My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 526

All of Natalie's senses were filled with Tobias. She could feel his body heat and could smell the fragrant scent coming off him.

Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it was going to skyrocket.

All of a sudden, the man's arms wrapped across her waist.

Natalie's whole body stiffened almost as if her blood was flowing backwards.

After a while, she wriggled awkwardly, trying to pry the hand from her waist.

"Be good, don't move." The man's hoarse voice sounded beside her ear.

The voice seemed to be suppressing something.

Natalie dared not move anymore.

The hand on her waist felt like a soldering iron, searing her skin.

She tried hard to divert her attention from the hand hugging her waist.

She counted sheep, forcing herself to sleep.

She counted and counted until sleepiness overtook her. Her eyelids could not hold on any

longer and she gradually dozed off.

That night, Natalie had a chaotic dream.

It was the kind of dream that resembled the past and the present.

In her dream, she seemed to have known Tobias in her previous life. The two of them had gone through a lot together.

The next day, when she woke up, she could not seem to remember anything from the dream.

The hand on her waist was still there; Tobias had really kept his promise.

He did not do anything unruly to her.

Natalie did not know whether or not Tobias had woken up. She could only hear his shallow breathing and the burning iron of arms behind her.

The area behind her bum felt a little hot, but she did not dare to move.

What happened next made Natalie regret.

She should have left the bed as soon as she woke up.

Because Hayden had woken up.

His high fever receded overnight, and the child had returned to his usual energetic self.

As soon as he woke up, his shouts filled the entire ward, "Natalie, Dad, you've slept together, you've

finally slept together!"

Natalie was frightened out of her wits.

Not caring about anything else, she jumped out of bed.

Without Natalie blocking his eyesight, Hayden could clearly see Tobias.

He giggled and said, "Dad, your pants are going to burst."

Tobias continued lying in bed quietly.

Natalie shrank to a corner, wishing that she could dig a hole and bury herself in it.

They say that the babbling of children knows no boundaries, but it was times like these that embarrassed adults the most.

For the whole morning, Hayden was yelling about this and prancing around energetically.

Natalie suspected that the whole hospital knew that she had slept with Tobias.

Obviously, they were innocent. Nothing had happened.

Fortunately, the doctor came in the morning and announced that Hayden could be discharged from the hospital.

However, when the doctor was about to leave,

Hayden tugged on his sleeves. With innocent, bright eyes, he asked, "Mr. Doctor, Natalie slept with my father last night. When women and men sleep together on TV, they get married. Are Natalie and my father going to get married?"

The doctor's expression turned awkward immediately, followed by silence.

He hemmed and hawed, "Kid, this is not within my medical scope."

With that, he hurried away.

The discharge procedures were done in the morning. Before they left, Natalie went to the hospital's restroom and overheard a conversation.

"Do you know that beautiful child that was sent over yesterday, the one with the handsome and virtuous- looking father? Do you know what the father did in the ward last night?"

"I don't know. What happened?"

"He slept with the nanny last night. This morning, the kid was shouting all about how his father had slept with his nanny."

"No way. A man like that could get any woman he wants. Was he so horny that he had to sleep with his nanny in the ward?"

"That nanny looked rather decent, and not like a nanny at all. If she hadn't told me, I would have thought that she was his wife."

Natalie once again took a deep breath and looked up-

Then, she blurted out, "Mr. Whitlock, is there a woman in your heart that you can't forget?"

After the words escaped her lips, she was confused as to why she would ask such a question.

The smile on Tobias's face froze.

He looked at Natalie, and a strange glint flashed across his discerning eyes.

Why would Natalie ask such a question?

Did she remember something?

He studied Natalie, but she did not look as if she had figured anything out.

"Yes, there is." Tobias's reply came a moment later.

At once, Natalie felt her soaring heart plummet to the pits of her stomach, falling and falling, making her sick.

"Do you love her very much?" she asked.

"I love her to the bones."

"Oh," Natalie muttered.

There was a feeling of immense chagrin in her voice.

Tobias wanted to add something, but the lights turned green.

They drove forward.

After arriving at the office, Natalie bumped into Merry in the washroom.

Merry seemed to ignore Natalie and walked straight past her.

Natalie grabbed her and asked, "Merry, what's wrong?"

Merry stopped and said, "Natalie, you're so deceptive. Are you really asking me what's wrong?"

Natalie's heart skipped a beat.

Was it because of what happened with Jadiel?

Natalie licked her dry lips, at a loss for how to explain it to her.

Merry initially did not want to talk about it, but when Natalie asked her, she could not help but complain, "Natalie, you obviously have a boyfriend, but you lied to me and told me that he's your father. How can you do this? What kind of a person says that their boyfriend is their father?"
