Room 201 's door was closed.
Natalie knocked on the door with a smile of anticipation.
At the same time, Yuna stood up.
'Are you alright?" Tobias frowned.
Yuna shook her head. "I'm fine."
"Then I'll leave first." Tobias nodded and turned to leave.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Tobias didn't think much about it.
He had nothing to hide, so he wouldn't overthink things.
"I'll get the door." Yuna stepped in front of Tobias and hurriedly opened the door.
Yuna's eyes met Natalie's.
Natalie stared at Yuna.
Her face was flushed, and the collar of her dress looked like it'd been ripped open, revealing her fair skin.
Natalie was stunned for a moment.
Why would Yuna be here?
The text message had instructed her to come to room 201. Wasn't it Tobias who had sent the message? How could it be Yuna instead?
On the other hand, panic flashed in Yuna's eyes at the sight of Natalie.
She tried to close the door as if she was hiding something, but Tobias pushed past her and walked out of the room.
Then, he saw Natalie.
Natalie saw him as well.
She could not believe what she saw. She thought that her eyes were playing a trick on her.
She rubbed her eyes.
It was really him.
At that moment, her mind was abuzz.
Why was this scene so similar to catching someone cheating?
Tobias and Yuna were alone in a room, and Yuna's collar had been ripped open.
Subconsciously, Natalie turned around to leave.
Meanwhile, Tobias had finally returned to his senses.
He immediately chased after Natalie.
He knew that she must have misunderstood him
again.
However, he didn't blame her. It was only natural.
"Natalie." Tobias caught hold of her arm.
Natalie's arms turned stiff.
She slowly turned around to look at Tobias strangely. "You said you were going to speak to your grandfather, didn't you? How'd you end up in Yuna's room?"
Tobias' head started to ache.
He shouldn't have kept this from Natalie because of his unnecessary worries.
The sight of him in Yuna's room, coupled with the fact that he had lied to her earlier, made his actions seem even more suspicious.
He started to feel anxious.
He and Natalie had been through so much just to get back together, and he was truly afraid that something would come between them again.
"Natalie, please, let me explain. I was going to meet Yuna earlier, because she did help save me. Grandpa wanted me to thank her, and I thought that it was necessary."
"You told me that you were going to see your grandfather, though." Natalie looked into Tobias' eyes.
Her tone was unusually calm.
Tobias did not notice Natalie's calmness despite their current situation.
