My Heart only Beats for You

"Natalie, if you had a serious illness which would make you die quicker, and I had no way to save you, would you choose to tellor hide it from me?" Natalie held her breath.

Why would Tobias ask such a question? "Natalie, would you tellor create a misunderstanding between us and leave by yourself?" Natalie hesitated for a moment and said, "If I can start a new life after I leave, I will definitely choose not to tell you and leave. I don't want you to suffer for a lifetbecause of me." Tobias' eyes narrowed.

He let go of Natalie and said, "I'll comfort Mom." Tobias saw Cecilia in the living room.

Cecilia was sitting on the couch. Her face was pale and she supported her forehead with her hand.

"Mom." Tobias walked over.

Cecilia glanced at Tobias and said, "Tobias, you know what your sister has done, you...' She hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you call her and persuade her? She always listens to you. Can you persuade her to cback?" "Mom." Tobias said in a low voice, "Selina has been a rebel since young. She even dropped out of college because of love. Do you still remember this?" Cecilia certainly remembered. "How can I forget? She's always makingworried and mad. If only she was half as good as you, I wouldn't have been so angry!" "Mom, everyone has their way of living. Do you remember what I told you when Selina dropped out of school?" Cecilia was stunned.

She had forgotten.

"I told you that finishing college is a good thing, but it's not necessarily bad that Selina didn't. She has the right to make her own decisions." Cecilia remembered.

She nodded. "You toldthat at that time." Tobias continued, "So, it's the snow. Selina has her own way of living. The life you want her to live is different from the one she wants, but it doesn't necessarily mean she is wrong. There is no complete right and wrong in this world." "But she got rid of Matthew's child. How can she do that! Is that not wrong?" Cecilia was emotional.

"Mom, she has already done it. You are only hurting yourself by getting angry. You still have Hayden and Norwell. You have forgotten about them." Tobias raised his voice.

Cecilia fell silent.

After a long time, she waved her hand and said, "You're right. I still have Hayden and Norwell. If I let her be the death of me, I won't get to witness my grandson's marriage. Forget it. She can do whatever she wants. I'm completely disappointed with her now." Cecilia's voice was filled with sadness and helplessness.

"I'm going to rest. My head has exploded because of Selina." Cecilia stood up, but she stopped right after, as if she had thought of something.

She turned to look at Tobias and said, "Tobias, call Matthew and ask if he knows about this. The Whitlock family has really failed Matthew." "Mom, I'll call him. Go get srest." Cecilia sighed and headed upstairs.

Tobias' arm was stiff as he took out his phone.

The call didn't go through.

Tobias failed for the second time.

Natalie cforward and said worriedly, "Are you calling Matthew? I called but no one answered. I don't know if Matthew knows." While Natalie was talking, Tobias' phone rang.

Natalie's eyes widened.

It was Matthew.

"Matthew." Tobias picked up the call.

His voice was a little husky, which indicated that he was in a bad mood, and so was Matthew.

"Tobias, what's the matter?" "It's Selina." Before he finished speaking, Matthew interrupted him. He said in a low voice, "Tobias, please tell Madam Lawson that I can't keep my promise to her. Please apologize to her on my behalf." Tobias understood the despair and helplessness in Matthew's voice.

"Matthew, I will tell Mom. I know about you and my sister. Don't overthink." Matthew chuckled. Even through the phone, his chuckles made people extremely sad. "Tobias, Selina is younger than me. In my eyes, she is a little girl, so no matter what she does, I can accept it. But this time, she really hurt me, she..." Matthew couldn't go on.

"Matthew, forget her. You will meet the right person in the future." This was what Selina wanted him to tell Matthew.

"Tobias, do you think that my heart can still accommodate others after being hurt by her?" After a pause, Matthew continued, "Selina's body is weak after the surgery. Take care of her. She needs to get a good rest, or else she will fall ill." When Matthew said this, he felt that he had said too much.

He laughed at himself and said, "Well, that's it. Tobias, I'm hanging up now. I'm really not in the mood to talk." After hanging up the phone, Natalie said, "Tobias, does Matthew know about Selina's surgery?" "He does." Natalie looked puzzled. "How could Selina do such a thing? That day when she mentioned it, I thought she was just joking. If I knew it was true, I would watch her all the time. Otherwise, I wouldn't." "Natalie." Tobias said. "I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest now." Natalie was stunned.

"Go and rest then." Tobias headed upstairs.

Somehow, Natalie felt that Tobias was feeling lonely and sad.

Doubts flashed across Natalie's eyes.

Why did she suddenly feel that something was wrong? She couldn't figure out what it was, but she just felt in her heart that there was something wrong.

In a village on the edge of Agaphen City.

Essie was looking at her magic.

Lothar crouched down beside her. "Essie, does your thing really work?" "Of course it works." Essie's face was full of pride. "Lettell you

this skill is magical, but the people who live in the big city don't know it at all. Speople with this skill can manipulate the body." Lothar's jaw dropped. "You can too?"

Essie smiled sheepishly. "I can't. Only the older generation are capable of There's noone left now that. There's Even these with magic are few. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't do this." "Is it harmful?" Lothar asked again.

Essie thought for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, it is harmful. But I'm only doing this to restore your appearance."

Speaking of this, Essie thought of another thing. "But I saw a girl in the hospital last time. Ske must have N been framed by someone. Someone poisoned her while she was pregnant. How evil."
