My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 170

Natalie told Selina that she would pass on this store.

Selina rolled her eyes but unexpectedly, she didn't object.

After Selina entered, Tobias waited near the entrance. Natalie felt weird standing directly at the entrance as she didn't want to seem like she was purposely avoiding Tobias, thus she walked over to him in the end.

However, as soon as she walked over, she regretted it.

For some reason, the atmosphere between them was exceedingly awkward.

She didn't know what was going on. Nothing embarrassing had happened between them, but why did she feel so awkward?

"Hey, thank you for buying me a phone," Natalie spoke first to break the silence.

"It's what I should, you don't have to thank me." Tobias cast his deep eyes on Natalie's face. "Natalie, you're becoming more unlike yourself."

Natalie was stunned, and a trace of doubt flashed across her eyes.

Tobias fixed his gaze on Natalie. "You are getting more and more restrained in front of me. You weren't like this before."

Natalie's breath suddenly halted. She had indeed changed. She was no longer the same person she used to be.

In the beginning, she could sing madly in front of Tobias with a fake wig on, and she wasn't afraid of anything. But now, she felt like everything was holding her back.

Was it because she started to care about this man?

Any woman in the world would behave in the same way. When they fall for a man, they would become more and more restrained. Even just standing in front of him made her feel awkward and uneasy.

Seeing Natalie's gaze shift from side to side, Tobias' eyes became deeper.

He parted his lips and said in a low voice. "Natalie, I'm not a beast. I won't eat you."

Natalie's eyelashes fluttered slightly.

A moment later, she raised her eyes. Yes, Tobias was not a beast. What was there to be afraid of?

What's more, she had already been devoured by this man once before, thus there was nothing to be afraid of.

"I am not afraid. You are not a beast!" She smiled brightly at Tobias.

Seeing Natalie's sunlit smile, Tobias' lips curved slightly.

"Why don't you go in? Don't you need anything?"

Tobias was referring to the lingerie store.

Natalie smiled dryly, "No, no."

Meanwhile, Selina was done. She gestured for

Tobias to come over to pay the bill.

Tobias gave the card to Natalie, "It's a bit awkward for me to go in."

Natalie naturally understood and took the card from Tobias.

When she took the card, her palm brushed against Tobias, and it felt as if a current passed through from his hand to her body.

Natalie immediately turned around and walked into the lingerie store.

Her face was fully red.

God, she had just said that she wasn't afraid. Yet here she was, blushing at the mere brush of their palms.

Natalie was really speechless at herself.

"Natalie, you are so disappointing. You have lived with this man for so long, and you even had s*x with him. Yet all it takes for you to blush is his hand brushing up against yours," she thought.

What a coward!

After swiping the card, Selina smiled at Natalie mysteriously, "Natalie, I also bought you a set of pajamas. It's my gift to you so you must wear it tonight."

Natalie didn't give it much thought. She thought that it was just a set of pajamas, but she had no idea that they weren't just ordinary pajamas.

With all the shopping done, it was already around dinner time. Selina proposed that they dine outside.

Tobias asked for Natalie's opinion again.

While eating, she also praised Natalie. "Natalie, this place was a good choice. The food is tasty!"

Hearing Selina's praise, Natalie felt a huge burden lift off her shoulders. She finally relaxed and started to enjoy the food heartily.

Natalie loved the spaghetti Aglio olio from that restaurant.

The pasta was perfectly al dente, and the buttery garlic sauce melted on her tongue.

Natalie was blowing on her pasta to cool it down. Although it only took her a few seconds, it felt like an eternity to her. She stared at the pasta, gulping, and looked really starved.

Her greedy look was clearly seen by Tobias.

Tobias slightly raised the corner of his mouth.

He picked up a spoonful of pasta from his plate and put it down into hers.

Natalie was a little taken aback.

"Take it and I'll help you cool down the food," Tobias' deep eyes fell on Natalie's face.

She blushed.

She originally wanted to refuse, but she couldn't say a word when she saw Tobias' persistent gaze.

In the end, Natalie silently munched on the spoonful of pasta that Tobias had given her.

As she finished it, Tobias would order another plate for her.

Natalie was very satisfied with her meal.

She had a total of three plates of pasta!

When her plate was emptied, Tobias asked the waiter for another serving. But Natalie quickly declined whilst rubbing her stomach, saying that she was satisfied.

Seeing that Natalie was rubbing her bulging belly, a smile appeared in Tobias' eyes. He looked genuinely happy.

When Selina saw this scene, she suddenly realized why Tobias liked Natalie.
