Chapter 779


    They had clearly never been the same type.


    By the time they arrived at the Whitlock family vi, Selina had already fallen asleep.


    Her breathing was light as sheid on Natalie''sp.


    "Selina, wake up, we''re home." Natalie was a little exasperated


    She tried to shrug her awake, but Selina was deep in slumber. She didn''t react at all


    "Natalie, you don''t need to wake her up. I''ll carry her inter," Matthew said.


    Natalie was dumbstruck.


    "Well then, thank you, Matthew.” She nodded after a moment.


    If it had been another man whe suggested something like that, Natalie definitely would have disagreed.


    She couldn''t trust other men for they might take advantage of Selina.


    However, when it came to Matthew, she was okay with it.


    This man was noble and elegant. He did not look like a man who would take advantage of women, so Natalie was at ease.


    Natalie got out of the car first.


    Then, Matthew cradled Selina into his arms.


    He found it easy to carry Selina. She was as light as a feather.


    He caught a whiff of her scent.


    She smelled as sweet as honey, and there was no trace of artificial perfume on her. It was her natural body scent.


    Matthew''s gaze hardened


    His eyes fell on Selina’s face, whe was fast asleep in his arms.


    She had soft, pearly skin and voluminous eyshes. She looked like a Barbie doll.


    She had a cute button nose and full, luscious lips.


    They were like a soft and plump cherry, luring him in to have a taste


    "Matthew, we''re here,” Natalie muttered from a distance


    Matthew snapped out of it.


    He walked into Selina''s room along with Natalie. Slowly setting Selina down onto the bed, he covered her with a nket.


    "Natalie, she might throw up in the middle of the night. You should tell the servants to watch out for her," Matthew suddenly said.


    Natalie was stunned.


    Natalie would have done that without him even having to say so. However, why would Matthew say that?


    He didn''t seem to be close to Selina.


    "You seem to care a lot about Selina,” Natalie said, half-jokingly.


    Matthew''s smirked, his tone matching Natalie’s. "She''s unmarried, and so am I. Of course I''m concerned about her.”


    Natalie couldn''t help but burst intoughter.


    She found Matthew to be quite funny.


    This man was a friend of Tobias. Both of them were equally outstanding and handsome. However,pared to Tobias, Matthew was not as cold


    Natalie then sent Matthew off on his way.


    As he gat into the car, Matthew remarked casually, "Natalie, it seems that this husband of yours just might not be qualified enough."


    Natalie smiled. "In what way?"


    "He''s unqualified, letting you be alone at home the night before your wedding.” Matthew joked


    Natalie did not mind at all, and her tone remained pleasant. "I actually think that makes him even more qualified. He''s out there doing overtime work


    in order to be with me after the wedding. There''s nothing bad about that.”


    Matthew grinned, his eyes reflecting his envy. "Natalie, your rtionship with Tobias is so strong. You have enough trust for each other."


    A hint of surprise shed across Natalie''s eyes. “You can tell?"


    Matthew smiled. "Of course. Go ahead and rest. You''re getting married tomorrow.”


    Natalie nodded. "Okay, you too."


    After Natalie left, Matthew got into the car.


    Halfway through his journey back home, he sensed that something was wrong.


    Something didn''t sit right with him.


    Indeed, Tobias was a very busy man.


    Howeversbased on Matthew''s


    understanding of Tobias,he


    woulda t be busy to the point that he


    was-tnable to stay with his precious


    wife the night before their wedding.

    Matthew made a call to Tobias immediately.


    The call was quickly connected.


    "Matthew," Tobias said in a low and deep voice.


    Hearing that there was nothing strange about


    Tobias’ voice, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.


    "Tobias, are you so busy to the point that you left your poor Natalie alone the night before the wedding?" Matthew teased.


    "How did you know?"


    Matthew smiled and did not answer his question. "You should go home early. She''ll definitely be nervous since she''s getting married tomorrow. She


    needs you to be with her.”


    After a while. Tobias suddenly said: "I have some matters regarding Natalie''s background to attend to right now.”


    A look of surprise shed across Matthew''s face. "What could possibly be that urgent?"


    There was no answer. Suddenly, a beeping sound came from the other side of the phone.


    Matthew tried to call Tobias once more, but to no avail


    In the middle of the night, Natalie got up to check up on Selina


    She was sound asleep, and she didn''t throw up.


    Natalie was relieved and went back to sleep. As she drifted off, she had a dream


    She dreamt that she was married to Tobias.


    Just like the grand finale of a TV show, it froze on that scene.Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Natalie grinned.


    She woke up at the break of dawn


    Natalie was in a good mood and began to prepare breakfast.


    Cecilia got-up a littleter. She was


    very surptised to see Natalie making


    breakfast. "Natalie, you are getting


    married today! Why are you still


    preparing breakfast? Just letthe


    servants do it.”


    <


    Natalie shook her head with a smile.


    ‘Auntie, hean''t sleep anyway. I cany


    just prepare breakfast for everyone.


    When Tobiases hometer, he


    cary rhave the breakfast I made.”


    Speaking of this, she was a little embarrassed. "This might just be thest meal I cook before I get married to Tobias.


    Upon hearing Natalie''s words, Cecilia smiled along with her. "Well, it''s nice that you''re so thoughtful.”


    Hayden and Selina got up one after another.


    Meanwhile, Tobias still hadn''t returned home.


    Cecilia felt uneasy and made a phone call to Tobias, but no one answered


    Cecilia grew even more anxious.


    Natalieforted Cecilia, "Auntie, don''t worry. He


    might be driving.”


    Selina swiftly interrupted, “Why are you still calling her Auntie? You should be calling her Mom now, Natalie.”


    Natalie''s face turned a deep shade of red.


    Cecilia patted Natalie''s hand. "It''s okay. The wedding hasn''t been held yet."


    Natalie took a deep breath. "The wedding ising up. Mom. I''ll start addressing you like that now."


    Cecilia was slightly stunned.


    After a moment, she smiled. "Good girl.”


    Selina was beaming with them.


    “Aunt, will Natalie call Grandma Mom from now on?” Hayden questioned as he tugged at Selina''s hands


    "That''s right.”


    "What about me? What should I call Natalie?" He blinked his big round eyes.


    "Of course you should call her Mom too, you little dummy." Selina gently poked his forehead


    Hayden immediately covered his eyes with his hands. "I''m too shy."


    His behavior made everyoneugh


    It was already eight- thirty. Tobias still hadn''t returned home, and any calls to him couldn''t get through.


    "What''s wrong with my brother? It''s one thing for him not to havee back homest night, but it''s his wedding day! Why hasn''t hee back yet?"


    Selinained.


    Cecilia called Tobias again, but no one answered
