My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1384

"Hello," she greeted gently.

It was only a short period of time that they had not contacted each other, but Selina felt like it had been tens of thousands of years.

"Selina, how are you?" The man's low voice was heard through the phone.

It was a very attractive male bass voice, full of projection power.

She did not know why but she suddenly choked up. "I'm fine."

Matthew heard Selina's choked voice. He said in an anxious tone, "What's wrong, Selina?"

Selina took a deep breath.

She tried to make her voice sound normal. "Nothing. It's just that my throat hasn't been very well these past two days. Perhaps it's because I ate too much spicy food."

"You should eat less spicy food."

"Okay." Selina said, "I went back to the Perry family estate. Do you know that the vegetables in the vegetable garden are growing really well? Prine has even cooked them for me. They were very delicious."

After a pause, she said faintly, "You should try them when you come back."

The breathing on the other end of the line had gotten heavier.

"Okay, wait for me to come back and I'll taste it then."

Matthew put down the phone in his hand.

At this moment, he and Saoirse had already arrived at the town that she had mentioned.

The town's population was very small, but the scenery was extremely beautiful.

Furthermore, the house that they were at was the same home that Saoirse's mother used to live in. There was no one living in the house anymore, but fortunately, the water and electricity could still be used as usual, and the house was also clean and tidy.

For dinner, Matthew planned to cook for Saoirse personally.

Although he and Saoirse didn't have any mutual feelings, they were still husband and wife in name. Moreover, he had never cooked for her before.

The dishes he cooked were simple. They were all prepared in less than thirty minutes.

"Have a taste. What do you think?" Matthew said to Saoirse.

After a bite, a smile appeared on the corners of Saoirse's lips. "It tastes good. William, this is the first time you've made something for me to eat. I didn't expect that I'd be able to taste your cooking at the last moments of my life."

Matthew felt like his heart was being cut by a knife.

He tried to make his voice sound as light as possible. "Since it's delicious, you should eat more."

After dinner, Saoirse asked Matthew to accompany her for a stroll, to which Matthew agreed.

As they were walking, Saoirse told Matthew all kinds of things that happened when she was with her mother here as a child.

"When I was a child, I stayed here for a long time. Many of the old neighbors knew me, but now these neighbors are all gone. I guess they have all moved away."

While they were talking, an old person with blond hair and blue eyes came over.

She noticed that it was Saoirse, thus she stopped in her tracks.

"Are you Saoirse?" she asked.

Saoirse was taken aback.

After she thought for a long time, she finally recalled who she was.

"Aunt Mary," Saoirse replied with joy.

Although Saoirse addressed the woman in front of her as "Aunt", they were not related by blood. It was only because of the good friendship between Mary and her mother that Saoirse had addressed her as "Aunt".

When she lived in this small town as a child, she had often went to Mary's house to play.

Mary looked at her while smiling and said, "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you've become more and more beautiful."

"Likewise, Aunt Mary. You still look so young."

"I'm really old now." Mary sighed.

She looked towards Matthew with amazement in her eyes. "Saoirse, is this your husband? He's very handsome."

The faces of both Saoirse and Matthew revealed a hint of embarrassment.

However, Mary was looking at Saoirse with expectant eyes.

Saoirse didn't know what to say.

However, Matthew said, "Yes."

Saoirse's heart skipped a beat.

Mary then complimented Matthew and they talked for a long time before she left.
