My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 584

Yvonne looked up and saw that it was Jenkins.

His tall figure loomed over her as he stared intensely at the tablet in her hand. His lips were pursed into a thin line, and his eyes were filled with tension.

Yvonne shifted her gaze back to her tablet and jumped in surprise.

It was a kissing scene between her and the male lead.

She felt her body go numb as panic filled her heart, but she quickly calmed herself down.

It was just acting! Besides, Jenkins was in the entertainment industry. Didn't he know about this?

He probably would not mind, would he?

"Mr. Quartley, this is the web series that I have been in," Yvonne stood up with a smile.

Jenkins's eyes turned cold as he questioned, "Was the kiss staged or real?" His voice was solemn and emotionless, sending a chill up Yvonne's spine.

She chuckled dryly and replied, "It was real, but it was only a brief kiss. We were just filming, so there was nothing..."

Her words suddenly became stuck in her throat.

Jenkins's huge, strong hand had suddenly latched onto her chin, pinching it so tightly that Yvonne could feel the pressure of his fingertips.

Pain shot up her jaw and spread up her cheeks.

Her perfectly plucked brows tightly knitted in agony.

"Mr. Quartley, what's wrong?" Despite the pain, she had managed to squeeze out a smile.

"No more scenes like this in the future. Only stage kisses," He hissed.

Yvonne wanted to refute.

As a professional actress, it was her job to act convincingly. She had treated all the scenes required from her as part of her work, and nothing was going on between her and her colleagues.

However, as she noticed the murderous look in Jenkins's eyes, she didn't dare say another word.

"Alright, Mr. Quartley," She muttered.

Jenkins' grip on her loosened.

Then, he carried Yvonne to the bathroom. He turned on the showerhead, and cold water immediately gushed out from it.

He aimed the showerhead towards her lips and flushed them with water, again and again.

The icy cold water bit into Yvonne's bones, and she was trembling all over. Her lips had already turned purple due to the freezing water, but Jenkins did not stop.

It was unknown how long passed before the torture was finally over.

Jenkins shot Yvonne a warning look as he threatened her, "If I catch you doing this again, you'll be kicked out of the entertainment industry."

Then, he turned around and walked out of the bathroom.

Yvonne's face was ghostly pale.

She had always heard from others that Jenkins was a terrifying man.

However, based on her interactions with him throughout this period, she felt that apart from being a man of few words, he was not as terrifying as people had described him to be.

Besides, the rumours about those things that he did in bed had never happened to her. At most, he had only forced her to swallow...

But now, she suddenly felt afraid of him.

That evening, Natalie cooked herself some spaghetti for dinner. She did not have the appetite to eat anyways.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

It was only a soft knock, so soft that she almost thought she imagined it.

Natalie immediately got up and opened the door.

As she swung the door open, she was greeted by a tiny figure. It was Hayden.

She immediately picked him up into her arms and asked, "Hayden! What are you doing here?"

Peeking out of her apartment door, she whipped her head from side to side as she looked into the corridor. No one was there.

"Did you come alone?" She shot him a surprised look.

Hayden nodded.

She carried him into the apartment.
