My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) -
Chapter 1432
Matthew's eyes were full of rage at the mention of Reid.
After a while, he said, "If I'm not mistaken, he is heading to Agaphen City,"
Everything suddenly made sense to Selina.
If Reid went to Agaphen City, he was likely to be caught by Matthew and had nowhere to hide. He went to Agaphen City to seek Ludwik's protection.
Selina looked into Matthew's eyes. "Matthew, promise me that even if Reid pleads with your father, you will never let him off the hook."
"I promise." Matthew did not hesitate when he answered, "I've promised you that I will definitely give you a proper explanation."
"I have some matters that I must ask Reid." Selina words were suddenly stuck in her throat.
She remembered what Caroline had said.
Caroline said that Lothar was dead.
Lothar was beaten to death by Reid and thrown into the sea.
Selina felt that Caroline wasn't lying. After all, at that moment, she was prepared to face death herself.
All of a sudden, Selina felt cold. She was just wearing a thin layer of clothes. Her teeth chattered as she was enveloped by the unforgiving cold.
She was so cold that she could hardly think.
Not only did she want to replace out about Lothar's matters but she also wanted to ask about her baby. There were so many unanswered questions overwhelming her that she couldn't breathe. Selina clenched her hands so tightly that her fingers were digging into her palms. The pain made her forget about the coldness surrounding her.
Matthew noticed that Selina was trembling.
He sat up and hugged Selina. "Don't think too much about Lothar. Think about your baby. Promise me that you won't worry about Lothar for our baby's sake, okay?"
Selina stared blankly at Matthew.
The baby in her belly.
What would happen if Matthew knew that their child could no longer live?
This thought blew up in her ears and mind. Selina felt as if her whole being was shattered into broken pieces.
After a long time, she gently nodded. "I promise."
Matthew kissed her cheek and said lovingly, "My girl is the strongest,"
After dinner, Matthew drove Selina back.
Along the way, Selina kept on staring at Matthew's side profile.
Matthew's side profile was definitely good looking. His features were sharp, as he had a tall nose and the fullness of his lips were just fitting.
The more Selina stared at him, the more her heart tightened.
She felt that even after 20 years, Matthew would probably still be charming.
As for her.
Selina touched her face with fear.
Caroline told her that she would age by ten years as each day passed. Very soon, she would be an old lady walking towards death. Selina felt terrified just thinking about it.
If she were to walk or stand next to Matthew with her face full of wrinkles and saggy skin, just how scary would that be?
No, she could not allow such a thing to happen.
Selina clenched her hands tightly into fists as she put them on her lap.
She absolutely could not let that happen.
How could she let her beloved man see her ugly appearance!
The next day soon arrived.
Tobias came out of the conference room.
As soon as he walked out, his assistant greeted him, "Mr. Whitlock, Miss Whitlock has been waiting in your office for a long time,"
Shock flashed across Tobias's eyes.
Was Selina here?
He walked quickly towards his office.
Selina really was in his office. She was sitting on the sofa.
She sat there with a blank look on her face, as if she was far away from the world.
"Selina," Tobias called out.
She lifted her head.
Tobias walked over and patted Selina's head. "What are you thinking about? You look like a fool." Selina touched her head, and then her lips moved. "Tobias, I have something important to tell you."
"Yes?" Tobias sat on the sofa.
Selina eyed her own belly. She tried to control the trembling in her voice, but she still sounded sad when she spoke, "The child in my belly may not last,"
Tobias's brows twisted together. "Did you have a fight with Matthew again? Didn't I tell you back then that you are going to be a mother, so why are you still so immature?"
There was a flash of despair in
Selina's eyes. "Tobias, Matthew and I are doing well. I want to live a happy life with him, but my life is slipping away before my eyes, and sois my baby. Tobias, I'm doomed
Tobias finally realized the importance of what Selina was saying.
He gazed deeply into Selina's eyes and asked, "What happened?"
Selina sat by the sofa and told Tobias everything that happened. Her expression was calm but her voice was on the verge of breaking when she spoke.
The moment she finished, Tobias's expression changed.
Tobias was different from Selina.
Selina grew
up in the US ever since
she was young and it was a given
that she didn't believe anything
about the Witch Clan and the
mystical events that surrounded it. It was not surprising that she started to believe in this whole thing after everything that was said to her came true.
Plus, Tobias had a wide social circle and met many different people. He knew lots of things including stories about the Witch Clan.
"That woman actually cursed you?" Tobias's tone was one of anger and coldness. He sounded like an impending raging storm on a cold day.
Selina said hopelessly, "Yes, she placed a spell on me and now she's dead. She destroyed the cure and murdered the woman who created it. I am doomed. Nobody can save me,"
"Stop it. I won't allow you to say something like that!" Tobias stood up abruptly. "I'll replace someone. I'll think of a way."
After a pause, he said, "Does Matthew know? Let him replace someone who knows about this. There must be a way,"
"Tobias, you are not allowed to tell him!" Selina had a big reaction. "You
can't tell him. If he can manage to
replace someone who knows how to treat me,
so can you. If you cout
of ideas or ways, so will he.
tell him everything that has
happened, I'll leave immediately."
Tobias suppressed his mood and said in a soft voice, "Alright, I won't tell Matthew. Just rest for these few days. Wait until I can replace someone to cure you,"
Two days passed in a blink of an eye.
Over the past two days, Selina was exceptionally anxious and nervous.
Although she went to look for her brother desperately and almost hopelessly, she still had some hope.
She knew how powerful Tobias was. She hoped and prayed that he would know or replace someone who can cure her.
She placed all her hopes on Tobias.
That night, Erine cooked some nutritious food for the baby.
When she brought Selina the food, she said, "Miss Whitlock, you should eat more. This is good for the baby in your belly. You must finish everything,"
