My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1298

He stood up and spoke in a solemn tone, "Saoirse, since you are now an employee of the Perry Group, you must abide by the company's regulations and use a formal address while talking to me."

Saoirse blinked her beautiful eyes and asked, "Is there really a need to act like strangers?"

"It's not acting like strangers, it's just complying with the company's regulations."

After a moment of silence, she laughed it off and said, "Okay, Mr. Perry."

She shrugged and said, "It does feel foreign to address you in such a formal manner."

"It'll be fine once you get used to it. You can get back to your work now."

"Don't you want me to give you a massage?" Saoirse suggested in a soft tone.

"Saoirse, you're currently at work."

"What about after work then?"

Matthew pursed his lips. "Saoirse, my wife will not be happy with this."

Saoirse's expression shifted slightly. "William, I'm also your wife."

"Saoirse, I agreed to keep you company for half a year. You know why I did so. If I can keep my promise, I hope you will do the same."

Saoirse looked at Matthew with her blue eyes and said, "Fine then, William."

"Don't call me 'William'."

"Mr. Perry." Saoirse stood there gracefully. "Then I better get going. You can continue with your work, just call me if you need coffee or something. After all, I am your assistant and it is my job to look after you."

Selina tagged along with Yesseca and Lothar when they left the hospital and headed home in the afternoon.

Yesseca and Lothar lived in one of the units of an old and run down apartment.

The house was very small, spanning a mere 60 square meters.

Selina raised her eyebrows. "How can you live in such a small place? I'll find you a bigger house."

Lothar immediately rejected the offer, "It's fine, this place is big enough to live in."

Yesseca also said, "Miss Whitlock, you've helped us too much. We can't trouble you anymore."

Selina insisted, "This place is too small. Besides, it's not a big deal for me."

Buying them a bigger house was just a trivial matter to Selina.

Lothar pulled Selina aside and whispered, "Selina, I'm a man. You're already helping so much, and now you want to find a bigger house for us? Strangers might think that you're my sugar mommy."

Selina was speechless.

She glared at Lothar. "Why would I need a sugar baby when I have such beautiful features?"

"You've got a point." Lothar said, "So don't bring up this topic again, Selina."

Selina agreed and held back on the desire to help them.

It was true that Lothar was a man. He carried himself with pride, just as a man should. If he accepted too much help from someone else, it might hurt his dignity.

She smiled and said, "Come to think about it, small houses are more cozy anyway."

Yesseca also smiled. "That's right, Miss Whitlock. It's better than staying in the hospital. Compared to the cramped hospital bed, this place is so much bigger."

She grinned.

Selina looked at Yesseca as her heart skipped a beat.

In theory, Yesseca should be depressed considering the fact that she had often fallen ill and been confined to a hospital bed. However, she always had a smile on her face, which was really surprising.

She really admired Yesseca's optimism.

"Selina, why don't you stay for dinner tonight. I'll show you what I'm capable of. My culinary skills are very good," Lothar spoke up.

He had been waiting for a while to treat Selina to a meal.

However, he knew that he wasn't financially capable of inviting Selina to any luxurious restaurant. If he cooked, at least it would show his sincerity.

He didn't have time to cook by himself in the hospital, so when he returned home, he naturally had to cook a meal for Selina as a token of appreciation.

"Okay," Selina accepted his offer. "I've never tasted your cooking before."

"Then I'll go buy some vegetables. Both of you can just stay here and wait." Lothar left with the widest grin on his face.

"Miss Whitlock, come over here." Yesseca suddenly took Selina's hand and walked to the door.
