Chapter 769
Tobias'' eyes turned gloomy as he looked at Natalie. "Natalie, you said you went to a hot spring and rested in the Four Seasans Hotel?"
Natalie bit her lip.
After a moment, she decided to tell the truth. "Yes. I lied to you! I didn''t go to any hot spring nor the Four Seasons Hotel. Since you didn''t want to
bring me to North Europe, I decided to just go there myself!"
After she finished, she looked at Tobias.
She thought that Tobias would be displeased and angry.
After all. she had lied to him.
However, he wasn''t.
Complicated emotions were written all over Tobias'' face.
After a while, he embraced Natalie.
His warmth engulfed her.
Tobias spoke slowly in a resigned tone, saying, "Natalie, do you know what day it was yesterday? It was our first encounter in the hotel, many years _
_nago.
Natalie was startled
Tobias continued, "You told me that you were in room 302 of the Four Seasons Hotel, so I went there, but it wasn’t you who opened the door. I went
to the front desk to check, but you weren''t around. I called you, but it didn''t go through. Only when I got someone to investigate did I find out that you
were on a flight back.”
His voice was full of weariness and helplessness.
A sense of guilt arose in Natalie.
She had forgotten that the day before was the anniversary of their first meeting. She also had no idea that Tobias would look for her.
Natalie lowered her eyes as she apologised, "I''m sarry, Tobias."
Her voice was soft. She really shouldn''t have lied to Tobias.
"Natalie," Tobias murmured in a low voice. "It''s my fault. You wanted to find out more about your identity, but I stopped you. That''s my fault.”
Natalie''s eyes lit up with hope because of Tobias'' words. "Then can you take me to see the man named Santiago?”
Tobias'' body stiffened.
After a while, he let go of Natalie and said, “Natalie. let''s go home and rest."
Natalie''s eyes darkened.
Why was Tobias willing topromise with her in every single thing except this?
At the Whitlock family house in the United States.
Cecilia thought that it was strange. Why were Remington and Hayden constantly together nowadays?
Even though she didn''t understand Remington very well, she knew that he wasn''t the type of man who liked kids a lot, not to mention having the
patience to y with one.
Initially, she felt a little worried.
After all, she knew a little about his past feelings for Natalie.
However,ter on, Cecilia was relieved.
Now that Natalie and Tobias were getting married soon, no matter what Remington may feel towards Natalie, he should keep himself in check.
She knew that Remington had always been a clever man.
As for Remington patiently ying with Hayden right now, Cecilia believed that it was merely because Hayden was Remington''s nephew.
Meanwhile, Remington was ying basketball with Hayden.
Of course, it was basically only Remington ying while Hayden watched.
Whenever Remington made a shot, Hayden''s eyes would light up with admiration
"Uncle Remington, you''re so cool!" Hayden eximed in admiration when Remington sessfully shot a ball into the hoop
Remington smiled
He sat down next to Hayden and asked, "Do you think I''m good at basketball?"
Hayden nodded his head furiously. "You''re amazing at basketball, Uncle! If my girl ssmates watched you y, they would totally gossip about
marrying you. Uncle, you''re the best." Remington smiled. "Actually, I''m not the best at ying basketball. There''s someone way better than me."
Hayden''s eyes widened. "Really?"
He couldn''t believe that there was someone on this earth who was better at basketball than Remington.
In Hayden''s eyes, Remington was already the world''s best basketball yer!
"It''s your grandma''s father. He’s the true master of basketball.”
Hayden''s eyes immediately sparkled. "Then can I see him? I want to watch him y basketball." Remington''s eyes flickered.

Hayden stood up with him. “Then I''ll ask Grandma to bring me to see him. I want to learn how to y basketball from him.”
Remingtopsuddenly turned towards
Hayden and uttered, "Hayden, don''t
ask your ir grandma, ask your mar to
bringyou. Your grandma is very
busy taking care of your grandpa.”
Hayden didn''t think too much about it.
During this period of time, Remington had been keeping himpany. so hepletely viewed Remington as his most beloved uncle.
Hearing Remington''s words, he obediently did as he said and took out his phone to call Natalie.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
At the Whitlock family vi in Agaphen City.
Tobias went to the kitchen to prepare some food for Natalie.
Meanwhile, Natalie sat in the living room, biting her fingernails.
Heaven knows how bored she was to end up doing something as dull as biting her fingernails.
Ever since she hade back from North Europe, her thoughts were hazy.
Rather, ever since she found out about her identity, her thoughts had been muddled
She felt as if she was floating in the clouds. She had no idea what she was doing or thinking. Everything felt unrealistic to her.
While Natalie was lost in her thoughts, the phone suddenly rang
It was a call from the Whitlock family home in the United States. Natalie could pretty much guess that it was Hayden.
A hint of joy finally sparked in her eyes.
“Hayden.” After answering the phone, Hayden called Natalie''s name sweetly.
"Natalie, can you promise me something?” Hayden immediately made a request.
She felt a little helpless.
The first thing he did when he called was to make a request.
“Alright, tell me then.”
"I want to y basketball with the world''s most amazing basketball yer!" Hayden said excitedly.
The world''s most amazing basketball yer...
Although Natalie didn''t know much about basketball, she knew that the world’s most amazing basketball yer was probably an NBA star.
“You want to watch an NBA game? Then we''ll bring you there next time," said Natalie.
Hayden immediately refused. "I don''t want to watch the NBA. They aren''t the most amazing."
"Ah, then who could be more amazing?”
"Grandma''s dad is the real, most amazing basketball yer!" Hayden eximed proudly.
Natalie was speechless.
Hayden''s grandmother''s father would be Cecilia''s father.
At his age. he probably couldn’t even carry a basketball, let alone y it
“Don''t mess around anymore, Hayden." Natalie couldn''t help but reprimand him.
I''m not fooling around, Natalie. Grandma''s father can y basketball with me," replied Hayden seriously.
In a resigned tene, Natalie said,
"Hayden, youve never even met your
grandma''sfather. You donteven < =
