My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Aunt Lee finally gave in when she heard Tobias. She said, "I'll go to the kitchen and get you some chili sauce."

Natalie glanced at Tobias gratefully and a smile appeared on her lips.

Her smile was pure and charming, which was rooted in Tobias' memories deeply.

Aunt Lee took out a jar of chili sauce she made herself. She added some pepper, sesame oil and other spices to make this concoction.

Natalie scooped out a huge spoonful of the chili sauce and put it on her plate. The sauce was aromatic and spicy, which elevated the taste of the dishes.

She could not help but shout happily and was eager to get another spoonful of the sauce. However, Tobias caught her wrist as soon as she reached out for it.

"Stop eating too much. Chili is not good for the child." Tobias' voice was full of affection that he was not even aware of.

Natalie was taken aback. She stared at Tobias' hand that caught her wrist and felt ashamed.

How could her hand pale in comparison to a man's hand?

Tobias noticed the guilt on Natalie's face and he added softly, "It's okay to eat a little but don't go overboard."

Natalie let out a dry laugh and replied, "Why are you so sure that I'm pregnant?"

Tobias maintained an expressionless look on his face. "You should be careful even if we're just speculating."

"Do you always do things like this? It must be tiring to live like this." Natalie gobbled down a big mouthful of meat.

Tobias glanced at Natalie and replied, "What do you expect? How can I lead YS Group if I'm not cautious?"

After mulling over his words, Natalie could not help but agree with him. Tobias was the president of YS Group and he must do things differently from an ordinary person like her.

"I still think that you live a tiring life. My dream is never to live like this," Natalie replied while wolfing down the food. Her cheeks were bulging from it.

"Then what's your dream?"

"I'll travel around to admire nature and enjoy life."

Tobias raised his eyebrows. "Shouldn't luxury bags and designer clothes be part of a woman's dream?"

"Who told you that? I don't want those things," Natalie swallowed her food and continued, "My ultimate goal is to live a comfortable life."

Her goal was to live a comfortable life?

Tobias watched as Natalie propped up her slender and straight legs against another chair while eating. It struck him that this woman was indeed living a comfortable life.

He thought that Natalie was very different from all the women he met previously.

For example, none of those wealthy young ladies would place their legs on another chair when they were having dinner.

None of them would risk exposing their underwear by wearing a short dress.

Of course, Tobias believed that none of the women out there would do the latter, let alone the daughters from wealthy families.

Before he met Natalie, women like her would be vulgar to him.

However, Natalie seemed adorable when she exhibited these kinds of behaviors.

After the meal, Tobias began to take care of some official business on his computer. He was fixated on the screen and he would furrow his eyebrows occasionally or type on the keyboard swiftly. Natalie mused, "It must not be easy to be the president of YS Group."

Nevertheless, this man was really handsome when he focused on his work.

Natalie thought that she never met such a handsome man in her life.

However, another thought occurred to her and contradicted her opinion. Remington, whom she met previously, also had a handsome face. In fact, he was on par with Tobias in terms of looks.

However, Tobias was more masculine. He was very attractive when he was working. Tobias sensed Natalie's strange gaze and turned to look at Natalie. He asked, "Why are you staring at me instead of reading your book?"

Natalie was speechless.

She was indeed reading a book in the living room but she could not help stealing glances at Tobias from time to time.

She did not expect Tobias to catch her in the act after just a few glances. It was really embarrassing for her.

"Do I look ugly today?" Natalie changed the topic deliberately.

Tobias stared at Natalie's pink dress and commented, "Well, it does not look good on you."

"Then why didn't you stop me from wearing it? No wonder the students were casting strange looks at me when I was on campus."

"Didn't I suggest you wear something else yesterday? Of course, I won't stop you if you insist on wearing it. Sometimes, it's useless for me to stop you. You have to experience everything yourself." There was a hint of coldness on Tobias' face.

Natalie snorted softly.

"Just throw it away if you think it's ugly. I'll buy you a new one," Tobias added flatly.

"No. The more people said it's ugly, the more I want to wear it." Natalie was livid.

Tobias glanced at Natalie. This woman was very odd. Other women always dressed up to look beautiful but Natalie wanted to dress up horribly. In fact, she insisted on wearing the same outfit despite others telling her that it was ugly.

"It's up to you," Tobias replied blandly.

Natalie closed her book and concluded, "I'm going to sleep now."

Tobias continued to focus on the computer screen and handled his work. Half an hour later, he suddenly heard a scream from Natalie's bedroom.

Tobias frowned and went upstairs to Natalie's bedroom swiftly.

The door to Natalie's bedroom was not locked, hence Tobias twisted the knob and opened the bedroom door immediately.

He spotted Natalie sitting on the bed in her pajamas with a terrified look on her face.

"What's wrong?" There was a hint of nervousness in Tobias' tone that he did not even notice.

"My period is late!" Natalie replied with a trembling voice.

Tobias did not know what to say.

His handsome face stiffened. He thought that Natalie was shrieking because of something serious but it turned out to be something trivial.

"Does this mean that I'm pregnant if I don't have my period?" Natalie was very flustered.

Tobias was stunned.

Back then, he only assumed that Natalie might be pregnant but this possibility was relatively low even to him. After all, Earth might not be able to accommodate the human population if every woman would conceive every single time they did the act.

However, Tobias was cautious and he always made sure that he would watch out for things.

"Sometimes a woman's period will be delayed, right?" Tobias asked after a short pause.

Natalie gave Tobias a strange look. She asked, "So you know about this too? You are really a woman's ally."

Tobias was at a loss for words.

"Stop joking," Tobias retorted seriously.

Natalie was not in the mood to joke too. She replied solemnly, "My period's always on time but sometimes it's late for a day."

Tobias heaved a sigh of relief. "Then, we won't know for sure until tomorrow. Maybe it'll happen tomorrow."

Natalie was a little relaxed after hearing Tobias' remarks. However, she found it miserable when she had to wait until the next day to verify her concerns.

"I heard that drinking honey water will accelerate the cycle." Natalie suddenly came up with an idea.

Natalie pouted. She was so anxious but this man did not care about her.

He was a horrible guy and she despised him for it.

The next second, Tobias returned with a glass of honey water. Natalie was embarrassed as she drank it.

She did not feel any difference after drinking it. Natalie looked crestfallen and wailed, "It didn't work."

"Maybe you'll have to wait for a while," Tobias suggested.

Tobias was the youngest president in the ranking of the world's wealthiest men. He graduated from a world- renowned university and had an enormous expanse of knowledge.

Despite that, he did not know much about women's physiological nature, thus he could not console Natalie.

"I heard that massaging the stomach might help." Natalie came up with another idea in the midst of panic.
