My Heart only Beats for You

Cecilia focused her gaze on Natalie's face. Her eyes carried a warm light within them as she said, "If Selina and Matthew can be as happy as you and Tobias are, I can rest assured as her mother," Natalie smiled. "Mom, that's for sure. Didn't you see how lovey-dovey Matthew and Selina were? They definitely will have a wonderful married life, just like Tobias and I."

"You're right," Cecilia agreed, all smiles.

Matthew and Selina had reached the Perry family's residence.

Prine had been waiting for their return.

When she saw them, she gave Selina a bowl of soup. Prine said, "Miss Whitlock, I have been brewing this soup for the entire afternoon. Drink up,"

Selina took it with a smile. "Thank you, Prine."

She sipped a mouthful, only to find that it didn't taste good at all. It even tasted somewhat weird.

Selina grimaced, but she said nothing and continued drinking it. After all, Prine had painstakingly brewed it for her.

However, Prina voiced out the thoughts in her mind of her own accord. "Does it taste bad?"

Selina gave a dry smile.

Erine explained, "This soup is meant for your baby. It's not meant to taste good. Please bear with it, Miss Whitlock,"

"Pffft." Selina nearly spat a mouthful of soup out.

She looked at Erine, utterly taken aback. "Erine, what are you talking about? I'm not pregnant yet."

Erine, on the other hand, looked dead serious. "Miss Whitlock, didn't you tell me before that you were craving sour foods? Your period hasn't come this month either. Aren't these signs of pregnancy?" Matthew was still standing beside them, yet Erine was blabbering on without any reservations. Serine's face flushed a bright red.

Erine then consulted Matthew. "Sir, don't you think what I'm saying makes sense?"

Matthew's lips stretched into a grin. "It's possible."

Hearing Matthew's reply, Erine grew more confident in her guess. "Miss Whitlock, I'm right. You must be pregnant."

Selina was dumbfounded.

"Miss Whitlock, you haven't menstruated this month yet, have you?" asked Erine.

Selina's face was beet-red. Her period was indeed late, but that didn't mean anything for sure...

Some women's periods could be late for up to half a month.

Selina helplessly replied, "Erine, you can't just deduce that I'm pregnant based on that. It requires a detailed medical examination,"
