My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 625

Natalie pointed at Sebastian. "Sebastian, I'm really happy, you know that? I'm elated!"

Natalie kept stressing that she was happy, with her eyes and lips curling into half- moons. But Sebastian had a feeling that Natalie felt miserable.

He saw the unmistakable glint of heartbreak in her eyes.

"Natalie, don't force yourself," Sebastian said in a low voice.

His words seemed to enrage her.

She immediately became upset.

However, her eyes curved up even more. "Who told you that I'm not happy? I'm so obviously elated, can't you tell?"

A black Bentley sped by.

Tobias was sitting in the backseat.

During this period of time, he chose not to drive himself, but let the driver drive him instead.

He had been so absent-minded recently that he feared that accidents might happen if he were to take the wheel.

He looked out the window.

All of a sudden, his dark eyes fixated on something.

In the distance, he saw a slender figure sitting at an open- air stall. Although he couldn't see her face, he knew who it was in a second.

Tobias's heart fiercely skipped a beat.

His breathing suddenly quickened without reason.

"Stop the car," Tobias gave a subconscious order.

The driver didn't understand why, but he quickly stopped.

Tobias's brooding gaze was locked on the figure from beginning to end.

It hadn't been long since they'd last seen each other, but it felt like a lifetime ago.

His last memory of Natalie was the moment she stabbed the dagger into her body.

Blood spurted everywhere.

At that very moment, his obsession and possessiveness over her seemed to disappear completely.

From that moment on, he decided to set her free.

Now, he could catch Natalie laughing widely even

from afar.

She was smiling and laughing with the man opposite her.

Tobias had seen that man twice.

Once was when he'd taken a stroll with Natalie. He'd put his coat around her shoulders.

The second time was when he was having a meal with Natalie.

Veins suddenly popped out on Tobias' hand.

He subconsciously clenched his fists.

So Natalie was having such a good time.

She was elated and carefree after leaving him.

She could have dinner and drinks with another man so happily, laughing without a care in the world.

Tobias closed his eyes, his thick eyelashes casting faint shadows on his face.

His pale face was expressionless, but a tinge of sorrow flashed in his eyes.

"Natalie." A name suddenly came out of his thin lips.

It was like a gentle sigh, filled with gentleness and hidden regret as well as helplessness.

It was good that she was doing well.

All other things did not matter, as long as she was

fine.

"Let's go." After a while, Tobias ordered in a low voice.

The black Bentley sped away without anyone noticing.

Neither Natalie nor Sebastian saw the car.

At the small table, a drunk Natalie burst out laughing in front of Sebastian.

She was using exaggerated facial expressions to tell him that she was happy, as happy as a lark.

However, Sebastian felt a pang of pain.

The more over the top Natalie acted, the more he could tell that Natalie was really wretched.

Tobias returned to the Whitlock family's villa.

Yuna was in the living room. Although seated elegantly, she was waiting uneasily for someone's arrival.

She knew that Peter had called Tobias.

Tobias would come back for dinner on this night.

Yuna could hear her heart pounding.

However, avoiding was not a solution...

Once he found the right opportunity, Tobias wanted to have a good talk with Peter.

"Grandpa, I've always respected you," Tobias said.

His words eased Peter a little, and he just snorted.

The servants began serving dinner.

Taking advantage of this, Hayden hurriedly pulled Tobias into his bedroom.

Hayden said to Tobias in warning, "Daddy, you have to be careful of that woman! Don't be fooled by her innocent appearance! She wants to marry you, and she wants to be my stepmother!"

Tobias once again sighed to himself. How on earth had his son become so precocious?

He laughed and said, "Don't worry, Hayden, she won't be your stepmother."

"Really?" Hayden stared at Tobias with his black eyes. "Can you resist the temptation of this woman's beauty?"

Tobias was at a loss for words.

His tone was displeased. "Hayden, where did you learn all this from?"

Hayden was only a child. What did he know about temptation?

Hayden stuck out his tongue. "I saw it on TV."

Tobias frowned slightly. "You're not allowed to watch television next time."

Hayden muttered to himself in a low voice.

Then he softened his tone and asked, "Daddy, tell me, will this woman be my stepmother?"

As soon he heard Hayden's plea, Tobias's heart also softened.

He looked at Hayden seriously, his eyes deep and serene."Hayden, I can promise you that she won't be your stepmother."

This time, Hayden let out a sigh of relief.

With a cunning smile in his eyes, he asked, "So, the position of my stepmother still belongs to Natalie?"

Hearing Hayden mention Natalie, Tobias was suddenly lost in thought for a moment.

After a while, he squatted down and looked at Hayden steadily.

Tobias's eyes were deeper than the blue sea, unfathomable with no end in sight.

He uttered in a slow and deep voice, "Hayden, It doesn't matter whether Natalie is your stepmother or not."

"What?" Hayden's eyes widened.
