My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 468

No wonder Tobias, the man he had known for so many years and has always been strong suddenly had a vulnerable side.

No one would be able to accept such a thing.

What's more, it was already fortunate that he wasn't driven insane by his own demons.

It was just that...

Confusion flashed across Simon's eyes.

He worked as a psychologist for years and understood something very well.

The observer will forever be the most clearheaded.

No matter how high their IQ was, people would make such stupid mistakes if caught in the situation.

When you get sucked in, many simple things would look impervious and make you sink like quicksand.

For example, Natalie...

Simon had met both Cecilia and Natalie.

He was shocked by Cecilia's gorgeous appearance, which Tobias inherited with his handsome looks.

And as for Natalie...

Although she was nice and lovely, she was nothing compared to that level of stunning beauty.

Or could it be she that looked like her father?

However, the angel-like Cecilia once fell so deep in love with a man in the past. Presumably, that man would be extremely good-looking and charming too.

As he was deep in thought, Tobias opened his eyes slowly.

It was as if he had taken a big nap, and the exhaustion that had been hovering over his body all this time dissipated a considerable amount.

Looking at Simon's face, Tobias uttered with a bitter smile, "You already know."

He was carrying such a huge burden of mental pressure, and now he finally released it for once.

"Tobias," Simon scratched his head. "I really didn't expect you to come across such a thing. No wonder you suddenly broke up with Miss Godfrey. It's really ridiculous."

The smile on Tobias's face became even more ironic. "The god makes fools out of us."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I can help you, you know, I am a psychological expert."

Tobias was silent for a moment. "Simon, how could I speak of things like this?"

Simon pushed the glasses on his nose. "Tobias, do you mind if I ask you about something?"

"Since I've told you my secret, I don't mind at all."

"Okay," Simon said, a glint of light flashing across his eyes. "Have your mother and Miss Godfrey done any DNA test?"

"No, they haven't."

Simon was extremely surprised. "You were convinced just based on what Miss Godfrey's adoptive mother said?"

"And my mother too, she admitted."

Simon was even more shocked, his jaw dropping silently to the floor.

He knew that Tobias has a terrifyingly high IQ, and he was always calm when dealing with things.

He was wholly convinced by the story of Natalie's adoptive mother and Cecilia and didn't even ask them to take a paternity test.

"What about your mother? Did she do it?"

"I don't know."

Simon pondered for a moment.

No, there shouldn't be any.

Those who were involved were confused whereas the bystanders were clear.

He seemed to have found the problem.

He stared into Tobias' eyes and asked seriously. "Tobias, I don't think your mother did the test either. Is it because you are all afraid? A fear coming from inside of you?"

Tobias's breathing suddenly hitched.

Simon continued, "Because you're afraid, you thought this to be true too, or were you too scared to even do a paternity test?"

Tobias and Cecilia's mental psyche was what drove them to use escapism as a coping mechanism.

Tobias looked at Simon quietly. He then spoke, "Simon, what do you mean?"

Simon averted his gaze to somewhere else.

He realized that staring at Tobias in a questioning tone would make him even more nervous.

So Simon relaxed his tone and explained, "Tobias, I don't know how it is, but I have met Miss Godfrey and your mother. To be honest, Miss Godfrey didn't inherit your mother's beautiful looks, and she looks nothing like your mother."

Tobias's entire body was stunned.

He stared at Simon, his eyes widening.
