My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Natalie had been bullied since she was a child. It was the end of their relationship when Madison and Queenie forced her to sleep with an idiot.

"No," Tobias shook his head and continued, "I'm trying to say that you sisters don't look alike."

He glanced at Natalie carefully and added, "You don't resemble your sister or your mother."

Natalie snorted, "I'm glad I don't. I don't want to be like them anyway."

Tobias did not continue the topic. After arriving home, he went to sleep in another bedroom.

"Rest well," Tobias said.

"Yeah, good night."

The next day, Natalie noticed that Tobias was already enjoying his breakfast at the table when she woke up.

Tobias was eating very elegantly and he looked like a noble. It was enjoyable to watch him eat.

"I'm going on a business trip today. I'll give you this card," Tobias handed a gold card to Natalie and added, "You can use the card if you need to buy anything."

Natalie wanted to tell Tobias that she had no need for it and she did not want to use his money casually.

However, she decided to go with it on second thought. Otherwise, Tobias would bring up their agreement again.

She would just accept the card and not use it.

"Where are you going for your business trip?" Natalie asked.

"The United States."

"The United States? I heard that women there are very sexy with hourglass figures."

Tobias glanced at Natalie and replied, "They're hot alright. At least, they're hotter than you."

Natalie was annoyed when she heard Tobias. She retorted, "What do you mean they're hotter than me? I'm not that far off compared to them, alright?"

"You're not bad. I've experienced it first handed."

Natalie coughed as she realized that she had once again fallen into Tobias' trap.

When Tobias was leaving, Natalie wanted to ask when he was coming back. However, she decided not to probe him after mulling it over.

After all, they were only pretending to be husband and wife. Therefore, it had nothing to do with her when Tobias was coming back.

When Natalie was on her own again, she contemplated going back home to bring over some of her clothes.

Although Tobias had bought some clothes for her the previous night, she was reluctant to wear them because they were too expensive.

Even though she was Tobias' nominal 'wife', she still knew her place. She was poor and she did not have any wishful thinking about turning into a swan like the ugly duckling.

It was about two in the afternoon when Natalie snuck back home. She had chosen to go back at this time because she knew she would not bump into anybody at home.

Her father was working in another city and her younger sister was studying in a university in another city too. During her semester break, she would take up multiple part-time jobs there to earn her tuition fees.

Normally, there were only Madison, Brayden and Queenie at home. However, they were usually not at home at two in the afternoon.

Natalie quietly snuck into her shabby little room to pack up her clothes and some daily necessities.

There were a lot of things Natalie needed to bring with her, so she packed them in a luggage. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

She was at the entrance of her house when Brayden happened to come back.

Brayden almost blurted out "b*tch" but he swallowed it.

"Where is the money?" Brayden asked.

"I'll give it to you soon." Natalie was very impatient.

Brayden snorted, "You'd better do that. Give me twenty thousand dollars at the end of the month!"

"Twenty thousand dollars!" Natalie widened her eyes and uttered, "I don't have it."

"I don't care!" Brayden threatened, "Otherwise, I will leak your photos to the media and humiliate Tobias."

Natalie pushed Brayden away and exclaimed, "I'll give it to you. Go away!"

After leaving the Godfrey family house, Natalie dragged the luggage back to Themyscira Apartment. Initially, Natalie had planned to splurge a little money.
