My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 558

"Remington got himself injured because he could not get over his own obsession. He brought that upon himself. When he found out that you did not reciprocate his feelings, he went to the Amazon Jungle impulsively. He can't force you to love him, Natalie. He is an adult, and he should be responsible for his own behavior. You don't have to feel guilty about it."

Natalie fidgeted with the fork in her hands as she clenched her teeth even harder.

After a while, she lifted her chin at Tobias. "Mr. Whitlock, how do you know that I don't have any feelings for Remington?"

She was almost certain that she had feelings for Remington before she lost her memory. Otherwise, why would they go meet his grandfather together?

Although he had explained that she was only pretending to be his girlfriend when they visited his grandfather, she was still unconvinced.

How could she explain her lost virginity then?

She strongly believed that Remington was the first man that she had slept with.

Therefore, she must have had romantic feelings for him before she lost her memory.

She flinched in startlement when she felt someone suddenly gripping her hand.

Her heart almost stopped.

Tobias's strong gaze drifted to Natalie's face, and their eyes locked. "Natalie, if you really love him, then you would never agree to sleep with me that night. You are not the type of girl who sleeps around."

Natalie knitted her eyebrows, "Maybe I am."

"Don't lie to me, Natalie, and don't lie to yourself."

She felt as if her heart was being stabbed.

It hurt like crazy.

She summoned her courage to look at Tobias straight in the eye. "You are wrong about me, Mr. Whitlock. To sleep with a handsome and rich man like you is only something for me to show off. It doesn't mean that I have feelings for you."

Tobias's grip on her loosened.

He stared at her with a slightly hurt expression in his eyes, his lips parting in surprise.

He couldn't believe what Natalie had just said.

Even if she had hurt her head and lost her memory, her personality wouldn't have changed so drastically.

Tobias knew she was trying to brush him off and reject him.

"Natalie, you're lying." He stated faintly.

Natalie raised her chin and retorted, "I'm not."

Tobias sighed, shifting his gaze to stare at the ceiling for a silent moment.

Then, he slowly lowered his head and turned to look at Natalie, his dark eyes boring into her soul.

His eyes were as deep as the sea, and she could see countless emotions surging in them wildly. The way he stared was like he only had eyes for her, as if she was the only person left in the world.

Natalie wrenched her eyes away from him, looking into her lap.

Tobias's piercing gaze was too much for her to bear.

Her eyelids fluttered as she held back her tears.

Tobias finally spoke, "Think about it again, Natalie. I'll give you time."

He cursed internally as he realized that this was another failed conversation - Natalie still would not go back with him.

Hiding his frustration, he said, "I will see you when you finally figure it out."

Natalie bit down on her lip.

She was about to tell him that she would never figure it out.

But when she recalled the way that he stared at her -the way those gorgeous eyes were fully focused on her and her alone-she struggled to speak.

As Tobias turned to leave, he said to her, "You don't have any feelings for Remington, Natalie. Don't think with your guilt, but with your heart."

"How could you be so sure that I have no feelings for him?" She blurted.

The way Tobias was so incredibly certain with his words made her heart stir.

"Because I am excellent, and you will never fall in love with other men when I'm around."

Natalie was taken aback.

"Okay."

"My comrade has a granddaughter, who is only a few years younger than you. She is absolutely gorgeous, and did I mention that she has an incredible backside? She is your ideal match. You'd better come back soon and marry her."

Tobias swallowed, a little exasperated.

That was the important matter that Peter called to tell him about?

"No, thanks," he rejected the offer without even thinking about it.

"Why not?" Peter raised his voice. "Look at you, still single at this old age. And don't get me started on Selina. Are the two of you trying to piss me off? What did I do to be punished by two grandchildren who can't marry themselves off?"

Tobias sighed.

"I am already in love with a girl, Grandpa. I won't see anyone else." His eyes glinting as he spoke.

Peter was silent for a while.

"Who is it?"

"You've seen her before."

"Tobias! Do you mean your brother's girl? Are the two of you done fooling around?" Peter raised his voice, displeased.

"She is always been mine from the very beginning. She never belonged to Remington."

On the other end, Peter huffed in anger, his breathing even heavier.

"Tobias, you and your brother are not on good terms to begin with. I don't want to see you two fighting over a girl. You'd better think things through!" Peter barked his last words, then hung up abruptly.

"Come pour me a cup of coffee!" The old man boomed, clutching his chest.

Immediately, Mr. Lee poured a cup of black coffee and served it to Peter. His face remained expressionless.

Peter took a sip of the coffee, finally calming down a little. He felt his blood pressure always soared whenever he talked to Tobias, and shook his head.

Then, his right eyelid suddenly twitched.
