My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



Tiny, wrinkled, like an old man, but still so full of life and hope.

The emotions swelling in Yesseca's heart made it difficult for her to calm down for a very long time.

Matthew pushed Selina into the ward.

Then, he carried her onto the hospital bed.

Her face was pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat.

Despite all that, she was smiling broadly.

She looked at Matthew. "You should go see the baby. Why didn't you? That's your son."

Matthew sat down at the side of the bed and held her hand. "If I went to see the baby, who'd come to see you?"

Whenever a baby was born, everyone would focus on the child and completely forget about the mother.

It was just as Cecilia said, she was a very delicate girl. How was such a delicate natured person like her going to tolerate being ignored? Knowing this, Matthew went to look after her.

Sure enough, after he said that Selina smiled happily. "So you're saying you don't care about your son."

"I care about you a lot more." Matthew then kissed her forehead.

Selina's eyes sparkled. "Matthew, I gave you a son.

I am now the hero of the Perry family."

Matthew broke into laughter. "Silly girl, regardless of the gender of the baby, or even if you didn't get pregnant, you're still the hero of the Perry family."

A sweet smile spread across her face as she said, "Oh right, today really is a day of double joy. Not only was our baby born, Yesseca promised me. She's agreed to be with Kyi in,"

Matthew held his breath.

That must have happened when she asked everyone to leave, so that she could to talk to Yesseca in private...

He calmed down. "Yes, that is good news, you must be very happy now."

"Of course I'm happy."

"Why did you run out of the villa in the middle of the night?" Matthew continued, "You're very lucky that I found you when I woke up in the middle of the night. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known what had happened to you,"

Selina felt a slight buzzing in her brain.

She was overwhelmed by the pain from giving birth earlier and didn't have the strength to think about it.

After she gave birth to the baby, she was so overwhelmed with astonishment and surprise that she didn't have time to think about it either.

It wasn't until Matthew brought it up, did she recall how important it was.

Selina looked at Matthew and said in a trembling tone, "Matthew, I saw Essie,"

Matthew's heart tightened. "You saw her? What did she say to you?"

Everything Essie told her sounded very strange.

She had no idea what any of it meant.

All she knew was that the Essie she saw today, wasn't the Essie she knew from before. She was terrifying and scary.

She also saw Lothar.

Lothar, who was dead.

She felt the air being squeezed out of her lungs.

When Matthew saw the strange expression on her face, he softened his tone. "Don't be nervous, sweetheart. Tell me, what did Essie say to you?" Selina didn't tell him what Essie said. Instead, she said, "I saw Lothar as well,"

Matthew was shocked.

Selina murmured, "I saw Lothar, but I think I was having a hallucination then because my stomach started to hurt just after I saw him. Is it possible to have hallucinations before feeling intense pain? After all, Lothar is gone, how could I have seen him?"

Matthew was confused.

Selina was still mumbling to herself. Matthew was afraid that she might turn manic from this.

He immediately said, "It was an illusion. Women tend to hallucinate before feeling extreme pain. You seeing Essie might have been a hallucination as well,"

Selina looked even more confused.

Was Essie just a hallucination?

No, no. She talked to Essie.

They had talked to each other. How could that be a hallucination?

Selina shook her head. "I might have been hallucinating when I saw Lothar because of how much I miss him, but I'm certain that Essie wasn't just a hallucination. I really saw her."

Selina was exhausted.

Later that day, Cecilia brought the baby in to show to Selina.

When she saw the baby, she smiled and then fell asleep.

The baby might have read his mother's mind.

The baby promptly fell asleep as well.

Everyone left the room.

Matthew made a call to his subordinates.

They had neglected their duties.

They assumed that Essie would only appear during the day, so none of them was looking out for her that night. Due to their negligence, they were unaware that Essie had appeared in the Perry villa.

"Mr. Perry, I assure you that we will not repeat this mistake. I will send some people to keep watch every night."

Matthew wasn't in the mood to reprimand his subordinates at that moment.

"Don't let such a thing happen again," After saying that, Matthew hung up the phone.

He was filled with excitement and joy earlier because of the birth of his son. However, what Selina told him after left him in a whole other mix of emotions.

What was going on?

Yesseca said she had seen Lothar outside her window and now Selina said she saw him too.

But Lothar was dead.

He had undergone a heart transplant to save Selina's life.

Matthew didn't believe that a person could survive without a heart. That was common sense.

Also, why did Essie make her way to the Perry villa, even when no one was around in the middle of the night?

He had been looking for Essie for such a long time. It was impossible that Essie didn't know about it.

However, why did she avoid him after bumping into Selina?

What on earth did Essie want?Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

All kinds of doubts remained unsolved in his mind.

Matthew could only put them aside for now.

Yesseca was still in the hospital.

Matthew told Yesseca to head home.

After all, Selina and the baby were fast asleep, and there wasn't any need for Yesseca to hang around.

Yesseca wanted to stay longer, but under Matthew's insistence, she agreed to leave.

Naturally, Kylin sent her home.

"Alright, I'll be going then," Yesseca said to Matthew.

When Matthew saw the disappointment in Yesseca's eyes, he felt a little bitter in his heart.

He thought about the things Selina told him.

Matthew's brows furrowed.

He asked Kylin to drive his car out to the entrance of the hospital.

After Kylin left, Matthew spoke to Yesseca, "Yessica, Selina just told me that you've agreed to be with Kylin,"

Yesseca nodded.

She smiled and said, "Matthew, you should be congratulating me. I've finally fallen in love,"

Matthew could clearly see the forced smile on Yesseca's face.

He stared into Yesseca's eyes. "Yesseca listen to me. You're in charge of your own heart. Don't force yourself to do something you don't want to do. Doing that will only bring you suffering."

Yesseca was shocked.

She looked at Matthew, "Matthew..... I thought you'd give me your blessing," "If you truly want to be in this relationship, then, of course, I'lK give you my blessings," Matthew then changed his tone, "But if you're doing this just because Selina made you promise to, I won't. Yesseca, don't do anything you disagree with.

If you can't refuse her, just leave that to me. I will make it up to you and Kyi in,"
