Chapter 8
Tobias's lips curved into a smile.
"This woman is an interesting one." he thought.
"I didn't seduce you though. You look so ugly that my stomach churned at first glance." Natalie rebutted maliciously.
She was thinking about taking revenge on the man in front of her.
She couldn't defeat him in a fight, so she was trying to hurt him with words.
However, it was a little preposterous to say that such a handsome man was ugly.
She was waiting for the man to lose his temper.
However, the man's expression didn't change in the slightest. "If you think I'm ugly, then so be it."
Natalie's insult was like a fist hitting soft cotton; it didn't have any effect.
"There's a trash can in front of you. If you want to throw up, make sure to do it to your heart's content." Tobias said in a clear and cold voice.
"You!" Natalie was extremely angry.
Tobias stood up.
"Leaving behind the check in the hotel won't earn you the chance to be noticed by me. If you regret doing that, you still have the chance to go back on your decision. Take it as my compensation towards you." There was a hint of aloofness in his calm voice.
"Who cares about his check!"
"I don't need that!" Natalie spelled each word carefully, "Treat that as a payment for a gigolo!"
She was waiting for the man to lose his cool in front of her.
However, Tobias gave Natalie a faint look and said, "When you can afford to pay the amount on my check, then I'll consider your words."
After saying that, Tobias strode away.
Natalie was so angry that her heart was seething with frustration.
She had always been sharp-tongued, and she rarely admitted defeat in a verbal dispute.
However, this man's tongue was even sharper than hers, and he remained calm and unperturbed. No matter what she said, he would rebound them in poise.
"This person is someone to be reckoned with," Natalie thought.
At this moment however, she didn't have the luxury to play with her thoughts. The alarm on her mobile phone sounded, reminding her that she had to continue working two hours later.
Natalie wanted to earn her own living expenses and tuition fees, so she tried her best to work during the summertime.
During the day, she was a worker at the coffee farm, and at night, she would go to the bar to sell wine. The wine bar Natalie was working in was relatively legitimate, but there were also a lot of unscrupulous people visiting the bar.
She was almost taken advantage of last time as she was just a step away from being molested when she was working there.
The next time she went there again for work, she paid more attention to her surroundings and dressed up carefully.
She stuffed her set of clothes she would be changing to directly into her bag. After coming out from the changing room of the coffee farm, Natalie looked like a completely different person.
She wore a thick, curly and red wig and her eyebrows were thick. She painted her lips sloppily, in a color not unlike that of a monkey's bottom.
She wore one black shoe on one foot and one white shoe on the other.
When Natalie came out, Sebastian happened to emerge from the men's changing room.
"Natalie, are you heading to your wine-selling job now?" Sebastian greeted her.
Sebastian had changed out of his work clothes, and he looked elegant and gentle at the moment.
"Yes..." Natalie responded.
"Be careful then," Sebastian said.
He knew that Natalie was almost taken advantage of in the hotel last time. It was his idea to bring several tall male classmates to help her out.
"You can rest assured with me looking like this." Natalie pointed to her head in the red wig.
Sebastian smiled knowingly.
He was relieved to see Natalie's camouflage.
After leaving the coffee farm, Tobias received a phone call.
"Mother." Tobias's voice was faint.
Cecilia Lawson was Tobias' biological mother.
"Tobias, you must attend a blind date today." The woman's elegant and noble voice came from the other end of the phone. "Your partner is the only daughter of the Asawn Group family..."
"Mother, I told you I don't like blind dates." Tobias interrupted Cecilia.
