My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 230

She lifted her gaze to look at Tobias and asked, "Tell me, do you love me or not?"

A flash of hesitation flashed in Tobias' eyes.

The light that had just lit up in Natalie's eyes dimmed down again.

Tobias still did not love her.

He said that he fell for her, liked her, but he still didn't love her.

Natalie wanted to leave.

She became greedy. The more she loved, the greedier she became.

She not only wanted Tobias to like her, but she also wanted him to love her.

Otherwise, what was the purpose of this engagement?

What Remington said was true. One could like a lot of people, but they could only love one person.

If Tobias only liked her, did that mean that he could like another person as well?

She didn't want this.

If Tobias didn't love her, she would rather leave before she loved him more.

When Natalie wanted to leave, she realized that her feet were rooted to the ground. Tobias hugged her tightly and did not let go.

"Tobias," Natalie looked at him and said, "Since you don't love me, let me go."

Tobias stared at her. "What if I don't want to let go?"

"Let me go."

"I don't want to," Tobias said in a firm tone.

Natalie suddenly realized that their conversation was immature and meaningless.

She looked at Tobias and said, "Tobias, what the hell do you want?"

If he didn't love her, why didn't he let her go?

If the engagement was for Cecilia's sake, he could find any other woman who would gladly pretend to be a couple with him. Why must it be Natalie?

Tobias' eyes darkened with a mix of emotions as he stared at Natalie. He said in a low and hoarse voice, "Natalie, I want you. I want you for life."

Natalie's heart sank.

Why did this man, who obviously did not love her, say such sweet words to her?

He said that he wanted her for the rest of his life.

If he said this before, Natalie would not have been able to control herself.

But now, she only felt a sense of inexplicable irony.

Natalie bit her lips and said, "But you don't love me!"

Tobias stood still and straight; he did not move.

His eyes flashed with a mixture of emotions.

"Natalie," he said slowly with a trace of exhaustion, "You will find out if I love you or not in the near future."

"No, I want to know now!" Natalie was still persistent.

Tobias stared straight into her soul and replied, "Natalie, love is not about making empty promises. You have to feel it with your heart."

Natalie blinked repeatedly.

Tobias' words touched her heart.

Indeed, she was very clear about how he treated her.

Nonetheless, she still said stubbornly, "Tobias, you don't even want to tell me you love me! What more do you have to say?"

Tobias pursed his thin lips tightly.

The watch he wore on his wrist reflected the moonlight faintly.

After a long time, he finally said, "It's late. Let's go back first."

"I don't want to." Natalie was stubborn.

Tobias seemed to have expected Natalie to say that, so he picked her up again.
