My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 640

Natalie's eyelashes trembled violently.

This was not the first time Tobias had helped her.

Previously, she had always felt grateful.

However, this time, she felt something else besides gratitude.

It turned out that she and Tobias lived in two completely different worlds.

In this shopping mall, she could only be surrounded and framed.

And Tobias was the one who called the shots.

There was such a big gap between the two of them.

Natalie slowly stood up, and she also helped James up.

"Thank you," Natalie said to Tobias in a low voice.

She then took James' hand, and was about to leave.

"Natalie, I'll get someone to send you back."

"No." Natalie lowered her gaze. "Tobias, I'm ashamed enough as it is. Can you leave me with my last bit of dignity?"

Tobias felt a jolt in his heart.

Natalie took James' hand and left.

Every step she took made her feel exhausted.

Countless images flashed through her mind, and it felt like she'd gone back in time to five years ago.

Five years ago, she was still a freshman. She was an extremely naive and immature girl.

Back then, she had been in dire straits, and was sold off to an idiot by Madison. When she looked for Tobias for help, they had a one night stand.

Then, because of Cecilia, Natalie had somehow gotten married to Tobias. From then on, she had ascended to wealth, and her fate had changed.

However, it was not like a fairy tale where the prince and the princess would live happily ever after.

Because fairy tales were just fairy tales in the end.

And she was not a princess.

Natalie's heart was filled with misery.

At this moment, her situation was in stark contrast to that of Tobias, who called the shots.

Natalie took a deep breath.

Tobias watched Natalie's back as she left.

She was supporting James as they walked with great effort.

It was as if she was trampling on his heart with every step she took, causing him to feel waves of pain.

Finally, Matthew patted Tobias' shoulder.

Matthew stared at Tobias. "What are you waiting for? Go chase after her."

Tobias snapped back to reality, and quickly gave chase.

Natalie was unable to walk very fast since she was supporting James. When Tobias caught up with them, Natalie had just arrived at the entrance to the shopping mall.

Upon seeing that Tobias had caught up with her, Natalie paused.

"Natalie, I'll send you back," Tobias said.

Just as she was about to refuse, Tobias' gaze fell on James. "Your father isn't wearing much. Aren't you afraid that he'll get cold?"

Natalie's breathing hitched.

It was true that James wasn't dressed for the weather.

"I'll call a taxi," Natalie answered in a low voice.

"Natalie, he's Hayden's grandfather. I should send him back," Tobias insisted in a deep tone.

Natalie flinched.

She looked at Tobias in astonishment.

He had just said that James was Hayden's grandfather.

He was willing to acknowledge James as Hayden's grandfather.

Nobles like Tobias probably valued their reputation very much. They were not likely to be willing to let a dejected and even mentally unstable person like James be their son's grandfather.

However, that was exactly what Tobias had said.

He said that James was Hayden's grandfather.

Natalie's feelings were extremely complicated.

In the blink of an eye, Tobias had already opened the door.

"Come on, Natalie," he said. His tone was firm.

This was James' own business. There was no need for Tobias to tell her this.

Natalie lowered her eyebrows and responded, "It's not your fault. You don't have to think too much about it." She paused before she continued, saying, "Thank you for today."

Hearing Natalie thank him, a ripple flashed through Tobias' gaze.

Natalie was not treating him so harshly anymore.

Meanwhile, Natalie suddenly looked up at him. "Tobias, can I ask you for one thing?"

Her sudden soft tone made the ripple in Tobias' gaze grow.

"Go ahead, Natalie."

"Where exactly are Brayden and Queenie now? Can you allow them to meet with my father?" She asked.

She could not bear to see James like this. Her heart couldn't help but soften.

Her request was simple. She just wanted James to meet Queenie and Brayden. There was nothing else.

Tobias fell silent for a moment.

"Natalie," he responded softly. "Have you thought about what you're going to do after they meet?"

Natalie did not hesitate. "They should still get the punishment that they deserve."

"Natalie," Tobias said slowly with a sigh. "You are too naive. If they meet with your father, they will definitely ask him to persuade you. When the time comes, you'll only be bringing yourself endless frustration, unless you really want to let those two people go."

Natalie's breathing hitched.

It was not until Tobias said so that she realized that she'd only considered one aspect.

Natalie bit down on her lips tightly.

If this were the past, she would have pleaded for Brayden and Queenie, for Tobias to let them go.

But now, she could not.

Because no matter how it was at first, Brayden and Queenie had only been cruel to her, they had only hurt her.

But things were different now.

With how Brayden had treated Selina, she had no right to plead.

Brayden and Queenie deserved to be punished, but it was James who was suffering.

Seeing Natalie's pale face, Tobias felt his heart throb in pain.
