My Heart only Beats for You

Matthew nodded, a glint of hostility flashing through his eyes, "I'll find out who's behind this." Selina took out her mobile phone. There was no record of her calling him this afternoon in her own call history. Someone had impersonated her by using her number to call Matthew.

Matthew carried on, "Selina, my cell phone is no ordinary cell phone. In order to prevent confidential business intel from leaking, my phone is protected by a strong security network. It is impossible for a common person to just fabricate your cell phone number and calllike this. That requires ssophisticated engineering." Once she heard this, it was as if her heart had been dropped into running water, and was now being swept around in the currents.

When Matthew received this call, it was exactly when she had been out with Lothar.

The person behind this had plotted everything to perfection, down to the timing. This couldn't possibly be just a coincidence.

Lothar Cowell! This man's npopped up in her head.

She was now feeling undeniable suspicion towards him. What else could explain this coincidence? Her eyelashes trembled at this thought.

However, she simply couldn't believe that he would try to sabotage her.

One shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

Lothar didn't seem like someone who would try to sabotage another person.

He was a boy with two adorable dimples when he smiled.

He had a kind face.

Selina knew that he was a good person.

He had once saved a dog that was in front of her car. Back when he was at the restaurant, he had rescued a young girl from a molester. She could not believe that such a man would be involved in a conspiracy.

There must be something wrong. There must be something else going on, something bigger.

Yet if it wasn't Lothar, who else could it be? A bolt of lightning shot through her mind.

Caroline.

She had mentioned before that she would have her revenge on her.

Could this all be Caroline's doing? Recalling that mysterious man by the gates of the villa, as well as Caroline's sudden appearance, Selina's breathing started to quicken.

It was possible. It was entirely possible.

Selina turned back to Matthew and said, "Don't go looking into it. I know who it is." Matthew was shocked to hear this.

She lowered her voice and continued, "Caroline, it must be her." His eyebrows furrowed tightly as he echoed her words, "Caroline." When he was talking with Selina the other day, he had an inkling that Caroline might be a problem, and thus decided to formally fire her this upcoming Monday.

Yet he didn't expect that such a thing would happen before he even had the chance to do so.

He quickly said, "I'll go look for her." With her trying to cbetween him and Selina, he had to get to the bottom of this.

Selina bit her lip.

She knew that if Matthew were to interfere, then there would be whole different ending to things.

Caroline truly deserved to be punished.

She had committed a truly heinous act. Search The (F)indwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

But...

A flash of doubt passed through her eyes.

The memories of her and Caroline's shared past were still vivid in her mind.

Selina had an arrogant personality. She had also studied in an upper-class school since young, so her classmates all cfrom wealthy families not unlike her own. Therefore, there were not many people who could tolerate her behavior. In other words, she only had a handful of friends.

And Caroline was one of them.

They had a wonderful friendship in the past.

They would whisper gossip to each other, go shopping together, and comment on which clothes the other person looked good in.

Yet now...

Selina's teeth sunk down even harder into her lip.

If she hadn't called Caroline over, and if it weren't for the many occurrences between her and Matthew, things would not have ended like this! Her heart softened once more.

She directed her attention to his face and she pleaded, "Matthew, promise me, please? You don't have to worry about this matter. Just leave it to me." Matthew's tone turned solemn, "Selina, this is a very serious issue." She bit down even harder on her lip.

A hint of hesitation surfaced in her eyes.

Moments later, she gently wrapped his hand in hers, and said, "I'm no longer a child. I'll take care of this matter. This is the last chance I'll give Caroline. I beg you." One could see the struggle in Matthew's eyes.

After a long pause, he finally compromised.

With a deep voice, he replied, "Selina, we're only giving her one last chance." She nodded in reply, her eyes holding a layer of bleakness.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly felt tense.

Selina tried to lighten the mood, "Oh, right. I've forgotten the most important thing. I'm want to see the baby. I want to meet my little nephew." As she spoke, she started to move herself down from the bed.

Matthew helped her get out of bed.

"I'll take you there." With that, he brought her to the baby's room.

Natalie was residing in a VIP room in the hospital. In order not to disturb her rest, she separated from the baby. It was only when the baby needed to feed, that the nurse would bring the baby over to her.

Cecilia did not allow any of the nurses to take care of the baby. She alone nursed him. As for Tobias, he was busy taking care of Natalie in the other room.

The moment Selina entered the ward, she called out, "Mom, I'm here to take a look at my nephew." Cecilia gestured for her to keep quiet.

Then, she waved her hand at her, telling her not to enter.

Both Selina and Matthew stayed outside the room.

Moments later, Cecilia walked out.

"The baby has just fallen asleep. Let him sleep for a while." With a look of curiosity on her face, Selina said, "I don't even know what the baby looks like yet. I haven't even seen a newborn baby before." Cecilia's face darkened at this, "You still have the audacity to say this? Look what you've done!" Selina didn't answer.

She knew she was in the wrong and hence pursed her lips without saying a word.

Cecilia began to lecture her, "Selina, as your mother, what do you wantto say to you? It's one thing for יד you to go around causing trouble. It's an entirely different matter for you to let Natalie calong and create trouble with you! You knew that she might enter labor at any moment, and yet you still took her out at this tof the night. What were you thinking? It was just our luck that Matthew happened to bump into you, otherwise, my grandson would have already been dead!" Matthew couldn't help but step forward and defend Selina, "Cecilia, Selina didn't intend for this to happen." Selina shot him a look, "It's not a big deal. Let her speak. It really was my fault." Thinking back on this matter still made her heart race.

It was exactly as Cecilia said. If they hadn't met Matthew by chance, there would be unimaginable consequences! Despite hearing what Selina had just said, Cecilia didn't find it appropriate to carry on after Matthew's interjection.

She thus shot Selina a stone- cold look and said, "You better watch yourself next time!"

Selina put on a look of obedience as she said sincerely, "Mom, I will m definitely do as you say I promise I you that will never do such a stupid thing in the future!" Cecilia let out an exasperated sigh.

After that, Selina looked at the baby room with anticipation, "Mom, can Matthew and I go in and take a look at the baby? I promise I won't wake him up." Cecilia relented.

She initially wanted to follow them in, but she thought that there would be too many people in the room and it would cause too much of a commotion. Besides, Matthewal nee a reliable person, so as long as he was in there, nothing bad would happen.

Cecilia thus waited outside.

Selina and Matthew walked into the room.

The little baby was laying in the cot.

His body was so tiny, tiny enough that Selina felt if she were to give him so much as a small squeeze, his body would break under the pressure.
