My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 469

His gentle voice sounded like spring water that could soothe the heart.

Subconsciously, Natalie let go of her hand.

When Tobias's figure disappeared into the dark for a long time, Natalie suddenly came to her senses.

What was she doing just now?!

She couldn't believe that she was actually confused by Tobias's words and eyes. She even let him go!

Natalie gritted her teeth. She promised herself that she must get to the bottom of this matter tomorrow, no matter what.

That night, Natalie did not sleep well.

She had a lot of questions circulating in her mind, which made it impossible to sleep.

She woke up early the next morning.

Sitting in the living room downstairs, she waited for Tobias.

Today, she had to get to the bottom of everything.

However, another accident happened.

Cecilia came back.

Natalie did not see Tobias, but she saw Cecilia.

Cecilia appeared at the Whitlock house in the morning.

The moment she saw Cecilia, Natalie did not feel panicked or afraid but startled.

It had been four years since they had seen each other, but she hadn't expected Cecilia to end up like this.

She had lost quite a lot of weight. She was bony, haggard and her cheeks sunken.

Her skin wasn't as bright as it used to be. It was sickly pale, close to the color of a corpse.

"Auntie," Natalie shot up at once, greeting her.

She looked at Cecilia in unconcealable disbelief.

What on earth happened? How did Cecilia become like this?

Astonishment flashed across Cecilia's eyes when she saw Natalie.

After a while, she stretched out her hand and held Natalie's tightly. "Natalie, how have you been doing after all these years?"

Her voice croaked weakly, choked with sobs.

Natalie could feel that Cecilia's hand had only skin and bones left.

"Auntie, are you really alright?" Natalie asked, her expression was a mixture of alarm and concern.

"Madam, Mr. Tobias..." Just then, someone barged in in a hurry, but words were stuck in his throat as he saw Natalie.

They looked at each other, and surprise flashed in each other's eyes.

Joshua did not expect that Natalie would be here.

Natalie also never expected that Joshua would be here.

A hot current surged into Natalie's mind, making her feel giddy. She let go of Cecilia's hand and rushed to Joshua.

"Joshua, did you lie to me back then?" Natalie asked, staring into Joshua's eyes urgently.

Joshua, however, lowered his eyes a little guiltily.

Cecilia came over and said, "Natalie, don't you want to ask me something? Can we talk about it later?"

Natalie stared at Cecilia suspiciously.

Cecilia's words seemed to indicate that she knew something as well.

"Natalie, can't you wait a little longer?" There was a hint of pleading in Cecilia's tone.

Natalie took a deep breath.

No matter what, she still respected Cecilia a lot.

Since Cecilia told her to wait, then she would wait. Anyway, she was not in a hurry to ask at the moment.

In the room, Cecilia was sitting across from Tobias.

This time, it was Tobias who called Cecilia here.

After tossing and turning the entire night, he had figured it out and came to a decision.

No matter what, he wanted the two of them to take a paternity test.

Even if the chances were slim, he was going to try. He needed to know the end result.

"Tobias, are you trying to say that you still want to be with Natalie?" Cecilia's tone was unexpectedly calm.

When she saw Natalie downstairs, she seemed to have understood something.

"Mom, I... "Tobias was about to mention taking the paternity test but was interrupted by Cecilia.

"Tobias, let's have lunch together, no matter what. We'll talk after lunch, okay? Promise me." Cecilia's tone was soft, her eyes were the same pleading look she showed Natalie.

Glancing at Cecilia's frail and skinny frame, Tobias swallowed the words he was about to say.

He nodded. "Okay."

Lunch at the Whitlock house.

For some reason, Selina, Peter, and even Remington weren't there.

Only Cecilia, Natalie, and Tobias sat at the table.

"Madam, are you really sure?" Joshua looked at Cecilia with hesitation in his eyes.

"I've decided. Go put the two pills into each of Tobias' and Natalie's glasses." Cecilia's expression was very calm.
