Tobias smiled. "Maybe the smoke likes you more." Natalie thought it made sense.

She was obviously more down-to-earth among the two of them, so smoke and soot would definitely be more attracted to her.

And Tobias was more god-like. Smoke and soot wouldn't like him.

Because of the conversation, the atmosphere between the two of them relaxed.

Tobias suggested taking a walk in the park.

Natalie didn't refuse.

They drove to a park nearby, stopped the car, and went for a walk.

The cool night breeze brought a lot of people for a park stroll as well. Aside from and children and the elderly, there were also many couples in the park, all of whom were walking hand in hand. From time to time, lovebirds would pass by Tobias and Natalie.

Natalie felt her heart jolt as she watched these lovebirds.

She felt that it was time for her to speak her mind.

"Tobias." Natalie pretended to speak casually. "I gave it some thought, and...you're right. It's time to give Hayden a proper family."

She deliberately hid her nervousness with a nonchalant expression. "Hayden truly does need a family with a father and a mother."

A hint of joy flashed across Tobias' eyes.

Although Natalie's attitude the past two days had given him some clues, but at this moment, it still gave Tobias great joy to hear Natalie say so herself.

He took Natalie's hand in his.

Natalie's fingertips trembled for a moment, but she looked ahead as if nothing had happened.
