My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 690

He was definitely still somewhere in this world.

He was just in a difficult situation, and could not appear before her.

There would come a day when he would turn up again.

"Selina, I want to see Auntie." Natalie said.

Selina was taken aback.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across her face. "Natalie, to tell you the truth, my mother really likes you very much. She treats you like a daughter, even better than she treats me! But..."

Selina paused for a while and continued to say awkwardly, "She now firmly believes that my brother is dead, and that it's because of you. She can't think it through like me. No matter how well she treats you, there's no way she wouldn't have any objections. If you want to see her, you'd better come a little later. Wait for my mother to calm down before you return, or you'll be adding fuel to the fire."

Natalie shook her head. "That won't do, Selina. If you say that, I want to go even more. How can I stay out of it when Auntie is so sad?"

Selina licked her lips. "Are you sure you want to?"

Natalie nodded vigorously.

Even if Cecilia wanted to beat her and scold her later, she still wanted to go.

Selina took a fierce breath. "Okay, I'll take you there!"

Selina brought Natalie to Cecilia's bedroom.

Ever since that had happened to Tobias, Cecilia had cried so hard that she fainted several times. In the end, she had collapsed.

Now, she was basically bedridden. A private doctor came every day to check on her.

After entering the bedroom, Natalie could even feel the sadness in the air.

It was just like when she had just woken up in the hospital.

In the ward where she stayed, even the air was full of sorrow.

But later on, she woke up.

She had to live well and live happily, waiting for Tobias' return.

Natalie walked over. Cecilia had her back facing her.

"Mom," Selina called.

Cecilia did not respond.

"Mom, Natalie is here."

As soon as she said that, Cecilia trembled.

It was only for a short while. She quickly calmed down.

Selina looked at Natalie helplessly.

Natalie gave Selina a look, indicating for her to leave.

Although Selina was a little worried, she eventually left after hesitating for a moment.

Right then, only Natalie and Cecilia were left in the spacious bedroom.

As she got closer, Natalie could feel the overwhelming misery emanating from Cecilia.

Her heart ached.

"Auntie, I've come to see you," Natalie said softly.

Cecilia did not speak or react in any way.

Natalie walked to the other side of the bed and stood in front of Cecilia.

Cecilia's eyes were closed. Her face was pale, so pale that there was no trace of warmth.

Natalie tried her best to control herself, but her voice still choked up. "Auntie, I know you blame me and you hate me. You can hit me or scold me, and I won't resist, but please stop hurting yourself like this. Your body won't be able to handle it." There was no response.

"Auntie, can you open your eyes and talk to me? I'm begging you."

Still, there was no response.

Natalie's eyes turned red. "Auntie, if Tobias were to come back and see you like this, he would be sad. You're his most respected mother. He would definitely be upset."

This time, Cecilia finally reacted.

She opened her eyes, and her once beautiful eyes were bloodshot at the moment. "Tobias won't come back."

After a while, Natalie sniffed and said, "Selina, what about Hayden?"

"He's gone to kindergarten. He still doesn't know about my brother."

Natalie gave Selina a pleading look. "Selina, no matter what, please don't tell Hayden about what happened to his father, okay?"

Selina forced a smile. "Don't worry, even if you hadn't told me to, I would have known. Hayden is too young to take this blow. I told him that his father has gone on a business trip and will only come back after a long, long time."

"After a long, long time." Natalie's eyes became a little dimmer.

After a while, she shook her head. "Selina, you're wrong."

Selina was stunned. "Wrong about what?"

Natalie's eyes were full of firmness. "It won't be long. I'm sure it won't be long. Tobias wouldn't be willing to leave us for too long."

Selina's breathing stopped for a moment.

A moment later, she looked up into the sky.

The sky was blue, and there were white clouds.

The clouds were soft like cotton candy.

Selina mumbled, "You're right, Natalie. My brother won't be gone for long. Maybe in a few days, or next month, he will come back. He still has the company, you, Hayden, Mom, and me. How could he bear to leave for too long?"

She paused, her throat a little choked up. "I won't accept him as my brother anymore if he takes too long to come back!"

After that, she looked at Natalie. "Natalie, you have to be the same, too. If he dares to leave for too long, then don't accept him anymore!"

Natalie shook her head, and there was tenderness in her eyes. "Selina, I'll accept him any way he comes. I'll wait for him no matter how long it takes, whether it's a week, a month, a year, or even a decade."

The next day, the police came to Natalie's house.

They brought some items with them.

They were shreds of clothing and shoes.

The corpse had already been blown to pieces, so there was no way to track it down. These were the only things they could find.
