My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 897

The servant said with a wry smile, "Mr. Perry, Mr. Matthew said that hitting him would not make him any less handsome, so there would be no point to it." Ludwik was rendered speechless for a moment.

He slammed the table and huffed, "Tell him, if he doesn't come to eat, I'll go on a hunger strike. I'll show him that I can go on a hunger strike!"

A minute later, the servant arrived again.

"Mr. Perry, Mr. Matthew said that you've gotten fatter based on the physical examination you had last time. It'll be a good time to lose weight if you don't eat."

Ludwik was rendered speechless again.

Selina, on the other end of the table, was stupefied.

Matthew, whom she had interacted with, had always been calm like spring. She had never known that this man had such a humorous side to him to the point that he could even laugh at his own father. Moreover, Ludwik, the old man, looked very interesting. He didn't look like an elder at all but more like a child.

Selina had heard this saying before, which was that having an elder at home was like having a treasure.

At that time, Selina always felt that this was nonsense. If an elder was at home, she would have to hear endless nagging, just like how Peter would always nag at her.

However, after seeing Ludwik, she knew that this saying was right.

Just when everyone thought that Matthew would not come, he came down.

He was wearing a beige V-neck sweater. It made him looked gentle and elegant.

After sitting down, he said lightly, "Dad, if you want to lose weight, you don't need to cut down on your meals. You just have to eat less meat."

After saying that, he replaced the braised pork in front of Ludwik's eyes with stir-fried broccoli.

Ludwik:"...."

He watched helplessly as Matthew took away his braised pork.

His favorite dish was braised pork!

Ludwik's heart was filled with regret. If he had known this earlier, he wouldn't have asked Matthew to come down and have dinner. Halfway through the meal, Ludwik looked up as if he had thought of something.

He said to Selina, "Selina, this person here is Dylan's uncle."

Selina,

Her expression looked awkward, "Grandpa, I know."

Ludwik continued, "You can also call him Matthew."

Selina,

When she was in a dilemma, Matthew opened his mouth and said lightly, "It's fine. I don't need such an old niece."

Ludwik said with a smile, "Selina, look at this son of mine. Do you think he's handsome?"

Selina,"..."

Why would Ludwik ask her such a question?

Selina had to brace herself to say, "Yes."

"How handsome is he?" Ludwik was very persistent.

Selina,"..."

She said dryly, "He's very, very handsome."

Matthew's eyes deepened a little because of Selina's words.

Ludwik smiled, "Selina, why can't my son replace a girlfriend even though he's so handsome? How is he still single?"

Selina's heart skipped a beat.

She thought to herself, Ludwik couldn't possibly know anything, could he?

However, it was fortunate that Ludwik's next words dispelled the doubts in Selina's heart.

He said with a smile, "Selina, do you have any beautiful girls around you who can be introduced to Matthew? I really want to have a grandson to the point that I might go crazy." Selina,"..."

Her eyelashes trembled.

She did introduce someone to him before, but Matthew rejected.

On the other side, Matthew opened his mouth and said lightly, "Dad, let's just eat properly. Don't make it difficult for others."

The expression in his eyes deepened as he spoke as if all his emotions had been sealed within, his eyes pitch-black like ink.

The Perry family was open-minded,

so the relationship between

Matthew and Ludwik was also extremely close. Usually, Matthew would jokingly call Ludwik "old man". However, if he called Ludwik "Dad", that meant that he was being extra serious.

Upon hearing his son's words, Ludwik had no choice but to remain silent.

Due to Ludwik's silence, the dinner was then finished in an extremely silent atmosphere.

After the dinner was over, Dylan suggested leaving earlier.

Ludwik handed Dylan a gold card.

Dylan rejected the offer without thinking.

He said in a rigid tone, "Grandpa, I never wanted these money- related things. I've never wanted them and I still don't want them."

Ludwik had a helpless expression on his face.

His grandson was just too stubborn, extremely stubborn.

Ludwik slowly sighed. "How is your mother?"

A hint of emotion flashed in Dylan's eyes.

"She's alright," he said.

Ludwik nodded. "That's good to hear."

He paused then carefully asked, "And your father, is he still trying to make things difficult for you?"

Dylan's reaction was so intense. He spat angrily, close to shouting, "He's not my father, and he'll never be!" Ludwik's brows knitted tightly together.

Judging from Dylan's reaction, he knew that Reid must have made things difficult for those two.

In the end, Reid still couldn't let go of what had happened that year.

"That brat, I'll definitely talk to him properly some other day!" there was a hint of displeasure in Ludwik's tone.

"Old man, you can't do anything with Reid." Matthew suddenly said coldly beside him.

Ludwik's old face turned red because Matthew had seen through him.

Because of that event in the past, Reid was like an unusual existence in the Perry family. He was not in harmony with Matthew and his father. Therefore, even Ludwik had no way to deal with his own son.

Selina was stunned when she heard the conversation between Matthew and Ludwik.

It seemed that Dylan really didn't get

along well with his so-called father,

Reid. Plus, it looked like both

Matthew and Ludwik don't get along

well with Reid either.

"Grandpa, Matthew, I'm leaving."

It seemed that Dylan didn't want to discuss the topic of Reid any further, so he left together with

Selina.

Ludwik originally wanted to stop Dylan, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said nothing. Matthew's deep gaze fell on Selina's slender back, unable to shift his gaze from her for a long time. Dylan brought Selina out of the Perry family's villa.

Along the way, he was breathing heavily.

Even if he didn't say anything, standing by his side, Selina could feel Dylan's intense rage.

When he'd walked in front of a big tree, Dylan suddenly stopped.

The next second, he did something that Selina wouldn't have expected.

He raised his fist directly and gave the tree a hard punch.

"Bang!"

The leaves scattered down in a flurry due to the strength of Dylan's first.

"Dylan, are you crazy?" Selina cried in shock, hurriedly pulling Dylan away. "Are you in pain?"

Dylan's eyes were filled with

bloodshot and endless mockery,dike

a cold glint that could seal one's

throat. "He's not my father. I don't have a father. He's never been my father. He's a downright devil!"

Looking at Dylan's hateful expression, Selina was completely stunned.

Selina went back very late and didn't leave until Dylan had calmed down.

That night, Selina also learnt of one thing.

It turned out that the man named Reid was Dylan's father and Matthew's brother. Dylan hated him to the core.

Selina didn't know how it had turned out like this.

How could anyone hate their own father this much?
