My Heart only Beats for You

Natalie forced a smile, "Okay then. I will send you home." She ordered a taxi for the two of them and sent Hayden back to the Whitlock family's villa.

When they arrived at the villa, a black Bentley pulled up at the front gate.

Natalie held Hayden's hand gently and guided him out of the taxi. Meanwhile, Tobias got out of his car.

At that moment, their eyes met.

The pale moonlight barely illuminated their faces.

Hayden shook off Natalie's hand and ran towards Tobias, leaping as he laughed, "Daddy! You're back." Tobias nodded at him.

He scooped Hayden into his arms and muttered, "You go in with Auntie. I need to talk to Natalie." Hayden blinked at Tobias thoughtfully.

Then, he hopped down from Tobias's arms and tottered into the villa with the maid.

Natalie was about to leave after seeing Hayden walk into the house.

"Natalie," Tobias called her name.

Her footsteps faltered, but she did not stop walking.

She swung open the car door and said, "Sir, please sendback to my apartment." Tobias immediately walked to the window of the driver's seat and declared, "Don't you dare." His deep voice echoed in the silence of the night.

The driver was frightened by Tobias's aura. Needless to say, he daren't disobey.

He turned to smile bitterly at Natalie and gave a random excuse, "I'm sorry, Miss. I'm off duty now. I have something else to do." Natalie's eyelashes fluttered.

With no choice, she got out of the car.

"What do you want, Tobias?" She asked in a monotonous tone, devoid of all emotion.

"I'll send you home," Tobias offered gently, his voice smooth as silk.

Natalie said nothing and walked straight towards his car.

She knew that if she didn't agree to let him send her home, he wasn't planning to let her go back.

Since he had already offered to send her hand it was not a big deal for her anyway, she could just treat it as a free ride.

She sat in the back seat and looked out of the window during the drive, avoiding his gaze.

Noticing Natalie's indifferent attitude, Tobias couldn't bring himself to talk to her.

The two of them remained silent the entire way back.

Finally, after enduring what seemed like an eternity of awkwardness, they arrived at Natalie's apartment.

Tobias stopped the car in front of the apartment.

When Natalie reached out to open the door, she realized that it was locked.

She turned to look at Tobias.

He shifted his body to face her.

"Unlock the door," Natalie ordered.

Natalie shot Tobias a cold look, her gaze threatening to shoot daggers into his heart. It hurt him so much that he felt hard to breathe.

He drew in a stuttered breath and admitted, "Natalie, my feelings for you have never changed. Please don't avoid me." "That has nothing to do with me." Tobias narrowed his dark eyes at her and said, "I understand that you still can't let go of your worries. I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes." His gaze was as deep as the ocean and as boundless as the night sky. Somehow, Natalie found herself drowning in them.

At that moment, she was lost in his spell.

However, she managed to snap herself back to reality.

"Letout," She repeated again with more force.

Hurt flashed across Tobias's gorgeous features.

"Alright," He muttered.

There was an immeasurable sadness in his voice when he finally let her leave.

Soon, Tobias returned to the villa.

It was only a short journey, but it felt like an eternity.

His face seemed downcast and troubled. Rubbing his temples, he pushed open the main door and shuffled into the house.

When he walked into the living room, he was surprised to see Hayden sitting on the sofa eating a cup of jelly. "Hayden? Why aren't you in bed yet?" Tobias frowned.

It was way past Hayden's usual bedtalready.

"Daddy, I was waiting for you to cback," Hayden shoved a spoonful of peach-flavored jelly into his mouth as he grinned, "I have sgood news for you." Tobias' perfectly arched brows raised in curiosity.

Hayden set the empty cup aside gently before throwing himself into Tobias's arms. He laughed, "Tomorrow is your birthday, Daddy." Tobias froze.

His birthday? It was only then that he remembered: it was indeed his birthday the next day.

But it didn't matter to him anyway. He didn't care about birthdays. To him, it was just another regular day.

"Daddy, Natalie has promisedthat she will cto celebrate your birthday tomorrow!" Hayden squealed.

Tobias' breath hitched a little.

"Really?" His facial expressions were stiff as he spoke.

His gentle tone was filled with disbelief.

Hayden nodded enthusiastically, "Really. Natalie promised me. She will ctomorrow night at eight o'clock." Tobias' breathing quickened a little.

The next morning, Natalie woke up early.

She had a lot of things to do for the day.

Remington would be discharged from the hospital today, so she was planning to pay him a visit.

She also needed to prepare herself for Tobias's birthday celebration at his house that evening.

An unspeakable feeling rose in her heart when she thought of this.

She told herself that it was only a birthday celebration and that there was no need to think too much about it. Natalie went to the hospital later that morning.

After alighting the bus, she walked along the streets towards the hospital. When she passed by the shops along the way, something caught her eye.

She whipped her head to the right and saw a men's clothing store. A necktie on display had attracted her attention. Pressing a hand against the display window, she leaned in to take a closer look.

It was a necktie with blue stripes across it. The pattern was simple yet it looked classy and elegant.

Natalie was never interested in menswear, and usually never shopped for neckties.

However, for sreason, the necktie had drawn her attention at first sight.

A thought suddenly popped up in her mind.

She thought the necktie would bring out the color in someone's eyes.

The image of Tobias wearing the necktie cinto her mind.

Natalie shook her head in horror. What was she thinking about? How could she think of him now? She had already ended things with Tobias, so why would it matter if the necktie suited him?

Natalie hurriedly walked away from the store, but she still could not get rid of the thought in her head. The necktie matched Tobias so much, as if it was specially made for him. She stopped in her tracks. S~Earch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

It was Tobias' birthday, and she would be going to his place that night.

It would seem improper for her to visit him empty-handed. She should at least prepare a gift for him.

Her breathing quickened slightly.

Before she knew it, Natalie was already walking into the store.

She picked up the tie without realizing it and brought it to the cashier, her movements stiff and mechanical as if she had been possessed.

After she had made the payment, the cashier packed the tie into a delicate gift box and handed it to her. The gift box felt heavy in her hands.

Natalie stared at the gift in disbelief. She could not comprehend what she was doing.

However, she had already bought it, and it was not cheap either. She couldn't just throw it away.

She kept reassuring herself that it was only a casual birthday gift, nothing more than that.

Stlater, Natalie finally arrived at the hospital.

Benjamin was sitting on the bench outside the ward while chewing speanuts.

He never liked to eat snacks, and it was his first teating peanuts so leisurely.

He couldn't help it. He was in an extremely good mood that day.

After all, today was the day Remington could finally be discharged from the hospital.

This time, his duty was officially over. He no longer had to bear the strange looks from the hospital staff anymore.

It was finally tfor him to clear all the misunderstandings.

Stago, Remington's best friend, Yeason, had attempted to 'talk sense' into him.

Yeason was implying to Benjamin that although Remington was a asam handsman he was straight. He also hinted that it would be impossible for Remington to be interested in Benjamin.

am To complicate matters, Yeason even secretly warned him not to do anything inappropriate to Remington While Remington was recovering ON from his injuries. Otherwise, Yeason would never forgive Benjamin.. At that time, Benjamin could only accept whatever was said to him in silence. He couldn't tell anyone the truth.

Thankfully, such terrible days were coming to an end.

"Mr. Simpson," A woman's voice suddenly rang in his ear, interrupting his thoughts.
