My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

"Yes," Tobias replied.

Natalie mulled it over. She should just accept his kindness and let him buy a phone for her.

Previously, she rejected Tobias when he offered to buy her a new phone because she was not sure whether she could find her mobile phone back. She wanted to avoid wasting money but she needed to replace it since she lost it.

Tobias drove her to an electronic store.

The electronic store did not look like any other electronic store that Natalie visited prior to that. The interior was very luxurious and everything looked fancy.

"How about this one?" Tobias pointed to a mobile phone on the counter.

Natalie checked the price and she almost fainted.

She used to think that Apple had the most expensive mobile phone. However, they were nothing in front of these mobile phones. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

"No, no," Natalie shook her head without thinking and replied, "It's too expensive."

"The price is not a problem," Tobias answered flatly.

Well, money was indeed never a problem to a wealthy guy like him.

"Could you get me a cheaper phone?" Natalie asked the shop assistant. "Miss, what price range are you looking for?"

"The cheapest one," Natalie replied without hesitation.

Tobias raised his eyebrow discreetly.

The shop assistant led Natalie to a counter where Apple mobile phones were displayed. The shop assistant introduced, "These are the cheapest mobile phones in our store."

Natalie was shocked.

Apple mobile phones were the cheapest? She always thought that Apple was an expensive brand.

"Oh my god, what kind of electronic store is this?" She thought.

"Can we go to another store?" Natalie asked weakly.

Natalie was from a poor family. It would not suit her if she owned an Apple mobile phone.

"Just get this," Tobias replied.

Originally, he wanted to buy the most expensive phone for Natalie. However, it occurred to him that Natalie did not like to show off, therefore he decided to let her pick.

Tobias thought that owning an Apple mobile phone was keeping a low profile.

The shop assistant handed the latest Apple mobile phone to Natalie.

Natalie felt like the mobile phone was burning a hole in her palm. This was too expensive for a poor girl like her.

"Actually, I miss my mobile phone," Natalie suddenly pointed out on the way back to Themyscira Apartment.

"It's the first mobile phone I've ever owned. It's really great. It's better than this Apple phone or that expensive phone just now."

"What brand is that?" Tobias' gaze was fixated on the road ahead.

"It's Flysky."

Tobias did not know what to say.

"Is it a pirated phone that can play 'Love Dealer'?" Natalie was embarrassed.

"No, it's just a normal affordable mobile phone," Natalie replied.

Tobias flashed Natalie a knowing look.

"How did you lose such a good mobile phone?"

"I didn't lose it!" Natalie went ballistic at the mention of her old mobile phone. "It was thrown away by a horrible woman!"

Tobias raised his eyebrow and asked, "Who threw away your phone?"

"It's that stupid Queenie!"

"Do you need me to help you?" Tobias asked.

He would not act impulsively like a hot- blooded young man. Instead, he chose to respect Natalie and asked her for her opinion.

"No!" Natalie raised her small fist. "This is a war between two women."

Back then, Tobias happened to bump into Queenie when they were in the shopping mall. Therefore, Natalie did not mind when Tobias embarrassed Queenie on the spot.

However, Natalie felt that there was no need for him to avenge her for what happened.

Tobias did not speak. He respected Natalie's decision.

Besides, he knew that Natalie was not a weak girl. She would not lose in a girl's fight.

After driving back to Themyscira Apartment, Tobias immediately continued his work.

Natalie spotted Tobias sitting in front of his laptop and his mouse would constantly hover over different icons. He was studying the data and various reports on his laptop.

She could not understand the complicated data and jargon.

Her language skills were good but the professional jargon printed on Tobias' laptop was not something that any ordinary person would understand.

"Tobias, what's your educational background? How can you understand those terms?" Natalie asked curiously.

"I have a doctorate," Tobias replied placidly without even raising his head.

Natalie thought, "Sure enough, he's a genius if he has a doctorate."

He was definitely favored by God. He was handsome and came from a good family. To top it off, he was really smart too!

Sometimes, it made her blood boil when she compared herself to him.

Natalie went to the cloakroom and looked around.

The cloakroom was like a magical wonderland to her.

Natalie picked up a pair of high- heeled shoes. It was shining brilliantly.

Too bad, Tobias gave these to her and she did not buy any of them. That even prompted Yvonne to think that she was delusional.

Natalie vowed that she would get a huge cloakroom when she found a good job in the future. She would fill it with a bunch of expensive stuff and she would wear branded clothes every single day. That would be the best thing ever!

On second thought, she felt that it was impossible to realize her dreams. Even if she found a good job, she would just be a white-collar employee.

How much money could a white-collar employee possibly earn?

Natalie felt a little sad at the thought of that.

She closed the door to the cloakroom carefully. She noticed Tobias as soon as she came out.

"Weren't you working just now?" Natalie was shocked.

"Like you said, just now." Tobias raised an eyebrow.

"I can see that you were enjoying yourself inside," Tobias asked frankly, "Do you like what I gave you?"

Natalie looked like someone just exposed her secrets. She replied in embarrassment, "Yeah, I like it. There's no woman who would turn down beautiful clothes, bags, and shoes."

"Then why don't you wear them? You told me earlier that you had no mood to dress up because you thought you were pregnant. What about now?"

Natalie fumbled with her fingers and muttered, "I always feel like I'll be pretending to be someone I'm not if I wear them."

Tobias was at a loss for words.

It was the first time he heard something like that.

"I gave them to you, so it's yours now. Why do you think that you're pretending to be someone you're not?"

"Well, it just feels that way." Natalie did not know how to describe her feelings. "Although you gave them to me, I still feel a little uneasy because I didn't buy them myself."

She paused for a moment and continued, "Maybe I always think that having a cloakroom is just a dream. A dream will always remain a dream. It's not real."

"Natalie, you have really low self-esteem." Tobias stared at her quietly.

He called her Natalie instead of her full name since that day.

Natalie was shocked. "I don't think so. I think I'm quite confident."

No one would think that Natalie had low selfesteem. She did not believe it either.

Although she was born into a poor family, she always thought that she was as lively as a weed. "It's the subconscious part of you and you probably didn't even notice it yourself. Your family is the reason behind it,” Tobias explained, "Do you often worry about losing things after getting them? You often change your mind too, right?"

Natalie was surprised. "How did you know?"

Tobias smiled but he did not answer her question. "You'll overcome it someday when you wear those beautiful designer clothes. In fact, you would no longer ponder whether you deserve it."
