Chapter 229
"You don't have to say anything, Selina. I'm leaving. Take care of yourself. As I said, we'll meet again if we're fated to meet again."
Natalie shook off her hand and left.
Selina wanted to follow her but Natalie was too fast and she couldn't catch up.
Selina went upstairs to look for Tobias in a hurry, but there was no sign of him.
She realized that the loud bang she heard was made by Tobias.
What happened to Tobias and Natalie?
A few days ago, they seemed to be so in love. How could everything turn upside down in a few days?
Selina dialed Tobias' number.
However, no one answered the phone.
"Tobias, please answer the phone... Your wife ran away in the middle of the night! It would not be good if she gets taken advantage of!" Selina muttered to herself.
Tobias finally picked up the phone.
"What's the matter?" Tobias' voice was extremely cold, so cold that Selena trembled.
"Tobias, Natalie ran away. Why are you not going after her?"
No reply was heard; instead, there was a disconnected tone.
Tobias had hung up.
Tobias' Ferrari sped through the quiet and lonely night.
He drove the car at high speed.
The anger in his heart intensified.
He had thought that he would deal with things calmly and not act like a young, inexperienced man.
He didn't expect Natalie's words to make him lose control.
The phone rang several times but Tobias turned a deaf ear to it. He only picked up the phone when he could not stand the loud ringtone.
Selina told him that Natalie ran away.
Natalie's words disappointed him.
However, it was late and it was too dangerous for her to be alone.
Tobias slapped the steering wheel hard and turned the car around. He drove in the direction of the Whitlock family's apartment.
At that moment, Natalie came out of the apartment with her bag.
It was dark, the moon was round and Natalie felt bitter.
When she walked out of the Whitlock family's apartment, she found out that she had nowhere to go.
She felt that she belonged nowhere.
Natalie's tears welled up.
She thought, "It looks like I really have to sleep under the bridge tonight... I'll talk to Yvonne tomorrow."
Before she met Tobias, she was treated badly by Madison, Queenie, and Brayden. Despite that, she still lived a happy life. She believed that she could survive without Tobias by her side.
She thought, "I am strong and independent! I will not be defeated so easily!" Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Natalie tried to cheer herself up but she still couldn't suppress the sadness in her heart.
Tobias didn't love her.
She thought that her happiness was coming, only to find out that she was just hallucinating.
Not long ago, she was so excited that she even wanted to have Tobias' babies.
It was such a joke.
Natalie hated herself for being stupid.
Suddenly, a car light shot at Natalie. It was so bright that Natalie covered her eyes with her hands.
It was Tobias' car.
He saw Natalie holding her bag with a hand covering her eyes.
She looked extremely down- and- out; she looked like a beggar on the streets!
Tobias opened the door and got out of the car.
Natalie saw him walking towards her.
With the moonlight shining on him, though he looked sullen, he was still handsome and breathtaking.
Natalie wanted to leave but her legs were rooted to the ground. She couldn't seem to move.
"Get in the car." Tobias' tone was cold.
Natalie asked stubbornly, "Why should I get into the car with you?"
"Because I'm your husband!"
"I'm not going to go into the car!" Natalie replied.
The next second, Tobias threw her over his shoulder.
Natalie panicked.
She patted Tobias's shoulder hard. "Tobias, you're a bad guy. Let go of me!"
Tobias did not care about what she said. He quickly put her in the passenger seat.
"I want to get out of the car!" Natalie's eyes were full of hatred.
"You're not allowed to," Tobias refused Natalie coldly.
"Tobias, I don't have a place in your heart. Why are you looking for me? My whereabouts have nothing to do with you! Why do you have to do this? I want to divorce you! I don't want anything to do with you in the future!"
Bang!
There was a loud noise.
Natalie was shocked.
Tobias' hand slammed hard on the steering wheel. The veins on his face were popping.
"Natalie, are you f*cking heartless? I wouldn't treat you like this if I don't have you in my heart. Ask yourself, how have I always treated you? If you don't hold a place in my heart, why would I treat you like this?"
Natalie was stunned.
This was the first time she heard Tobias swear.
Moreover, Tobias looked very fierce and she was scared.
It was the first time she had seen Tobias look so fierce.
The car soon arrived at the Whitlock family's apartment and Tobias got out.
Natalie was still sitting in the car.
"Get out of the car," Tobias said in a cold tone.
Natalie took her bag and got out of the car.
She walked in the opposite direction, and Tobias grabbed her hand. "Come back with me."
Natalie stopped.
She replied in a calm tone, "Tobias, thank you for everything you have done for me. I am very grateful. I know that I should repay you and continue to pretend to be married to you, but I'm sorry. I really can't do it. I fell for you but you didn't for me. I can't live like this. I have to leave..."
Before Natalie could finish her words, Tobias pulled her into his arms.
Tobias kissed her hard.
The kiss was rough and it was not gentle or tender at all.
Tobias bit her lips hard; her lips almost bled.
Natalie frowned in pain. She wanted to push Tobias away but he hugged her tightly. Natalie could not break free at all.
Selina popped out her head from upstairs.
She was looking out to see if Tobias had brought Natalie, only to witness the scene.
Her heart pounded wildly.
The way her brother forced a kiss on Natalie was really amazing. If she hadn't been his sister, she would have fallen in love with Tobias.
He was so manly and wild. Good heavens! Her brother was so handsome!
Tobias finally let go of Natalie; her lips were swollen.
Tobias stared at Natalie and said, "Natalie, what makes you think that I didn't fall for you? You're not the only one who fell in love. I fell in love with you too."
Natalie was dumbfounded.
