My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 1370

Normally, Selina wouldn't have given it much thought.

But at a moment like this, she would have panicked at any slight changes.

"Did something happen?" Selina kept asking.

After being continuously questioned, Matthew had no choice but to tell Selina the truth.

Selina was stunned.

"Is your father still in the hospital?"

"Yes, I'm going to stay with him for awhile."

Selina thought for a moment. "I'll come to the hospital too."

"You don't have to. I can accompany him."

Selina was insistent. "Your father is in the hospital, but you're not letting me come. Matthew, you're treating me as if I am an outsider. I must come." Matthew finally agreed.

Selina went to the hospital.

Matthew picked her up at the hospital entrance.

She looked a little anxious. "Why was your father suddenly admitted into the hospital?"

Matthew sealed his lips and didn't say anything.

Selina immediately looked up. "Is it because of what happened between us?"

Matthew's spoke slowly. "He flew back last night. He heard some rumors on the plane."

Her heart sank.

Matthew sensed her expression.

He immediately took her hand. "Don't worry. He's all right now."

"I'll go and see him."

"Selina, coming to the hospital is more than enough. You don't have to see him."

Selina was persistent.

Matthew eventually gave in.

He knew that Ludwik was not a mean person. Even if Selina went to see him, he wouldn't say anything that would upset her.

When they arrived at the ward, Selina stood there, not knowing what to say.

"Why are you standing there? Come and sit down," Ludwik greeted Selina.

Only then did she sit down.

She looked a little embarrassed.

She had insisted on seeing Ludwik in the beginning. But now that she was here, she was

tongue-tied.

"Matthew, I feel like eating some fruits. Could you go and get some for me?"

Matthew glanced at Ludwik.

Ludwik pretended to ignore Matthew's gaze.

"Selina, it won't be a problem for Matthew to go and buy me some fruits, right?"

Selina finally spoke.

She said to Matthew, "Uncle wants to eat some fruits. Why aren't you going to get him some?"

"I'll go then."

Before he left, he gazed deeply at Ludwik.

Ludwik naturally understood what it meant.

That son of his was afraid that he would make things difficult for Selina.

Ludwik let out a heavy sigh.

What had happened here?

Dylan had introduced this girl. He had thought she would be his granddaughter-in-law. He didn't expect her to become his daughter-in-law. That was fine. But it turned out that he had another daughter-in-law!

This gave Ludwik a headache.

Selina felt even more awkward after Matthew had

left.

She tried to make conversation. "Mr. Perry, do you want some water? I'll get some for you."

Ludwik looked at Selina. "When you first met me, both you and Dylan called me Grandpa."

Selina was silent.

Her face had turned red.

Ludwik wasn't intending to make things difficult for Selina. After all, it was in the past and had already been cleared up.

"Of course know that two people

who have feelings for each other don't necessarily have to be together. You were first with Dylan and now Matthew. There's nothing wrong with that. I can understand."

Selina bit her lip.

"Mr. Perry, thank you for understanding."

Ludwik sighed. "It took me some time to process it. I wasn't expecting something else to happen."

After finishing, Ludwik looked at Selina intently.

Selina knew what Ludwik meant.

She bit her lip even harder.

After a while, she said, "Mr. Perry, it's all my fault."

There was depth in Ludwik's eyes. "Selina, I don't think you're at fault. It's Matthew's fault for putting

you in this tough spot."

Selina was stunned.

She had thought that Ludwik was going to blame her. But that wasn't the case.

Selina felt a surge of emotion. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Ludwik continued, "Selina, the

reason Matthew is willing to go to

such lengths is because he values your life more than his own. The road ahead will be very difficult There's not much this old man can do either. I can only hope that the two of you can make it through."

Ludwik hoped they could make it through.

It was because he knew the road ahead would be rough.

Selina nodded gratefully.

After some time, Matthew came back.

He brought some fruits back.

Although Ludwik was only asking Matthew to go and buy some fruits as an excuse, he couldn't resist having some.

As the sky gradually darkened, Ludwik asked Matthew and Selina to head back.

"I still need to be observed in the hospital. There's no need for you to stay here with me," Ludwik said.

Selina was worried about leaving Ludwik alone in the hospital.

Ludwik was insistent. In the end, the two of them left.

They returned to the Whitlock family home.

In the car, Selina told Matthew that Cecilia had returned and told him the truth about why she'd left.

Matthew was conflicted. "Selina, she must have worried about us."

Selina sighed. "It's not just my mother that is worried. Isn't your father worried too? He was even admitted to the hospital. Matthew, don't you think I'm a mess? Everyone around us is worried for

us.

Matthew looked deeply into Selina's eyes. "Don't talk about yourself that way."

Selina's eyelashes fluttered.

"What did my father say to you after I left?"

Selina's eyes lit up. "He didn't say much. He encouraged me. I thought he would have blamed me."

Matthew was relieved.

"Selina, don't overthink this. We will definitely get through this."

She nodded.

Not long after Matthew left, Ludwik got down from the hospital bed.

A man came into the ward.

He was Ludwik's subordinate.

"Everything has been arranged perfectly," the man said respectfully.

"Do they know that I'm coming?"

"Yes, she is waiting for you."

Ludwik nodded. "Start the car and drive me there."

After half an hour, a car stopped outside Saoirse's villa.

Her security was expecting Ludwik. They immediately invited him in.

Meanwhile, Saoirse had waited for a long time.

When she saw Ludwik, she immediately stood up and greeted him. "Sir."

Logically speaking, since she and Matthew were married, she should have called him "Dad".

However, Saoirse knew that she and Matthew would only have a short marriage. So instead, she called Ludwik "Sir".
