My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 428

His future with Natalie.

Could they still have a chance to be together in the future?

Could they even have a future?

He couldn't.

Suddenly, he felt a bitter feeling in his heart.

He looked into the distance.

Maybe he just needed to sober up a little.

Tobias found Cecilia.

"Mother, I'll agree to the engagement with Lucy." Tobias said.

He said it in such a low voice that no one could sense any emotion in it.

It was just like his face, there was no expression at all.

Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief.

Did Tobias finally think it through?

Or was he a little tempted by Lucy?

When Cecilia was looking through the list of fiancees for Tobias, she deliberately chose the type that was closest to Natalie.

She was easy-going and simple, with a lovely appearance too.

Men’s love for women was mostly similar. Cecilia hoped that Tobias would focus on other women as soon as possible.

"Now tell me where Natalie is." Tobias added.

Cecilia frowned.

It seemed like she was overthinking.

The reason Tobias agreed to marry Lucy was to find out about Natalie.

He wanted to know where Natalie was.

But he could not do anything to his own mother, so he could only compromise.

"Not yet. I need to be assured until you and Lucy are engaged." Cecilia stared at Tobias.

Engagement?

Tobias lost his focus for a moment.

He thought that he would marry Natalie.

Tobias' eyes turned stone cold.

"Okay." Tobias said after a long while.

Before their engagement, Tobias made a request to Cecilia.

He wanted to meet Lucy.

Of course, Cecilia was more than happy about the request.

She hoped that Tobias and Lucy could meet a few more times and have a good relationship.

Tobias and Lucy met at a restaurant that afternoon.

Cecilia did not go and it was what Tobias requested too.

Lucy's heart was pounding.

The crystal lamp on top shone on him and it looked like a halo on his head. He looked like a man in a painting. She thought that it was unbelievable and surreal.

Lucy was not a little girl anymore.

She was cute and lovely with a good background. She had been pursued by boys ever since she was young.

Before Tobias, the only time she ever blushed with a man around was when she was still a junior in school.

He was too handsome and Lucy liked him a lot.

"Tobias, we meet again." Lucy smiled at Tobias.

When she smiled, he could see her white teeth.

Lucy looked adorable.

Tobias was a little dazed.

Natalie was in his mind once again.

When Natalie smiled, she looked the same. She would reveal her white teeth too.

After a while, Tobias came to his senses.

Her name was Lucy and she was not Natalie.

No woman could ever replace Natalie.

"I'm here to talk about our engagement." Tobias restrained the emotions on his face.

Lucy let out a sigh of relief.

The engagement between Tobias and Lucy would be held by the end of the month.

Cecilia felt that it was too hasty.

But Lucy insisted on it, so Cecilia could only compromise.

Lucy smiled and told Cecilia that Tobias liked her very much.

She heaved a sigh of relief.

She did not doubt what Lucy said. She thought that Tobias might have some feelings for her.

After all, Lucy was cute and beautiful.

After walking out of the Whitlock family's residence, Lucy felt a little lost.

In fact, she lied to Cecilia and she did not see any affections in Tobias' eyes at all.

She did not know how to describe Tobias.

He looked like a gentleman, but he was not a gentleman too.

For example, he only had an engagement with her to use her, which was obviously not something a gentleman would do.

But he told her so frankly and also about the consequences too. With that, he did act like a gentleman.

Lucy thought that it was strange, she really couldn't understand him.

However, she was very willing to take a gamble.

She would bet on whether she could sleep

with Tobias.

Time passed slowly.

The day of Natalie giving birth was closing in too.

She watched the news.

Because it was the first time she was going to give birth, Natalie was feeling tensed.

When she had nothing to do, she would search the internet to read about other people's experience in giving birth.

The more she read and the more she knew, the more it became terrifying for her.

Her water bag bursted.

When the water bag burst, it meant she was due for delivery. Its content would enter the mother's blood circulation which might cause severe damage to the lungs, problem with blood pressure and many other organ failures. It was a disease that had a low chance of occurrence but with an extremely high death rate. The death rate was over 80%.
