My Heart only Beats for You

Natalie gently caressed her warm cheeks. "Yes, it doesn't hurt anymore." "Good." The corner of Tobias's mouth lifted into a smirk.

Natalie stared at the infusion bottle and frowned. "How long will this take, Mr. Whitlock?" "It won't be too long. But you'll be kept in the ward for observation." Natalie snapped her head towards him.

She has thought that she could go back after the shot.

"Does that mean I won't be able to leave until tomorrow?" "It's for the best." She lowered her gaze and murmured, "That means I can't go to work." "That's right." After hesitating for a moment, she shook her head and muttered, "I feel a little bad." Her condition was not that serious anyway. She could still go to work if she wanted to.

"It's fine because I won't be going to work either." Her eyes widened in disbelief.

Tobias was willing to stay back with her instead of going to work! She panicked in an instant. "But you have so much to do, Mr. Whitlock! How could you abandon your work just to look after me? Your work is important." "They're not as important as you are," he replied calmly.

Her heart skipped a beat.

He chuckled and patted her face gently in assurance. "Stop overthinking, Natalie. Get srest, and you'll feel better soon." "What about you, Mr. Whitlock?" "I'll sit here and stay with you." Natalie pointed to the hospital cot across her, "You could sleep there, Mr. Whitlock." He nodded and said, "Alright, you go to sleep first." She hesitated for a moment and closed her eyes.

She didn't want Tobias to neglect the company for her sake.

She thought that if she recovered quickly, then she would not have to stay in the hospital any longer. This way, he would not need to stay in the hospital to take care of her. The night went by quickly.

The next day, Natalie woke up at dawn.

Half conscious, she struggled to open her eyes. At the stime, she sensed that someone was staring at her. When she was finally able to see clearly, Natalie realized that she was right. Search The Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Tobias was staring at her as he sat at the edge of the bed.

His gaze was calm and gentle, and his deep-set eyes glinted as he looked at her.

Warmth surged up within her.

She peered behind him to look at the hospital cot across her, and she was baffled to notice that the sheets on the cot were untouched, tidily stacked together.

Did Tobias stay up all night to look after her? Or more accurately, to stare at her? She was flustered.

"Mr. Whitlock, you weren't up all night last night, were you?" "I was." "You sat on my bed the entire night?" "Yes." "Please don't tellyou were staring atlike that the whole night." "I was." Natalie could almost pass out. "Why?" "You looked pretty." She was speechless.

Natalie reached to feel her face and thought to herself a little skeptically, "Am I really that goodlooking? He was willing to give up sleep to stare atfor the entire night." "But Mr. Whitlock, I don't think I am a stunner." "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder," Tobias purred. "Besides, we are lovers." The word "lovers" made Natalie's heart jump.

Were they lovers now? The hospital staff cin to send her breakfast later that morning. There was milk, fruits, and bread.

But Natalie didn't have the appetite to eat.

She craved doughnuts instead. Not just any doughnut, but the ones sold by the roadside.

Tobias poured her a glass of milk and brought it to her lips. "Take a sip, Natalie." She shook her head and said, "Mr. Whitlock, I am craving doughnuts. The ones by the roadside. I won't eat anything else other than that." He put down the glass of milk and sprang up. "Alright, I'll buy them for you." "Wait!" Natalie did not expect this reply of his and wanted to stop him, but he was already gone.

She had meant this as a joke, and she didn't really mean for Tobias to actually buy the doughnuts for her.

Tobias returned half an hour later.

In his hands was a box full of doughnuts.

She glanced at the paper box and immediately recognized that the doughnuts were the exact ones she was craving.

She imagined the scene of Tobias buying them.

As she conjured the odd image of YS Group's president buying breakfast from a doughnut stall by the roadside, she stifled a giggle.

Although Tobias bought a lot of doughnuts, he did not let Natalie eat too much of them.

"Your stomach had just recovered, and these are not exactly healthy. Please control yourself." She nodded obediently.

Since he was kind enough to buy these doughnuts for her, she could not bring herself to go against his wishes. After breakfast, Tobias called Benjamin to postpone their meeting as he could not go to the company.

A strange feeling rose in the pit of her stomach as she listened to the list of matters Tobias was handing over to Benjamin through the phone.

She was hospitalized only because of a stomach ache. Yet, he had stayed beside her all night, went to buy breakfast for her, and even neglected his work. Did he really like her that much? After ending his call, Tobias turned around and realized that Natalie was staring at him, her body motionless.

Her eyes were as bright as stars in the night sky.

"What's wrong?" He raised an eyebrow, and his mouth curved slightly in amusement. Natalie's eyes were glued to him. "Do you really likethat much, Mr. Whitlock?" She winced at her shamelessness for asking that question.

Tobias's smile widened. "Only a fool would ask such a question." His reply left her confused.

"What do you mean?" "Aren't you a fool for asking such an obvious question?" He replied and gave her a subtle wink.

Her pulse quickened, and she bit her lip hard.

So, he really liked her a lot then.

"But why?"

She couldn't figure out why he was so smitten with her. Considering all aspects, she couldn't be more ordinary. Plus, she had only known him for a short time. She was starting to believe that she was living in a fairy tale. Tobias was the prince, and she was the commoner with whom he fell in love with.

How else could anyone explain his sudden fondness for her? "I adore you, and there's no doubt about it. Why do you have so many questions?" "I just want to know why." A laugh broke from his chest, and he answered, "You're cute, Natalie. That's why I like you." "But there are many other cute women on earth." "You're the only one I see." She felt heat creeping up her cheeks, flushing.

Tobias was a great sweet-talker.

Just then, the ward's door swung open with a squeak, and Cecilia walked in.

She rushed towards Natalie and asked, "Are you okay, Natalie?" Natalie was surprised by the amount of concern in Cecilia's eyes.

She shook her head. "I'm fine."

Cecilia nodded, and she immediately turned to Tobias and chided, m "Seriously? Tobias, why didn't you tellthat she was hospitalized last night? I only found out this morning." "Natalie is fine, Mother. Don't worry." "He's right, Auntie. I'm fine," Natalie quickly added.

Cecilia pulled out the thermos under her arm, "I cooked porridge for you, Natalie, Your stomach is not feeling well? Noyn so you need to eat sporridge." Although Natalie had just eaten doughnuts for breakfast, she was not entirely full because Tobias had stopped her from eating to her heart's content.

She would definitely not refuse Cecilia's porridge.

However, Cecilia insisted on feeding her.
