My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Chapter 96

Natalie smiled, embarrassed. She thought that she was useless to him.

When Cecilia first asked Tobias to bring her along to his dinner, Natalie felt uneasy initially.

She subconsciously had a feeling that she was going to humiliate Tobias. After all, she wasn't well- versed in anything. She thought that she wouldn't be presentable enough.

She didn't expect that not only did she not make Tobias lose face, she had also inadvertently helped Tobias to get out of a predicament somehow. This was beyond her expectations.

Natalie thought, "Tobias would have been drunk if it wasn't for me. The presidents would have shoved him bottles of alcohol. If something indecent happened between him and those women, he would have no choice but to work with them."

Due to Cecilia's words, Tobias shifted his gaze to Natalie's face.

When she felt a burning gaze on her, Natalie was seemingly devoid of any fickle emotions. All she could feel was nervousness.

"What's wrong with me? Why don't I dare to look at Tobias after coming back from the dinner? Somehow I would feel nervous if I lay eyes on him." Natalie thought.

"She did help me a great deal," Tobias said in a low voice. He continued slowly, "As my wife, Natalie is indeed qualified."

Natalie felt like her head exploded in an instant.

What did Tobias mean? Was he praising her publicly?

What's more, he also said that she was indeed qualified enough, which meant that she was somehow worthy of Tobias.

Natalie suddenly had an indescribable feeling welling up within her.

Throughout this marriage agreement, Natalie always thought that she was not worthy of Tobias.

After all, Tobias was the CEO of the YS Group, and she, Natalie, was just a poor girl from a poverty- stricken family.

After what had happened lately and coupled with what Tobias had just said, Natalie felt like she suddenly had an illusion.

"It turns out that I'm not as bad as I thought. It turns out that I'm worthy of Tobias." She secretly pondered.

"Natalie," Cecilia said as she held Natalie's hand. "At that time, when I first laid my eyes on you, I felt that you and Tobias were a great match. Now it seems that I was right all along."

After finishing her sentence, Cecilia felt that something was off. She seemed to have said something wrong.

She just wanted to praise Natalie, but she suddenly recalled the scene where she saw Natalie for the first time. She had curly, red hair and was wearing a horrendously garish outfit.

An awkward smile appeared on Cecilia's face.

While Natalie was beginning to feel delighted by what she had heard, she suddenly realized that something was off.

When she met Cecilia for the first time, her appearance was too horrible to recall. How could Cecilia feel that she was a good match for Tobias?

Natalie thought, "Rich people really do see things differently!"

What was the phrase? She had discerning eyes!

Tobias, who was sitting next to them, twitched the corners of his mouth.

An image of Natalie dressed up terribly conjured in his mind.

The three of them sat on the sofa and chatted for a long time. It was afternoon by the time they were nearing the end of their conversation.

Of course, Tobias didn't say anything at all. Cecilia and Natalie were the ones chatting with each other.

Although Cecilia and Natalie's statuses in society were vastly different, they seemed to be very congenial.

When he watched Natalie and Cecilia talking happily, Tobias felt his heart move ever so slightly.

In fact, as a wife, Natalie was perfect.

Soon, it was time for dinner. After dinner, Natalie went to take a shower. When Natalie left the room, Cecilia opened her mouth and asked, "Tobias, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

Tobias's eyes jerked slightly, but he said nothing.

"They were planning to manipulate you with cheap tricks? My son is not that incapable." Cecilia's tone was infused with confidence.

In fact, Cecilia had already assumed what had really happened when Natalie was telling her what had happened.

Tobias was the president of the YS Group. How could he ever need a woman to help him get out of trouble? He must have done everything on purpose. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

"Mother, don't let Natalie know about this." Tobias said in a low voice.

Cecilia smiled. "Of course, I understand where you are coming from. Otherwise, I wouldn't have cooperated with you."

Tobias nodded. "Natalie is too self-abased when it comes to our marriage. I want to increase her self-confidence."

Tobias had long discovered that under Natalie's cheerful appearance, she was actually very self- deprecating and sensitive.

Her previous home environment made her who she was. That kind of self- abasement had long been deeply-rooted in Natalie's heart.

Tobias knew that he had to influence Natalie to become someone more confident of herself.

Perhaps this incident wouldn't transform Natalie in an instant, but it would set her up to be more confident in the future.

Cecilia looked at Tobias thoughtfully and replied, "You really care about Natalie. I can finally be rest assured."

Tobias's expression was aloof as he gave no response.

Soon, Natalie came out of the shower. She seemed to be in high spirits today because her face was full of smiles.

When she exited the bathroom, a water droplet dropped down along Natalie's wet black hair towards her cheek and ended up at the bottom of Natalie's neck.

It just so happened that Tobias caught the moment when that happened.

All of a sudden, he felt parched.

Tobias' eyes gleamed with a layer of dim light as if he was being gaslighted.

It was not until a moment later that he was finally able to restrain his emotions and desires.

When she got in bed, Natalie had made her stance clear. She and Tobias were just a couple by agreement.

Although Tobias wanted to take Natalie for himself, he was gentlemanly enough. He would respect Natalie's wishes.

However, his urge to get a taste of this woman was intensifying by the second. He felt like his desires were getting more and more uncontrollable. The next day, Natalie woke up, and the sun was shining bright outside the window.

Natalie stretched, feeling content. Well, she was indeed living a happy life and today was a beautiful day.

Natalie jumped out of bed after that.

Tobias had already gone to the company. After having breakfast with Cecilia, Cecilia announced that she was going back to her home.

In fact, Natalie was somewhat reluctant to part with Cecilia, but she also knew that Cecilia was busy with her own business.

Anyway, she didn't need to attend a class that day. Natalie wanted to send Cecilia off, but Cecilia refused her good intentions.

"Natalie, I can go by myself. You don't have to see me off," Cecilia said with a smile.

Natalie had to give up the idea of sending Cecilia off. After Cecilia left, Natalie had a lot of time to kill again, so she went to her cloakroom to examine her clothes, shoes, and the other things in there.

That cloakroom was a beautiful dream which had come true for Natalie. Natalie inspected the clothes one by one and touched them with her hands.

She didn't even dare to think about such things before, but now, she was somehow able to own all of these unimaginable things.

Every time she came to this cloakroom, she felt that she was no longer the poor and frustrated Natalie. Instead, she had turned into a princess. Yes, it was as if Cinderella had turned into a princess. At that moment, a sudden ringing of the phone broke the silence.

Natalie suddenly froze when he saw the name of the caller.
