SWNOVELS Chapter 44
He looked cold and aloof under the night sky.
He was just standing there casually but he looked elegant like a king. He had an overwhelming aura and extraordinary temperament.
Benjamin walked to Tobias respectfully and said, "Mr. Whitlock, I've notified Aunt Lee that you'll be in Themyscira Apartment today." Tobias nodded and said, "Let's go."
"Yes, Mr. Whitlock."
The airport was a distance away from Themyscira Apartment and it was almost nine at night when they arrived.
"Sir, didn't Miss Godfrey come back with you?" Aunt Lee could not help but ask when she noticed that Tobias returned on his own.
Tobias frowned discreetly. He did not inform Natalie that he would be coming back.
"Miss Godfrey just went out earlier and I thought she was going to pick you up. I guess she must have gone out for something else." Aunt Lee immediately understood the situation and hurried to provide an explanation.
Tobias nodded and replied, "Go ahead and rest."
Tobias dealt with work on his computer after Aunt Lee called it a night. Soon, the clock turned ten.
Although they were just pretending to be a married couple, Tobias felt that it was getting late and he should ask where that woman was.
He dialed Natalie's mobile phone but no one answered.
Tobias was inexplicably annoyed. He paced back and forth in the large living room.
Unintentionally, his eyes were attracted by a box on the sofa. The box was opened and a picture of a seductive woman was pasted on it. Tobias picked up the box and there was a courier form next to it. It showed that the recipient was Natalie and it had just arrived.
There was a note in the box and Tobias' eyes turned cold and dangerous when he read it. "Lovely Romance Lingerie Shop. Satisfying all your needs. Men would go crazy for you."
"Find out where Natalie is now." Tobias quickly phoned Benjamin.
He got his answer shortly after. It turned out that Natalie was in the bar where they met previously.
Natalie found it strange. The business was not only doing well but there were always men whistling at her.
She touched her face. She was dressed terribly, so why were there still men whistling at her?
She kept thinking about it. It seemed that what she read on the Internet was a lie, and fishnet stockings would not help her repel men. Natalie decided to end her work early and she walked at the entrance of the bar with a few bottles of wine. Immediately, she stopped short.
An Aston Martin was parked in front of the bar and Tobias just got out of it.
The dim light shone on him and he looked cold with a hint of anger etched on his handsome face.
Tobias' dark eyes were fixated on Natalie, who just came out. His perfect face was suffocating anyone who lay eyes on him, like the calm before a storm. Natalie's throat was dry.
Why did she feel like Tobias just caught her cheating on him?
She clearly did not do anything wrong!
Natalie was uneasy. It was probably because Tobias prohibited her from selling alcohol but she did it without listening to him.
"You are here..." Natalie laughed wryly.
Tobias glanced at her before getting into the car.
Natalie followed him guiltily.
Tobias noticed that Natalie was holding bottles of wine when she got in the car. Instantly, he snatched the bottles and threw them out of the window.
"Crack!"
The bottles smashed against the ground with a crisp sound and a viscous pool of liquid formed on the ground.
"Why did you throw away my wine!" Natalie shouted.
Those bottles were worth thousands of dollars! She had to sell a lot of wine to earn it but Tobias just threw them out!
