Tobias' father wasn't present. He wasn't in the country, and because his health wasn't too good, they'd kept Tobias' accident from him.

After Tobias' recovery, Cecilia had accepted Natalie again, but Peter hadn't.

He was still extremely prejudiced against Natalie.

When he saw the way Natalie and Tobias' hands were clasped together, it annoyed him to no end.

He firmly believed that Natalie was a menace. Though Tobias was fine now, there was no guaranteeing that there wouldn't be a similar incident in the future. Therefore, he invited Yuna to attend their family dinner as well.

Yuna was dressed in a white dress. She looked elegant and pretty, just like a typical daughter of a rich family.

Peter's solemn expression immediately lit up as soon as he saw Yuna.

He warmly greeted her and invited her to sit beside him. "Yuna, come sit by me! I left this seat for you."

Yuna flashed a practiced smile. "Thank you,

Grandpa Peter."

On the other hand, Natalie's eyelashes fluttered a little.

She knew a little about Yuna's background.

Peter liked Yuna very much, and he was trying his best to matchmake her and Tobias.

Though Natalie knew that Tobias had no feelings for Yuna, she felt a little uncomfortable at the fact that she was invited to a family gathering.

Just when she was lost in her thoughts, Tobias suddenly turned to look at her.

She could feel his deep gaze boring into her soul.

His eyes were filled with all kinds of emotions as if conveying thousands of words at once.

It was obvious that he only had eyes for her.

When they locked eyes, Natalie suddenly felt secure and solid, as if he was her anchor.
