My Heart only Beats for You

Selina was dumbfounded.

With Natalie being so near to her delivery date, she normally would not choose to leave the villa, yet she went out that noon. "Mom, do you think something will happen to her?" Selina asked.

Cecilia shook her head. "Natalie said she would cback soon, and I've sent someone to follow her. She'll be fine." "Alright," Selina replied.

After a while, Cecilia headed upstairs to rest, and Selina was waiting in the living room.

It didn't take long for Natalie to cback.

Selina immediately asked where she had gone.

Natalie had no intention to hide anything from her as she stated, "I invited Matthew out for lunch." Selina's breath caught in her throat.

"Why... Why did you invite him out for lunch?" Selina's breathing was a little uneven.

Natalie then explained, "Didn't Matthew have a dating rumor with an actress back then? It turned out that the actress' agency deliberately made it up just to boost her career. She felt sorry towards Matthew, and she's friends with Yvonne too. She wanted to meet up with Matthew to apologize to him in person." Selina froze as if she had been struck by lightning.

Natalie continued, "Matthew didn't want to meet her at first. I think he must have forgotten about it already, and he didn't mind at all. But since it was a request on my part, he didn't refuse. That's why we had lunch together just now." Selina's eyelashes trembled as she slowly cto a realization.

After a while, she forced out, "What happened after that?" "We had lunch, and I cback right after. That's all. Matthew didn't seem to be in a good mood when we left, though, I don't know what's wrong with him..." Natalie paused before continuing, "Or perhaps I'm overthinking. Anyway, it's all sorted out." Selina was at a loss for words.

Before Natalie could finish what she wanted to say, Selina had already run away.

Selina ran back to her bedroom.

She took out her phone and dialed Matthew's number.

Once again, she had misunderstood everything.

Matthew only had lunch with Jenna because Natalie had arranged it. There was nothing between them. Selina had been imagining things.

Selina felt guilty.

She had to explain to Matthew.

However, his phone was turned off.

It occurred to Selina that she had broken his phone last night.

She ran downstairs in a flurry.

"Selina, what's wrong with you? Why are you in such a hurry?" Natalie questioned in confusion.

She had just seen Selina running upstairs like a rabbit on its escape, and now she was running back down.

Selina sounded urgent as she said, "Natalie, I have to go out and take care of something." She then sprinted out.

She got the driver to send her to the largest phone store in town and picked the most expensive mobile phone.

It was black in color and glossy on the surface.

She then asked the driver to send her to the Perry Group.

The traffic was smooth on her way there. SEAR*ch the Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

She arrived at the president's office and was about to push the door open when someone called out to her, saying, "Miss Whitlock?" Selina turned around and saw a man in a suit and leather shoes.

She remembered this person. He seemed to be Matthew's assistant, Stryker.

"I'm looking for Matthew," Selina said directly.

Stryker looked troubled.

Matthew was in a meeting.

If it was someone else, he would've asked them to wait until the meeting was over.

Despite that, it was Selina.

Stryker could still recall that Selina had once interrupted Matthew's meeting by busting into the conference room.

He assumed that Selina wouldn't be willing to wait until the meeting was over this teither.

Instead of letting her barge in, he chose to inform Matthew himself.

"Miss Whitlock, please wait for a moment. I'll go and inform Mr. Perry," he said.

"Wait." Selina stopped him. "Is he in a meeting?" "Yes, Miss Whitlock." "Then let's wait until the meeting is over. I'll wait for him in his office," Selina responded. Stryker was dumbfounded.

Selina seemed like a different person this time.

"Thank you, Miss Whitlock." Stryker let out a sigh of relief in secret.

Selina walked into Matthew's office. She sat on the soft sofa and looked around.

This was the first tshe had gotten to observe Matthew's office.

The office was large, and the design was tasteful as well. The color palette was only black and white, but the overall office looked elegant.

Emotions were welling in Selina's gaze. She was wondering what she should tell Matthew later.

Just as she was thinking about this, she could hear footsteps from outside.

The footsteps sounded steady, powerful and elegant. Selina could tell that they were Matthew's.

Selina stood up.

At the stime, a man cin.

Their eyes met.

Matthew was startled upon seeing Selina in front of him.

However, the astonishment in his gaze disappeared quickly the next second.

Matthew didn't even say a word to Selina. He simply turned around and left.

She rushed in front of Matthew and blocked his path.

Neither her height nor her vibe could be on par with Matthew, but she still chose to block his path.

Matthew's eyebrows furrowed. "What are you doing here?"

There was a hint of coldness in his voice, which was completely different from his usual gentle voice that made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze. Selina's heart ached a little.

However, she was the one who caused this.

Selina showed the new phone in her hand and said, "This is for you." Matthew pursed his lips and didn't say anything. He didn't even spare her a glance.

Selina continued, "I broke your phone, so this is a gift." "There's no need," Matthew spat out.

"I broke your phone, I have to make it up to you," Selina insisted.

Matthew's voice was icy as he said, "I told you there's no need, so don't bother. Selina/ I still have work to attend to, please just leave." Selina was startled.

Matthew was acting strange, too strange for her to believe that this was reality.

Her eyes were covered with a layer of moisture.

Choked up, she said, "Matthew, how

can you be like this? I specially went out to buy you this phone and call the way here, waiting for you to end Oving so that I can give your I you the phone in person. Even so, you're treatinglike this. You don't want the phone, and you don't wanthere either. Why are you being like this?" Matthew's heart ached, as if something had sliced through it.

Selina's eyes were covered by mist, and she was sobbing. Seeing this scene was like a flurry of knives stabbing into his heart.

The pain spread slowly.

"Selina," Matthew called out in a hoarse Soundice. His tone no longer frosty, but instead pained as he said, "Stop making meo misunderstand. Just leave He didn't want to have any more misunderstandings, especially not about Selina.
