My Heart only Beats for You

Chapter 527

"Merry, I didn't say that he is my father," Natalie explained weakly.

"That's what you implied, anyway." Merry huffed. "My nephew is very pissed off at being teased like a fool for nothing. I always thought that you were a nice girl, but instead, you made fun of me like this. Oh! I'm still so mad."

Merry stomped away in a fit after she finished talking.

Natalie stood on the spot with a lump in her throat as she fought back tears.

She felt terrible for that entire morning, like a hole was carved into her heart.

She wasn't sure if she was upset about her conversation with Tobias or because she felt wronged by Merry's accusations.

Tobias was attending a meeting that afternoon, so she didn't need to send him lunch.

Thus, she had lunch with Linda instead.

Natalie stared into the distance as she toyed absentmindedly with her fork. She seemed preoccupied.

Linda raised her brows in concern as she noticed that there was something amiss with her.

"Natalie, what's wrong?"

Natalie blinked twice, then stared at Linda in bewilderment. "Huh! It's nothing."

She chuckled half-heartedly and shoved a spoonful of potatoes into her mouth.

The food tasted bland on her tongue. Did the chef forget to add salt to the dish?

"Look at yourself." Linda frowned and said, "You look like you just went through a heartbreak."

Linda had had a breakup previously, too. Besides, she had also witnessed her friends being heartbroken. Natalie looked exactly like it.

Natalie immediately snapped out of her thoughts.

Heartbroken?

How could she be heartbroken?

She had never, ever fallen in love with anyone before.

After lunch, Natalie hurried back to her office.

Linda's comment about her being heartbroken kept replaying in her mind.

She gave it a serious thought, and after a while, she finally came up with a logical explanation.

She must have fallen in love with Tobias.

But before she could confess her feelings, Lucy suddenly appeared in their life, and it hit her hard.
