Natalie heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Simon."
"Tobias is my friend, it's what I should do. But Miss Godfrey, there is something I still want to say." Simon couldn't help it. "I'm not going to comment on all the twists and turns you two have been through, because everybody has their own opinions. However, I just want you to know that Tobias really is a catch."
Natalie's eyes sparkled faintly.
"I know," she replied.
At the same time, she gave a soft sigh from the bottom of her heart.
How could she not know that Tobias was indeed a rare, good man?
But she'd already been deeply harmed once, and she was afraid of going through something like that again. Natalie had to admit that she was too selfish, and that she was scared of getting hurt again.
Moreover, she had already gotten herself into a dead end. There was no way out.
After finishing their call with Simon, Tobias returned.
As promised, he brought back a box of steaming fresh croissants.
Natalie casually put the box on the table. "I suddenly don't feel like eating it anymore."
Tobias coaxed her good-naturedly. "Natalie, when I got there, they'd already sold out. I had to ask them to bake some fresh ones. The owner said that they taste best when they're fresh. Come on, give it a try."
His eyes were as clear as a pool, reflecting Natalie's face. He was so focused on her, as if she was only one person left in the world.
This kind of gaze was irresistible, making people feel like their entire hearts, minds and souls were wrapped in unconditional gentleness.
It was cozy, snug, and comfortable.
"Okay then," Natalie answered in a low voice.
Tobias held a croissant close to Natalie's lips.
Natalie opened her mouth and chewed off a small bite.
It was still warm. It truly tasted much better than when it had cooled off.
Natalie's heart rippled.
No wonder Tobias had been gone for so long. It turned out that the croissants had already been sold out, and Tobias had waited for the shop to make a new batch. "How does it taste?" Tobias stared at Natalie, his eyes twinkling.
