Natalie's heart started beating frantically once she heard Tobias' questioning tone.
She was confused as to why she couldn't answer him.
After taking a deep breath, she answered, "It doesn't matter."
"It does. It is very important to me," Tobias's deepset eyes were fixed on her face.
"I don't want to talk about this nonsense anymore."
"Natalie..."
"I'm leaving."
Natalie's mind was in a mess. She could not stand here and keep up with her pretenses anymore. She could only find peace if she left.
Just then, a taxi drove by.
Natalie hurriedly waved to the driver. She immediately opened the door when the taxi stopped.
Tobias rushed forwards and held the door open, "Natalie, let me send you home!"
Natalie ignored him and hopped into the car, "Let's
go."
"You're not allowed to go," Tobias snapped at the driver.
The taxi driver took a glance at Tobias and realized that he was no ordinary man. Tobias' presence had intimidated him so much that he did not dare to drive away. Natalie shot Tobias a disdainful glare.
"Don't you have something else to do, Mr. Whitlock? You've been stalking me all day long!"
Tobias's face paled.
"Can I go now?" She met his gaze.
Tobias saw the determination in Natalie's eyes.
His eyes dimmed in disappointment.
He had waited so long for her to regain her memories.
He thought that as long as she remembered everything, the two of them would reconcile, and they would live happily ever after together with Hayden. However, Tobias never expected Natalie to be so cruel.
