My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1726

Essie spoke again by stressing each word, "Lothar could have survived longer. If I could save him, how is it possible that he only had few days left to live? He could have lived a long life. But he lied to you in order to save your life."

Selina felt as if she received a heavy blunt to her head. She was astonished.

Essie continued, "Lothar knew that you would not accept his heart, which was why he lied to you. I disagreed, but he begged and pleaded with me to go along with him."

Essie was on the brink of madness as she continued, "Selina, I regretted it the moment Lothar died. I could have not gone along with his plans but my heart softened. He could have lived if he had the time to recover. He could go back to living his normal life. But, you, Selina, you were the one that destroyed it all."

Selina's face turned pale instantly.

Matthew froze as well.

When Lothar had decided to donate his heart to Selina, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't point out what was wrong. Now that Essie had mentioned it, he finally knew it.

He believed Essie was telling the truth.

He never imagined that Lothar would sacrifice his life for Selina's sake.

Essie continued, "After that, I preserved Lothar's corpse and it was a coincidence that I found a way to resurrect him. As long as I return Lothar's heart back, he will be resurrected!"

After saying that, Essie pointed at Lothar, who was standing in the corner. "Then, he'll be as he was in the past. He would be alive again."

Selina's eyes wavered.

After a long time, she looked intently at Matthew and said, "Matthew, take care of yourself and take care of the child well. Don't miss me. You should live well."

Speaking of that, Selina's eyes reddened. "I know you don't want me to leave and I don't want to leave you either. But I can't just forget everything that Lothar did for me. He sacrificed so much for me. I can't just be selfish and take his heart. Now is the time for me to return his heart."

Matthew suddenly reached out to grab Selina's hand.

He held Selina's hand tightly.

His deep and hoarse voice rang in Selina's ear, "You can't die. You should continue living a good life. You're still young. How can you die so early?

I'm much older than you. If one of us needs to die, that would be me."

Selina was speechless.

Matthew then let go of her hand.

He looked at Essie with a sharp gaze. "Take my heart. I'll repay Lothar for what he did for Selina."

Selina couldn't help but yelled, "Matthew, you can't do this."

Matthew turned around and smiled at her.

The smile was as sweet and loving as ever. "I have to do this. I have loved you for so long. How can I bear to let you lose your life now?"

Before Selina could say more, Essie said, "Matthew, your heart won't work. Lothar won't be able to live even if he has your heart. He needs his own heart back."

Matthew's expression changed.

He growled in a low voice, "I won't allow you to do that."

He could have Essie take his own life.

But he could not let Essie have Selina's life.
