It was a call from Sebastian. They'd exchanged phone numbers earlier.

Natalie hesitated for a moment, because she thought of what Tobias said.

After a while, she felt that she was overthinking.

Natalie picked up the phone.

"Natalie, where are you?" Sebastian sounded a little anxious.

"I'm at my place, alone," Natalie said.

Sebastian heaved a sigh of ease at Natalie's reply. "I'm afraid of him. I'm afraid he might do something bad to you. I was just thinking about whether I should call the police."

Natalie felt a little helpless. At the same time, she felt that the whole situation was a little funny and the corners of her mouth twitched.

He was still too naive.

Arrest Tobias?

She was afraid that the police would put Sebastian in handcuffs first.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Natalie comforted. She also did not want Sebastian worrying about her.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.

"Sebastian, what's the matter?"

On the other end, he stammered hesitantly. "Natalie, Mr. Whitlock is not suitable for you."

Natalie's gaze froze slightly.

Seconds later, she answered a little bitterly, "Sebastian, I don't need you to remind me of this. I know, I know that he is not suitable for me. He and I are not from the same world, I can see that." She used to be blindfolded, but now she could see this fact clearly.

She'd finally managed to see the truth after all her tears and blood, as well as all her years of torture and pain.

When it came to Tobias, Natalie didn't want to bring the topic further.

She rubbed the space between her eyebrows. "Sebastian, if there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up."
