My Heart only Beats for You

Hayden looked at Peter and asked in a light tone, "Great-grandpa, why does Daddy have to meet with Yuna?" Peter suddenly becunhappy. "How can you refer to her as Yuna?" Hayden stuck out his tongue.

He'd wanted to call her a b*tch at first, but greatgrandpa seemed to like this Yuna a lot, so Hayden held back. Yuna helped Hayden out. "Grandpa, it's fine. I find Hayden adorable. It's not a big deal if he callsby my ndirectly." After saying that, she smiled at Hayden and cooed, "Hayden, what do you think?" Although Yuna's tone sounded sickly sweet, Hayden had goosebumps all over his body.

He felt like her smile was just there for show.

It never reached her eyes.

Peter looked at Hayden very seriously. "Hayden, Yuna is going to marry Tobias in the future. You can't call her njust like that. It's impolite and out of order." Hayden's jaw dropped.

What? This b*tch was going to be with his father? Was she going to be his stepmother? Then what about Natalie? Natalie and Daddy were a match made in heaven! On the other hand, Yuna was a little flustered by Peter's words.

After all, she was just a young lady.

Yuna's face turned slightly red as she said, "Grandpa, you're saying such a thing when we haven't even met yet..." Peter looked very assured. "What are you talking about? I've already given my blessings, haven't I?" Cecilia walked aside and said nothing.

Peter was too confident in himself...

Hayden quietly slipped away from the table.

Making sure no one spotted him, he darted into his bedroom and dialed Natalie's number.

At this time, Natalie had already gotten up and was getting ready to leave.

Yvonne called her the night before, saying that she had found her a job. It was an in-house French translator, and the salary offered was quite high.

Natalie was just about to step out of her apartment when she received a phone call from Hayden.

"Natalie, something bad happened, something really terrible!" Hayden cried out first thing in an exaggerated tone.

Natalie was shocked.

"Hayden, calm down. Let's talk about it slowly." Although she told him this, Natalie's breathing unconsciously quickened.

"Natalie, do you still remember b*tch I mentioned? It turns out that she has a big secret!" Natalie was at a loss for words.

She had truly thought that something horrible had happened...

A big secret? Hayden must have been watching too much TV.

She gave a small snort and said, "What's wrong?" "Natalie, she wants to be my stepmother!" What followed was silence.

Natalie's brain was abuzz, and she couldn't think.

"Natalie, Natalie..." Hayden repeatedly called from the other end.

He did not hear Natalie answering him.

Natalie cback to her senses.

She tightened her grip on her phone and said, "Hayden, go on." "Natalie, my great-grandpa brought her here just to meet my father. She wants to be my stepmother! Natalie, your status is in danger, you have to do something about it," Hayden said hurriedly.

Natalie's mind was a whirling mess.

Hayden went on, but Natalie didn't hear what he said at all.

After hanging up the phone, she was absentminded for a long time.

Tobias was looking for a new partner? Had he already moved on after such a short time? For sreason, Natalie felt a sour pang in her chest.

It gnawed at her insides, making her feel like all strength had left her body.

Realizing that she was in a bad state, Natalie pinched her thigh hard.

What was she thinking about? Hadn't she always dreamt of living a life without Tobias? Now that he had moved on, shouldn't she give her blessings? He'd finally stopped pestering her and was starting his new life. She had to bless him, she had to.

Yes, she had to.

Natalie tried her best to push out all her messy thoughts and forced a smile.

She forced the corners of her mouth upwards.

Well, she couldn't delay things anymore. She had an interview to get to.

Natalie did not succeed in applying for the job.

Originally, she had great confidence in this position.

After all, she had studied in United States for four years. French cnaturally to her.

What's more, her educational background was excellent.

However, during the interview, Natalie had trouble concentrating despite her being well prepared.

Her mind was like a trainwreck.

After the interviewer asked a question, she would be in a trance and only snap to reality moments later, stammering a reply. Naturally, she'd failed the interview.

Dazed, Natalie walked out of the office dejectedly. Soon enough, Yvonne's call came.

Before Natalie could speak, Yvonne immediately asked how did her interview go.

"I didn't get the job," Natalie said, her tone peevish.

Yvonne's eyes widened, her brows twisting together in bafflement.

"What? Why not? Natalie, this position is a piece of cake for you." Natalie was a little distracted.

"Yvonne, let's meet up for a drink." Natalie switched the topic.

She suddenly had an urge to get completely drunk.

For no reason.

Or perhaps there was a reason, but she didn't dare to think about it.

She was the one who'd wanted to leave Tobias, so that they could each live their own lives.

Now, her wish had finally ctrue.

But why was she in such a forlorn state? Why did she feel a nasty.m inexplicable feeling bubbling in her chest? Wasn't this slapping herself in her face? Unfortunately, Yvonne couldn't accompany Natalie for a drink. She was out of town for a shoot.

"Natalie, I'll get Sebastian go with you," Yvonne said.

Disappointment flashed in Natalie's eyes. "No, it's fine." She hung up the phone.

Perturbed by the morning events, Natalie cback to the apartment and went to sleep.

While she was half-asleep, someone knocked at the door.

Natalie ran to open the door, seeing Sebastian outside.

Sebastian's fair cheeks flushed slightly as he said, "Natalie, Yvonne toldthat you're not in a good mood and wantedto..." She stifled a yawn. "No, it's fine. You should go and get your things done." In response, Sebastian gave her a concerned look. "Natalie, you're still sleeping at this hour? Let's go and get sdinner." Natalie glanced at the clock. It was indeed tfor dinner.

She'd unknowingly slept for so long.

Natalie rubbed her eyes. "I'll just cook myself something." Sebastian's attitude was firm. "I'll stay with you." Sebastian did not feel at ease leaving Natalie alone in her current state.

After Natalie went to wash up and get ready, she finally felt freshened.

Now snapped awake, her heart was suddenly filled with endless sadness.

Natalie felt her chest was so stuffy that it was difficult to breathe. M Sebastian was still sitting on the sofa in the living room, waiting for her.

O Natalie walked up to Sebastian and suggested, "Sebastian, do you want to go for a drink?" Sanh thì Find.ut website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. She didn't feel like eating anything. She just wanted to get drunk and intoxicated.

There was a flash of hesitation on Sebastian's face.

"It's fine if you don't want to." Sebastian stood up and said, "Then I'll go with you." The two of them arrived at a food stall by the roadside.

Sebastian had used all energy he had to stop Natalie when she wanted to order their strongest brandy.

In the end, Natalie could only have beer.

It was strange. Natalie normally wouldn't get drunk on just beer alone, but on this night, she was already tipsy after a few bottles.

In the end, Natalie let out a drunken giggle.
