My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1248

Matthew's gaze turned darker, "Tobias, do you still remember what happened eight years ago?"

Tobias focused his gaze on Matthew, "I do, but that has nothing to do with your marriage."

Matthew's lips curved into a bitter smile at his reply. He then told Tobias the whole story.

Tobias was a lot calmer compared to Selina. He was able to remain in his seat until Matthew had finished.

At the end of Matthew's story, Tobias felt that his breath had been taken away.

He had never anticipated for things to turn out this way!

After listening to all Matthew had to say, the anger in his heart suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by subdued feelings.

Tobias then asked, "Matthew, do you love her?"

Matthew replied in a hushed voice, "I don't. Tobias, if Saoirse hadn't saved me that year and the situation was out of my control, I would never have married her."

In a firm tone, Tobias commented, "Well, since you don't, then this issue is easy to solve. Divorce her

and have her leave."

Matthew said helplessly, "Tobias, when Saoirse met me, she hadn't even turned twenty years old yet. She did not have any connections with other men for all these years just because of me. I just feel indebted to her."

Matthew simply couldn't treat her by the method Tobias had suggested.

"Then what exactly do you plan to do?"

Matthew fell silent for a moment, then said, "I will try my best to negotiate with Saoirse about this so that she would leave me on her own will."

"If she were to leave so easily, then she wouldn't have come so far to find you in the first place."

"I will try my best."

"If she don't want to leave, are you going to drag this on forever?"

Matthew pressed his lips together, not responding to Tobias.

Tobias wanted to say more, but he quickly silenced himself.

He knew that Matthew was in a difficult position right now.

Such affairs were really hard to resolve.

"Tobias, I need you to do me a favor. Please take care of Selina during this period of time. Don't let her get too upset."

Tobias could only say in an exasperated tone, "How can she not be upset after such a thing has happened?"

Matthew's heart throbbed in pain when he heard this.

"She didn't listen to any of my reasonings. She was too overwhelmed with emotions. Tobias, I honestly fear that she would hurt herself."

"I will tell her your side of the story. She may not listen to you, but she will to me."

And with that, Tobias stood up, adding, "Matthew, I don't want to remark too much on this matter. I know you know well what you need to do but I still have to remind you that the longer you drag this out, the easier the issue will get out of hand."

"I understand," Matthew croaked.

After pausing for a moment, he added, "Take care of Selina for me for a few days. I know she wouldn't want to see me for now."

Selina stayed awake till dawn.

It was a sleepless night.

She had tried numerous ways to fall asleep, but she could never enter an actual slumber.

Halfway through the night, Lothar had called her to check how she was doing.

After exchanging a few words, Selina hung up the phone.

She sat up once it was daybreak.

She hadn't sleep a wink all night. The dark circles under eyes were obvious but she did not feel sleepy at all.

Instead, annoyance was brimming in her heart.

After Selina washed her face, she headed downstairs.

Tobias had also just gotten up.

After he came back from Matthew's place last night, it was already very late into the night so he didn't look for Selina. But now that he met her, he felt that it was necessary to sit down and have a proper chat with her.
