My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) -
Chapter 1354
"We can't do anything now that Matthew has already held that conference," Reid said to Saoirse.
Saoirse bit her lip. "Mr. Perry, please help me to hold another press conference. I won't allow William to be hurt, I will tell them the truth that Selina clearly knew about the existence of William's wife," she decided.
Reid was stunned when he heard about Saoirse's decision.
If she really went through with that, all he had achieved would go down the drain.
Reid immediately stood up.
He took a threatening step towards Saoirse. "Listen to me Miss Welmert, you absolutely cannot do that!" he snarled.
Saoirse was shocked as this was the first time Reid had treated her this way.
She came to herself after a while.
"Why can't I do that? Don't you know what would happen to William because of that conference?" Saoirse questioned him.
Reid's voice was cold, "Miss Welmert, I only know that if you hold a press conference, you would be pushing my brother towards that woman."
Saoirse was appalled.
Reid raised his voice, "Do you know why my brother held that press conference? He did that to protect that woman! If you hold another press conference, you would only be helping that woman indirectly. Miss Welmert, how could you think of such a stupid idea?"
Saoirse was left speechless.
Reid knew that she was wavering.
He softened his tone, "Miss Welmert, yes, my brother is facing a crisis now, but not all hope is lost. Maybe only through this, he will realize that being with you is the best decision he can make," he persuaded her gently.
"But now William is facing so much criticism," Saoirse said painfully.
"Yes." Reid stared into Saoirse's eyes. "His public image is completely ruined, his company's market value is plummeting, and no other company would dare to cooperate with Perry Group, all these will completely destroy him," he listed out.
Saoirse's face paled.
Reid continued, "No man can handle this kind of consequences. When my brother has completely hit rock bottom, it's your turn to step in and help him. You can change the public opinion on him on the condition that he be with you. Isn't this the perfect plan?"
Saoirse's eyes widened.
Reid lowered his voice, "Miss Welmert, it's not easy to change the mind of a man, you must be ruthless and decisive to secure your victory. Trust me, sooner or later, my brother will be yours." Lothar arrived at the Whitlock family home.
He accidentally bumped into someone when he rushed into the living room.
Lothar only felt something soft.
He hurriedly looked up. "I'm sorry," he apologised.
He had collided with Bowie.
The softness he felt was in fact, Bowie's breasts. She was about to lose her temper but was taken aback when she saw his face.
It was a handsome man.
Although he was not as handsome as Tobias, his looks were definitely above average.
Especially when he was covered in sweat, probably due to his running, he let off a strong wave of male pheromones.
Not to mention, he had an amazing figure, which could be felt through his clothing.
Bowie's heart skipped a beat.
Natalie walked up to Lothar when she saw him in the living room.
"Lothar," she greeted him.
She had asked the servants to open the gate for Lothar when he called her after arriving at the villa.
Lothar hesitated for a moment.
"Are you Selina's sister-in-law?" he asked.
Natalie nodded.
Lothar immediately took a towards her. "How is Selina?" he asked worriedly.
"Please wait a moment," Natalie said, "I have to inform Matthew first, if he is fine with this, you can then come up and see Selina."
Lothar could only wait anxiously.
Natalie made her way upstairs.
Bowie followed after her quickly.
"Sister Natalie," she called after Natalie.
Natalie paused and turned to her. "What's the matter?" she asked.
Bowie smiled excitedly. "Sister Natalie, that man just now is excellent, is he the one you wanted to introduce to me?" she hinted at Natalie. Natalie glanced at the love-struck expression on
Bowie's face.
"No, he is Selina's friend. He came here for some important business," Natalie answered her seriously.
Bowie pouted when she heard this.
"Sister Natalie, don't forget your promise about replaceing a man for me," she reminded Natalie.
Natalie was at a loss for words.
This woman was James's niece!
Natalie kept repeating that to herself.
"Yes, I'll excuse myself first," Natalie said to Bowie. She then turned to knock on Selina's door.
Matthew was with Selina in the bedroom. "Selina, have something to eat, you must be hungry," he coaxed her gently.
Selina was unresponsive.
She shut her eyes tightly.
However, Matthew knew that she was awake.
Her eyelashes and her fingers all trembled slightly, giving away the fact that she was not asleep.
She just refused to open her eyes.
She didn't want to look at him.
This thought suddenly appeared in Matthew's mind.
His heart tightened.
He felt as if he couldn't breathe.
"Selina, this is all my fault. But please, don't torture yourself. Please open your eyes and have something to eat," he begged.
Selina still remained unresponsive.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Matthew said softly, "Selina, I'll go
and the door first. If you
don't
like eating then just get
some rest. I'll come back later to accompany you."
Natalie was standing at the door.
She was about to speak when Matthew gave her a look.
He signaled for them to talk somewhere else.
Natalie remained silent.
Matthew closed the door of the bedroom.
He moved to the landing and said," You can speak here, Natalie."
Natalie was surprised that Matthew was still thoughtful in a time like this.
"Matthew, Lothar is here," she informed him.
Matthew's eyes glinted. "Why is he here?" he questioned.
"I picked up his call on Selina's phone. He was worried for Selina and wanted to check on her
after seeing the news. I thought that
maybe he could help to talk to
Selina. Selina had mentioned him to me before, saying that he is a very
cheerful and optimistic person,"
Natalie explained.
Natalie paused and continued, "Of course, you don't need to worry. They're just friends."
"I understand," Matthew said, "I will stay with Selina."
"Matthew, I know you can accompany Selina, but I'm afraid it's really not helping her," Natalie pointed out to him worriedly.
Matthew had been with her for so long. If Selina had really recovered, she would already be downstairs eating.
Matthew's face paled slightly.
Natalie persuaded him, "Matthew,
you are involved in this as much as
Selina. Maybe it's time to let an
outsider try and talk to her. Matthew, let's give Lothar a chance,"
Matthew was silent for a moment.
