My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 743

Cecilia passed a gold credit card to Natalie. "Natalie, Tobias' father saw you, and he approves of you. This is his gift to you."

Cecilia's voice was gentle.

Natalie was at a loss for words.

She was in a daze. From beginning till end, other than that one glance, Rudopth had not said a single word to her and approved of her just like that.

Seeing that Natalie didn't take the card, Cecilia directly stuffed it into her hand, saying, "Natalie, you may not be used to it, but that's how Tobias' father is. He's all about his work, and he doesn't speak much to anyone aside from me. He's like this with Peter and Tobias as well. Please don't mind him."

"Auntie, of course I don't mind." Natalie quickly expressed her stance.

Cecilia smiled gently and said, "That's good. Now that the whole family is back, let's wait till the guests have all left, and we'll gather for a cup of tea."

Natalie nodded.

She suddenly thought of something and asked somewhat nervously, "Auntie, Uncle doesn't dislike me, does he?"

Although Cecilia had just said that Rudopth approved of her, Natalie was afraid that she was just being polite.

Cecilia said affirmatively, "Natalie, don't worry, he doesn't."

Natalie's heart was finally at ease.

It seemed that Tobias' father was a rather strange man.

Later that night, the guests had all left.

Mr. Whitlock liked to drink tea. Now that the Whitlock family members were all present, everyone kept Peter company and gathered around a huge round table for some tea together.

Truth be told, Natalie felt like that birthday celebration had been more of a social gathering, or even a ball, rather than a celebration.

However, now that the celebration was over and the Whitlock family was gathered for tea, Natalie finally felt like they were actually celebrating Peter's birthday.

However, afterward, Natalie saw Remington.

Remington acted as if he hadn't seen her, and kept his eyes elsewhere.

Natalie suddenly had an indescribable feeling within her.

She had always seen Remington as a friend, but Remington didn't seem to feel the same way.

During the Whitlock family gathering, even though she and Remington had an innocent relationship, she somehow still felt very awkward.

It was especially so when Peter occasionally glanced at Remington, then at herself. His eyes took on a pondering quality.

Natalie forced herself to redirect her thoughts.

There was nothing for her to be awkward about. Nothing had happened between her and Remington.

Thinking of this, Natalie felt much more relieved.

She then turned her attention to Tobias' father.

She realized that Cecilia hadn't lied to her; Tobias' father was indeed a man of few words.

Rudopth barely opened his mouth from beginning to end. Even while Selina chattered on to him, he would only occasionally hum in response.

However, Natalie noticed a detail.

Rudopth's eyes were always on Cecilia, and his eyes shone.

Natalie could tell that Rudopth really liked Cecilia a lot.

Rudopth and Cecilia had been together for so many years, and their children were already all grown up. Couples of their age didn't normally look at each other constantly.

However, that was exactly what Rudopth did. Natalie could almost see the adoration and love he had for Cecilia in his eyes.

In fact, Rudopth didn't seem to be bothered by a lot of things, for instance, the fact that his son suddenly had a wife and son.

Any ordinary person would have made a big fuss out of it, but Rudopth didn't even blink an eye.

Rudopth didn't seem to care. He didn't even show much affection towards Hayden.

It was only towards Cecilia that his eyes were filled with adoration.
