My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 872

The occasional smile she made looked painful.

Halfway through the journey, the car suddenly stopped by the side of the road.

Matthew glanced sideways at Selina and spoke, "Do you have something on your mind? You've been distracted this entire time."

The corners of Selina's lips twitched. "Old man, don't look at me while you're driving. I'm going to report to the traffic police that you don't concentrate when driving," she said.

Matthew replied clearly, "It doesn't violate the traffic laws to drive without concentration. By the way, what's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

There was a flash of sadness in Selina's eyes. "Nothing, I'm not in a bad mood," she answered.

"You are," Matthew said firmly.

The corners of Selina's mouth was a little dry.

A few moments later, she stretched out her hands and said, "Well, you're right. I admit that I'm in a really bad mood."

Matthew's eyes darkened and asked, "Tell me, what's wrong?"

Selina closed her mouth and didn't say anything.

"Or is our relationship not good enough for you to tell me what's wrong with you?" Matthew suddenly asked.

Selina pursed her lips even tighter.

"I..." she finally spoke after a while. However, she suddenly found that she didn't know how to continue.

"Selina, how long have we been together?" Matthew stared into Selina's eyes and asked.

There was a sudden pause in Selina's breath.

How long had she been together with Matthew?

This...

She didn't seem to remember.

She had been in a daze and lived unexamined during this period. How could she remember how long she had been with Matthew?

When Matthew saw Selina's reaction, he understood that Selina did not even remember.

He sighed slightly in his heart but his expression was still as gentle as before. "Selina, we've been together for a week, a whole week," Matthew said.

Well, it turned out that it had been a week...

Selina thought about this in her heart.

She didn't expect Matthew to remember it this clearly.

Matthew touched Selina's nose and asked, "You're so muddle headed that you can't even remember how long you've been with your boyfriend, is that right?"

Selina felt a little embarrassed.

Her thick and long eyelashes fluttered and she said calmly, "Old man."

"Just call me Matthew," Matthew said. His eyes were deep and his tone was low.

Selina was stunned.

Matthew...

She had always been a brisk, straightforward person. Changing the way she called someone was normally not a big matter for her. However, she found it hard in this case. Maybe it was because she was already used to it, so she suddenly felt that it was strange for her to change the way she addressed him.

Selina stuck out her tongue and said, "I think calling you 'old man' occasionally is fine. I am still not used to calling you Matthew all the time. What's more, you really are older than me."

Matthew was silent.

He said in a gentle and helpless tone, "Selina, you calling me this makes me feel like I'm preying on a younger woman. It makes me feel like I'm committing a crime."

Although he was truly nine years older than Selina, it wasn't exactly a generational gap.

Selina dismissed Matthew's words.

She looked at Matthew and said, "How can you have a sense of committing a crime? I am not underage and you're not some kind of weirdo. Besides, I hear that it is normal to address your partner in this way in South Korea. That's settled then. I will continue to call you in this way occasionally and won't change it."

Matthew could tell that she really didn't want to change the way she addressed him. He did not insist anymore.

When two people were together, no matter what happened, there would always be someone who needed to compromise.

Since Selina was unwilling to compromise, it would be fine for him to do so.
