My Heart only Beats for You

"Okay, I'll take you." After dropping Natalie off, Tobias left for the company.

When Natalie opened the door, she saw James sitting on the sofa, seemingly in a daze.

"Dad." Natalie called out.

James cto his senses, snapping back to reality.

His gaze fell on Natalie's face. "Natalie, you're back." Natalie changed into her slippers and said, "Dad, have you had breakfast?" James nodded, "I went out for seggs and toast this morning." Natalie sat down next to him. "What did you want to talk toabout last night?" James shifted his gaze. "Natalie, I want to go see the sea tomorrow. Can you cwith me?" Natalie agreed at once. "Okay." James breathed a sigh of relief.

"Dad, why'd you suddenly want to go see the sea?" Natalie asked casually.

James' lips moved, but no sound was uttered.

After a while, he looked into Natalie's eyes. "Natalie, I have something to ask you." It was rare for James to look so serious, so Natalie was a little taken aback.

"Go ahead." "If you had the chance to see Queenie, would you apologize to her?" Natalie's eyelashes trembled.

"Dad, do you know what Queenie did to me? She..." Natalie gritted her teeth. "She almost hadkilled." James' face paled.

However, what Queenie said to him quickly rushed into his mind.

James raised his voice and repeated, "Natalie, just apologize to her. Once you apologize, we'll leave everything in the past, okay?" A strange feeling arose in Natalie's heart.

"Dad, have you met Queenie?" She asked suspiciously.

Otherwise, how could James say such a thing? Panic flashed in James' eyes. "No, I haven't." Natalie suppressed the odd qualms in her heart.

She thought that perhaps she was overthinking.

She knew a little about Tobias' punishment for Brayden and Queenie. It seemed that they had been sent abroad.

If that was the case, it was impossible for James to meet Queenie, wasn't it? Maybe James was only saying this because he missed Queenie too much.

"Natalie, just apologize to Queenie, for my sake," James said again. Natalie frowned slightly.

She thought that she might as well play along, for the sake of James.

As long as James could be at ease, there was no need for her to be stubborn.

"Okay, Dad. If I see Queenie again, I will apologize to her sincerely. I will pretend that nothing has happened and everything will be written off from now on." After she said that, Natalie's words seemed to take all burden from James's shoulders.

The stiff look on his face relaxed as well. "Natalie, it's great that you can think like this. It's terrific." He would bring Natalie onto the cruise ship the next day, and as long as Natalie apologized to Queenie sincerely, she'd forgive Natalie.

In the evening, Tobias cto pick Natalie up.

When she thought about meeting Peter, Natalie felt anxious.

Natalie had purposely dressed for the occasion.

She'd dressed in a plain, white dress and let her hair down. She looked more ladylike than usual.

Natalie hoped that she could win sfavor from Peter in terms of appearance.

While in the car, Natalie blurted nervously, "Do I look okay?" Tobias' gaze fell on her, and then the corners of his mouth curved upward. "You do." Natalie felt a little skittish. "Really?" "Really." His tone was certain. "You look good in anything." Natalie felt a little helpless, complaining, "Don't you think saying that I look good in anything is a little ridiculous."

The grin on Tobias' face deepened. "Natalie, I'm serious." His gaze was ultra-focused, like a spring soaked in the moonlight. There was only Natalie's reflection inside, and no one could doubt that his words were false.

Natalie smiled and did not say anything else.

Soon, the car stopped in front of a restaurant.

Natalie found that Peter really liked restaurants of this sort. The last tshe had met him, it was splace similar as well.

The car door opened. Tobias got out, and so did Natalie.

Tobias held Natalie's hand.

Seeing that they were almost there, Natalie started feeling even more uneasy.

She said in a small voice, "Tobias, what should I do to make your grandfather like me?" "You don't have to do anything. Just be yourself." His voice was gentle and light.

Natalie's eyelashes trembled slightly. "Is that really it?"

"Yes." Tobias stared at Natalie.

"Natalie, you're great just the way you are. I like you like this. Believe He you like Grandpa will like you too." Disappointment flashed in Natalie's eyes. It would be great if Peter liked her, like how Cecilia did. She would not feel as jittery and afraid then.

"But he doesn't like me." Natalie's voice was disheartened.

Tobias' hand tightened around Natalie's, as if he were channeling his strength into her. "Natalie, Grandpa's just a little prejudiced against you. Once he's free of his prejudice, things will work out." After that, he tapped Natalie on the nose. "My Natalie is so adorable. Who wouldn't like her?" His gentle gesture instantly put Natalie at ease.

She couldn't help smiling. "You're right. I'm too adorable not to be liked!" Tobias' eyes gleamed.

Natalie's words seemed to have transported him back a few years in an instant.

At that time, Natalie was still an innocent, naive girl, and many things had yet to happen. She would constantly blurt out such narcissistic things, making him laugh.

It turned out that so many years had passed in the blink of an eye.

Tobias's voice had beca little hoarse. "Natalie, let's go." Tobias led Natalie towards the restaurant.

Natalie could already see Peter from a distance.

He was wearing a smart suit and sitting at a big table.

Though he was already old, he still looked domineering.

He'd even booked the whole restaurant. At this hour, the restaurant should have been packed with people, but it was completely empty now.

Natalie's breathing inexplicably beca little rapid.

She tried her best to adjust her breathing and put on a smile.

She and Tobias headed over to Peter.

When Peter saw Tobias holding Natalie's hand, he snorted.

He'd only wanted Tobias to come, but he hadn't expected him to bring her along. Peter always spoke his mind. "Speople really like to show up uninvited." Natalie had already experienced Peter's harshness, so she was prepared for it. She smiled in reply. "Mr. Whitlock, I cjust to see you."
