My Heart only Beats for You

Selina stared at the pendant for a few seconds before she cto her senses.

Shocked, she asked, "Mom, did you ask to meet Dylan today?" Cecilia nodded.

"Why did you do that?!" Selina exclaimed in dismay.

Cecilia sighed, "I was afraid that you were just playing around with Matthew, so I met Dylan to confirm it." Selina bit her lip and continued, "Playing around? I've told you so many times that I am serious with Matthew. You'll only mislead Dylan by asking him to meet you!" After all she went through to make things clear with Dylan, now her mother had to go and complicate things. She was afraid that it would cause a misunderstanding between her and Dylan.

Besides, she really did not want to hurt Dylan further. Compared to the trouble she might face, she was more reluctant to cause Dylan even more pain.

Cecilia understood immediately her daughter's concerns.

Cecilia patted Selina's shoulder calmly. "Don't get too worked up. Dylan didn't think too much about it. He confirmed withthat your breakup was final and he wished you and Matthew well. On the contrary, he even askedto approve your marriage." Selina was surprised.

Her eyes welled up with emotion.

"Is that so?" Selina murmured.

"Yes, its true." Cecilia added, "Dylan successfully convincedthat your relationship with Matthew is genuine. If it wasn't for his words, I really wouldn't have believed that you moved on from him." Selina took a deep breath.

"Mom, I'm a little upset. Can you please givesprivacy?" Cecilia stood up. "Sure. Take stto calm yourself down. I'll call Matthew to invite him over for dinner tonight." Selina nodded wordlessly.

After Cecilia left the room, Selina stared absent-mindedly at the pendant in her hand.

Although Selina loved Matthew with all her heart, Dylan was still her first love and they had many sweet memories together.

It is impossible to be completely unaffected by Dylan's gesture.

When Matthew arrived at the Whitlock family hthat night, Selina appeared to be preoccupied.

Cecilia noticed Selina's unusual behaviour.

She knew that it was because of her meeting with Dylan today.

However, she did not regret it.

The pendant was just a test. If Selina had truly moved on from Dylan, she should be unruffled by the gift.

Such a small matter should not cause any alarm to their relationship.

That was the reason why she'd handed the pendant to Selina and told her everything about her meeting with Dylan. She wanted to see how Selina would react.

If they manage to pass the test, she would give them her blessing and approval.

Matthew also sensed that something was wrong with Selina.

Keeping it to himself, he served Selina and waited on her lovingly.

After dinner, Matthew and Selina took their leave to return to the Perry family villa.

During the journey, Selina was silent, lost in her thoughts.

Matthew peeked at her with concern from the corner of his eyes while driving.

When they arrived at a large square, Matthew suddenly stopped the car.

Selina glanced at Matthew in confusion. "We haven't arrived yet." Matthew coaxed gently, "Con, let's go for a walk." "Oh, okay." Selina replied.

She was not really in the mood for a walk, but she didn't mind accompanying Matthew since he mentioned it.

Selina got out of the car and walked around with Matthew.

There were many stalls selling helium balloons to children playing in the square.

Matthew went over and bought all the helium balloons available for sale.

Selina was bemused. "Hayden's not here. Why did you buy so many balloons?" Matthew smiled and answered, "I bought them for you." Selina was taken by surprise.

She replied sheepishly. "I'm not a little girl anymore, you don't have to buyballoons." Matthew gazed deep into Selina's eyes. "To me, you will always be my little lady." So saying, he handed the cloud of balloons to her. "Take it." There were so many balloons that Selina had a hard ttrying to untangle all of their strings.

Selina couldn't help but burst into laughter. "This is the first tI've held so many balloons. If I am not careful, I might fly away." Matthew wrapped his arms around her waist from behind. "Now release them all." Selina gasped in astonishment, "Won't they fly away if I let go?" These were balloons filled with helium, not air. They would definitely fly away if she loosened her grip.

Matthew replied, "Yes, let them fly away." "Seeing so many balloons floating up to the sky will be a sight to behold." Matthew said.

Selina wanted to give it a try.

She loosened her grip slowly.

Countless balloons began to float up into the sky.

Selina looked up and took in the spectacular view. The scene was breathtaking as the colorful balloons contrasted beautifully against the dark night sky.

"Are you feeling better now?" Matthew whispered into Selina's ears.

Selina was astounded by his keen observation.

She swirled around to look at him. "You knew that I was in a bad mood?" "Of course I do." Matthew flicked Selina's forehead gently. "Silly girl, it was obvious that you were in a bad mood." Hearing that, Selina felt a little guilty.

After all, Dylan was the reason why she was in a bad mood.

Thinking about your ex while spending twith your current partner was a big no-no.

Matthew let go of Selina's waist and held her hands in his. "Those balloons are like your worries that hang over you like a cloud. Now that you have let them all go, all your troubles have disappeared as well." Matthew's voice was low and magnetic, dripping with charisma. He had the ability to make her trust everything he said without doubt.

Selina started biting her lip. She wasn't sure whether she should tell Matthew what happened.

After a while, she released them.

She tried to force a smile. "Yes. All of my troubles are gone." "So now it's tto be happy."

Matthew's eyes were fixed on her.

Looking at Matthew's obsidian Ο Π which were staring right at her, they appeared to be brighter than the stars in the sky. A sudden impulse arese in Selina's heart. Selina could not control herself from blurting out everything.

She confessed honestly to him. "Matthew, did you know why was in a bad mood? Earlier today, Mom Mom went to see Dylan because she still doesn't believe in me, so my mood was affected." Matthew was silent for a moment.

Nonetheless, he regained his composure in a blink of an eye.

With the other hand, he wrapped Selina's waist and embraced hem overset Slash the Find over et website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. The warmness comforted her.

"Everyone has a past. Remember not to dwell in it." His words were as warm as the sun in the cold winter.

A look of resolution flashed across Selina's eyes. "Dylan also gavea pendant. He asked my mom to hand it to me. Why don't I throw it away now?" Her idea was straightforward. Since she was with Matthew, she should not keep anything that reminded her of Dylan.

"There's no need." The words sounded in Selina's ears.

Selina was stunned.
