All sorts of complicated emotions were intertwined in Tobias' deep, dark eyes.
He suddenly held Natalie's hand and placed a gentle kiss on it. "Natalie, our wedding will be in three days."
Natalie nodded her head.
As she thought of the wedding, a faint smile appeared on her face.
She was finally going to get married to Tobias after all these years.
She had gone through so much just for this day to come.
Natalie couldn't help but bury herself into Tobias' arms, her voice filled with emotions. "That's right, three more days until our wedding. Time sure flies, it's all happening so fast!"
"Natalie, I'll give you a surprise on our wedding day," Tobias said suddenly.
Natalie's gaze froze.
"What surprise?" she asked.
"I'm not telling you now, you'll know when the wedding day comes," Tobias replied in a deep tone.
There was a flash of emotion in his eyes, disappearing as quickly as it came, like a ripple on the water.
The truth surrounding Natalie's family background had been slowly revealing itself. The only missing piece of the puzzle left was Jessie. He was going to bring Jessie back to Glevania.
He wanted Jessie to tell Natalie about the truth about her past on the wedding day. This was the surprise that he mentioned earlier.
However...
A serious expression clouded Tobias' eyes.
There was still one thing that he hadn't found an answer to. Why had Jessie lied?
It was clear that there was no conflict of interest here, so why had Jessie lied?
In the president's office of the Perry Group.
There was a file on Jack's desk.
As Jack's slender fingers flipped through the pages attentively, a look of astonishment flashed through his eyes.
So, this was the truth about Natalie's background...
His chest was brimming with strange emotions.
After a while, Jack took out his cell phone. He had to tell Natalie the truth.
The phone call was soon connected.
Natalie was a little surprised by Jack's phone call.
"Jack," she said. "I didn't expect to receive a call from you."
Jack's gaze grew perplexed.
"Natalie, I have something to tell you," he said in a deep tone.
Natalie chuckled and said, "Just in time, Jack, I have something to tell you as well. The day after tomorrow is my wedding day. It's at the JS Hotel. Please come, okay?"
Jack felt an unexplainable sourness in his chest.
After a while, he took a deep breath.
"Okay, Natalie."
"Okay, it's a deal then!" Natalie's tone was chirpy. "You'd better come, then! Oh right, what was the thing that you had to tell me?"
"Natalie, I called to tell you about your background. Ever since I discovered that you weren't Madison's daughter, I've been sending people to investigate your background. It wasn't easy for me to gather the information, but your parents are actually not around anymore..."
"Jack!" Natalie interrupted Jack sharply.
Her voice started to get antsy.
Jack was baffled.
Natalie was very worked up. "I already know about my background. I don't wish to talk about this anymore. Please don't bring it up again, I don't want to hear it, Jack. That's it."
After saying that, Natalie hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Jack was completely stunned.
