Natalie woke up in the middle of the night, and her face was covered with tears.

She stared at the darkness in her big bedroom and couldn't help crying out loud as if she had finally let go of her disguise.

In fact, even if she seemed unfazed on the outside, she would still be saddened by certain things.

When she was watching the documentary, that was the first time she had the urge to cry.

However, she had been holding back her tears at that time.

She convinced herself that she was not the most pitiful person in the world. Many people suffered the same tragic fate as her. Why should she cry?

Despite that, when night came, and when she woke up from a nightmare, she finally couldn't control her emotions anymore.

Late at night, Tobias walked towards Natalie's room with a bottle of ointment in his hand.

The moonlight poured through the French windows and cast a glow on Tobias's body.

His figure looked a little distant.

Tobias knew that Natalie would be sleeping like a log.

Aunt Lee had told him that Natalie usually slept soundly. Natalie was almost late for school a few times because she overslept. Hence, Aunt Lee often knocked on her door to wake her up. However, no matter how loudly she was knocking on the door, there was no response at all. Natalie continued to sleep soundly.

The only way she could wake up was to wake up on her own. Aunt Lee could never wake her up with her efforts. Tobias agreed secretly that Natalie did indeed look like someone who would sleep too soundly for her own good. That was why he wanted to apply ointment on Natalie late at night.

The scars on her hips must have been there for some time. It would definitely be ineffective if he was to use any ordinary ointment.

Nonetheless, the ointment in his hands was different from normal ointments. He happened to obtain this from an old Chinese medicine doctor by chance. At that time, he even paid an exorbitant amount for it. When Natalie's hand was injured previously, he applied this ointment on her. Hence, she was able to recover almost immediately.

When Tobias came across the scars on Natalie's hips in the bathroom, he was indeed shocked.

Despite that, being Tobias, he was able to calm down very soon.

He already had an intimate experience with Natalie. And later on, he even had several intimate contacts with her, but he had never discovered these scars on her body. He knew that Natalie was meticulous in making sure these scars wouldn't be discovered no matter what.
