After a long time, she finally uttered two words softly. "Thank you."

Her words gave rise to a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"Natalie, you don't have to thank me. I just hope that you can forgive me one day. I will try my best to make it up to you," Tobias said gently. Natalie's fingertips trembled.

She toughened up and replied, "Tobias, that's impossible. I will never forgive you."

A dimness flashed in Tobias' eyes, then disappeared quickly like a dragonfly skimming the water surface.

"I'm going to work. Have a good rest. If there's anything you need, let me know."

Natalie bit her lip and said nothing.

After watching Tobias leave, Natalie hauled herself upstairs, drained from the morning's events.

She opened the paper bag.

Inside was steaming coffee and warm, sugary donuts.

Natalie stared at the coffee and donuts.

Why did she accept his breakfast? She should have thrown it directly into the trash can.

Since she'd decided that they had to go their separate ways, she should have thrown it out...

Natalie heaved a huge sigh. She put the coffee and donuts in the fridge and cooked herself some noodles.

At noon, a heavy knock sounded at Natalie's door.

The knock was continuous and urgent with quick, sharp raps.

Natalie opened the door and saw Shaney standing outside.

Shaney looked very anxious as she asked, "Natalie, do you know what happened to Sebastian? He wouldn't have offended any gangs, would he?" Natalie was taken aback.

She immediately said, "Auntie, calm down for a moment. What happened?" Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
