My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Yesseca gulped and said, "Preslie... President, president..."

She kept muttering the word president over and over again.

Preslie was very confused.

She thought she figured out what Yesseca was trying to say. "Yesseca, are you saying that the president's coming to our shopping mall? That's impossible. We might not be half bad, but it's definitely not good enough for the president."

Yesseca waved her hands. "That's not what I meant."

"Then what do you mean?" Preslie asked.

Yesseca took a deep breath. "Preslie, imagine if someone you've known for a very long time was suddenly revealed to be the president, how would you feel?"

She was finally able to speak.

Preslie was quiet for a moment.

She then said, "That's just a fantasy. How could someone like us be friends with the president? We sell clothes in a mall. If all of us can be friends with the president, then he wouldn't be the president."

Yesseca's eyelashes trembled violently.

Her thoughts exactly!

Yet there was no denying that Tremaine really was the president.

Selina would not lie to her!

"Then again, you have a rich and handsome boyfriend, right? Maybe you'll be able to meet the president one day, thanks to him. Either way, it's impossible for people like us to meet the president," Preslie continued.

"I'm not talking about the president of our country," Yesseca muttered. "He's the president of another country."

Preslie laughed. "What difference does that make? They are both presidents of their own countries, both are equally out of our reach. But..." Preslie then looked at Yesseca. "What's wrong with you today? Why do you keep talking about the president?"

Yesseca opened her mouth.

She wanted to tell Preslie that Tremaine was the president of Nashaland.

Preslie was her good friend, after all. She had nothing to hide from her.

She just was not sure whether Preslie would

believe her.

On top of that, her mind was a mess at the moment. She was unable to sort herself out at the moment, let alone telling someone else about it. Considering this, Yesseca decided not to tell her.

She felt it best to keep it to herself for the time being.

Yesseca looked at her and said, "Preslie, could you go back to your counter for now? I'm kind of in a mess right now. I need to be alone." Preslie was quiet.

This was the first time Yesseca had ever told her that she was not in the mood to chat and even asked her to leave.

Preslie felt like there was definitely something going on with Yesseca.

However, since Yesseca had said so, Preslie could only put aside all her questions. She took out some chocolates from her pocket. "I'll get going, then. I'll come to see you later. Oh, someone gave me these chocolates. They're pretty tasty."

Yesseca nodded.

Once Preslie had left, Yesseca's gaze fell on the chocolates.

She suddenly remembered the chocolates that Tremaine had given to her the other night.

Would the president of a country personally travel all the way just to visit her and give her chocolates?

It was not likely.

He was the president. How could he do things that a regular man would do?

Yesseca buried her head in her hands.

Goodness! Her mind was in such a mess, it felt like it was going to explode.

Selina called Matthew.

She told Matthew that Tremaine had ulterior motives.

She also added that he had lied to Yesseca and told her that he was the personal bodyguard of the president of Nashaland.

Matthew suddenly asked, "Why would he lie to Yesseca like that?"

Selina did not know either and could only guess. "Maybe he just wanted to have some fun with Yesseca but was afraid that people would find out, so he lied!"

Matthew was silent.

He sighed helplessly.

Selina's idea was much too ridiculous to be taken seriously.

He did not intend to argue with Selina, though.

He knew that Selina was completely opposed to Tremaine at the moment, and he would only be making things worse by defending him.

Matthew was brave enough to stare down the barrel of a loaded gun.

But he would not dare to challenge Selina.

He pampered her so much and treated her like a treasure. How could he possibly anger her?

Suddenly, Matthew heard a loud noise over the phone.

He then asked, "Are you out right now?"

"Yeah. I'm having some coffee. I just went to see Yesseca..."

She had wandered around the shopping mall for a while before losing interest. Figuring that Yesseca would not be returning to her senses so soon, she decided to get some coffee.

Selina chatted for quite some time.

Matthew felt even more helpless.

It was one thing to play with the idea of Kylin and Yesseca getting married, but he did not expect Selina to actually take action.

"Selina, it's much too soon. I really don't think you should do this," Matthew said.

"Tell me, is Kylin going to commit to Yesseca? Will he be with her forever?" Selina asked.

Without hesitating, Matthew replied,

"The both of them take their

e

relationship very seriously. Since they are already dating, they should be ready to be together for their entire lifetime."

"Exactly!" Selina raised her voice. "Since they'll have to get married sooner or later, it would be better to get married as soon as possible. That's why they should just get married already."

Matthew was quiet.

He was about to say something until he heard Selina make a sound like she was about to throw up.

Matthew felt his heart jump out of his throat. "What's wrong?"

Selina muttered, "Why do I feel like throwing up again? I've been feeling nauseous a lot recently."

Matthew was taken aback for a moment before his breathing sped up. "Are you pregnant?"

Selina was quiet.

She subconsciously said, "It shouldn't have happened so soon. It hasn't been that long since I gave birth. I can't possibly be pregnant so soon...

right?"

Logically speaking, she had not been

breastfeeding and her menstrual

cycle was back to normal, so it was

possible for her to be pregnant. However, she did not think it would happen so soon.

Matthew however, did not feel the same.

He asked, "Where are you now?"

Selina told him where she was.

Matthew said, "Wait for me. I'll be right there."

Selina waited for him quietly.

Ten minutes later, Matthew found Selina.

Selina was stunned. "You actually came. You're taking this way too seriously."

Matthew held her hand. "I have to be extra cautious for you. I've already booked you an appointment at the hospital. I'm taking you over for a check

up right now."Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Selina's eyes widened. "You can't be serious."

Matthew spoke firmly. "Of course I'm serious. I wouldn't joke around about something like this."

"But it hasn't been that long since my last pregnancy. I won't get pregnant again so soon."

"Why not?" Matthew looked deeply into her eyes, "We do it very often."
