My Heart only Beats for You

Selina decided to be brazen. She replied, "Well, we just happened to get together."

Peter was happy with this answer, saying, "All is good as long as you're together now. But when will the wedding ceremony be held? It's ridiculous how a wedding ceremony can be delayed for this long!" Selina's heart skipped a beat.

Cecilia came to the rescue, "Matthew is currently very busy because there are lots of company matters to work on, as you would know. Also, this is a marriage between the Whitlock and the Perry family. Of course, we would need time to prepare."

"Just get it done soon!" Peter said, obviously not satisfied with Cecilia's answer.

Natalie threw Hayden a look.

She had informed Hayden the day before that yesterday that he was to keep Peter company.

Her reason for doing so was to divert Peter's attention.

Hayden was very smart and understood her hint immediately.

Although he did not understand the reason Natalie wanted him to keep Peter company, but he would do as he'd been told.

Hayden grabbed Peter's hand and said, "Greatgrandfather, come play with me! You haven't played with me for such a long time. Let's go play with model planes."

With this, Peter's attention was diverted instantly.

Peter said, "Sure, let's go."

Watching their backs, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

Cecilia warned Selina, "You better keep the secret. It's obvious that Dad's health is deteriorating."

Selina lowered her head and responded, "Okay."

She had understood this fact well even without Cecilia's reminder.

The nightmare the night before had been enough as a reminder for her to know Peter should not find out about their divorce.

After Peter went into Hayden's room, Selina received a call from Caroline.

Caroline invited her out as she needed to talk with Selina.

Selina was initially surprised but she soon had it sorted out.

Perhaps Caroline had finally believed in all the explanations she had given that day? Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
