My Heart only Beats for You

Cecilia was actually meeting Dylan.

This was their first meeting alone, without anyone else.

It was ironic that they met under such circumstances.

Arriving at the coffee shop, she spotted Dylan was already waiting there.

When he noticed Cecilia approaching him, he stood up immediately. "Hello, Madam Lawson."

Cecilia nodded in return. "Please, have a seat."

Dylan sat down across from Cecilia.

He gestured to the waiter to take their order.

"Madam, is there anything you would like to drink?" Dylan asked Cecilia.

"I am okay with anything," Cecilia answered casually.

"Well then, please give us two cups of cappuccino." Dylan added, "It's Selina's favourite drink."

Cecilia's ears perked up at him mentioning Selina's name.

Nobody spoke anything until the coffee was served.

Dylan broke the silence first. "Madam Lawson, is there anything that I can help you with?"

When he and Selina had been in a relationship, Cecilia had never taken the initiative to meet him privately. Cecilia took a sip of the coffee.

The aroma of milk masked the bitterness of coffee with a hint of sweetness. This definitely suited Selina's taste.

"To be frank, I approve of your relationship with Selina." Cecilia looked at Dylan. "Both of you could get back together with my blessing. My only wish is that you would live happily together, and you could get married at any time."

Cecilia hoped that with her urging, Dylan would take the initiative to pursue Selina again If he was successful, Selina would break up with Matthew before they got married.

Dylan stared at her in astonishment, then his face clouded over with bitterness.

What, did she not know that they had broken up long ago? Was this the reason she'd wanted to meet up privately?

"Madam Lawson, thank you so much for your concern. Regrettably, I have already broken up with Selina," Dylan murmured.

Cecilia brushed him off. "You have broken up and reconciled many times in the past, this time is no different."
