My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1223

Matthew's grasp stiffened.

Saoirse looked at Matthew with her beautiful eyes, and spoke with a voice full of emotion and firmness, "I don't want anything. I only want you. I don't need the things you give. All I care about is you."

Liselle also chimed in, "Sir, Miss Saoirse just wants to be with you after waiting for you for so many years."

Matthew's lips pursed into a straight line.

At the Perry family villa.

Selina and Prine had just finished preparing lunch together.

Taking into account Matthew's preference for food, they'd opted for dishes that were milder in taste.

Selina was not really a fan of mild-tasting food as she would get bored if she ate them too frequently.

She could not help but mutter, "I still prefer food with lots of spices over bland ones like these. I don't know why Matthew likes light food so much. I wouldn't be able to stand it if I had to eat them every day."

Erine chuckled, "The food preference matches a person's personality."

It was the first time Selina heard such a statement. She looked at Erine with curiosity and asked, "How is that so?"

How could food preference match a person's personality?

Erine explained, "For example, people with hot tempers usually prefer food seasoned heavily with spices. Such as salty, and spicy. Whereas, gentle individuals like Mr. Perry prefer light- flavored dishes."

Selina felt that Erine's words seemed to make sense.

However...

She looked at Erine and asked, "Erine, how did you know about this?"

Erine had never mentioned this to Selina in the past.

Erine smiled sheepishly and admitted, "I saw it on TV some time ago. I thought it was meaningful, so I wrote it down."

Seline carefully thought of what Erine said again.

Matthew really had a gentle nature.

Except when they were in bed together.

Selina proceeded to have her lunch first before getting the lunch box ready.

The lunch box had three layers. The first layer had beef stew in it, the second layer was filled with stir-fried vegetables, and the third layer was mashed potatoes.

After preparing the lunch box, Selina set off.

However, when she arrived at the Perry Group, there was not a single soul in the president's office.

Selina was about to call Matthew, when she suddenly saw Matthew's assistant at the door.

She called out to the assistant, "Where is Mr. Perry?"

The assistant was surprised to see Selina at the office.

"Mr. Perry is not at the office," the assistant replied.

"Did something happened?" Selina asked instinctively.

The assistant shook his head, "No, Mr. Perry has been busy these few days, and he handed all his work to the executives. He said that he would not come to the office for some time."

Selina's facial expression changed.

Seeing the sudden change in Selina's expression, the assistant felt that something was wrong.

Could it be that Selina had not been informed about it?

Did he say something wrong?

"Miss Whitlock, do you want to have a seat?" the assistant stammered.

"No need," Selina went towards the elevator and pressed the button.

Her mind was in a mess.

She initially thought Matthew was too busy at work to go collect the marriage certificate, but now he wasn't even at the office.

Moreover, he had handed over all his work for the past few days to his executives.

Where exactly was he?

As the elevator reached the first floor, Selina dialed Matthew's number.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected.
