My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 529

Lisa would never dare to say such things in front of Tobias.

But Natalie's personality was gentle and innocent. Therefore, she did not have to hold herself back when she was talking to Natalie.

The three words "get it on" stood out in Natalie's mind like neon lights.

Her face immediately flushed red, like a tomato.

What kind of nonsense was Lisa saying?

Natalie wanted to explain, but Lisa shot her an understanding look.

"You've got the wrong idea, Lisa. It's not what you think," Natalie whispered through clenched teeth.

Lisa wanted nothing more than to get the real scoop on Natalie, but Tobias was still in the office.

She pushed that thought of gossip away and waved Natalie goodbye before leaving.

Only Tobias and Natalie were left in the office.

"Come here." Tobias's eyes flicked towards Natalie.

She walked over reluctantly, as slow as she could manage without making it seem too weird.

"Pick out the food that I don't like and eat them."

She opened the lunch box slowly, stalling as much as she could. "But I don't know which food you dislike, Mr. Whitlock."

Of course, she was faking it on purpose.

How could she not know the food that Tobias disliked when she had been in charge of his meals for so long?

Since he had forcefully placed her under house arrest, she thought she could have a little fun annoying him on purpose.

Tobias glanced casually at her. "Whatever food you like are the ones I dislike. Remember this."

Her tiny nose scrunched up in frustration.

Alright, she had failed to annoy him.

Pouting her lips, she slowly picked the food she liked to eat into her lunch box.

Tobias waited for her to dig in before he started eating.

She sneaked a glance at him as they ate, and as usual-he ate with grace and elegance.

Her gaze unintentionally traveled down his arms and landed on his strong hands gripping the utensils firmly. Lisa's words suddenly rang in her mind.

"Get it on with you in the office."

Her cheeks felt hot again. She was burning up.

Lisa's description seemed incongruent with the demeanor of the gentle and noble man sitting across her.

"What are you thinking about?" Tobias looked at her.

"Ah! It's nothing," she blurted, guilt evident all over her face.

"Really? Nothing?"

"Yeah." She quickly stuffed a spoonful of food into her mouth as a cover-up, and her cheeks bulged.

After dinner, Tobias still had no intentions of letting her go.

"Mr. Whitlock, doesn't Hayden need someone to take care of him at such a late hour? Does he not need someone to sleep with him?" Breaking the silence, Natalie tried to talk him into letting her go by using Hayden as an excuse.

Tobias's answer was casual and indifferent. "I've already informed the servants. They will take care of him."

Natalie narrowed her eyes at him.

It looked like her last plan had also failed.

Running out of ideas, she rubbed her eyes and murmured, "But Mr. Whitlock, I want to sleep."

Tobias tilted his chin towards the sofa. "This sofa is big enough for you. If you don't like sleeping on the sofa, I'll get someone to buy a bed and bring it in. I don't mind sleeping together with you."

His words rendered her speechless.

She was on the verge of a breakdown.

Helpless, she stared at him and pleaded, "What is it that you want from me, Mr. Whitlock?"

He looked at her meaningfully and replied, "I want you to give me an answer. Do you like me or not?"

His attractive eyes bore into hers.

Natalie's heart thumped frantically.

She couldn't figure out the answer to that question.

Perhaps she had already known the answer, but she just wanted to avoid the topic.

She refused to answer the question because she was avoiding him.

"Mr. Whitlock, could you not ask me this question?" She asked, biting down her lip so hard it almost drew blood.

Tobias's eyes glinted.

He raised his eyebrows in amusement.

Since she was so afraid of answering the question, he had to get it done another way.

"Natalie, how about we try to figure out this thing
