My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

It was all in her head that Tobias' placid tone made her uneasy.

Tobias was back to his normal self again. The man who would speak indifferently but teased her occasionally.

Natalie sighed but this was also a good turn of events. At least, she would not have any further expectations.

She did not like having expectations because Tobias was like the sun that she could never touch. There was no point for her to have any sort of expectations.

After hanging up the phone, Benjamin came over and asked, "Mr. Whitlock, shall we continue the meeting?"

Tobias nodded and replied, "Let's continue."

Tobias was in a meeting when Natalie called. He paused the meeting in order to answer her call.

Benjamin was a little curious. Who was the one on the other side of the call? Mr. Whitlock, who was always extremely serious in work, even paused the meeting to take the call.

Later that night, Aunt Lee brought Natalie another bowl of soup and said, "Miss Godfrey, here's some soup. I have prepared some nutritious soup for you. I have added some beef, eggs..." Natalie replied with a bitter face, "Aunt Lee, I've gained a lot of weight."

In truth, when Natalie was still living with the Godfrey family, she was really envious of wealthy people who could spend their days enjoying delicacies. After all, she even felt that having a meal in KFC was an extremely luxurious thing.

However, Natalie was no longer excited when she was actually living the life she once envied.

Her weight was going up day by day. She felt that her flat belly was going to be inflated soon.

"Miss Godfrey, you'll definitely gain some weight during pregnancy." Ever since Tobias informed Aunt Lee to take care of Natalie because she might be pregnant, Aunt Lee abandoned the possibility that Natalie might only be pregnant. Instead, she firmly believed that Natalie must be pregnant.

Natalie suddenly recalled something after hearing Aunt Lee's words!

Natalie put down the bowl and rushed to the bathroom.

Aunt Lee did not know what was going on.

After a while, Natalie came back looking pale.

"It's over, it's over." Natalie suddenly collapsed on the sofa.

"Miss Godfrey, what's wrong? Please don't scare me." Aunt Lee was shocked when she noticed Natalie's look.

"Aunt Lee, I... I might really be pregnant." Natalie touched her abdomen and her brilliant eyes darkened. Aunt Lee's eyes suddenly lit up. "Miss Godfrey, this is a good thing. This..."

She rubbed her hands excitedly and did not know how to express her excitement.

She had been a housekeeper for many years and encountered many rich women who did not treat a servant like an equal human being.

Tobias hired her to take care of Natalie. It was her first time meeting a wealthy young mistress that was so kind to a servant.

Aunt Lee liked Natalie very much, hence she was genuinely happy for Natalie when she knew that Natalie was pregnant.

"Miss Godfrey, I'll go and make some more delicious food. Pregnant women are always hungry." Aunt Lee rushed to the kitchen again excitedly.

For a long time, Natalie's mind was blank.

Finally, she regained her strength and thought about what she should do.

She was just suspecting it when she mentioned that she might be pregnant. Flowever, after a while, she concluded that it was impossible for that to happen.

She did not take this matter too seriously either.

Flowever, she realized that her period was late when she went to the bathroom earlier. It never happened this way.

She was almost sure that there was a great possibility that she was pregnant. Natalie's heart contracted.

She was really pregnant. What should she do?

She once asked Tobias the same question and his answer gave her the impression that he was really a good man.

However, this was not what she wanted. It was not bad to let Tobias take care of her for the rest of her life but it would be meaningless if they did not share any feelings for each other. Tobias was out of her league. He was such an outstanding man and a lot of rich young ladies and outstanding women would go crazy for him. There was no way he would fall for her. That was absolutely impossible.

Were they going to be like this for the rest of their lives for the sake of a child?

She pretended to be Tobias' wife because Madison left them no choice.

Moreover, Natalie's idea about it was very simple. They were just pretending to be married, hence the both of them did not need to fall for each other.

When Tobias found an excellent woman, Natalie would leave and she believed that it would not take too long.

After all, Tobias was an outstanding man and there were countless women after him.

However, things would get complicated if she was pregnant. They were no longer just a couple bound by an agreement. Having a child would mean a real marriage. It would require both of them to have feelings for each other in order to stay together for the rest of their lives.

Putting aside the fact that she was not confident that Tobias would fall for her, a marriage should be formed between two individuals with similar backgrounds. There was too much of a gap between Tobias and her!

Natalie would not feel happy even if they were together.

Despair grew in her heart as she thought about it.

Meanwhile, Aunt Lee placed a fish pie on the table. In contrast with Natalie's gloomy look, Aunt Lee was so thrilled, as if she was the one who was pregnant. "Miss Godfrey, I just baked a fish pie for you. You should eat more fish, so your baby could get more DHA."

Natalie was not in the mood. "Aunt Lee, I'm going to sleep now. Keep the pie for yourself."

Natalie went upstairs after finishing.

Natalie did not sleep well that night and her mind was in a mess.

The next day, Natalie woke up with bloodshot eyes because she did not sleep well.

After changing her clothes and going downstairs, she was shocked to find that the table was covered with food.

There was apple pie, milk, soybean milk, soup, nuts, fruits, cookies, cakes...

The corner of Natalie's mouth twitched and she asked, "Aunt Lee, are these for me?" "Of course, Miss Godfrey. You'd better eat more since you're pregnant."

Natalie's heart skipped a beat upon hearing the word 'pregnant'. Initially, she was not in the mood to eat anything and Aunt Lee's remarks made her lose her appetite. She forced herself to drink some milk before departing to class.

Natalie was in a daze the whole morning. At noon, she was dragged out of the classroom by Sebastian and Yvonne.

"Natalie, let's talk," Yvonne declared very seriously.

Upon hearing Yvonne's words, Natalie suddenly had an impulse to tell them her secret.

She dragged Yvonne and said, "I happen to have something to tell you too. Follow me to the woods now."

The woods was a remote spot in Agaphen University. It was usually vacant with only a few people frequenting the place.

"Sebastian, you don't need to come with us," Natalie added. After all, it was difficult to discuss the topic of pregnancy with a man.

When they arrived at the woods, Natalie wanted to say 'Tobias' but she swallowed it back on second thought.

Yvonne was under the impression that Natalie was delusional over Tobias. If Natalie were to say that she was pregnant with Tobias' child, Yvonne would probably drag her to a psychiatric hospital immediately. "Yvonne, what do you think a woman should do if she's pregnant?" Natalie asked carefully after giving her words some thought.

"Pregnant?" Yvonne's eyes widened. "Natalie, are you going to tell me that you're pregnant with Tobias' child?"

Natalie's heart skipped a beat as Yvonne's guess was right on the mark.

"It's not that." She shook her head.

Yvonne heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Natalie was not completely crazy yet.

"Of course the woman should just give birth to the baby. It's normal to give birth to a child after getting married too."
