Chapter 111
Natalie replied immediately, "Just tell me what you need! I'll do whatever it takes."
"Get in the car." Tobias glanced at Natalie before getting into the car.
Natalie followed suit.
Tobias started the engine and he drove back to the Whitlock family apartment.
Natalie was pondering about what Tobias told her. What did he mean that she needed to help too?
She could not imagine that a nobody like her would play a role in the matter.
Natalie kept thinking about it but in the end, she gave up. She reached the conclusion that she would do whatever Tobias asked her. As long as she could help, she would do it even if she had to risk her life! There was no need to think so much!
After arriving at the apartment, Aunt Lee immediately rushed to embrace Natalie.
"Miss Godfrey, you scared me. I thought that something happened to you. I was really worried about you," Aunt Lee said sincerely and she did not look like she was lying. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
After spending time with Natalie, Aunt Lee knew that Natalie was very nice and she even treated Natalie like her own daughter.
Natalie felt guilty when she noticed Aunt Lee's reaction. She should never have lied to or worry Aunt Lee.
"Aunt Lee, I'm sorry. I won't do it again," Natalie apologized tearfully. Suddenly, it dawned on her that she was leading a
great life. She did not return the previous night and someone was worried about her. She felt like she was going to die of happiness.
What did she even do to deserve a life like that? Tobias sat down on the sofa. "Come here." Tobias glanced at Natalie who was
hugging and chatting with Aunt Lee. Natalie walked over to sit next to Tobias. "Tobias, you asked me to help but what should I do?
I will do anything you ask!"
The corner of Tobias' lips twitched.
Why did Natalie make it sound like he was going to send her to her death?
"Tell me about that woman," Tobias instructed flatly.
He only knew that the woman was a murderer but he did not know the details.
Natalie was furious when she heard Tobias'
question. Immediately, she told Tobias about
Yannah's situation.
As Natalie explained, she became very emotional and she even moved her hand frantically.
"Stop being so emotional. Is your hand okay?" Tobias glanced at Natalie's hand that was still supported with a splint.
Natalie was taken aback. She seemingly forgot about it. More importantly, it was not painful and the splint looked like a decoration.
"It doesn't hurt anymore," Natalie raised her hand and added, "I'll go to the hospital in the afternoon to remove the splint."
Tobias' eyes darkened. Natalie was tenacious and it took her no time to recover.
"That's what happened. Yannah.s husband deserved it, right? He's a b*stard!" Natalie concluded furiously.
"You just heard a one-sided story from her. How do you know if she's telling the truth?" Tobias retorted placidly.
Natalie was stunned.
It suddenly dawned on her that she just heard a one.sided story from Vannah.
However, she did not believe that Vannah lied to her.
"I don't think that she'll lie to me," Natalie insisted.
"You just met her. Are you sure that she won't lie to you? Natalie, humans are not as simple as you think." Tobias gazed at Natalie.
Natalie's eyelashes quivered. After a while, she stared at Tobias seriously and replied, "Tobias, I know that humans can be difficult to understand. I know that there are many bad guys too but that doesn't mean that we should deny every kind.hearted person in this world. We shouldn't assume that everyone is lying to us as well."
Her solemn look made Tobias's heart skip a beat. As he got to know her better, he realized that the girl was a rare gem.
It was rare for someone like her to have a good heart after growing up in a harsh environment.
Tobias made a phone call. After a while, he put down his mobile phone.
"Natalie, you're right. That woman didn't lie to you. She murdered her husband because her husband abused her and killed her son."
Natalie's eyes lit up.
Her tone was joyful as she spoke, "Tobias, I told you! I knew that Vannah wouldn't lie to me. Although I just met her, I believe that she wouldn't lie to me!"
Tobias' eyes flickered as he watched her animated face.
Natalie was adorable.
Tobias met a lot of women but he had never met a woman like Natalie
"Tobias, we must help her, right? She had a miserable life. Tell me how I can help and I'll do anything!" Natalie recovered from her excitement and stared at Tobias solemnly.
Tobias' eyes glimmered.
In truth, there was no need for Natalie to participate because she would not be able to help.
Yet, Tobias wanted to involve her because he did not want her to feel burdened mentally.
He wanted to let Natalie know that he was not the sole contributor and she played a part in the matter too. Of course, he wanted Natalie to build up her confidence slowly too.
As the saying goes, Rome was not built in a day. He wanted to build up Natalie's confidence gradually and let Natalie escape her past.
Tobias stared at Natalie and replied, "Natalie, it's normal for murderers to pay for their crimes with their lives. Even if the woman isn't sentenced to death, she's still going to get life imprisonment."
Natalie froze.
"But it was her husband's fault. He was a b*stard!" Natalie was so emotional and she could not speak properly.
"Natalie, it's the law!"
Natalie's eyes dimmed. After a while, she looked up to stare at Tobias again and asked, "Tobias, I know you could do something, right? You must have a solution .11
She knew very well that many influential figures in the country could disregard the laws.
"Have you ever heard of public opinion interfering with verdicts?" Tobias suddenly asked.
Natalie was taken aback.
After a while, she shook her head. She never heard about it.
"There was a case that happened abroad. A seventeen-year-old suspect snuck into a house. Back then, the victim's husband went out and the victim was at home on her own. The suspect forced himself on the victim and murdered her. Later, the victim's husband reported it to the police but the suspect was a minor, so he was acquitted on all counts."
