My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 530

Natalie's breathing hitched a little.

What would he do?

Did it mean if she took her word back, Tobias would kill her?

"You're not thinking about killing me and getting rid of my body, are you?" Her voice wavered.

His lips curled into a sly grin. "No. I'll torture you in bed over and over again."

Natalie's eyes widened and her lips parted in disbelief.

There was no turning back now.

The two of them finally arrived at the Whitlock family's villa.

"Mr. Whitlock, I'm going to bed." She hurriedly bid Tobias goodnight, clearly wishing to leave.

All the events that played out through the day were too overwhelming. She needed some time alone to process everything.

As she spun around and strode towards her room, Tobias grabbed her arm and yanked her towards him. Her entire body jerked with the sudden tug.

"Natalie, please call me Tobias. Mr. Whitlock sounds too formal."

Her heart skipped a beat. "But you're my boss."

"And your future husband," he whispered huskily as his dark eyes stared right into her soul.

Her mind turned into a buzzing mess of static.

Husband...

Was he really taking their relationship that seriously?

"But I am really not used to calling you that, Mr. Whitlock," she replied weakly after pausing for a moment.

Tobias was her superior, after all. She felt uncomfortable calling him by his first name. It felt too... intimate.

Tobias playfully patted her face and said, "You'll slowly get used to it."

She returned a stiff smile. "Alright."

"By the way," he added, "you'll have to slowly get used to sleeping with me too."

Heat immediately rushed to her cheeks.

She sped off into her bedroom, her face scarlet red.

Natalie had initially planned to think everything

through calmly when she was alone.

However, she could not calm herself down no matter how hard she tried.

Her thoughts were all in a muddle, and she was unable to get her head together.

In the end, she gave up and went to bed.

It didn't take long before she fell into a deep slumber.

The next morning, Natalie joined Tobias and Hayden for breakfast. She was flattered to receive such special treatment from him all of a sudden.

Tobias was extremely caring towards her.

Not only did he help spread the jam on her toast, but he also prepared sunny-side-ups for her, which was sweet.

Even Hayden couldn't help noticing the change in Tobias's attitude.

He scrunched his little nose and asked, "Daddy, why are you being so nice to Natalie today? I never see you helping her spread jam on her toast."

Tobias gave him a cool glance and replied, "She's my woman now, so of course, I have to treat her well."

Natalie almost choked on her toast.

She couldn't believe Tobias would tell Hayden that. How did dare he tell him that she was his

"woman"?

Hayden's eyes widened, and he turned to look at her. "Are you going to be my stepmother, Natalie?"

His round eyes blinked rapidly as he waited for her answer.

Staring into Hayden's innocent eyes, she was suddenly at a loss for words. She didn't know what to say to him.

Instead of answering his question, she stuffed a piece of toast into his mouth. "Eat your toast."

Hayden kept pestering her that entire morning, asking her whether she was going to be his stepmother.

When Natalie left for work, she was finally able to free herself from Hayden's interrogation. She breathed a sigh of relief as she entered the car.

Tobias drove them straight to the YS group.

She thought about the breakfast incident and couldn't help but complain, "Mr. Whitlock, you shouldn't have told Hayden that."

She only agreed to date him because she was forced to do that the night before. She did not think that Tobias would so shamelessly tell Hayden that she was his woman the next morning.

"I'm a knucklehead, Natalie. I shouldn't have spoken to you like that yesterday," she apologized.

Natalie felt guilty too and hasted. "It's my fault, Merry. You did nothing wrong."

"No, no, no, it's my fault, Natalie. I didn't know that your boyfriend is—" She let out a dry laugh. "Look at me, I'm such a big knucklehead that I even tried to introduce my nephew to you. He's unworthy of you. He doesn't even deserve to be your servant."

That could not be true.

Natalie blushed at Merry's words.

In fact, Jadiel was a tall and attractive man. Besides, he was a Chaleston University graduate. He deserved someone better than her.

"I always knew you are someone unique and outstanding from the beginning, Natalie. I haven't yet met another girl like you in the entire YS Group!" Merry fawned over her.

Their conversation grew increasingly awkward. Eventually, Natalie made up an excuse to return to her office.

Lisa came to visit her that afternoon.

She shot her a suggestive grin and teased. "It seems that my speculations are true, Natalie." "What speculation?" Natalie stared at her with

bafflement.

"Did you get it on with him in his office yesterday?" Lisa asked under her breath as she leaned closer towards Natalie.

Natalie's entire body went rigid.

Her cheeks burned. "Lisa! What are you talking about?"

"Don't lie to me." Lisa grinned playfully. "You must have satisfied Mr. Whitlock very well last night. That's why he immediately affirmed your status as his girlfriend this morning."

Natalie was speechless, shaking her head grudgingly.

Lisa had an exceptional imagination —it was even better than her own!

"Please stop making fun of me, Lisa."

Lisa's face immediately turned serious. "I've worked alongside Mr. Whitlock as his secretary for quite some time. He's a good man, Natalie. You should never let him go.”

Natalie did not have lunch with Tobias that day as he had an appointment with a few executives to discuss the company's matters that afternoon.

As usual, she had lunch with Linda in the restaurant.

While she was heading towards their table, she felt a dozen pairs of eyes staring at her and shuddered a little in discomfort.

"Linda, is there something weird about me?" She whispered worriedly as she pulled out a chair and sat down.
