My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 758

Natalie opened her eyes. There were clouds outside.

Tobias was sitting next to her.

"Why are we on a plane?!" Natalie immediately asked.

"Natalie, since we've already figured out your identity, we should head back now," said Tobias gently.

She became agitated instantly. "What do you mean we've already figured it out? I haven't yet!"

"Hasn't Jessie already told you everything?" In stark contrast to Natalie's distressed tone, Tobias' tone remained gentle.

Natalie became even more riled up. "I haven't asked her where that man named Santiago is! I want to see him!"

Natalie knew that as an officer, he had every reason to shoot her father, who was a special agent. However, that was from an outsider's perspective.

After all, she was said agent's daughter, and her mother had even committed suicide because of it.

How could Natalie look at this objectively?

Tobias fixed his gaze on Natalie, saying, "Natalie, tell me, why do you want to see him? Do you want to get revenge? The past is the past. Promise me that you'll let it go, alright?" Natalie bit down hard on her lips.

Why did she want to see the man named Santiago?

Was it for revenge? Definitely not.

She just wanted to ask Santiago whether killing her father was the only choice.

Did he know that the man he was killing had an expecting wife?

"I don't have a specific goal. I just want to meet him," answered Natalie stubbornly.

"Natalie, it's meaningless." Tobias looked at her.

Natalie felt a chill in her mind.

Dumbfounded, she looked at Tobias and said, "Tobias, you've changed. You always stood by me no matter what, but why is that not the case now? I just want to meet him. Why do you think that it's meaningless? I just want to ask this man named Santiago why he had to kill my father. Even if he was just a special agent, that doesn't mean that he could kill him just like that. I just want to see him and ask him all these things, is that not possible? Why must you send me back like this? I didn't even get to talk to Jessie much!"

After she finished, Natalie got up abruptly and said, "I want to get off the plane. Stop the plane, I want to get off! I want to look for Jessie. I still have a lot of things to say to her, and a lot of questions to ask." Tobias swiftly embraced Natalie.

He hugged her so tightly that she could not move at all. "Natalie, listen to me."

Tobias said sadly, "Santiago is a soldier. Shooting your father was his duty as a soldier. Your father was a special agent who wanted to kill someone who Santiago was protecting, that's why he shot your father. Natalie, this was a soldier's task and duty."

Natalie sobbed, saying, "I know that it's his duty, but was there really no other way other than shooting him to his death on the spot? There were clearly other less violent ways of dealing with it. Not to mention, my mother killed herself because of it. A family was ruined, just like that. Is Santiago so cold-blooded? Couldn't he have let my father go?"

Tobias' face turned pale.

"Natalie, don't get too agitated. The past is already gone, so calm down."

Natalie shook her head. "No, it's not. I must replace Santiago Lawson. I have to meet him and ask him, why did he have to be so merciless? He could've taken my father captive, or even shot other parts of his body, but why did he have to take his life?"

"Natalie."

"Tobias, where are you bringing me now? Where is the plane headed?!" Natalie suddenly glared at Tobias.

"Natalie, we're going back," Tobias said in a low voice. "You only came to figure out your identity. Now that it's clear, it's time for us to go back."

Natalie became teary-eyed. "Clear? What do you mean it's clear? I barely talked to Jessie for an hour, and you're bringing me back already? Tobias, what is the meaning of this?!"

Natalie simply could not understand why Tobias was bringing her back just like that.

There were still so many things that she had no idea about. She had only spoken a mere few sentences to Jessie, but she became too riled up and ended up getting sedated. Because of the sedative, she fell asleep.

However, once she fell asleep, Tobias brought her back, just like that.

He didn't even ask for her opinion.

Was this still the same Tobias who used to show her respect in every matter?

Even now, when she had so strongly made her stance, Tobias still didn't seem to take her side. Why did he seem so different after she woke up?

It was as if Tobias had transformed into a whole other person.

Natalie struggled with all her might.

She wanted to run forward to the cockpit. "I want to see the pilot. Tell him to turn around. I want to return to North Europe. I still have so many unanswered questions. I still have to replace Santiago." Tobias grabbed Natalie from behind.

In one swift motion, Natalie completely fell into his embrace.

He hugged her tightly.

"Let go of me, let go of me!" Natalie struggled desperately. Tobias didn't let go. Instead, he held onto her even tighter.

Natalie was so desperate that she bit Tobias' arm viciously. Tobias frowned in pain.

"Tobias, let go of me!" Natalie was getting increasingly flustered.

"Natalie, are you done? Stop your tantrum!" Tobias became stern.

Natalie was stunned.

She looked at Tobias in astonishment.

How long had it been since Tobias used such a stern tone to speak to her?

How? How did things suddenly become like this?

Before going to North Europe, he had still been so gentle and compromising with her.

However, in an instant, not only was he not on her side, he was against her and even used such a harsh tone to speak to her.

Suddenly, a thought appeared in Natalie's mind.

She stared at Tobias. "I know. You hate me now, don't you? You don't like me anymore."

Tobias' brows knitted deeper. "Natalie, what nonsense are you spouting?"

That further convinced Natalie of her own idea. "I get it. You hate me now. You were so nice to me before we went to North Europe, but now you've suddenly changed. You found out that my father was a secret agent, so now you hate me, right?"
