Chapter 34
Natalie sighed in her heart. There was no doubt that she was Tobias' mother, otherwise, how could she still look so beautiful at her age?
"Natalie." Cecilia's voice was very soft.
"Auntie." Natalie felt nervous in front of the beautiful woman.
"You're still calling me auntie?" Cecilia retorted.
Natalie was taken aback.
"It's 'mom'," Tobias whispered in Natalie's ear.
"Mom." Natalie's face was stiff.
Cecilia smiled gently. She scanned Natalie thoroughly and she liked what she saw.
It was Cecilia's first time seeing Natalie in regular clothes since the time she first met her in her strange attire. Therefore, she was overjoyed even though Natalie just wore her usual clothes.
"What do you want to eat?" Cecilia handed the menu to Natalie.
"Auntie... Mom... I think you should order the food." Natalie pushed the menu back to Cecilia hurriedly.
Cecilia patted Natalie's hand and comforted, "You should do it. Today, you are the new daughter-in- law of our family, so you should decide. Don't hesitate and order anything you like."
Cecilia's tone was very gentle and warm, which eased Natalie's nerves. She flipped open the menu but she was stunned by the contents.
They were all in French and she could not understand most of the words printed on the menu. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Although she took French in college, the jargon on the menu was too complicated...
Natalie looked troubled as she stared at the menu.
Tobias took the menu from her composedly and asked, "Flow about a Filet Mignon? Natalie, how would you like your steak?"
Flow would she like her steak...
Natalie flushed. It was very normal for girls to enjoy steak in a fine dining restaurant.
Flowever, Natalie had never been to a fancy restaurant, much less have the opportunity to try steak. She did not even understand Tobias' question.
"Medium-rare," Tobias said to the waiter.
Fie could tell that Natalie was embarrassed with herself, hence he decided to help her out of the predicament.
Cecilia ordered some food for herself too. The food was served quickly, probably because they were the only ones in the restaurant.
Steaks, salads, soups and desserts occupied every inch of space on their table.
Tobias and Cecilia intended to taste their steak and Natalie forced herself to mimic their movements.
"Pfft..." A piece of steak drew a beautiful arc in the air before landing on the floor.
Cecilia was stunned.
Natalie's face was as red as a cherry. She had never cut steak before, so she was very nervous. However, the more nervous she got, the more she messed up.
"Natalie, look at you, you are being naughty again." Tobias gently patted Natalie's face.
His remark was able to resolve Natalie's embarrassment smoothly.
Naturally, Cecilia knew what was going on but she pretended that nothing happened.
Tobias cut a small piece of steak with his knife and placed it at Natalie's lips with his fork. He murmured, "Here, let your husband feed you."
Of course, Natalie knew that Tobias did not want her to be embarrassed or he could be putting on an act for Cecilia too. She opened her mouth as requested.
The piece of steak was moist and the aroma of meat filled her mouth.
"The steak's so delicious," Natalie thought, "it's much more delicious than the beef dishes we always have at home."
Following that, Tobias fed Natalie small cubes of steak until she finished her portion.
After dinner, Cecilia proposed to visit their new house.
Tobias drove them to Themyscira Apartment composedly. It was obvious that there were no mens belongings in the apartment.
"Tobias, you haven't moved in?" Cecilia was a little upset.
"I was just planning to move in," Tobias replied calmly.
"This is your new house? It's so small and inelegant. Are you sure this is your new place?" Cecilia questioned.
