My Heart only Beats for You

"Is Bali beautiful? Is it fun?" asked Selina.

"It sure is beautiful and fun. Selina, you have to cif you have the time." A wave of emotions flashed through Selina's eyes, and she sighed. "I do want to go, and I wanted Dylan to bring me. Can you guess what he said?" "What?" "He said he was so poor that he couldn't even bringto Hesovo Island, not to mention Bali." Natalie was speechless.

Selina said in self-mockery, "I'm a rich woman, but he's so prideful to the point that he refuses to use a woman's money. He said that he will work hard to letlive the life of a noble lady that I deserve. Natalie, do you think that's realistic?" "I don't think it's unrealistic. A lot of things can change with time. They say you should never bully a poor man for you'll never know when luck may favor him. Selina, don't you think so too?" replied Natalie. After listening to Natalie's words, Selina becmore hopeful.

She nodded strongly. "You're right. Maybe these naive thoughts of mine might ctrue. As human beings, we must always have goals." At that point, she stopped and said, "I seem to have taken up too much of your time. Tobias might get upset. Let's end our conversation here Natalie. Do enjoy your honeymoon with my brother." "It's fine, he won't be upset. We can continue talking," Natalie said as she laughed.

In spite of Natalie's reassurance, Selina decided to hang up anyway. "No, no. I mustn't impose. I don't want to be boring. Let's talk next time." She hung up after that.

Hearing the beeping tone through the phone, ripples flashed past Natalie's eyes.

Shortly after, she went to the hotel lobby.

"Done with your call?" Tobias asked as he stared at Natalie with a smile.

He was sitting on the sofa, emanating a noble aura.

Natalie sat down next to Tobias, who took advantage of the situation and circled his arms around her waist.

"Just now, Selina mentioned Dylan again," Natalie said.

The expression on Tobias' face suddenly turned rigid.

Natalie noticed it.

She looked directly at Tobias. "I tried to dissuade Selina, but she said something that madepause. She asked if I would have still liked you if you were in the ssituation as Dylan." Tobias' gaze suddenly deepened.

Natalie said with certainty, "I think I would. I would still have fallen for you. So, let's all wish for Selina's happiness. Nothing on this earth can stop love. What we can do is give them our blessing. Don't you think So?" The look in Tobias' grew more profound.

A moment later, she was suddenly fully wrapped up in Tobias' embrace. "Natalie, you are right. Nothing in this world can stop love. Therefore, all we can do is hope for the best for her." Natalie instantly felt like she was shrouded in a comforting warmth, and it made her feel at ease.

She was much happier and luckier compared to Selina.

She wished that sof her luck would rub off onto Selina so that she too could be increasingly blessed and happy.

Meanwhile, Selina received a task.

Cecilia had asked her to go drop by Matthew's house.

Every year, the Whitlock family would prepare a gift for each of their friends or relatives. Matthew could also be considered as someone close to the Whitlock family, so he was no exception.

Most of the gifts could be delivered by servants, but Matthew was different. Firstly, despite his youthful age, his status was important enough to warrant special treatment. Secondly, he had a close relationship with Tobias.

Tobias was usually the one to send the gift. However, Tobias was currently unavailable.

Members of the upper class had always been particular when it cto matters regarding seniority. As an elder, Cecilia couldn't personally send it to Matthew. Since Tobias wasn't around, Selina was the only one who could do it.

When Selina heard that she had to deliver the gift to Matthew, the corner of her mouth twitched.

Back then she hadn't had much of an impression of Matthew. She simply thought of him as a goodlooking man. Even though he was of noble descent, he did not carry a superior, unreachable, and prideful air. However, after having interacted with him several times...

Selina realized that this man was extremely flirty. Search The FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

She didn't want to be the one to deliver Matthew his gift, for she did not like men who were incredibly flirty like him.

In her opinion, he was the bynof a playboy.

Selina hesitated as she said to Cecilia, "Mom, why don't you let someone else send it to him?" Cecilia shook her head with a smile. "Since Tobias and Natalie aren't here, who else could deliver it? I'm older than him, and it's not appropriate forto send it to him personally. However, Matthew has an honorable status, so we can't just let a servant send it." "Why not?" The corner of Selina's mouth quirked up.

She failed to see how Matthew was of noble status.

Selina said, "Just send a servant. Send the oldest and ugliest servant we have!" If a young girl like her went there, Selina was sure that Matthew would flirt with her to no end. She reckoned Matthew wouldn't be able to do it if the person was old and ugly.

A look of confusion passed through Cecilia's eyes. "Why do we have to send an old and ugly one?" "Don't you think that he's incredibly flirty? What if he makes a young lady fall head over heels?" Selina said out loud.

Cecilia was at a loss for words.

She looked at Selina strangely and wondered what nonsense she had just uttered.

Cecilia had been in contact with Matthew for quite stime. His character was definitely something that even Cecilia would sing praise for.

Cecilia had never considered him to be the flirty type.

Matthew was one of those rare men who had every right to flirt with and seduce women, but abstained from it.

In fact, she could see that Matthew was a truly dedicated man.

Cecilia flicked Selina's forehead. "It's bad enough that you're refusing to do m it, now here you are slandering Matthewtoo. Hurry along and deliver it to him. Don't you say any more nonsense." Selina stuck out her tongue. What slander? Everything she had said was the truth.

Matthew had hidden himself too well.

Only Selina's sharp eyes saw through his disguise, whilst everyone else had been mesmerized and charmed by him. Whatever, she would just go and deliver it. It wasn't like she had anything to lose.

Besides, apart from the fact that Matthew liked to flirt with young ladies, it seemed that there was nothing else particularly bad about him.

Selina went to get the gift.

The gift was a work of calligraphy written by Peter himself.

Selina was speechless.

Who would give their own calligraphy to someone else as a gift? This was plain narcissism.

She really couldn't believe that Peter was such a narcissist at his age.

Cecelia chuckled in reply and said, "The people who receive gifts from the Whitlock family are all rich. They e don't lack anything. Rather, sincerity is what's hardest to cby. So, this is your grandfather's way of showing his sincerity to them." Peter's calligraphy was placed in an exceedingly ornate box, which was framed with golden rims.

Selina complained that it was too troublesto hold and instead stuffed it into her bag.

She had planned to ask the driver to send her to Matthew's house. However, that day, all the cars of the Whitlock family had been sent for maintenance.

"Why don't you wait for the driver to get the car back before you go?" Cecilia suggested.

Selina immediately opposed the suggestion.

It would most probably be dark by the tthe driver drove the car back.

The dark would be a convenient setting for his flirting.
