My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 531

"You bet. Mr. Whitlock had just publicly displayed his affection towards you." Linda grinned.

Natalie drew in a sharp breath.

Were they looking at her so strangely because she held hands with Tobias that morning?

"Natalie, have you decided to go public with your relationship with Mr. Whitlock?" Linda asked.

Natalie's hand paused mid-air. The spoon caught between her fingers. "Actually, I don't know."

In fact, her thoughts were still in a mess.

"What do you think of Mr. Whitlock?" Linda asked again.

Natalie hesitated, her cheeks painted a deep, fiery red.

What did she think of him?

Undeniably, she felt attracted to Tobias. However, everything between them was moving too fast to seem real. So, she had doubts about their relationship.

First, Tobias claimed to have fallen in love with her at the annual meeting. Then, he began making advances at her. Just a day ago, he confessed his feelings for her, and now, he even had the intention to marry her and make her Hayden's stepmom.

The problem is, they only knew each other for a short period.

Their relationship was progressing too fast, to the point where Natalie started to have doubts.

But she still couldn't figure out what was amiss.

Besides, she could not let go of the fact that Hayden's mother was still out there somewhere -the woman that Tobias couldn't forget.

Could she really replace her?

She did not have the confidence to at all.

That was why her thoughts were still a mess.

Tobias's threat was only part of the reason she agreed to date him. The other reason she agreed was because she indeed genuinely liked him.

"I don't know. My mind's a mess now, so my answer to your questions is I don't know," she mumbled with her mouth full of food.

"Well, It doesn't matter. Mr. Whitlock is gorgeous, and he is loaded. I bet there are many girls who want to be with him. Don't let go of him, Natalie. He's a catch," Linda winked.

Natalie bobbed her head in agreement.

Tobias was indeed rich and handsome. Other than having a son, she couldn't find a single flaw in him at all.

Besides, it was probably time for her to find love.

She lowered her gaze as she thought about that.

If Tobias genuinely loved her and treated her well, she might as well give him a chance.

Most importantly, he was a good person, and a man like him was hard to find.

Meanwhile, in the YS Group president's office.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

A man in a black suit strode into the office.

"Mr. Whitlock," he greeted respectfully.

Tobias glanced up at the man with a slight frown. "How's the investigation going?"

The man hesitated before he replied, "Mr. Whitlock, Madison insisted that Madam's babysitter gave the baby to her, and she denied any involvement in this matter."

Tobias remained silent.

"Do you think she was lying?" he asked after a while.

"I don't think so, Mr. Whitlock. I've tried different methods on her. Normal people like her wouldn't be able to take it. She was definitely telling the truth." The man sounded confident.

He held his breath as he waited for Tobias's response.

Tapping his finger on the desk, Tobias bit his lip and knitted his brows. He seemed to be lost in thought.

The man stood aside and didn't dare to utter a word.

Deafening silence filled the entire office, save for the sound of Tobias tapping his fingers on the desk.

After a long while, Tobias finally said, "Bring that babysitter over."

If Madison was not lying, then it must be the babysitter.

"Yes, Mr. Whitlock." The man hurriedly stepped out of the office.

When it was about time for Natalie to get off work, Lisa barged into her department, looking for her.

"Hey, Natalie," Lisa said with a smile. "Mr. Whitlock wants to see you."

It had been an hour since Natalie left.

A woman was led into Tobias's office.

The woman looked relatively old, and she was wearing a common outfit one would expect to see on a middle-aged woman.

Tobias invited her to sit on the sofa.

After a short conversation with Tobias, she realized who he was.

Her eyes widened in shock.

It turned out that the man sitting across her was Cecilia's son.

No wonder he had such attractive facial features. He had indeed inherited them from Cecilia.

"I invited you here today because I would like to know more about the girl my mother handed to you years ago. Do you have any idea where she is now?" Tobias's tone was polite but assertive.

The babysitter's heart skipped a beat.

Tobias had been very polite to her since the very second she stepped into the office.

But she had been through a lot too.

And she could see through the sharpness hidden underneath.

She knew very well what would happen to her if she didn't tell him the whole truth.

The lady cleared her throat and swallowed.

That man was dead anyway, so it would be safe for her to tell Tobias the truth.

After dinner, Natalie brought Hayden out for a walk.

"Hayden, come with me and tell me what you want to eat today. I promise I'll fulfill your wish." She felt unusually generous that night.

His eyes lit up at the mention of food. "Really?"

"Really." She flashed him a smug grin. "I am very rich today."

"I want to eat the hamburgers that come with the Ultraman toys." He blinked excitedly.

"Sure, you can eat all the hamburgers you want!" She waved her hand and beckoned. "Let's go!"

It felt freaking awesome to be rich!
