My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1087

There was a hint of coldness in the man's tone.

He prepared this specially for Selina, despite the fact that he was exhausted after settling all the work in his company. He thought Selina liked this, hence he made a trip to buy it for her, only for her to throw it away just like that.

He felt as if Selina was stepping on his heart.

Selina sniffed and said, "So is this what you call a gift?"

She sounded extremely sarcastic.

He actually gave her the exact same thing that he gave Joycelyn?

He was trying to disgust her, wasn't he? She already moved on from the fact that Peter ate the previous one, yet Matthew went all the way to buy another one for her!

The more Selina thought about it, the more frustrated she was. She couldn't help but say, "Yes, I'm spoiling your kind gesture indeed!"

Matthew's heart sank even more.

He felt so chilly, as if he had arrived in the North Pole.

After a short while, he suddenly smiled.

It was a cold smirk, showing that he had already seen through this.

His gaze fell on Selina's face, without a hint of warmth in his tone, he said, "Fine, Selina, I guess I was being delusional."

He assumed that Selina was reacting like this because he crossed the line. Selina wanted to be friends, yet the gift he prepared for her must have seemed like he wanted to be more than that.

His voice dropped to a low whisper, "I know what you mean now."

Matthew swore to himself that he would not cross the line anymore.

"You don't understand at all, you b*stard!" Selina said, as tears welled up in her eyes and sorrow filled.

She was the one to be blamed.

Matthew liked her, and she had made things difficult for him in the past.

Now that she started developing feelings for Matthew, he was doing all sorts of things to annoy her.

She couldn't bear this anymore.

Matthew's heart ached as he saw the tears in Selina's eyes.

He felt sorry for her, despite her hurting his feelings this often.

Selina was like his arch nemesis.

Matthew fixed his emotions as he said, "Alright, let's go back. We shouldn't let Peter notice anything off about us."

Selina wiped away the tears in her eyes.

That was right, she couldn't stay this stubborn when they still had to meet with Peter.

Peter was too old to tolerate their nonsense.

"Let's go back, then," Selina replied.

Upon arriving back at the living room, Selina and Matthew already regained their usual composure.

"Didn't the two of you go out for a walk?" Peter asked.

He noticed their absence and naturally he thought they needed some time alone.

Selina walked over with a sweet smile and said, "Of course not. Why would we go out when we have to accompany you here?"

Except for her red eyes, there was nothing unusual about Selina at that moment.

Peter chuckled, "You're really good with your words."

Matthew and Selina then joined Peter to watch TV.

Peter was sandwiched in between them both, with Selina on his left and Matthew on his right.

Peter patted Selina on the hand and said, "You should sit with Matthew."

Selina forced a smile and said, "But I like sitting next to you."

Peter suddenly looked solemn and said, "That cannot happen. You're married now and you should sit next to your husband! That's the rule."

Selina was left speechless.

What rule was this? Were they living in ancient times?

However, she didn't say anything. She moved to sit next to Matthew.

After all, given Peter's current state, they should just listen to him.

Selina felt awkward sitting next to Matthew.
