My Heart only Beats for You

Lisa would never dare to say such things in front of Tobias.

But Natalie's personality was gentle and innocent. Therefore, she did not have to hold herself back when she was talking to Natalie.

The three words "get it on" stood out in Natalie's mind like neon lights.

Her face immediately flushed red, like a tomato.

What kind of nonsense was Lisa saying?

Natalie wanted to explain, but Lisa shot her an understanding look.

"You've got the wrong idea, Lisa. It's not what you think," Natalie whispered through clenched teeth.

Lisa wanted nothing more than to get the real scoop on Natalie, but Tobias was still in the office.

She pushed that thought of gossip away and waved Natalie goodbye before leaving.

Only Tobias and Natalie were left in the office.

"Come here." Tobias's eyes flicked towards Natalie.

She walked over reluctantly, as slow as she could manage without making it seem too weird.

"Pick out the food that I don't like and eat them."

She opened the lunch box slowly, stalling as much as she could. "But I don't know which food you dislike, Mr. Whitlock." Of course, she was faking it on purpose.

How could she not know the food that Tobias disliked when she had been in charge of his meals for so long?

Since he had forcefully placed her under house arrest, she thought she could have a little fun annoying him on purpose.

Tobias glanced casually at her. "Whatever food you like are the ones I dislike. Remember this."

Her tiny nose scrunched up in frustration.

Alright, she had failed to annoy him.

Pouting her lips, she slowly picked the food she liked to eat into her lunch box.

Tobias waited for her to dig in before he started eating.

She sneaked a glance at him as they ate, and as usual-he ate with grace and elegance.

Her gaze unintentionally traveled down his arms and landed on his strong hands gripping the utensils firmly. Lisa's words suddenly rang in her mind.

"Get it on with you in the office."

Her cheeks felt hot again. She was burning up.
