My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1243

Selina finally removed her head from Lothar's shoulders.

"Thank you," Selina choked.

Lothar turned his head towards her, only to realize that his neck had completely stiffened.

He then looked at her, "Selina, can you tell me what is going on?"

Selina's lips twitched and she sniffled slightly.

"Let's discuss this later. I don't want to talk about it right now," Selina replied.

Upon hearing this, Lothar no longer had the heart to force Selina.

Changing the subject, he asked, "Why don't I show you the flowers my sister made for you?"

He wanted to divert Selina's attention to something else.

Selina nodded in reply.

Moments later, Lothar took out a flower from Yesseca's ward.

It was made from paper, but it appeared very lifelike, as if it was a real flower.

Even though Selina was not in a good mood, the flower still caught her eye.

She asked breathlessly, "Is this really made out of paper?"

Lothar nodded his head proudly, "Isn't my sister talented? She said that you're pretty, so a flower complements your beauty perfectly."

Selina forced out a smile at his comment.

"Your sister is too kind," Selina said as she carefully placed the paper flower into the purse she carried with her, "I will store it well."

Lothar then said, "Have you had your breakfast? Why don't we have breakfast together?"

Selina had no appetite for breakfast right then, but still she reluctantly agreed to his offer.

They went to the hospital's cafeteria together.

The food at the hospital cafeteria wasn't the best in the world.

However, as Selina did not have appetite at all, she couldn't care less if the food was tasty or not.

She just shoved spoonful after spoonful of oats into her mouth continuously.

Suddenly, Lothar called out to her, "Wait, Selina!"

She looked at Lothar, eyes dazed, her grasp tightly on the spoon.

He reached out and wiped away a piece of food that was stuck to the corner of her mouth with his hands, "You've got some food stains near your lips."

What he did just now reminded her of Matthew.

Whenever there are food stains on her lips, Matthew would reach over to help her wipe it off. Sometimes, he would even kiss her directly on the cheek to remove the food stain.

Waves of painful memories rushed through Selina's mind.

Still gripping tightly onto her spoon, tears quickly trailed down her face.

Tears as big as pearls fell into the bowl of oats.

Selina's reaction startled Lothar as he thought his sudden action had upset her. He panicked and pleaded, "Selina, I didn't do it on purpose. Please don't cry. I won't do it ever again."

Sobbing while shaking her head, she replied in a sorrowful voice, "It has nothing to do with you."

It took a long time for her to calm down and stopped crying.

She then stared at Lothar and confessed, "Lothar, he's married."

Lothar was shocked by her words.

He did not understand what she meant.

"Matthew is married. I told you last night that he was hugging a woman. Well, that woman is his wife."

Lothar was shocked by Selina's words.

"How is that possible?"

A mocking smile crossed Selina's face, as she responded to his outburst, "Right, it is impossible. I thought so too. If he hadn't personally told me this, I wouldn't have believed that this woman had already been married to him years ago."

Lothar felt his head ringing as he tried to make sense of the words Selina just said.

His instincts told him that Matthew was not such a person.

He looked like a proper gentleman, not a man who would fool around when he already had a wife.

He thus carefully probed her, "Selina, are you sure that's the truth?"

This question provoked Selina.

She stood up from her seat hard. Her rough action caused her chair to scratch along the cafeteria floor, a loud screech echoed through the otherwise quiet cafeteria."You think I'm lying to you, don't you? Up until this point, you still think I'm just joking!" Selina raised her voice.

Her angry expression made Lothar anxious.

He stood up from his seat as well and said, "That's not what I meant. I believe you!"

Seconds later, complicated emotions rose in her heart and she snapped at him, "What are you doing here, Matthew? Shouldn't you be with your wife at this time? Why are you even here?"

Matthew simply pressed his lips together and remained silent.

From Lothar's perspective, Matthew's silence was a tacit admission of guilt.

His emotions flared up upon this thought.

It turns out that this man had really lied to Selina.

Everything Selina said was true!

He really did had a wife, and yet tricked Selina into a marriage and divorce. And now he was here pestering her.

He was fooling around with the woman's heart!

Lothar stood up in an instant.

Matthew's aura was clearly more prominent than Lothar's.

However, Lothar was not the least bit afraid, "I thought you were a chivalrous man at first but you were just an imposter all along. Selina's my friend, and I will definitely not allow you to hurt my friend!"

When Selina heard this, a surge of warmth overwhelmed her heart.

She understood just how insignificant he was in front of Matthew.

Lothar was definitely aware of this as well.

Nevertheless, Lothar still rushed to protect her and spoke against Matthew for her.

In her heart, she knew that he was a true and honest friend to her.

Matthew ignored Lothar's cries.

His gaze flickered past him, and instead focused onto Selina.

His voice was low and hollow as he said, "Selina, let's have a chat."

Both of his eyes were severely bloodshot.

"We don't have anything to talk about. Matthew, I've already told you. I feel nauseous whenever I lay eyes on you," Selina's voice was filled with rage and hatred, yet it held a tinge of sorrow as well.

"Things are not what you think they are."

She merely let out a chilling smile. It was a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"Things are not the way I think they are? That woman has been married to you for ages! She's your wife! You told me this yourself!"
