Tobias was about to start a meeting where all the directors were already present. Just when he was about to put his phone on silent and start the meeting, he received a phone call from Aunt Lee.

"What's the matter?" Tobias' voice was faint.

"Mr. Whitlock. Miss Godfrey seems to have encountered an accident. Her face is bruised. It looks like she was beaten by someone. I asked her what had happened, but she refused to say anything." Aunt Lee sounded so anxious. She sounded like she was on the verge of tears.

Tobias' breathing paused momentarily, and after a while, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"I'm coming back home now." Tobias hung up.

"Our meeting today will be suspended for now. We will postpone it to a later date." After saying that, Tobias immediately left the group of directors who were exchanging glances amongst themselves and stormed out of the conference room.

A Bugatti Veyron reached the Whitlock Family's apartment not long after. Tobias got out of the car and hurried upstairs.

When he saw Natalie, Tobias' eyes narrowed slightly, and then a flame was ignited within him.

Natalie was half lying on the sofa, and she seemed to be staring at the crystal lamp on the ceiling with her eyes wide open. She looked absent-minded. Her clothes were tattered and were covered with dust and weeds, and there were faint bloodstains on her face.

"Natalie." Tobias walked over.

His tone was low and hoarse.

When she saw a tall and handsome man appear in front of her out of the blue, Natalie jumped up in shock.

She gaped at Tobias as she stammered, "You, why did you come back so suddenly?"

It was still early. Why did this man come back so suddenly?

Tobias did not answer Natalie's question. He stared at Natalie with his deep black eyes and asked, "What happened to your body and face?"

Natalie's eyes lit up for one moment, but then she smiled dryly and replied, "It's nothing serious. I just fell a while ago."
