Natalie melted into Tobias's embrace the familiar feeling of his arms wrapping around her.

However, she reminded herself of her painful past.

How could her suffering be resolved with only a few apologies?

Those who could forgive easily were not hurt deeply enough.

She shoved Tobias away.

"You feel guilty because you asked for it, Tobias Whitlock. As much as I want to sympathize with me, this can never compare to the pain that I have suffered because of you!" Tobias's expression paled when he heard her words.

He thought that if he told Natalie the truth, she would forgive him. He did not expect her to be so firm.

"Natalie, there's still time," Tobias said after pausing for a while. He raised his head to meet her eyes.

His gaze lingered on her face.

He stared at Natalie, as though she was the only woman left for him in the entire world.

"I will slowly win your heart back, Natalie. One day, you will see my true love for you," Tobias declared. His voice was gruff and tired.

Natalie turned her head away to avoid his gaze.

The look in his eyes made her heart ache.

"No, I won't," Natalie insisted.

Hurt flashed across Tobias' face.

He took a deep breath and muttered, "Have a good evening, Natalie. I won't bother you anymore."

When he swung open the door and stepped out of the apartment, Selina came in.

She was carrying a huge bag in her hand. The delicious smell of food wafted in the air.

"Where are you going?" Selina was surprised to see Tobias leaving.
