My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 29

"Do you know that I won't have an income if I don't have a job? If I don't have any income, I won't have any money to pay for my tuition fees. I won't even have the money to afford my food either. Aren't you being too cruel?" Natalie's blood was boiling with exasperation.

"Are you done?" Tobias's voice was clear and deep.

His dark eyes were focused on Natalie and his face was emotionless.

Natalie was taken aback.

"I'm done," she replied.

"Then it's my turn. You're pretending to be my wife now, so you don't need to work. Naturally, I'll pay for your daily expenses and tuition fees."

Natalie understood what Tobias meant but she was unwilling to accept his offer.

"I don't want to leech off of you. I need to rely on myself and you can't make me lose my job," Natalie refuted.

"I'm not asking you to leech off of me. You're just a student now and it's your duty to study hard. I'll take care of the rest," Tobias concluded adamantly.

Natalie felt like someone threw a stone in her heart and it created a series of ripples in her.

She was just a student and it was her duty to study hard. These words used to be a joke to her.

She wanted to focus on her studies too but how could she study when she did not have the money? She could not even afford to pay her tuition fees, hence she could only take up a few part-time jobs.

However, someone was suddenly telling her that all she needed to focus on now was her studies.

Natalie only needed to study hard and she did not need to care about anything else!

Tobias' remarks warmed her heart.

"It's still school break though and I can earn some money. Besides, it's only six more months until I graduate, so I'm not really a student anymore." Natalie's voice softened a little because she was touched.
