"A blessing for your relationship and love." Selina said reluctantly.
She did not know why, but when she saw Remington and Natalie together, she could feel Tobias's heartbreak.
But she had to suppress her heartache.
She respected Natalie. She should respect Natalie's relationship, no matter who her partner was.
Remington smiled even brighter, "You should wish for us to have a baby. It would be best if that happens tonight."
After that, he looked at Natalie with a smile, "Natalie, don't you agree?"
When Natalie heard what Remington said, she wanted to punch Remington as hard as she could.
But Selina was right there, she could not do anything. She could only force a smile.
To Selina, Remington was simply flirting with Natalie.
She instantly felt uncomfortable.
"You two have a talk. I need to use the washroom." After that, Selina ran hurriedly to the bathroom.
Selina splashed a handful of cold water onto her face.
She remembered the moment when the news of Natalie's death was announced. She recalled how Tobias was smoking on the roof balcony. He coughed so hard that it almost looked like he would cough up blood soon.
Her heart throbbed and she panicked.
She still thought that Natalie and Tobias were a better match.
But what could she do about that?
It was Natalie's choice. Besides, Tobias had done bad things to Natalie.
Selina tried her best to force a smile.
Suddenly, her smile froze.
She remembered the phone call with Tobias the day before.
She told Tobias that Remington found a girlfriend, and he was going to bring her home. She asked if Tobias wanted to be there and see her.
Selina was suddenly alert.
Would Tobias really be on his way?
If that really happened, then it would be shocking.
Although it was highly unlikely, since Tobias had never cared about Remington's affairs. He was even less likely to care about Remington's girlfriend, Selina still had an uncomfortable feeling.
She called Tobias.
At first, the call was not connected. Selina kept calling. In the end, the call was finally connected.
"I was on the plane, so I switched off my phone." Tobias' deep voice could be heard.
Selina felt a sense of foreboding.
She shivered and asked, "Tobias, you just got off the plane? Where are you going?"
"I'm in the United States. I'm on my way home." Tobias said in a straightforward tone.
Selina's vision went blank, she almost fainted on the spot.
"It's better that you don't come back here. Mom and dad are in Hawaii. I don't think you should come back." Selina's voice was full of tension and anxiety.
"Selina, is there something wrong?" Tobias' voice turned serious at once.
"No, there isn't."
They were disconnected abruptly. What was left was the beeping sound of a disconnected call.
Selina's hands were trembling, "Tobias is coming back. What should I do now? Natalie and Remington are still here. It's like Mars crashing onto Earth."
Natalie sat on a couch.
Remington's grandfather was taking a nap, so Natalie waited on the couch first.
Lots of snacks were right in front of her.
Natalie was not that nervous. She would be nervous upon seeing Cecilia or Selina, but she would not be nervous upon meeting Remington's grandfather.
After all, she was not really Remington's girlfriend, so she would not be that shy.
In her opinion, she was only helping Remington. She was helping him to complete a task.
Remington took a grape and brought it to Natalie's lips, "Here you go."
