My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1676

"Where are your parents?" Mr. Whitock asked.

Yesseca lowered her voice and said, "My parents have passed away, it's just me in that apartment,"

Peter's heart skipped a beat.

This girl is from a poor family and has lost both of her parents at such a young age.

He figured that her family might have been poor, but she was probably doing ok for herself.

After all, Yesseca looked like she was doing quite well.

"Where do you work?" Peter asked.

"At the business mall, I sell clothes. If you're ever in the market for a suit or some new clothes, you should visit us sometime," Yesseca said.

Peter's heart sank.

She's a saleswoman for a clothing store?

"Where did you graduate from?" Peter assumed she had probably gone to a rather ordinary university to have ended up selling clothes.

Yesseca replied, "I've never been to university Mr. Whitlock,"

Peter was speechless.

His heart was palpitating.

He had hoped that despite her family's poor background, she would be able to make up for it with her own personal effort. However, he didn't expect Yesseca to be just as poor. Even if she was a salesgirl, she didn't even get herself an education from a university.

He remembered that Kylin graduated from a first-class foreign university.

This...

Peter had a headache.

Why did Kylin find himself such a woman?

He and his cousin, Tobias, were just the same.

Peter suddenly found that there was very little he could discuss with Yesseca.

Kylin then returned with a cup of coffee.

Peter took the cup of coffee and said, "It's quite late. You should send her home,"

After Kylin and Yesseca left, Peter summoned Tobias.

He said with some dissatisfaction, "Your cousin doesn't seem very close with you. Why then does he have the same prefences as you?"

Tobias didn't understand.

Mr. Whitlock then spoke straightforwardly, "When it comes to women, I mean. She has no qualifications, a lowly job and no family. What the hell is that?"

Tobias then understood.

He laughed.

"How keen of you to have noticed that about Kyi in."

"This is what's called being insightful!" Peter then raised an eyebrow.

"What ordinary people often lack is vision. Most people would fall back onto the education their families provided them to define themselves, but often ignore the essence of their lessons. Kylin has vision."

"So you're saying I don't have vision!" Peter spoke loudly.

"That's not what I mean, Grandfather," Tobias replied with a smile.

Peter sat quietly.

He seemed to recall that his grandson used to be quite serious and never cracked any jokes, but now that he was married to Natalie, he seemed to have become quite the comedian.

Peter waved his hand at Tobias. "Forget it. You youngsters don't care for family backgrounds or education when it comes to your partners. I'm already so old, I can't be bothered with any of this anymore."

Yesseca asked Kyi in if Mr. Whitlock was dissatisfied with her.

She wasn't dumb.

She could tell that Mr.Whitlock wasn't very happy to talk to her after she answered his questions.

There was a faint smile in Kyi in's eyes. "Why do you think that? If the old man wasn't happy with you, he wouldn't want to see you again."

Yesseca insisted. "No, I don't think he's satisfied with me."
