My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Aunt Lee helped Natalie open the box and a sour smell filled the room.

The sour smell did not cause any discomfort. It only made one feel hungry.

"Miss Godfrey, Mr. Whitlock is always thinking about you. He's so busy and yet he still remembered to bring you pickled vegetables. I heard that this store is very famous and there's a long queue every day. The news about the pickles has been posted all over the internet!"

Natalie stared at the pickles in the box.

The crispy pickled vegetables in the box were different from the ones Natalie had seen before. The color was very fresh and it looked delicious.

Natalie did not know of this store. She also knew that Tobias did not need to queue up to buy this.

However, she could not ignore the fact that Tobias had put in a lot of effort.

It was incredible that the president of the YS Group went to buy pickles for her.

Natalie's heart was filled with a mixture of emotions.

At that moment, Tobias picked up a piece and brought it to Natalie's mouth. He said, "Have a taste."

His eyes were deep and serene, like a whirlpool. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Natalie hitched her breathing.

A moment later, she bit the pickle.

It was delicious.

Natalie had never tasted a pickled vegetable like this.

It was not that she had never eaten pickled vegetables before, but she had never eaten such delicious ones. The feeling was indescribable.

After tasting the pickle, Natalie had an appetite for dinner.

She ate two bowls of pasta.

She thought that her stomach was rather spineless. She was trying to ignore Tobias, but she could not resist the delicious food, so she ate shamelessly.

Even though she knew that Tobias had bought it, Natalie still ate it all up.

Natalie was very sad.

She thought that she was indeed a spineless woman.

For example, the night before, she wanted to escape and felt that she hated Tobias very much, but the thought subsided little by little.

She even felt that she was beginning to deceive herself.

Perhaps Cecilia was right. Tobias did not say that he loved her because he was just not good with words. Deep down, he actually loved her.

"Tobias," Natalie put down the bowl in her hand and said, "You can ask all the bodyguards to leave. I won't try to escape again."

Tobias' eyes darkened. "Natalie, are you not angry anymore?"

Natalie's heart was filled with mixed feelings.

She didn't know what she was thinking.

"Also, I want to go to work tomorrow!" Natalie looked at Tobias with a firmness in her eyes.

When she knew her father won the prize, she gave up the idea of working.

She thought that since Tobias was willing to pamper her, she would be capricious for once. She stopped working and considered it a relaxing holiday.

At that moment, she did not want to be a leech anymore.

She thought that it would be better if she was busy with her work. When she was free, she would overthink. She kept thinking if Tobias loved her or not.

"Natalie, you don't have to work because I will take care of you." Tobias stared into Natalie's eyes.

Natalie shook her head and said, "No, I want to work."

Tobias remained silent for a long time.

"If you want to, go ahead. However, you're not allowed to work in places like hotels and bars."

Natalie nodded. "Okay, I'm going to rest now."

After she finished, she went upstairs with a 'swoosh'.

Later that night, there was a knock on the door just as she expected.

She locked the door of the bedroom.

"Natalie is already asleep, so please don't disturb her!" Natalie shouted at the door.

A trace of helplessness flashed across Tobias' face outside the door.

The night passed just like that.

Although what happened the night Natalie ran away was not spoken of, she felt that her relationship with Tobias had changed.

Natalie found Yvonne and asked her to recommend a job to her.

Yvonne's eyes widened when she saw Natalie. She asked, "Natalie, aren't you working as a waiter on the Princess Cruise? Why did you come back so quickly?"

Natalie was at a loss for words.

When Natalie boarded the Princess Cruise not long ago, she still felt that it was a dream.

When she held Tobias' hand and boarded the luxurious cruise, many people cast glances at them. At that moment, she felt that she had become a real princess; it felt like a dream.

But now, her dream was shattered.

"Don't mention it anymore and just recommend a job to me," Natalie said faintly.

Hence, Yvonne introduced Natalie to the women's clothing store that she worked at.

It was a high- end women's clothing store. Every piece of clothing was worth at least 10 thousand dollars.

Yvonne's shift was different from Natalie's. She worked in the evening whereas Natalie worked in the morning.

In the evening when she returned home, Natalie told Tobias about the news.

"I'm going to work at a women's clothing store! There would be no men which means it's not dangerous!" Natalie's tone was indescribably sweet.

Tobias was silent for a moment.

"That's good, Natalie. I'm going abroad for a few days, so take good care of yourself," Tobias said.

Natalie was stunned.

Tobias was going abroad for a few days?

What was he going to do abroad?

Natalie wanted to ask, but she held back her curiosity.

"Oh, I see." She hurried upstairs after she stuffed the last mouthful of food into her mouth.

The next morning, Natalie woke up and found no sign of Tobias.

Since the interaction between them was really awkward, Natalie thought that it was good for Tobias to leave for a few days.

On the first day of work, Natalie met someone whom she did not expect.

She met Queenie!

Queenie held a man's hand and entered the women's clothing store proudly.

She was wearing exquisite makeup with a proud face.

This man was much better than the man who weighed more than 200 pounds that Natalie saw her with last time. This man was young and handsome.

Natalie snorted in her heart. It seemed that Queenie's taste had improved.

Soon, Queenie also caught sight of Natalie.

Her eyes froze as if she had seen a dinosaur.

Natalie rolled her eyelids and said, "Why are you staring at me? It's me, Natalie. Stop looking."

Queenie shivered.

Judging from Natalie's dress, she was working as a shop assistant here!

Queenie felt excited in an instant.

Natalie was working as a shop assistant here!

What did this mean?

This meant that she had lost her power and reputation!

Tobias certainly didn't want her anymore!

Otherwise, why would Natalie work here if she was still Tobias' wife?

Queenie could not contain her excitement.

"Natalie, I was right! Tobias didn't want you anymore. He's tired of you after he played with you! Haha! I actually guessed it correctly!"
