If he really gave it to her, that would literally be a huge burden!
"I don't want it. It's too expensive," Natalie dared not look up at Tobias.
Probably because the barrier between the both of them had just been broken, but Natalie had not mentally prepared herself. She did not even dare to look at Tobias.
Tobias raised Natalie's chin. He was very gentle and Natalie’s eyes met with his before she could react.
When they looked into each other's eyes, Natalie's heartbeat quickened.
Tobias was supporting her jaw and she could not deliberately look away. She had to force herself to look into Tobias' eyes.
The more they looked at each other, the more frightened Natalie was.
Oh for goodness sake!
Was this handsome man really the same man who confessed to her the night before?
Did he really say that he liked her?
Were they really going to start acting like a real couple from now on?
She felt that all of this was an illusion.
Tobias looked at Natalie and said with a slight smile, "The price to pay to make my girl smile. How is it not worth it?"
Natalie's face became even redder.
She suddenly realized that the cold and aloof Tobias he usually was, knew a thing or two when it came to flirting.
Was the line he used not one of the classic pickup lines that playboys used to turn girls red on TV?
Before this, Natalie would always judge this kind of plot in her heart.
She would say, "The female lead is really stupid. That playboy just said things like that, and she was completely swept off her feet. If I was in her position, I would be able to scare the guy away in a heartbeat!"
However, now that she was facing the same situation, Natalie knew that it was not as simple.
Nobody could resist a handsome man flirting with them.
Of course, Tobias was a little different from the men on TV. He was definitely not a playboy, but Tobias had skills that could be as good as the guys on screen.
Natalie's face turned red. She had a look of a girl who had just fallen in love.
"I-1 really don't want it," her voice was timid and even a little tender.
"Then what do you want? Hmm?"
Every time Tobias spoke, there was a slight hum at the end of his voice. It was a delight to the ears.
Natalie's eyelashes fluttered.
What did she want? She did not seem to have anything to ask for.
In the Whitlock family, she ate well and dressed well every day. She had nothing to ask for.
Natalie shook her head and said, "No, I don't want anything."
"Then I'll give myself to you. Do you want me?" Tobias' eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky. They were gleaming brightly.
Natalie's head started buzzing.
This man, did he really have to be this good at flirting? Natalie had no experience in love. She really could not stand how he was flirting with her.
"I- I...¹' Natalie was so nervous that she could not speak.
Tobias' face got closer and his nose almost touched Natalie's nose. A sudden heat rushed to Natalie's face.
"Do you want it or not?"
The man looked at her and his eyes were luring her in. Natalie spent a lot of effort to not let herself get lured into it.
"Ca-can I?" Natalie seemed to have exhausted all her strength.
Tobias slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and his smile was stunningly gorgeous.
"Of course." His voice was low and gentle.
