My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 572

Perhaps, Tobias was right.

There was still a long way to go. Natalie would eventually understand Tobias's true feelings for her. Besides, they already had a son together: Hayden.

"Ow, my hand! No!" A desperate wail echoed in the room as a jet of blood spurted across the floor. Brayden's body convulsed as he collapsed onto the ground, crying in agony.

It was a horrible sight.

Beside him, Queenie covered her mouth with her hand, her face contorted in fear.

They had chopped off Brayden's arm right in front of her!

Brayden twitched in pain as he groaned on the floor and clutched the stump of his lost arm.

Queenie's legs buckled. She immediately kneeled in front of the men in black and pleaded, "Please let me go. I beg you. I'll even sell out my body to you in turns, and you can do whatever you want to me as long as you let me go."

Then, she jabbed a trembling finger at Brayden and stammered, "You only need to report back to Tobias, right? Just take my brother, he alone will do. Please, just let me go."

The men stood unwavering in front of her, their faces expressionless as they listened to her plea.

"Shut up. President Whitlock has already given us his orders. We are not allowed to let either of you go."

Queenie's face was drained of colour. Beads of cold sweat trickled down her forehead as she stared at them in horror.

The next day, when Natalie woke up, Selina was still sound asleep.

She remained in deep slumber even after Natalie had washed up. However, Natalie did not wake her up.

She vaguely recalled the things that Selina had said to her the night before. Natalie could not help but pity her.

Selina came from a prestigious family. She had the looks and the wealth, yet she had fallen in love with the wrong person.

Natalie decided to let her have some good sleep.

Before leaving the apartment, she covered Selina with another blanket.

Then, she went to YS Group to submit her resignation.

Now that she had remembered everything, she couldn't continue working there anymore.

While she was going through the formalities for her resignation, she met Lanny Xanthe, her excolleague.

When Lanny noticed that Natalie was here to tender her resignation, she was reminded of how Natalie hadn't been coming for work for so long. She was delighted. Lanny was certain that Natalie must have fallen out of Tobias's favor. Otherwise, why would she leave YS Group?

Finally, she showed Natalie her true colors.

She stopped Natalie when she was about to leave and snickered, "You're no princess, but a pauper. I guess President Whitlock doesn't want you anymore."

Natalie's face turned pale.

Not a princess but a pauper?

It seemed like she was destined to be a pauper after all. God created such a horrible misunderstanding to separate her and Tobias, traumatizing her so deeply that she could never be with him anymore.

She shot a glance at Lanny but said nothing. Instead, she walked past Lanny.

Lanny grinned smugly.

She believed that Natalie had indeed fallen out of Tobias's favor. After all, Natalie did not even dare to stand up for herself.

After Natalie left, the Human Resource manager called Benjamin.

"Mr. Simpson, Miss Godfrey has already completed the formalities for her resignation. Would you like to inform President Whitlock about this?" He asked cautiously.

Earlier that morning, Benjamin had informed the manager that Natalie might come to submit her resignation. He also told the manager to run her through all the necessary formalities if she really insisted. "Alright, thanks for informing me," Benjamin hung up the phone.

He was surprised.

Tobias had accurately predicted Natalie's actions.

Earlier, he had told Benjamin that she would come to the company to resign in a few days. It turned out to be true.

He immediately telephoned Tobias, "President Whitlock, Miss Godfrey filed her resignation this morning, and the manager did what he was told."

Tobias's breathing grew heavier.

"Noted," He replied after a moment, sounding quite weary and depressed.

He knew that Natalie would do this.

As a matter of fact, it didn't matter if she showed up at work or not. No one was going to force her to work, so her resignation did not make much difference to the company.

Yet, Tobias was sure that Natalie would resign.

All because she wanted to prove her point to him.

"Then should I continue watching over Remington, President Whitlock?" Benjamin asked.

Speaking of which, why did Remington suffer such a serious injury this time? Benjamin was amazed as to why he had not been discharged from hospital.

"Yes, you should," Tobias replied.

Benjamin almost passed out when he heard his reply.

Thankfully, Natalie was not in the hospital anymore, so he did not have to pretend to be close friends with Remington.

However, when he passed by Remington's ward, he heard someone whisper.

"Remington, why haven't you sent that man away yet?"

Benjamin paused in his tracks.

His instincts told him that the man in question must be him.

He peered into the ward and saw a man in a suit standing in front of Remington's bed.

The man was Remington's best friend, Yeason Lawson, who often came to visit him.

"Let him stay if he likes to," Remington's tone was as indifferent as usual.

Yeason sounded anxious as he asked, "Can't you tell that he likes you? He's obsessed with you, and has been watching you all day long!" Benjamin was shocked.

Judging by the silence, Remington was possibly startled as well.

Yeason continued to complain, "What did you do to attract such a pervert's attention? Just look at him! He's a creep!"

Remington cleared his throat in an attempt to cover up the awkwardness, "You're overthinking things."

"No, I'm not. In fact, you're the one who's too careless," Yeason insisted.

The corners of Remington's mouth twitched in utter speechlessness.

He wasn't someone who liked to explain too much.

Besides, the situation was complicated, and it was difficult to explain everything to his blockheaded friend. Thus, he remained silent.

"Why don't you say something?" Yeason was persistent.

Remington replied lazily, "Let him stay here if he wants to. We cannot control what he does anyway."

Yeason's expression was complicated as he groaned, "I wouldn't be so worried if you weren't injured. But look at you now! You're injured and in the hospital!" Remington flicked his eyes towards Yeason and asked, "What's there to worry about?"

"You see, he is a tall and strong man. What if he can't hold himself back and decides to force himself on you?" Yeason's face was dead serious as he spoke. After all, it was common and logically possible nowadays.

This time, Remington was truly speechless.

At the same time, Benjamin stared at the two men.

He clutched his stomach and fought the urge to throw up.

He liked women!

Besides, his heart was already taken by Yvonne!

On the other hand, Natalie felt lost after resigning.

What should she do next? What would her life be like in the future?

Before she lost her memory, she was a heartless person who was willing to do anything to survive in Agaphen City. But now, everything was different now she remembered everything. She suddenly wanted to leave Agaphen City.

However, she dismissed the idea after considering it for a moment. Where else could she go if she were to leave Agaphen City? Besides, the people she loved were still here.
