Chapter 718


    Tobias subconsciously nced at the clock on the wall. "Why don''t we do it tomorrow? It''s toote


    tonight."


    "Toote?" Peter waved his hand dismissively. "There''s no such thing as toote. Besides, if you


    have nothing to hide, why would you care so much about seeing her at night?"


    Tobias narrowed his eyes.


    He nodded after a while. "Alright."


    At nine o''clock in the evening, Tobias went up to Natalie and asked her to go to bed first.


    The servants had already gotten the room ready.


    Then, he told her about Peter''s offer.


    Natalie was a little nervous. "Really? Did he really say that? Will he really ept our rtionship if I


    stay here for half a month?"


    "Yes, but you don''t have to be too nervous. Just make yourself at home," he said.


    Natalie blinked. "But what if he still doesn''t ept us when the timees?"


    Tobias stared back at her with his deep-set eyes.


    He rubbed the tip of his nose against hers. "This is ourst chance, and it is hisst chance too."


    Confusion shed in Natalie''s eyes.


    "If Grandpa is still unwilling to ept you, I''m going to ignore his rejection from then on. I won''t


    make you try to get into his good books anymore either."N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Her eyes widened in astonishment.


    "But... but he is your grandfather," she stammered.


    He looked into her eyes affectionately. "You''re my wife, Natalie. How can I let you always be the one


    to give in?"


    Now that he was leaning in to her, Natalie could feel his warm breath fan out over her face. It made


    her feel secure.


    With his reassurance, Natalie immediately felt better.


    She should not care about what others think as long as Tobias cared about her.


    She looked at him. "I''ll listen to everything you say."


    A warm feeling surged in Tobias'' heart.


    He suddenly thought about his meeting with Yunater.


    Initially, he was going to tell Natalie about this, but stopped himself as he didn''t want her to worry.


    Although nothing was going on between Yuna and him, he was afraid that Natalie would overthink.


    He could not bear to see the disappointment and sadness on Natalie''s face again.


    Tobias''s gaze darkened.


    A momentter, he muttered, "Natalie, you should go to sleep. I still have something else to do."


    "Huh?"


    Peter and Tobias had already spoken for such a long time, but he still had something to do?


    "You still have something to discuss with your grandfather?" Natalie asked.


    Tobias was a little taken aback by her question.


    Natalie did not wait for him to answer. "Alright then. I''ll wait for you right here."


    Waves of guilt instantly rose in Tobias'' heart.


    Even though he was only telling Natalie a white lie, he still felt guilty.


    "Natalie, you get some rest," Tobias said.


    "I''ll wait for you."


    "You sleep first. I don''t want you to tire yourself." Tobias'' tone was doting.


    Natalie smiled. "Okay."


    By the time Tobias arrived at the parlor, Yuna was already sitting there waiting for him.


    Peter immediately stood up when he saw Tobias. "Alright, I believe it''s my cue to leave. You two


    should have a good chat."


    "Grandpa," Tobias stopped him. "You should stay."


    Peter yawned. "I am going to sleep. You two take your time."


    He left quickly after that.


    Yuna and Tobias were left alone.


    Tobias spoke first. "Yuna, thank you for your help. I don''t like to owe favours, so just tell me what


    you want. I''ll try my best to get it for you."


    Yuna looked at him gently.


    After a while, she said lowly, "What if I want you?"


    Tobias frowned in disgust. "Yuna, you''re smart. You should know that you''re just repulsing me by


    saying that."


    Disappointment shed in Yuna''s eyes.


    "What can you give me then?" she asked, her gaze fixed on his face. "Money? A mansion? Or the


    shares of yourpany?"


    "I can give them to you as long as you want it."


    Yuna scoffed. "Unfortunately, I don''t want these things."


    Tobias pursed his thin lips tightly and said nothing.


    Minutes passed, then Yuna suddenly stood up. "Let''s just forget about it. You can''t give me what


    you want, so I''m not going to ask for anything. Perhaps I can even leave a good impression in your


    heart?"


    Then, she turned to leave.


    However, she suddenly fell, as if she''d twisted her ankle.


    Tobias immediately helped her up.


    She held on to Tobias''s arms and stood up as she winced in pain.


    She looked at her ankle mockingly. "I can''t even leave proudly..."


    Yuna looked at Tobias. "Can you get someone to get a guest room ready for me to rest in?"


    "I''ll inform the servants," Tobias said as he strode out of the room.


    Yuna sat on the sofa as she watched Tobias leave, a calcting look in her eyes.


    She quickly pulled out her phone and sent out a message.


    A minuteter, Tobias came back.


    "The guest room has been prepared, and the private doctor wille soon." "Could you please


    send me to the guest room?" Yuna suddenly said.


    She looked at Tobias, her gaze imploring. "Didn''t you ask me earlier what I want as repayment for


    saving you? I only want you to send me to the guest room."


    Tobias''s expression darkened.


    "I believe the president of YS Group is a man of his word, and he would carry out his promise to his


    saviour," she added.


    "Fine," Tobias said.


    A sly smile formed on Yuna''s lips.


    When they arrived at the guest room, Yuna suddenly tripped and stumbled forward, and Tobias


    instinctively leaned forward to steady her.


    Yuna''s smile turned into a sly smirk.


    She fumbled for the door handle as soon as Tobias stepped into the room to rescue her.


    "Bang!"


    The guest room door mmed shut.


    At the same time, she pretended to fall to the ground.


    She tugged roughly at her dress''s cor as she fell, exposing the skin beneath.


    Nataliey on the bed, tossing and turning.


    Although she was sleepy, she could not fall asleep.


    She was waiting for Tobias.


    Though she knew that Tobias would probably take a long time with Peter, she still wanted to wait for


    him.


    She felt uneasy without Tobias by her side.


    Suddenly, her phone dinged.


    It was a text message from an unknown number.


    She opened the message.


    "Come to room 201


    Natalie frowned in confusion.


    After a moment, she smiled in realization.


    It was probably a text from Tobias.


    Perhaps Tobias hadn''t gone to speak with Peter. Perhaps he''d prepared a surprise for her, and now


    he was asking her to go over there... Natalie immediately got out of bed and headed towards room


    201.
