Cecilia passed a gold credit card to Natalie. "Natalie, Tobias' father saw you, and he approves of you. This is his gift to you."

Cecilia's voice was gentle.

Natalie was at a loss for words.

She was in a daze. From beginning till end, other than that one glance, Rudopth had not said a single word to her and approved of her just like that.

Seeing that Natalie didn't take the card, Cecilia directly stuffed it into her hand, saying, "Natalie, you may not be used to it, but that's how Tobias' father is. He's all about his work, and he doesn't speak much to anyone aside from me. He's like this with Peter and Tobias as well. Please don't mind him."

"Auntie, of course I don't mind." Natalie quickly expressed her stance.

Cecilia smiled gently and said, "That's good. Now that the whole family is back, let's wait till the guests have all left, and we'll gather for a cup of tea."

Natalie nodded.

She suddenly thought of something and asked somewhat nervously, "Auntie, Uncle doesn't dislike me, does he?" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Although Cecilia had just said that Rudopth approved of her, Natalie was afraid that she was just being polite.

Cecilia said affirmatively, "Natalie, don't worry, he doesn't."

Natalie's heart was finally at ease.

It seemed that Tobias' father was a rather strange man.

Later that night, the guests had all left.

Mr. Whitlock liked to drink tea. Now that the Whitlock family members were all present, everyone kept Peter company and gathered around a huge round table for some tea together.

Truth be told, Natalie felt like that birthday celebration had been more of a social gathering, or even a ball, rather than a celebration.

However, now that the celebration was over and the Whitlock family was gathered for tea, Natalie finally felt like they were actually celebrating Peter's birthday.
