My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Chapter 56

This was the first time Natalie met a man who could smile so bewitchingly.

"Do you know me?" Natalie asked.

She was doubtful when she was lucky enough to receive a buffet vouched after answering a few simple questions. It turned out that it was all staged by this man.

But why did he go through all the trouble? Did he have a crush on her?

It was impossible. She did not believe that a good-looking man would be her secret admirer. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Do you want to know me now?" Remington did not answer her question.

Natalie was eager to find out the answer. "Well, nice to meet you."

Remington stretched out his hand and so did Natalie. They shook each other's hands to show that they were interested in getting to know each other.

"I heard from Larson that Tobias found a gorgeous wife, so I wanted to get to know you," Remington explained with a cheeky expression on his face.

Natalie suddenly understood.

"So you're Tobias' friend? If that's the case, it's very simple if you want to get to know me. What's with all the fuss?" Natalie asked in confusion. Unlike Tobias, who was usually cold and domineering, Remington was bright and humorous. The atmosphere was lively and relaxed when someone was in his company.

"I have nothing to do, so I found something to kill time. Otherwise, how can I kill my time meaningfully?" Remington answered matter- of-factly.

Natalie was utterly confused by this man's logic.

"Did you really marry Tobias?" Remington sized up Natalie seriously.

Natalie nodded.

"Can I ask you a serious question?" Remington put on a solemn face.

Natalie was a little nervous and she did not know what he wanted to know. She took a sip of water to conceal her nervousness and answered, "Well, go ahead."

"Is Tobias really that good in bed?"

Natalie almost spat out a mouthful of water.

"You are thinking too much. Tobias and I just agreed..." Natalie suddenly stopped talking.

D*mn it! She blurted it out carelessly.

Remington immediately caught the gist of things. "So you and Tobias are just a fake couple."

Natalie forced a smile and replied, "Please don't spread this."

He approached Natalie's ear and whispered, "Don't worry, I never expose other people's secrets." Natalie coughed and added, "Tobias' mother forced him to get married, so he staged a marriage with me to deal with his mother."

Remington was deep in thought.

"No, I don't think so." Remington shook his head and continued, "Tobias knows what he wants. It's impossible for him to pretend to marry you because of his mother."

"It's true," Natalie replied, "My mother wanted to sell me off to someone and Tobias was forced to get married, so we ended up together."

"Your mother was selling you off?" Remington was astounded by her remarks.

Remington did not believe that Tobias would just simply choose a woman because he was forced to get married.

Was Tobias trying to help Natalie because he was worried that she would be sold off, hence he pretended to be his husband?

Remington did not think this was the reason either. Tobias was not so generous.

He had his doubts and he could not help but scrutinized Natalie. As he studied her, he realized that something was wrong.

Natalie's eyes were very attractive. She was bashful with a trace of deadly charisma. She resembled someone he knew.

He would never discover it if he did not look carefully.

Cecilia probably did not notice what he did. Otherwise, she would never let Tobias marry Natalie.

Did Tobias marry Natalie because she resembled a certain someone?

Remington was lost in his thoughts.

"Tobias probably did not marry you because he was forced to. In fact, it should be something else," Remington said mysteriously.

"What would that be?" Natalie raised her eyebrows and asked curiously.

"I'll tell you if you come closer," Remington said beamingly.

Natalie inched closer to him.

"I'll tell you if you kiss me," Remington lowered his voice and uttered with a hint of temptation in his tone.

Natalie immediately retracted and scoffed, "Dream

on.

She was not so rash. How could she kiss a random guy just because she wanted to learn a little secret?

Remington blinked. "Well, that's too bad."

"If you can't tell me, then so be it," Natalie snorted.

She hid her curiosity carefully. What other reasons could Tobias have?

She was not someone rich, even if she did have the money, it would mean nothing to Tobias. After all, he was so wealthy that he did not need to look for a rich partner.

Was this about her looks? To be honest, Natalie was somewhat beautiful but Tobias could get his hands on any rare beauties easily. He would not be going after her looks too.

"You really don't want to know?" Remington squinted his eyes while trying to tempt Natalie.

His face was as cunning as a fox.

Natalie shook her head firmly. "I don't want to know."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "You look like a fox?"

Remington stiffened when he heard that.

Wasn't the word 'fox' used to describe women?

"I mean, you look good..." Natalie explained.

Remington accepted Natalie's comment calmly. "It's up to you if you think that I look like a fox."

"I'll call you Fox in the future, okay?" Natalie asked.

"Sure," Remington agreed without thinking.

Natalie could tell that this man was very straightforward! He was someone worth making friends with!

In Themyscira Apartment.

Tobias' sudden return sent Aunt Lee and the maid into a frenzy.

After all, Tobias never came back for lunch.

"Sir, what do you feel like having?" Aunt Lee asked smilingly.

She was sent by Tobias to take care of Natalie. Previously, she was responsible to care for Tobias.

"Where's Natalie?" Tobias asked.

"Miss Godfrey said she went out of a walk because she was tired of reading," Aunt Lee answered.

Tobias hummed in reply.

He checked the clock. It was lunch time but why had Natalie not returned yet?

"You can continue with your work. Don't worry about me," Tobias instructed Aunt Lee.

Following that, he called Natalie on his mobile phone.

"Where are you?" Tobias asked.

Natalie felt a little awkward when she suddenly received a phone call from Tobias. She was chatting happily with Remington and she got used to his gentle and sunny disposition. On the other hand, Tobias's voice was very clear and deep.

"I'm with your..." Natalie started to explain but she noticed Remington waving his hands at her.

"I'm having a buffet," Natalie replied.

"A buffet?" Tobias' tone became a little higher.

"Yeah," Natalie answered joyfully, "The food here is delicious. There are salmon, soft drinks, fries and so on."

There were soft drinks and fries. Tobias' brows twitched as he listened.

"Stop eating those and come back now." Tobias hung up the phone upon finishing.

Natalie sensed that something was wrong after Tobias suddenly hung up the phone. She told Remington, "Mr. Fox, I'm sorry but I have to go back now." "Your husband is urging you to go home?" Remington raised his eyebrow and a suggestive smile was playing on his lips.

Natalie blushed and replied, "Stop it. We're just pretending to be married."

The corner of Remington's lips curled and he winked at Natalie, implying that he understood.
