Cecilia's eyes instantly lit up at the mention of Hayden. "Hayden is enjoying every single day here! I was even thinking of letting him start going to kindergarten in the United States, but Natalie definitely wouldn't be able to get used to living here. He'll have to follow the two of you back to Glevania."

Cecilia paused for a while and continued, "And your father, too; even though he doesn't say anything outright, I can see that he really adores Hayden as well."

"I see," Tobias replied in acknowledgment, but a thought flickered in his mind.

"By the way, how's Natalie?" Cecilia asked.

"She's fine," Tobias answered in a low tone.

"How're your wedding preparations going?"

"We're working on it."

"Let me know if you need help. I should've come back to help you prepare, but you know that your father is back now, so I have to keep him company." "I understand, Mom."

Cecilia suddenly realized that she had talked to Tobias about so many things, but had forgotten about her original purpose of calling him.

"By the way, Tobias, what were you talking about earlier on? Why did you suddenly mention your grandfather?"

Tobias' maternal grandfather had passed away a long time ago.

"Mom, Grandpa used to be a United States army officer. Was he once tasked with guarding a senior officer?" Tobias finally asked.

Cecilia found it strange.

Why would Tobias ask such a question all of a sudden?

"Yes, it made headlines in the newspapers," Cecilia said. "There was a spy who tried to assassinate the senior official whom your grandfather was guarding, so he was shot dead on the spot by your grandfather. This was a huge incident back then. You were still young at that time, so you probably had no idea about it."

Tobias' heart instantly sank.

His brows were tightly knitted, and his eyes became as deep as the boundless sea.

So, it was true.

Then, was Natalie really the daughter of the man who was shot dead?

If so, then he and Natalie...

Tobias suddenly did not dare to think about it any further.

He suddenly remembered why Natalie had felt oddly familiar the first time he saw her.

Was this fate?

Tobias felt perplexed.
