My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1099

Selina was anxious.

She didn't want to answer, but Matthew's gaze was too pressuring, and Selina felt so stressed she was unable to even breathe.

She took a deep breath and said, "Matthew, you were a great person to me, but after some misunderstandings, you became someone I hated the most in the world. After clearing those misunderstandings up, I don't think you're that annoying. That's all."

She had said a lot, but none of it was what Matthew wanted to hear.

"What about now?" Matthew stared into her eyes.

Selina gulped.

She felt like her chest was about to explode.

"I..." Even after what felt like days, Selina couldn't say another word.

In the end, it was Matthew who broke the silence.

He gazed at her with his clear eyes. "Selina, I thought that you hated me and even despised me, but..." At that point, Matthew paused, and his gaze seemed to cloud over. "But having seen how violent your reactions were today, Selina, I'm confused. When I think about all the things that have happened lately, I get even more confused. Selina, tell me, how should I get my answers?"

Selina felt that her throat was dry.

She knew what Matthew meant. She knew what he was confused about.

However, what should she say?

How should she answer Matthew?

Selina then asked, "What do you think, then?"

"I want you to tell me." His skin, pointed nose and thin lips were even more dazzling under the moonlight.

"No, you tell me," Selina insisted.

"You need to let me know," Matthew repeated.

"You tell me," Selina said.

Their conversation got repetitive, and Matthew fell silent for a while.

His gaze was fixed on Selina, and he didn't say or do anything. He was just staring at her.

After a moment, he suddenly bent down, and his lips fell on Selina's.

Overwhelming tension swept through Selina.

Feeling anxious, Selina instinctively took a step back. Then, her foot slipped, and she fell backwards onto the ground.

The fall was incredibly embarrassing.

Although she was lying on the ground, Selina was not injured whatsoever.

However, the place she had fallen was right where the tomatoes and cabbages were planted.

As a result, Selina was dyed in tomato juice and cabbage leaves were all over her body as well. She looked hilarious.

Matthew pulled her up, with her whole body soaked.

Neither of them were interested in continuing with their earlier conversation.

"Let's head back and have you take a shower." Matthew then led Selina back to the villa.

However, they only took a few steps before running into Peter.

Earlier that night, when Peter retired to his bedroom, he called Cecilia on the phone to ask about Natalie's delivery. Cecilia told him it would be soon.

Peter felt a little down.

He was always told that the delivery was near, but it still had yet to come.

Peter couldn't fall back to sleep after hearing this.

Hence, he decided to take a walk in the vegetable garden, to divert his attention to his favorite vegetables.

Yet, before he could arrive in the garden, he ran into Matthew and Selina.

Selina was drenched in tomato juice and cabbage leaves, looking like a huge mess.

Peter startled for a while, before coming to realization.

He said pointedly at Selina, "I know you youngsters like a change of environment, but you can't do it in the vegetable garden. Look at how you messed up the vegetables!"

Selina and Matthew were left speechless.
