Natalie sighed.

Meanwhile, Tobias continued, "That was why when he saw that Selina was nearly taken advantage of, he was totally unable to control himself. Natalie, it's not just him. I'm the same..." His gaze was firmly fixed on Natalie's face. "If anyone were to try and assault you, even if they didn't succeed, I'd take out a gun too, because it'd be impossible for me to calm down at a time like that."

Natalie's heart was full of mixed emotions.

After a while, she said in a low voice, "It's a pity that Selina doesn't like Matthew. No matter how well he treats her and how much he cares for her, Selina still doesn't like him. Since that's the case, there's nothing he can do."

Tobias smiled bitterly. "That's right, there's nothing he can do if she doesn't like him."

In the past, he had tried his best to set Matthew and Selina up as well. He thought that she would eventually be moved and fall in love with Matthew. After all, Matthew really was a good person.

However, he was now convinced that feelings were not something that could be forced. Feelings could not spark just by moving one's heart.

If Selina did not like Matthew, then that was just how it was. No matter what, she would not like him.

That was why Tobias no longer wished for them to be together.

Meanwhile, Natalie's arms suddenly wrapped around Tobias' waist, and there was some gratefulness in her tone as she said, "Luckily we like each other, Tobias."

A gentle smile flashed across Tobias' eyes. "Yeah."

Natalie's belly had grown big. When she wrapped her arms around his waist, her bulging belly poked him.

His eyes fell on her stomach. "Natalie, do you know why the baby in your belly hasn't been born yet?"

Natalie smiled helplessly.

Who knew?

She was clearly close to her estimated date of delivery, but the baby in her womb was taking its sweet time. It made no movement.

Natalie touched her stomach and said, "I don't know either, but the doctor said that even if the estimated date of delivery has passed, as long as the heartbeat and amniotic fluid are normal, then it's fine..." At this point, she paused. "Maybe our baby feels too comfortable in my belly and doesn't want to come out."

Tobias chuckled. "This child... Does it not want to meet us at all?"

The corner of Natalie's lips raised as well. "It's okay. Even if we have to wait a little more, it's a good thing. The process of waiting itself is beautiful."

Tobias nodded, and there was a faint twinkle in his eyes. "That's right, Natalie. Being with you, every day is full of waiting, and every day is beautiful."

Upon hearing Tobias' words, Natalie's lips curled into a happy smile.
