Tobias was a little perplexed.

Since it was related to Cecilia's previous relationships, Tobias could not reveal too much to Peter.

He could only say, "Grandpa, I can't explain it to you in such a short time, but it was an undoubtedly severe conflict, so severe that we almost missed out on each other. Natalie's a little childish, and she's not too good at playing mind games, which is why she ended up doing something silly. But it's all in the past now, and if it doesn't matter to me, it shouldn't matter to you as well, Grandpa."

"Childish? She's a scheming woman!" Peter huffed.

Tobias said firmly, "If Natalie really is a scheming woman like you say, would your grandson be so utterly smitten with her? Why would she need to get mixed up with another man? If she truly were a scheming woman, she'd do whatever that benefited her the most. However, it's obvious that she hasn't."

Tobias paused and looked into Peter's eyes. "Grandpa, with your intelligence and experience,

I'm sure all this would be obvious to you."

Peter suddenly fell silent.

He suddenly thought of the apartment where Natalie lived.

It was old and worn out. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He supposed it was true that if she were a scheming woman, she would've made things work in her favour instead of causing so much trouble for herself. She was even staying in such a worn out apartment. But if she wasn't trying to get something out of this, why'd she done such outrageous things?

Peter felt that a little confused as well.

After a long time, he looked at Tobias and asked, "Tobias, do you really want to be with that woman?"

"Yes." His voice was steady, without any hesitation.

"Actually, Yuna is better, and..."

"Grandpa!" Tobias cut him off. "I will only want one woman in my life, and that's Natalie. I don't want anyone other than her."

Peter's heart skipped a beat.

He could tell from Tobias' eyes that there was no room for resistance.

Peter was silent for a long time.

"I'll stay here for a day. Think about it and tell me the answer tomorrow."
