My Heart only Beats for You

"But I'm not aging at a normal speed! You'll still look young when I don't." "If we age at the sspeed, will it dispel all your fears?" Matthew stared into Selina's eyes.

"Of course!" She blurted out, "Of course, I'll feel better if we both age. That's how it should be. But how can I face you now, Matthew?" Then, she took a deep breath and added, "Matthew, if you know what's best for me, you would leave me. I don't want to show you this side of me. I have my pride. Please letleave this world dignified." The flicker of emotions in his eyes was difficult to understand. "Okay, I promise. You can have your pride. I will leave you tomorrow." After hearing what he said, she was finally relieved.

At least he would not see her at her worst.

"Promisethat you will get over my death and live your own life," she added.

However, he did not agree.

"Selina, let's spend the rest of today together. We'll talk about these things later." He brushed past her question.

She bit her lip and said nothing.

They spent the rest of the day like how they always did. He cooked for her, and they talked to each other.

She felt like she was in a trance.

It even gave her ssort of impression.

Could it be that nothing had happened? And this was just a dream she was in? Caroline had never poisoned her, and she would not be dying anytsoon? Otherwise, how could be so in peace when spending twith him? But when she accidentally saw her gray hair in the mirror, she suddenly realized that everything was real.

The bitterness cback to her.

He already promised her he would leave the next day.

It was good that they would spend the last moment together like this.

In the evening, she experienced the most lively meal she had since coming to this seaside villa.

Because Natalie, Tobias, and Matthew were all with her.

Matthew prepared the dinner himself and cooked a table full of dishes.

He even prepared sred wine.

Under what seemed to be Matthew's influence, Tobias and Natalie were both wearing gentle expressions. They were not as in pain as they were before. Therefore, even she was infected by the great atmosphere.

She forgot that she had been poisoned. At spoint, she was even regretting her decision.

If she had known it would be like this, she would never have concealed it from Matthew.

It turned out that he wasn't that sad to the point he would wail. Instead, everything was peaceful.

He even promised that he would not stay until she was at her ugliest.

She felt her mood lifted from the meal.

No one stopped her when she downed one glass after another of red wine.

In the end, she was tipsy from the alcohol and her vision blurred.

She felt Matthew approaching her and lifted her.

Losing her balance, she circled her arms around his neck.

She seemed to remember that he had planted a kiss on the forehead.

Then, he laid her on the soft bed and hugged her.

She couldn't remember anything after that.

All she did remember was the feeling of being held tightly, and she could hardly breathe.

He whispered into her ear, "Selina, I will be with you forever and always." She opened her mouth.

She wanted to tell him that he could not stay with her forever.

After all, he promised that he would leave the next day.

However, she was too drunk to say a thing.

Lothar went to the Perry family and the Whitlock family. After waiting a day at both houses, he did not find anyone he was looking for. The servant of the Perry family said that no one knew where Matthew was.

And, the servants of the Whitlock family said that Selina was nowhere to be found too. Even Tobias and Natalie were not in too.

Lothar could not remember how he had returned to Essie's house.

After going back, he fell on the sofa as if he had lost his mind and did not move.

Essie poured a cup of water for him. "Have swater." However, he did not take it.

He looked at her absent-mindedly. "I went to look for her today, but I cback empty-handed. What do you think I should do?" She said, "What's the use of going there? Even if you find her, you can't save her. She's totally helpless. You're wasting your time." Right then, he was triggered, "That's impossible. Her family is powerful. There must be a way." "It's useless even if you have power. She even cto me. She wouldn't have asked for a stranger's help if she had no choice!" She cut off his hope.

He froze.

After a while, he suddenly jumped up. Because he was too angry, his face was a little distorted. "It was Reid. It must be Reid. It must be him who did it. Otherwise, why would Selina end up poisoned?!" When he was about to rush out of the door, she stopped him.

"Lothar, it's late. Where do you think you're going?!" she shouted.

His eyes were red from anger as he said, "I'm going to look for Reid Perry.

m I have to seek revenge. He must be the one who caused all this. He must be the one who caused this to Selina!"

"Calm down, Lothar!" she yelled. "I don't know what's going on, but m where are you planning to get your revenge this late at night? Do you even have a plan?! Calm down first! You can't rush into this!" Her words were like a basin of cold water pouring on his head.

He suppressed his impulse after hearing her words.

She added, "Plus, it's useless to find that Reid guy. I've told you there is no cure for her. Even if you find him, she will die! " The word "die" caused Lothar's entire body to tremble.

He stared at Essie and said, "Is there really no way? It can't be!" "There's really no other way," she said.

All of a sudden, he squatted down on the ground. He wrapped his arms around his head as he wailed.

She was a little sad to see him like this.

She did not know exactly what relationship he had with Selina, but it must be quite deep, judging from his actions.

She knew that she should try to persuade him.

But when she saw how sad he was for sother woman, she felt an surge of bitterness in her heart. She couldn't bring herself to say any words of persuasion. After an unknown period.

Lothar finally stood up.

He knelt in front of Essie.

She was startled.

Quickly she helped him up. "Why are you kneeling in front of me? Get up!" However, he refused to get up.

He looked at her and begged, "I know you have a way. You must! You can definitely save Selina. I beg you. Please, think of a way. Anything! Something!" Ashburn X
