My Heart only Beats for You

"How did you know I'm here?" Natalie asked Remington.

"When I woke up, I saw that you weren't there."

"Then why didn't you call me?"

"I guessed that you were probably nearby. Besides, I wanted to walk around," Remington said, sitting down as he took a huge swing of beer.

Natalie watched Remington, impressed. The way he downed the beer resembled the handsome protagonists in movies.

Just then, she asked again, "How did you know I was nearby?"

He turned to look at her slowly, his eyes gleaming like the stars in the night sky.

"I know you well, Natalie. You will never leave me alone when I have a fever and when there is no one around to take care of me. You must be nearby."

Natalie's heart skipped a beat.

She felt a lump forming in her throat.

Remington was only a friend of hers, but he understood her so well.

But Tobias?

Although they were no longer together, they used to call each other soulmates. Yet, he didn't understand her at all.

If he understood her even a little, he would not have said those cruel words earlier.

Maybe with a little understanding, he would not have let her suffer for four years for no reason.

Perhaps, he never truly cared about her.

Natalie gave a dry laugh.

"Tell me, Remington, if someone doesn't know you well, does it mean they don't care about you at all?" Although Tobias had said that he cared about her and loved her, he probably did not mean it, did he? Remington's eyes narrowed as he guessed, "Is this about Tobias?"

Natalie turned away, avoiding his gaze.

He had guessed it right. Was it so painfully obvious?

"Not only are you literally a fox, Remington, you also think like one," She muttered.

Remington's expressions grew serious as he frowned, "Natalie, you told me that you and Tobias are never getting back together."

and continued, "I don't blame you for getting back with him when you lost your memory, but now that you remembered everything, you shouldn't contact him anymore. Have you forgotten

Natalie froze.
