My Heart only Beats for You

Lisa would never dare to say such things in front of Tobias.

But Natalie's personality was gentle and innocent. Therefore, she did not have to hold herself back when she was talking to Natalie.

The three words "get it on" stood out in Natalie's mind like neon lights.

Her face immediately flushed red, like a tomato.

What kind of nonsense was Lisa saying? Natalie wanted to explain, but Lisa shot her an understanding look.

"You've got the wrong idea, Lisa. It's not what you think," Natalie whispered through clenched teeth.

Lisa wanted nothing more than to get the real scoop on Natalie, but Tobias was still in the office.

She pushed that thought of gossip away and waved Natalie goodbye before leaving.

Only Tobias and Natalie were left in the office.

"Chere." Tobias's eyes flicked towards Natalie.

She walked over reluctantly, as slow as she could manage without making it seem too weird.

"Pick out the food that I don't like and eat them." She opened the lunch box slowly, stalling as much as she could. "But I don't know which food you dislike, Mr. Whitlock." Of course, she was faking it on purpose.

How could she not know the food that Tobias disliked when she had been in charge of his meals for so long? Since he had forcefully placed her under house arrest, she thought she could have a little fun annoying him on purpose.

Tobias glanced casually at her. "Whatever food you like are the ones I dislike. Remember this." Her tiny nose scrunched up in frustration.

Alright, she had failed to annoy him.

Pouting her lips, she slowly picked the food she liked to eat into her lunch box.

Tobias waited for her to dig in before he started eating.

She sneaked a glance at him as they ate, and as usual-he ate with grace and elegance.

Her gaze unintentionally traveled down his arms and landed on his strong hands gripping the utensils firmly. Lisa's words suddenly rang in her mind.

"Get it on with you in the office." Her cheeks felt hot again. She was burning up.

Lisa's description seemed incongruent with the demeanor of the gentle and noble man sitting across her.

"What are you thinking about?" Tobias looked at her.

"Ah! It's nothing," she blurted, guilt evident all over her face.

"Really? Nothing?" "Yeah." She quickly stuffed a spoonful of food into her mouth as a cover-up, and her cheeks bulged.

After dinner, Tobias still had no intentions of letting her go.

"Mr. Whitlock, doesn't Hayden need someone to take care of him at such a late hour? Does he not need someone to sleep with him?" Breaking the silence, Natalie tried to talk him into letting her go by using Hayden as an excuse.

Tobias's answer was casual and indifferent. "I've already informed the servants. They will take care of him." Natalie narrowed her eyes at him.

It looked like her last plan had also failed.

Running out of ideas, she rubbed her eyes and murmured, "But Mr. Whitlock, I want to sleep." Tobias tilted his chin towards the sofa. "This sofa is big enough for you. If you don't like sleeping on the sofa, I'll get someone to buy a bed and bring it in. I don't mind sleeping together with you." His words rendered her speechless.

She was on the verge of a breakdown.

Helpless, she stared at him and pleaded, "What is it that you want from me, Mr. Whitlock?" He looked at her meaningfully and replied, "I want you to givean answer. Do you likeor not?" His attractive eyes bore into hers.

Natalie's heart thumped frantically.

She couldn't figure out the answer to that question.

Perhaps she had already known the answer, but she just wanted to avoid the topic.

She refused to answer the question because she was avoiding him.

"Mr. Whitlock, could you not askthis question?" She asked, biting down her lip so hard it almost drew blood. Tobias's eyes glinted.

He raised his eyebrows in amusement.

Since she was so afraid of answering the question, he had to get it done another way.

"Natalie, how about we try to figure out this thing between us?" Natalie's heart almost leaped out of her chest.

Was he confessing his feelings to her? She felt overwhelmed.

"But Mr. Whitlock, is this appropriate?" She asked weakly.

"Of course. We're both single," he reassured.

"But Mr. Whitlock, you have a son." Natalie tried to avoid his advances.

"I thought you liked Hayden?" She bit down on her lip even harder. "I'm at a disadvantage then. After all, you have a son." Natalie's words were totally against her conscience.

She could never be worthy of the affections from a man like Tobias, regardless of whether he had one, or a dozen children.

She just wanted to use Hayden as an excuse to reject him.

"No, you won't. I have great stamina, and I'm certain that I can make it up to you sother way." He raised his brows suggestively. "Natalie, you will be happy with me. Both your body and your soul will be on cloud nine." Natalie's face turned red in an instant.

Why would he steer their conversation in that direction again? What did his great stamina have to do with her? "If you don't believe me, Natalie, we can test it out tonight. We can try it here if you like," Tobias winked at her flirtatiously.

Lisa's words once again flashed across Natalie's mind.

She immediately conjured the image of the two of them "getting it on" in the office.

"No!" Her hands flew to cover her burning cheeks as she denied his offer.

The corner of his mouth quirked into a mischievous grin. "Are you saying no to testing it out, or no to dating me?" "I refuse to answer your question." "You can't, you must choose one." Natalie's thick long lashes fluttered.

She suddenly realized that she had fallen into his trap.

No matter which she chose, it would be a mistake.

If she refused to date him, then she would have to sleep with him sah the Findet Website on Gøøgl to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. But if she were to refuse to sleep with him, then she would have to date him.

She was torn between these two choices.

Of course, dating him sounded like the more acceptable option to her.

"I'll date you, Mr. Whitlock." She clenched her teeth.

A wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

His eyes twinkled in excitement, and they looked brighter than the stars in the night sky. "Very well." Natalie's fingers trembled. She couldn't believe that she had agreed to date him.

She didn't even know if she had made the right choice Tobias bent over to k to kiss her on her forehead.

"Let's go hnow." "Ah! Sure." Natalie's footsteps felt light as she walked towards the underground parking lot with him.

It was already way past office hours. There were only less than a handful of employees left in the huge building.

Tobias's hands held Natalie's firmly.

She was not used to this feeling.

She tried to pull her hand back, but his grip on her was firm.

The burning heat from his body traveled from her palm across her whole body.

Their surroundings were quiet because most staff had already gone off work in the quiet of the night, her heart skipped. Every step she took felt as if she was stepping on the clouds.

When she finally got into the car, she realized that something was wrong.

Didn't she cto see Tobias to tell him about her decision to move back to her apartment? After all that, she didn't even get to return to her own apartment. To make matters worse, she even agreed to date him.

Her head spun in confusion.

What... what had she done? "Mr. Whitlock, can... can I take back what I said?" She muttered weakly.

"No." She pouted and said, "What if I insist?" Tobias turned to look at her. "Natalie, if you insist, you know very well what I will do then." X
