"Okay, I'll take you."
After dropping Natalie off, Tobias left for the company.
When Natalie opened the door, she saw James sitting on the sofa, seemingly in a daze.
"Dad." Natalie called out.
James came to his senses, snapping back to reality.
His gaze fell on Natalie's face. "Natalie, you're back."
Natalie changed into her slippers and said, "Dad, have you had breakfast?"
James nodded, "I went out for some eggs and toast this morning."
Natalie sat down next to him. "What did you want to talk to me about last night?"
James shifted his gaze. "Natalie, I want to go see the sea tomorrow. Can you come with me?"
Natalie agreed at once. "Okay."
James breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, why'd you suddenly want to go see the sea?"
Natalie asked casually.
James' lips moved, but no sound was uttered.
After a while, he looked into Natalie's eyes. "Natalie, I have something to ask you."
It was rare for James to look so serious, so Natalie was a little taken aback.
"Go ahead."
"If you had the chance to see Queenie, would you apologize to her?"
Natalie's eyelashes trembled.
"Dad, do you know what Queenie did to me? She..." Natalie gritted her teeth. "She almost had me killed."
James' face paled.
