My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1710

Preslie shook her head, "I'm not sad. It's just that what you asked me just now reminded me of what happened. It's not a big deal for me to tell you this, and it's true that the human heart is frightening. People can be two-faced but they'll smile at you and stab you in the back."

Yesseca clenched her fists. "I understand."

Although Yesseca didn't go to work, she stayed at the mall until Kylin came to pick her up.

Yesseca said she wanted to go to the Perry family home.

Kylin smiled and said, "What a coincidence. My cousin was also talking about how it's been so long since she's seen you and wants to meet up as well."

Yesseca didn't say anything.

After arriving at the Perry family's home, Selina held Yesseca's hand and asked about how she was faring.

Normally, Yesseca would feel touched, but this time, she felt empty.

She even wondered if Selina was faking her smile.

As Preslie said, people could be two- faced creatures.

Yesseca felt her hair stand on end.

While eating, Yesseca thought of the bottle in her shirt pocket.

All of a sudden, her heart began to pound.

It would be easy for her to pour the contents into Selina's water.

However, she hesitated.

If Selina really did consume the content of the bottle, she would then lose her heart, and as a result, lose her life.

Thinking about how the contents of the bottle could kill Selina, Yesseca felt herself shrinking.

But soon, Essie's words rang again in her ears.

Selina was only going to return her heart to Lothar.

It was originally Lothar's heart to begin with, so she was only going to give it to him.

Why should she hesitate?

Just like that, Yesseca felt torn. She could not make a decision.

When Yesseca was about to leave, Matthew came back.

Matthew took the opportunity to ask Yesseca while Kylin and Selina weren't paying attention. "Yesseca, are you okay?"

Yesseca nodded.

"It must have been Essie who told you those things, am I right?" asked Matthew. "Can you tell me where she is?"

He had been looking for Essie for a long time without any luck.

Essie was like a ghost, forever without a trace.

Although he couldn't find Essie, Matthew was still deeply concerned.

He was worried that Essie would do something.

He had to find her as soon as possible.

He wasn't going to ask Yesseca because he knew he'd put Yesseca in a difficult position.

However, he decided he would now start with her.

Yesseca looked up at Matthew.

Matthew saw the caution in her eyes.

"Yesseca," Matthew said, "I don't intend to do anything to Essie if I find her. I just want to ask what her goal is face to face. Lothar told us not to tell you about this matter, yet she has spilled everything to you, and she even spun lies in her story. I'm just worried for you, that's why I'm looking for her."

Yesseca kept her mouth tightly shut.

While she was back at the mountaintop, Essie told her that what Matthew said was false, and that he wasn't telling the full truth.

But now, Matthew was the one telling her that Essie was the liar, and that she was the one who had added falsehoods into her story.

Who was telling the truth?

Yesseca's mind was in a mess.

She wanted to believe in Matthew, but at the same time, she felt like Essie had no reason to lie to her.

To make matters worse, Matthew had a record of lying to her before.

Matthew stared at Yesseca. "Yesseca, tell me, where did you see Essie?"

Yesseca took a deep breath.

She seemed to have made up her mind. "I don't know."

Yesseca stopped breathing.

After a while, she nodded. "Okay, I'll try my best."

Just as she was about to open the door again, Kylin suddenly grabbed her hand. Yesseca was stunned as she turned to look at Kylin.

Kylin leaned towards her. "Could you try now?"

His eyes were determined and gentle.

Thump, thump, thump. Yesseca's heart pounded heavily.

She subconsciously wanted to push Kylin away, but reason told her that she could not.

When she'd agreed to be with Kylin, she would have to fulfill the responsibility of a girlfriend.

And kissing was obviously one of many responsibilities.

Yesseca closed her eyes.

Kylin was so kind to her, so it was reasonable for her to let him kiss her.

As Kylin slowly approached, Yesseca became more and more nervous. Just as Kylin's lips were about to touch hers, Yesseca suddenly pushed him away.

She gasped for air.

Just as Kylin was about to touch her mouth, a picture flashed through her mind.

The image of Tremaine kissing her.

No, it was not a kiss, it was a bite.

The image of a man biting down on her lips.

He was like a ferocious beast, ready to swallow her whole.

Fear flashed across Yesseca's eyes.

And when Kylin saw Yesseca reacting the way she did, he immediately took a step back. There was restraint in his eyes. "I'm sorry I scared you."

Although he was planning to take it slow with Yesseca, the progress was moving along a little too slow, and that left him confused. He felt like Yesseca was becoming more of a friend rather than a girlfriend. He wanted to move forward.

But unexpectedly...

"I'm sorry, Yesseca. I was too abrupt."
