Tobias was taken aback by the obvious hatred in her eyes. He was rooted to the ground.

Natalie ignored Hayden's call and did not slow down for him.

She was too embarrassed by the incident earlier.

"Ouch!" Suddenly, Hayden cried out in pain.

Natalie's eyes widened.

His words tugged at her heart.
