My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 937

She stood before him quietly.

She wore no expression, but even the slant of her lips was enough to send chills down his spine.

For some reason, Matthew suddenly felt a trace of fear.

He didn't know why he felt that way.

"Matthew," Selina suddenly said. "Didn't you offer to cut some fruit for me to eat? Why don't you go and do that now?"

Her tone was light and sweet.

The faint coldness he sensed from her disappeared as she spoke.

"Sure," Matthew answered immediately. "What do you want to eat?"

"What is there at home?"

"We have Java apples, cherries, lychees..." Matthew listed them one by one.

Surprise appeared in Selina's eyes.

He knew what fruits there were in the fridge so clearly, even without asking the servants?

Matthew was so busy at work. How could he know what fruits were available at home? It was such a small detail.

Selina couldn't help but frown. "How do you remember these details so clearly?"

Warmth seemed to emanate from him as he looked at her. "No one in the Perry family likes to eat fruits, so there was originally none at home. After you came, I asked the butler to prepare your favorite fruits. That's why I remember this clearly."

He spoke naturally. He didn't emphasize what he had done for her.

A mocking look flashed across Selina's eyes as she bit her lip.

On the surface, Matthew seemed to be such a considerate person. If people didn't know better, they would have been fooled by him.

Just like her in the past. Back then, she had really thought that Matthew was one of a kind.

"What would you like to eat, or maybe you would like a bit of each?"

"I don't want any of these." She shifted her gaze to him. "I want to eat mangoes."

"Okay." Matthew thought it was a little strange. "You want to eat mangoes when they are not in season?"

Matthew had asked the butler to prepare her favorite fruits. From what he knew about her, she didn't like mangoes.

The corner of Selina's lips twitched. "Because it's yellow."

It was true. The fruits that Matthew had mentioned were the fruits she liked.

Still, because it was something that he had prepared for her, she didn't want to eat them.

Matthew stayed silent.

On any other day, if she had said something like that, he would've made a joke out of it. However, at this moment, he had no desire to do anything of the sort.

"Okay, I'll buy it for you."

"Okay."

"Do you want to come with me?"

"No," Selina declined immediately.

Matthew's tone was gentle. "It's good to exercise a little after dinner. Otherwise, you'll gain weight. Taking a walk will be good for you."

She smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. "I hope I put on weight. It's best if I gain 200 pounds, so that you won't have any impure thoughts of me. Am I right?"

A lot of emotions flashed through his eyes.

"You won't gain 200 pounds," he said in a low voice. "And I will always have impure thoughts about you."

Selina was not in the mood to flirt with him.

"Didn't you say you were going to buy some mangoes for me? Why are you still here?" She glanced at him sideways.

"I'm on my way."

After Matthew left, Selina sat on the sofa alone.
