My Heart only Beats for You

Matthew stopped his footsteps.

He looked back, with faint fatigue in his expression as he said, "Selina, it's getting late, you should get ssleep too." All kinds of emotions surged in Selina's eyes as she said, "Your phone is still on the sofa downstairs." Matthew gave a plain hum in response and headed down the stairs.

Selina knew that Matthew was getting his phone.

She also knew that she should head back to her bedroom, since it was none of her business.

Yet, she couldn't restrain herself.

She had always been like this. She couldn't hold back when she was emotional.

Thus, just when Matthew got his phone and was heading back upstairs, Selina was already waiting for him.

Matthew said in a low voice, "Why are you still here?" Selina pursed her lips with her eyes misty.

Matthew sighed softly.

He should have just headed back to his bedroom, yet he couldn't bear to see Selina getting teary.

He thought that Selina was acting like this because he hadn't prepared the fruits she liked.

"Selina," Matthew called out in exasperation. "Don't be so stubborn. You should learn to control your emotions." Selina glared at him, "What if I don't?!" Matthew beceven more helpless. "It's up to you then." Selina was left speechless.

She got even more frustrated. "You should stop bothering me!" "Fine then. Sleep earlier," Matthew said as he was about to leave. Selina immediately said, "Does Joycelyn have sensitive skin too?" Matthew was stunned.

He looked back at her and said, "I don't know about that." He didn't understand why Selina would ask him this.

Selina's eyelashes were trembling as she said, "How would you not know about that?!" "Why would I know?!" Matthew protested.

"I saw your text message. You asked the R&D department to work on a product for sensitive skin. Aren't you doing that for Joycelyn?!" Selina finally let out the words that she was suppressing earlier. Matthew's face stiffened slightly.

"Selina, are you really this clueless or are you actually acting dumb?" Matthew asked.

He then said word by word, "I'm doing this for you!" Selina froze in place.

For her? How was that possible? Why would Matthew develop a cosmetic product for her sensitive skin when he didn't even like her?! "Why would you do that for me?" Selina muttered.

"If not for you, then who else?" Matthew questioned. His gaze was deep.

Who else was worth this much of Matthew's concern? Who else would make Matthew ask the Perry Group, the company that had never been involved in everyday chemical products, to start developing a product in this field, over a single sentence in their conversation? Selina was puzzled for a moment.

"You like Joycelyn, don't you? Aren't you and Joycelyn together already?" Selina asked.

She had already wanted to ask about this when they were in the kitchen. She then decided to ask this after dinner. However, she was distracted by Matthew's gift and she forgot.

Matthew remained silent.

He was left speechless at that question.

"Who told you that I like Joycelyn? Who told you that I'm with her?" Matthew asked.

Selina's eyelashes trembled as she said, "I saw you at the restaurant with Joycelyn that day, and you were there to meet her parents." Matthew was helpless as he explained, "I already told you that my father has a close relationship with Joycelyn's parents. They wanted to meet me, so we had a meal O together. It's as simple as that." Selina was left speechless.

Did she misunderstand him again? She licked her dry lips as she said, "But... but you didn't say anything when you sawthat day." Didn't he ignore her because of Joycelyn? Didn't he avoid her because he didn't want Joycelyn to misunderstand? Matthew's eyes dimmed as he said, "Selina, you were with Dylan at that time, what did you wantto say about that?" Selina was at a loss for words.

Her mind was in chaos.

"Didn't you try to mock and annoywith that gift just now?" Selina stared right into Matthew's eyes. Matthew did not know what to say.

He looked over at her helplessly as he said, "Selina, those are biscuits, why would I try to mock and annoy you with biscuits?" Matthew had no idea what Selina was thinking.

"You knew Joycelyn sent over the sbiscuits, and Peter ate them. So you bought the sbiscuits to pissoff!" Selina accused. Matthew had no idea how to respond.

Matthew explained patiently, "I didn't know about that. I noticed that you were unhappy when I cback, and Peter toldit was because he ate your biscuits. So I went out to buy them again for you..." He paused for a moment and with a mocking smirk, he said, "Yet you threw them away, Selina." Selina was quiet.

She froze in place.

It turned out that she had misunderstood him again.

And Peter...

Selina wanted to cry upon realizing this. Why had Peter told Matthew that she liked those biscuits, especially when she was already annoyed at them?! "I..." Selina murmured. "I didn't know you thought that I liked them. I assumed you were trying to pissoff." Matthew was speechless at how Selina exaggerated everything.

When he was about to respond, an idea suddenly flashed across his mind.

Why would Selina think like this? And when had Joycelyn visited the Perry family with a gift? Why would Selina react this strongly? Why would Selina be this mad and unhappy when she thought he developed a product for Joycelyn? Matthew felt a little overwhelmed with those questions in mind.

He stared at Selina and asked, "Selina, why are you reacting this strongly against Joycelyn?"

Selina didn't know what to say.

She did not want Matthew to see through her.

Selina gritted her teeth as she said,

"Because I don't like Joycelyn.

Because thought you were together with Joycelyn, Because in my opinion, you aren't that terrible of person, and it would be such a waste if you got together with Joycelyn!" Matthew did not reply.

His mind was suddenly clear.

A ripple appeared in his eyes.

It turned out that he had been overthinking all this while.

Well, how could that not be the case?

Matthew's gaze was clear and bright as he said, "Selina, I would never get together with Joydelyn. If there was something betweenand her, we would have been together long ago." "Really?" Selina asked, with imperceptible surprise flashing across her eyes.

"Yes," Matthew was certain when he replied.

Selina felt that the frustration in her was vacuumed away entirely at that moment.
