My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1007

Matthew pursed his lips.

As Caroline's explanation was logical and reasonable, he didn't want to make things difficult for her.

She was free to choose which company she wanted to work for.

"What's the matter?" Matthew asked.

Caroline hesitated for a moment.

"Get back to your work if you have nothing to say. No one in Perry Group is supposed to be free," Matthew said. There was weight behind his words.

Caroline felt a little uncomfortable.

She knew that Matthew was asking her to leave.

She had popular among other men since she was young. Even men who weren't romantically interested in her would enjoy her company.

After all, all men enjoyed talking to beautiful women.

However, it seemed that Matthew was not at all interested in talking to her.

Caroline said softly, "I understand, Mr. Perry. But I

do have something to tell you."

She paused for a moment to look at Matthew. She then continued, "Mr. Perry, I am a close friend of Selina's. I am happy for both of you, and I wish you both bliss and happiness. I'm also happy that she'd married such a good man."

Something crossed Matthew's mind.

Memories of what happened that night came flooding back.

That night, Selina had been heartbroken after running into Caroline. Matthew even remembered what Selina had said that night.

Matthew concealed his emotions immediately, his face a mask of indifference.

He continued to listen to Caroline.

Caroline continued, "I know that Selina had a relationship before this. They had been together since they were very young. Their relationship was very stable. Selina has also done a lot of crazy things for him. Although they were not meant to be together, Selina loved him so much, so much..." "What are you trying to say?" Matthew interrupted Caroline.

Caroline licked her dry lips and continued, "Mr. Perry, I thought Selina would break up with that man after getting into a relationship with you. But, I didn't expect..."

At this point, a sad expression appeared on her face as she said, "I really didn't expect Selina to do this!"

After saying that, she went forward and handed a photo to Matthew, "This photo was taken by chance when I was at the theme park a few days ago."

Matthew did not take the photo, so Caroline placed it on his desk instead.

Seeing the photo, Matthew's vision got slightly blurry.

In it was a couple hugging in a theme park.

Although the faces were not seen clearly, it was obvious that the couple was Selina and Dylan.

Even worse, the timestamp on the photo was the exact time that Selina had finally clarified the misunderstanding and proposed a divorce.

At that moment, it seemed that Matthew's eyes were frozen, leaving only a cold and empty stare.

Caroline observed Matthew's expression carefully as she continued, "Mr. Perry, as I failed to persuade Selina into giving up that relationship of hers, I was left with no choice but to approach you. It's not my wish to see Selina giving you up for that man. Please talk to Selina so that she could end that relationship. No matter how madly in love she is with him, she is now married to you. How could she be so indecent?"

Hearing the word "indecent", Matthew came back to his senses.

His gaze landed on Caroline.

Caroline's heart skipped a beat.

His stare was so cold that it pierced her instantly.

For some reason, Caroline started panicking.

Her lips started trembling and she was not able to say another word.

"She did not commit any indecent acts," Matthew said. He continued slowly, trying to make himself very clear, "Because we are divorced."

Caroline was stunned.

Matthew frowned and said, "You should get back to work now. As part of the company, you should be focusing on performing well, not discussing any personal affairs during working hours!"

Matthew said these words firmly.

Caroline bit her lip.

She bit her lip very hard.

There was only one reason.

Dylan Cowell.

It turned out that Selina had never been able to get over her first love.

To the point where Selina had gone on a date with Dylan even before the divorce proceedings had been completed.

The sarcastic smile on Matthew's face deepened.

It should not be a surprise. Selina had been together with Dylan for more than ten years. How could they have ended their relationship so easily?

How could he have been so confident that he could win over Selina's heart?

All of a sudden, Matthew was overwhelmed by exhaustion.

He was exhausted, truly exhausted.

He had devoted his entire heart to Selina, only to be hurt deeply in the end.

The feeling was horrible.

What had his persistence been for if he couldn't win over Selina's heart in the end?

He should have let go of her a long time ago!

That afternoon, Matthew returned to the Perry family home.

He ran into Prine at the entrance of the villa.

Prine was holding a watering can.

Seeing Matthew's return, Prine excitedly brought him to the vegetable farm.

She pointed at the freshly grown sprouts and said, "Mr. Perry, look! The vegetables are growing faster than the flowers ever did. The seeds have sprouted."

Matthew lowered his head and looked at the greens.

The sprouts were tiny and beautiful.

Matthew was momentarily stunned.
