My Heart only Beats for You

Selina's lips twitched.

She wanted to refute Peter's statement.

It wasn't what he thought it was.

Matthew had already found a new lover, so Matthew being tolerant to her was all just an act.

Cecilia seemed to have noticed that Selina was about to say something that would displease Peter, because she cut in with a smile, "It is indeed true. That's why everyone is saying that Selina was blessed with a good man. Isn't that right, Selina?" After she said that, Cecilia looked at Selina.

There was a hint of warning in her eyes.

Selina swallowed the words that she had wanted to say.

The impulsiveness she'd felt a moment ago passed and she reined in her emotions.

No matter what her own desires were, she still had to prioritize Peter's condition.

At this age, it was better not to make Peter angry.

However, she still had to relieve the anger in her heart.

Selina stood up.

She smiled at Peter and said, "Grandpa, why don't you continue eating while I go to the kitchen to check on Matthew's progress." After Selina left, Peter muttered, "How could the dish be ready? Didn't Matthew just leave?" Cecilia said a little insincerely, "Isn't this just the way lovers show affection?" Peter smiled and said, "You're right. They really are an affectionate couple. They couldn't even stand being apart for such a short while." Everyone at the table laughed together.

Of course, except for Peter, everyone else's smiles were slightly awkward.

When Selina entered the kitchen, Matthew was cutting the vegetables.

The normal impression he gave was of a rich, noble heir, so he should have looked awkward and unnatural doing something as plebian as this. Even so, if anything, it only made his air even warmer and inviting.

Matthew did not stop his movements even though he felt someone looking at him from behind.

He said softly, "Aren't you being a little impatient? It will take stto make this dish. You'll have to wait for a while." Selina bit her lip.

After a moment, she uttered. "There's no need for you to go so far for an act. It just looks fake. You don't have to do something like this." In fact, she understood that there was no need for her to enter the kitchen, and she didn't have to say these words to Matthew.

However, she couldn't help it no matter how hard she tried.

Matthew paused for a moment and said, "Since you don't like the dishes we're having, I'll cook something you like for you. It's not as complicated as you think it is." Selina sneered, "Are you really so kind?" "I'm not." Matthew suddenly turned his head and looked at Selina. The look in his eyes was deep and calm. "If you think that I'm not kind, then I'm not." "It's not a matter of what I say you are, because you're indeed not a kind person. You don't have to pretend to be nice in front of my grandpa. In fact, you should know better than anyone what kind of person you are!" Matthew didn't respond. It was as if he hadn't heard what Selina had said and just continued doing his things. Upon seeing Matthew's lack of response, Selina beceven more provoking, "Matthew, even if you can't hold back your desire to find a woman, couldn't you just wait a little longer? Why did you do something like that when you know very well how delicate Grandpa's condition is? Are you deliberately trying to make it hard for Grandpa by letting the whole world know about your affair?" Matthew frowned.

"Selina," Matthew parted his thin lips. "It was my fault for making such a mistake. I'm sorry." "Do you think that apologizing would help?" "I've already had the news articles taken down." "Regardless, what if something was missed out? And what if it was seen by Grandpa?" "That isn't possible," Matthew said firmly.

Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps approaching.

Selina quickly shut her mouth and adjusted her expression.

She was afraid that it was Peter. She didn't know what kind of trouble would arise if he were to see her angry expression.

Fortunately, it was Natalie who cin.

Selina's eyelashes trembled slightly. "Natalie." Natalie looked at Selina and then at Matthew, "Are you alright?" There was a hint of uneasiness in her tone.

She didn't think that Selina had gone to the kitchen just to chat with Matthew.

Selina had been in a strange mood since the afternoon. This made Natalie worry that they would argue, prompting her spontaneous arrival. Selina didn't say a word.

Natalie was not Peter. It was hard for Selina to hide anything from her.

However, Matthew opened his mouth and said expressionlessly, "Natalie, nothing happened." Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.

It was good that nothing had happened.

She looked at Selina, "Selina, let's go out. I'm afraid that Mr. Whitlock will suspect something if you stay here for too long." This wasn't a possibility. Mr.

Whitlock wouldn't suspect anything if she stayed for a long time. In fact, he would probably think that Selina was being intimate with Matthew. However, Natalie was afraid of the potential conflicts that would occur, which was the reason for her words.

Selina pursed her lips and followed Natalie out.

Outside the kitchen, Natalie paused.

She stretched out her hand and pinched Selina's face. "Con, smile. Mr. Whitlock would definitely be worried if he saw how bad your complexion was." Selina forced a smile onto her face.

Her smile looked fake, and her gaze was stiff.

Natalie said doubtfully, "Selina, I feel like you're being really strange today." "Really?" "Of course!" Natalie said with a serious look.

"I don't think so." Natalie thought for a moment. "You seem to have reacted strongly to the incident where Matthew's scandal was exposed." All of a sudden, Selina's heart skipped a beat.

She felt a pang of inexplicable guilt.

"I'm just angry. I'm angry that Matthew has done something like that when Grandpa is still here. There's nothing more to it than that.

It is because of Grandpa that I'm angry!" Selina emphasized those words.

She was telling Natalie about it, and was also telling herself the samen Sa* the FindNxn't website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Natalie sighed.

Her gaze fell on Selina's face. "Selina, why don't you try to look at this matter from another perspective? It's not wrong for Matthew to do this!" Selina's breathing froze.

Natalie continued, "After all, Matthew has the freedom to start a new relationship. He has done nothing wrong. What's more, the fact that he's helping us and even et cto our house during these few days to help us in this act is already good enough. We can't ask for more. After all, he doesn't owe the Whitlock family anything, right?" Selina bit her lip hard.

What Natalie said was right. Of course, she knew that.

However, she felt a wave of inexplicable anger in her heart, a kind of indescribable anger.

Ever since she saw the article of Matthew with the celebrity, the feeling of anxiety and uneasiness had been bothering her.

It was just like what she had just said to Matthew in the kitchen. She was aware that she had no right or even ΟΠ need to say something like that. However, she'd still said it, and she didn't even know why. After a while, Selina said, "Natalie, I understand. Let's get back to dinner. You don't have to worry about it. I know what I'm doing." After arriving at the dining table, Peter didn't think twice about the smile that Selina had forced out.

He said teasingly, "Selina, I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship nship with Matthew. I can't believe that you two are so attached to each other that you can't even be separated for a moment."
