Chapter 25
"Benjamin," Tobias called out to Benjamin, who was sitting in the driver's seat.
"Yes, Mr. Whitlock," Benjamin immediately understood what Tobias wanted and replied him.
He handed Madison a cheque of 500,000 dollars.
When she saw the amount on the cheque, Madison was so excited that she almost fainted.
After that, the Mercedes Benz and Aston Martin vehicles exited the community.
Sarah was stunned for a while. She could not figure out why a prominent figure like Tobias would fall in love with Natalie.
She really wanted to vent her anger.
On second thought, the people in front of her were Natalie's family members. Currently, being married to Tobias, Natalie enjoyed an equal footing with him in power and influence.
The situation was that as Natalie had obtained such a status, the people around her would benefit greatly as well.
Sarah left the scene angrily.
After Sarah left, Queenie patted Madison's shoulder heavily and said, "Mum, don't act like a miser. I'll marry a wealthy man in the future too. I'll even give you five million dollars, let alone five hundred thousand dollars!" Madison quickly put away the cheque. She said, "Yes, yes, you're much more beautiful than Natalie, that b*tch. I'm not worried about you at all; you can definitely look for a better man in the future. He'l be richer than Natalie's husband!"
Madison only learnt that this man was not Sebastian after what had happened. Instead, he was a very rich man.
However, she was not aware of just how rich he actually was.
Queenie's face darkened.
Did her mother mean that she would be able to marry someone richer? No matter how rich that person was, he would not be able to surpass Tobias.
When the thought that Natalie had hooked up with Tobias came to her mind, Queenie was so angry that she almost dug her nails into her skin.
"Let's go and have a good meal," Madison was over the moon after receiving the sum of five hundred thousand dollars and she happily suggested.
Unfortunately, no one responded to her. Queenie was furious, while Brayden seemed to be in deep thought about something.
Since his sister's husband was Tobias, then that would make him Tobias' brother-in-law!
Being the brother-in-law of the wealthiest man in Agaphen City, he could get himself as many beautiful women as he would want in the future. Getting married would not be a major problem for him anymore! When he understood what was awaiting him, Brayden showed a lascivious smile on his lips.
"Where are you taking me to? Are we heading to your house?" After a moment of silence, Natalie asked.
Tobias threw a meaningful glance at her as if signifying that she was thinking too much.
"We're going to the Themyscira Apartment." Tobias replied, "We only agreed to get married on paper. We don't need to live together."
Natalie heaved a sigh of relief.
It was great that they did not have to live together!
However, the Themyscira apartment was one of the best residential areas in Agaphen City, and the housing prices there were exorbitantly high.
"Do you want me to live there in the future? Can I stay in another place? This place is too expensive. I'm afraid I'll....."
"This isn't something you need to worry about," Tobias interrupted Natalie. "As my wife, I have a responsibility to provide you with food, clothes, accommodation and transportation," he continued. Nonetheless, Natalie felt inexplicably uneasy.
She was really not used to the fact that she had to accept all of this without putting in any hard work.
He seemed to have seen through Natalie's thoughts, Tobias' gaze deepened. He said, "If you feel undeserving, you can repay me with your body."
"No," Natalie was shocked.
Tobias' lips curled into a faint smile and said, "You don't have to feel shy or ashamed. Otherwise, you'll only make your life difficult."
Natalie was a smart person and she immediately understood what Tobias meant.
She had to learn to take everything in stride. Otherwise, she would just make life difficult for herself.
"You aren't so bad," Natalie could not help but smile.
"It's nothing. We have a deal to abide by and both of us will take what we need," Tobias replied flatly.
"Don't worry. As your wife, I'll cooperate with you in all aspects of life."
"You just need to cooperate with me to deal with my mother."
"Is there anything else? For example, will you need me to accompany you to attend some events and functions?" Natalie asked.
