His gentle voice sounded like spring water that could soothe the heart.

Subconsciously, Natalie let go of her hand.

When Tobias's figure disappeared into the dark for a long time, Natalie suddenly came to her senses.

What was she doing just now?!

She couldn't believe that she was actually confused by Tobias's words and eyes. She even let him go!

Natalie gritted her teeth. She promised herself that she must get to the bottom of this matter tomorrow, no matter what.

That night, Natalie did not sleep well. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She had a lot of questions circulating in her mind, which made it impossible to sleep.

She woke up early the next morning.

Sitting in the living room downstairs, she waited for Tobias.

Today, she had to get to the bottom of everything.

However, another accident happened.

Cecilia came back.

Natalie did not see Tobias, but she saw Cecilia.

Cecilia appeared at the Whitlock house in the morning.

The moment she saw Cecilia, Natalie did not feel panicked or afraid but startled.

It had been four years since they had seen each other, but she hadn't expected Cecilia to end up like this.

She had lost quite a lot of weight. She was bony, haggard and her cheeks sunken.

Her skin wasn't as bright as it used to be. It was sickly pale, close to the color of a corpse.

"Auntie," Natalie shot up at once, greeting her.

She looked at Cecilia in unconcealable disbelief.

What on earth happened? How did Cecilia become like this?

Astonishment flashed across Cecilia's eyes when she saw Natalie.

After a while, she stretched out her hand and held Natalie's tightly. "Natalie, how have you been doing after all these years?"

Her voice croaked weakly, choked with sobs.

Natalie could feel that Cecilia's hand had only skin and bones left.

"Auntie, are you really alright?" Natalie asked, her expression was a mixture of alarm and concern.
