Tobias normally drove sports cars. But today, he was driving a Bentley, which looked more formal.
"Tobias, why aren't you driving a cool sports car today?" Natalie asked subconsciously.
"The type of car has to suit the occasion." Tobias answered blandly.
Natalie mumbled a response as her expression changed slightly when she thought of something.
"Will I make you lose face if I appear alongside you like this?" Natalie asked in a low voice.
After all, she was from a poor family, so she wasn't someone who could appear gracefully in public. She was terrified that she would make Tobias lose face.
Tobias' dark gaze fell upon Natalie's face. His heart skipped a beat after hearing what she said.
It seemed that poverty from Natalie's childhood has been deeply rooted in her heart. Her cheerful appearance could not change the self-abasement that was deeply rooted in her bones.
Tobias thought that he wanted to let Natalie gradually become more confident.
However, this was not something that could be achieved overnight. He had to go at this slowly.
"No, you won't make me lose face," Tobias replied flatly.
Natalie was at a loss. She fumbled with her fingers and added, "I don't know anything, and I can't speak well either. I'm in a cold sweat."
"Don't you have a sharp tongue? Especially when you are arguing with me," Tobias rebuked her.
Natalie was embarrassed by his words.
Being good at debating wouldn't make her someone who could carry herself verbally on a dinner occasion.
"By the way, you don't actually want to bring me along, do you? If your mother didn't insist on it, you wouldn't be bothered to bring me along, right?" Natalie suddenly asked again.
She remembered that before Cecilia had suggested this, Tobias never had the intention to bring her to this dinner.
"Indeed, I never thought of bringing you along in the first place," Tobias answered directly.
Natalie pursed her lips and said "I know that. Maybe some girls will hit on you later and you don't want me to be there. Otherwise, if others already know that you already have a wife, they might not dare to talk to you anymore. You definitely don't want that to happen."
Tobias' face darkened. He raised his voice and said, "Natalie, am I such an obscene man to you? Hmm?"
Natalie kept her innocent eyes wide open as she answered, "Well, aren't you?"
Tobias was speechless. "What on earth caused you to have such an illusion?"
Tobias had always been knowing how to restrain himself. Why did Natalie think that he was such a lecherous man?
Natalie's eyelashes trembled slightly. "If you are not, then why did you do that when you first met me..."
Natalie couldn't continue what she intended to say.
In short, when they met for the first time, this man had used her in bed mercilessly. Would anyone even say that this man was not lewd, judging from his actions?
Although they had agreed that Tobias couldn't touch her, he would flirt with her from time to time.
Therefore, in Natalie's eyes, Tobias was certainly a lecherous man.
Tobias paused his breathing for a second.
He was muddled in the beginning as well. Many women tried to seduce him over the years. The number of women was uncountable. However, he had never lost control of himself. Despite his confidence, when he saw Natalie that day, he didn't know why he suddenly couldn't restrain himself.
Even at that moment, this woman had an inexplicable charm which could win over him.
If he hadn't always warned himself that he and Natalie were just a couple by agreement, and if it hadn't been for his great self-control, he would have already swallowed Natalie.
"Do you think that you're a perverted guy?" Natalie added.
