his tongue, "It''s because my father married a lesbian. After she left, my father was
suffering from grief. So he named me Hayden because some say it means heathen, and heathen in
French sounds simr to ''peine'', which means heartache or pain."
Natalie was at a loss for words.
In the morning when she heard Hayden tell a simr story, she just assumed that he was joking, as
a child typically would.
Now that Hayden had said it again, it started to make sense.
Could it be that Tobias had really married a lesbian?
And did it end up stimting his sexuality too?
Natalie felt that her assumptions were highly possible.
Natalie felt a sudden urge to sympathize with Tobias.
He was the president of the YS Group, someone so powerful and rich, and yet he had such a tragic
past.
Tobias personally went to the room to inform Natalie and Hayden that it was time for dinner.
Clutching Natalie''s hand, Hayden walked to the dining area with her.
The Whitlock family vi had an exclusive dining hall, and the room alone was bigger than Natalie''s
apartment.
Although only two adults and a child were having dinner, the table had enough food to feed an
army.
Natalie took one look and found that they were all her favorites.
Normally, she would have been foaming at the mouth at such a delectable sight.
But at that moment...
Although she repeatedly warned herself not to bring her negative emotions upon the Whitlock
family, it was impossible for her topletely block them out.

Naturally, Natalie did not have much of an appetite.
She only picked up a few mouthfuls of food and did not touch the rest.
"You don''t like them?" Tobias''s inquisitive eyes fell on Natalie''s face.
She did not want to exin too much to Tobias, so she just nodded vaguely.
However, she did not expect Tobias to immediately call for the butler, requesting that they change to
another chef the next day.
Natalie was dumbfounded.
