Natalie lowered her voice. "However, Auntie, don't tell Tobias about this. You know how women hate losing face."

Cecilia laughed. "Fine, fine. I won't tell Tobias about your regrets, and I'll make sure he remembers all the hardships he had to go through to get you back so that he'll treat you like a treasure for the rest of his life."

Natalie couldn't help but grin at Cecilia's words.

Once matters like these were resolved, the knot in her heart suddenly untangled as well.

With Cecilia and Natalie's teamwork, scrumptious dishes were brought to the table one by one.

Just as Natalie was serving the last dish, Hayden came home.

He had a huge watermelon in his arms.

When Cecilia saw Hayden bring back yet another melon, her head ached.

Hayden was happier than usual to see Natalie. He ran up to her and presented the watermelon to her like it was a valuable treasure. "Natalie, do you know what this is?" "It's a watermelon." Natalie patted Hayden's head.

Hayden shook his head. "No, no, it's not just a simple watermelon. It's a melon with a story."

Natalie was speechless.

It was the first time that she had heard of melons having stories as well.

Amused, she asked, "Why does this melon have a story?"

Hayden lifted the watermelon with great effort. "Look at what's written on it."

Natalie took a closer look.

On the huge watermelon, the words "Melon Whitlock" were written on it.

Natalie was speechless.

When she was about to say something, she suddenly met Hayden's eyes, which were sincerely asking for approval.

Natalie felt as if something had gently knocked on her heart.

At this moment, she had a sudden feeling of enlightenment.
