Even if Tobias reprimanded her, she would not blame him for doing so.
However, she never expected Tobias to say such a thing. His words were like knives stabbing through her heart.
She hated Tobias so much.
Tobias did not say anything and his face was unreadable; no one could tell what he was feeling.
Just as Natalie was about to leave, Tobias suddenly said, "Natalie, what I said just now was not intentional. I rarely speak without thinking."
Speaking of this, he paused, and his dark eyes fell on Natalie's face, "It is because I like you so I can't control myself from speaking without thinking."
Natalie was stunned.
Under the moonlight, the man's eyes were like a whirlpool, luring people in.
Natalie was almost lured in.
This was the first time Tobias said that he liked her.
Although Natalie always had a feeling that Tobias might be interested in her, she was never certain of it.
After all, Tobias was the president of the YS Group and Natalie was just an ordinary person.
Now Tobias was the one who said he liked her.
Tobias liked her, Natalie.
But this was not the right time to confess. Natalie would have been over the moon if it was in the past, but she no longer felt that way.
Tobias' confessing right now was like comfort given to her after he gave her a hard slap.
It took Natalie a lot of effort to look away from Tobias' eyes.
"If you really like me, you wouldn't have said such a thing." Natalie quickly said and turned around to leave.
She seemed like she was running away.
She was afraid that she would be taken away by Tobias' eyes if she did not leave.
Tobias caught up with Natalie.
This time, he was not behind Natalie but was beside her. "Natalie, it is getting very late. Follow me back now. Even if you are still angry, let us head back before settling things," he coaxed.
"I'm not going back!” Natalie was angry.
What was the point of going back at this point?
"If you're not going back, where are you going to go?"
Natalie saw a bridge in front of her. She walked quickly to the bottom of the bridge and said, "I'm sleeping under the bridge!"
Rumor had it that a lot of homeless people slept under the bridge. If other people could, she could sleep under the bridge as well.
However, she regretted it the moment she arrived.
In front of this bridge was a long river that was like a stinking ditch. The stench that emanated was so pungent that she almost fainted.
However, she chose that place so no matter what, she had to stay. She had to stay even if the smell was giving her a headache!
Natalie suddenly sat down by a stone under the bridge and said, "I will sleep here tonight."
"How long do you plan to sleep here? What about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?" Tobias looked at Natalie.
He knew that Natalie was just whining. Any attempts at persuading her at this point were useless.
Sure enough, Natalie said angrily, "Let tomorrow's worries be tomorrow's. You don't have to worry about me. Go back to your high-end apartment and I'll sleep here under my bridge!"
Tobias's face flashed a look of helplessness.
A moment later, he sat down and said, "If you want to sleep here, I'll stay here with you."
There was a flash of horror in Natalie's eyes.
"You are the esteemed president of the YS Group. How can you sleep here?"
"The president of the YS Group is also a human being. If you can do it, so can I."
Natalie did not say another word.
