My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

"Natalie, you are really fortunate. My brother seems to really care for you. He got so mad with me when he found out that I scared you away."

"Now that you're here, I'm going to lose my place as being the most favored girl in the house. I'm a tiny bit sad."

While Selina was blabbering on, Natalie's tensed face gradually relaxed.

She didn't have a good first impression of Selina.

However, right now, she felt that Selina wasn't that hateful after all. In fact, she was kind of cute.

Tobias came into Natalie's bedroom.

He wanted to check if Natalie was awake.

As soon as he reached the door, Tobias heard sounds of talking and laughter coming from within.

His gaze darkened.

Natalie was awake? And it sounded like Selina was with her.

Could it be that the two of them had made up with each other?

However, it was not surprising. Selina was extremely friendly, while Natalie was an optimistic and cheerful person. They were about the same age, hence it was only natural that the two became friends.

"Natalie, your skin is so perfect. I've heard that s*x improves your skin. How many times do you guys do it at night? One look at my brother and I can tell he's good in bed. You must be in heaven."

Tobias had just walked to the door when he heard Selina's voice, and he heard every single word she said.

Because of Selina's words, Natalie's face flushed red again.

Selina was fine overall, but sometimes the way she spoke was a little too forward.

As she blushed, she accidentally glanced upon Tobias, standing by the door.

Tobias' face was looking a little stiff.

Natalie was immediately stunned.

Meanwhile, Selina was still happily chatting away.

"Natalie, you need my brother to massage you more, right? It's nicer to have bigger breasts. More womanly that way, wouldn't you say so?"

"Hey, Natalie, why have you suddenly turned mute?" Selina looked at her gawking expression.

Then she followed the direction of Natalie's gaze, and she was also taken aback.

Tobias stood at the door with a displeased look on his face.

"Um, I'm hungry. I'm going down to grab something. You two, enjoy your chat." Selina ran out of the room at lightning speed.

After Selina left, the huge bedroom suddenly fell into a dead silence.

The atmosphere was really awkward.

After a long time, Tobias spoke. 'Are you feeling better?"

Hearing him speak, Natalie felt less nervous.

She nodded, "Much better."

Tobias strode over to Natalie’s bed, "Selina has been abroad since she was a child. She has adapted to the foreign culture, thus she can tend to be a bit wild at times. I hope you don't take it to heart."

Natalie's cheeks turned bright red.

In fact, she didn't mind it at all. She actually liked Selina the way she was.

She was straightforward. She said what she wanted to, and didn't beat around the bush.

"Um, was I drunk for a long time?" Natalie changed the topic.

"For a while, but you fell asleep pretty quickly." Tobias said in a low voice, "You did do some stuff while you were drunk though."

Her heart suddenly rose.

"What stuff?" She stared at Tobias nervously.

Tobias' deep eyes fell on Natalie's face. "Seducing me, for example."

Natalie was dumbfounded.

Alcohol really was the devil. There was no way she acted wantonly after just one night of drinking, right?

"We... we didn't..." Natalie's lips were dry.

Tobias approached her and stared into her eyes.

"No, but it seemed like you were really looking forward to it."

His tone was dripping with lust.

His desire the day before got cut short by Selina, and he had to suppress it back down.

Now that he saw Natalie, he could feel it rising up in his body again.

Natalie was even more uneasy.

Her eyelashes trembled, "I didn't."

"No?" Tobias suddenly raised her chin. "You sure? Hmm?"

His last word seemed to imply something else. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Being stared at by Tobias like this, Natalie suddenly felt that she was at a loss.

Every time this man teased her, she would be flustered.

Then, when she was starting to get into it, he would act as if nothing had happened.

Thinking of this, Natalie felt a random burst of courage. She was always the one being bullied by Tobias, it was time for her to pay back.

If he could tease her, she could take the lead as well!

Natalie wanted to turn the tables and be the master.

Natalie puffed out her chest, "Even if I did, so what? I just wanted to tease you. What are you going to do about it?"

She looked straight at Tobias with her clear eyes, and her face was full of confidence.

Tobias' lips curled into a slight smile.

"Natalie, this is more like you." His voice was low and hoarse.

Natalie was startled.

She didn't understand what he meant, looking at him in confusion.

Tobias stared at Natalie, "Like a weed who doesn't get beat down whether it's sunshine or in the rain. The girl who was singing in that karaoke bar so confidently, the girl who is strong. That's you."

Speaking of this, Tobias paused, "Natalie, this is how you should be. Not running away and getting drunk when my supposed ex-girlfriend comes knocking. Where are your confidence and courage?"

Natalie's heart felt like it was being punched.

She remembered the first time she met Tobias. Although she knew that he was the president of an empire, in front of him, she was still full of selfconfidence, as if she was not afraid of anything.

Since when did she become more and more insecure?

Natalie thought, perhaps when she began to care more about Tobias, she was afraid because she didn't know any better. She was insecure because she cared.

As Tobias walked into her heart bit by bit, she found that the gap between her and Tobias was too huge, thus she couldn't help but feel inferior.

"Natalie, be yourself again. Promise me," Tobias said as he stared deeply into her eyes.

Natalie's reflection in his eyes was a scared helpless little girl, not the girl he met so long ago, who was afraid of nothing.

Natalie took a deep breath.

"You're right, I want to be myself again!" She said to Tobias, and also to herself.

Tobias smiled faintly, "Then let's go down to eat."

Natalie was about to get out of bed when she suddenly stopped. "Wait, did I really seduce you when I was drunk?"

"What do you think?" A smirk flashed across Tobias' eyes.

After thinking about it, Natalie suddenly raised her head, "It is what it is. Anyway, you are a handsome president, I should take advantage!"

Tobias laughed and suddenly picked up Natalie.

Before she could react, Tobias had set her down on the dressing table.
