My Heart only Beats for You

How could she hog the entire blanket the whole night? She hurriedly covered Hayden with the duvets.

When her hands brushed past his hands and legs, Natalie found that they were cold.

Afterwards, Natalie did not sleep a wink.

She hugged Hayden and tried to warm him up with her body heat.

That morning, Hayden woke up particularly late.

After he got up, something about the look in his eyes was not quite right.

When they had breakfast, Hayden kept complaining about not feeling well. Natalie quickly took his body temperature and found it to be 39 degrees.

The high temperature alarmed her enough to jump out of her chair.

After sending Hayden to the hospital in a hurry, she rang up Tobias. Natalie was on the verge of sobbing when she spoke on the phone.

Tobias stopped her curtly, "Natalie, don't worry. I'll be there right away." Tobias finally arrived in the afternoon.

Hayden's condition was fine. It was just a cold-induced fever.

Though it was not serious, it was still a fever.

Natalie almost drowned in her own guilt.

After all, Hayden only got a fever because of her.

She stood in front of Tobias and with her head drooping low, "Mr. Whitlock, it's all my fault. I pulled off the blanket in my sleep and caused Hayden to catch a cold, it's all my fault." Natalie waited for the raging storm to commence.

She believed that Hayden was of great importance to Tobias, and she had caused him to catch a fever. Tobias must certainly be furious at her.

But to her surprise, he was not mad at all.

He said in a helpless tone, "Natalie, you're still snatching blankets at this age? You're so cute." Natalie was stunned.

There seemed to be no trace of anger in Tobias's voice.

She carefully looked up at him and asked, "Mr. Whitlock, you're not angry?" She thought that Tobias would blher, but the big boss did not seem to have any intentions of the sort.

"I'm not." Natalie's eyelashes fluttered rapidly, "But Mr. Whitlock, Hayden had a fever because of me. If I didn't hog the blankets, he would be fine. After all, he's your son." "And you?" Tobias asked in response.

Natalie's breathing beclabored.

"I- I'm just a nanny." She was just a nanny that Tobias had hired to take care of Hayden.

As Hayden's nanny, she had snatched away the blanket, causing him to fall sick. Was it not a big mistake? Should she not be punished? "Silly, you really bought into the whole nanny thing." Tobias's gaze was slightly baffled.

Natalie was stunned.

What on earth did the big boss mean by that? "Nothing serious happened to Hayden, you don't need to be so worried." Tobias did not blNatalie, but comforted her instead.

That made Natalie feel even more apologetic.

If Tobias had scolded her, it would have been fine.

However, not only was she not being held accountable, she was being so gently consoled. Her remorse swelled bigger, ready to swallow her whole. After a moment, she suddenly asked, "Mr. Whitlock, would you like to inform Hayden's mother about Hayden then?" Tobias's breathing hitched, "Hayden's mother?" Natalie nodded, "She cby yesterday, but she already left." A strange light flashed in Tobias's eyes.

He knew who she was talking about.

It must be Lucy. She was close to Hayden, and must have taken stto visit him.

"It's fine. If we let her know, it'll only make her anxious," Tobias said distantly.

He did not explain any further.

He thought that since Natalie had met Lucy the day before, she should know that Lucy was just Hayden's godmother.

Natalie just muttered a simple "oh" in reply.

She felt a sudden twinge of bitterness in her heart.

Natalie reckoned that Tobias must really love Lucy. Even though her son was sick, he did not want to tell her for fear of worrying her.

Ever since Tobias arrived at the hospital in the afternoon, he never left.

In the evening, Tobias personally fed Hayden dinner.

Watching Tobias feed his son, Natalie felt her eyes tingle.

She had always thought that Tobias was the type who called all the shots in the business world. She did not expect him to not only be a capable leader but a good father as well.

He looked so sweet and warm holding Hayden, a picture of patience and care.

Even the nurse ran over and whispered to Natalie, "Miss, you're so blessed. I've been a nurse for a long while now, and usually, when children fall ill, the mothers would be the ones fawning over them. This is my first tseeing the father doing the feeding and coddling." Natalie felt a little embarrassed.

She waved her hand, "I'm not the child's mother. I'm just the nanny." The nurse was speechless.

She awkwardly changed the subject, "Where's the child's mother?" Natalie's eyes flickered as she spoke, "I'm not really sure." Noticing Natalie's reluctance to speak, the nurse stopped asking.

Natalie felt ripples in her heart.

Lucy had the world's ideal husband. Rich, powerful, and handsome. Why did she leave? Hayden had said that his mother was a lesbian, that was why she left Tobias.

However, when Natalie saw Lucy's appearance, she did not look like a lesbian.

Soon, it was night time.

Because he fell ill, Hayden was not as noisy as usual. After dinner, he went straight to sleep.

That night, Hayden had to stay in the hospital for further obser tion, which raised the issue of who should keep watch.

Tobias wanted to stay behind.

Natalie also wanted to accompany Hayden.

At the end of the day, Natalie was the reason Hayden had a high fever For her to her to go back and sleep peacefully would be impossible.

However, both of them wanted to stay and keep watch. Even in the most luxurious VIP room, there Wère only two beds. Smaxth the (ind) vel.n't website on Gøøgl to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. With Hayden asleep in one, there was only another bed left.

Of course, they could sleep in another ward, but both Tobias and Natalie om wanted to stay by Hayden's side to make sure he was taken care of at all times. The only question was, who would sleep on the only bed left? Tobias was the first to speak, "Natalie, you sleep on the bed. I'll just settle somewhere else." How could Natalie let the big boss sleep wherever? She hurriedly waved her hand, "No, no. I'll find somewhere to sit, you sleep on the bed, Mr. Whitlock." Tobias looked at Natalie and insisted, "No, you sleep on the bed." "No, Mr. Whitlock, you take the bed." Neither refused to budge.

Finally, Tobias said, "Let's sleep on the bed together then." Natalie was dumbfounded.

Her face flushed, "Th- That won't work." Tobias's eyes darkened, saying, "Natalie, Hayden's here. Don't worry, I know how to be a gentleman." Natalie was quiet.

Then, he added, "I'll keep my desire in check." Baffled, Natalie decided it best to remain silent.

In the end, Natalie compromised because there was no other way.

She and Tobias both wanted to stay in that ward to take care of Hayden.

And she could not allow her boss to not sleep on the bed while he insisted on letting her sleep on the bed.

One of them could squeeze onto Hayden's bed. After all, the beds in the VIP ward were huge.

But Hayden was sick, and it would not be good to crowd with a patient.

Other than compromising, there was really no other way.

With Natalie's whole back facing Tobias, her heart thumped rapidly in her chest.

It was not her first tsharing a bed with Tobias, but Hayden was wedged between them the last time. This tthough...
