Natalie's eyelashes trembled violently.
This was not the first time Tobias had helped her.
Previously, she had always felt grateful.
However, this time, she felt something else besides gratitude.
It turned out that she and Tobias lived in two completely different worlds.
In this shopping mall, she could only be surrounded and framed.
And Tobias was the one who called the shots.
There was such a big gap between the two of them.
Natalie slowly stood up, and she also helped James up.
"Thank you," Natalie said to Tobias in a low voice.
She then took James' hand, and was about to leave.
"Natalie, I'll get someone to send you back."
"No." Natalie lowered her gaze. "Tobias, I'm ashamed enough as it is. Can you leave me with my last bit of dignity?"
Tobias felt a jolt in his heart.
Natalie took James' hand and left.
Every step she took made her feel exhausted.
Countless images flashed through her mind, and it felt like she'd gone back in time to five years ago.
Five years ago, she was still a freshman. She was an extremely naive and immature girl.
Back then, she had been in dire straits, and was sold off to an idiot by Madison. When she looked for Tobias for help, they had a one night stand. Then, because of Cecilia, Natalie had somehow gotten married to Tobias. From then on, she had ascended to wealth, and her fate had changed. However, it was not like a fairy tale where the prince and the princess would live happily ever after.
Because fairy tales were just fairy tales in the end.
And she was not a princess.
Natalie's heart was filled with misery.
At this moment, her situation was in stark contrast to that of Tobias, who called the shots.
