My Heart only Beats for You

Perhaps it was because Selina was distracted when she took the glass, thus it slipped and fell. The juice spilled and splattered all over. The glass was shattered as well. Selina's reaction was stronger than usual.

She stared at the spilt juice on the floor with a blank look in her wide eyes. She looked like a puppet without a soul, void from any form of movement.

Natalie quickly ordered the servants to clean up the mess on the floor.

She poured another glass of warm water.

"Would you like some water?" Natalie asked softly.

Selina lifted her head.

Her face was blank.

Natalie guided the glass of water to Selina's lips with her own two hands.

Selina swallowed.

After drinking some water, she seemed to have come back to her senses and her eyelashes began to move slightly.

Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.

She spoke in a much gentler voice, "Matthew told me what happened just now. Although he didn't tell me the details, I could sort of guess what happened. Don't think too much about it. It's her fault and she's the only one to blame that she ended up this way. Try to relax, think more positively,"

Selina nodded.

She was still a little dazed.

Natalie was about to say something when Selina spoke first, "Natalie, is there anything to eat? I want to eat something,"

"Yes, of course, there is." Natalie stood up.

"Something like snacks," Selina added.

Natalie quickly fetched some potato chips.

Selina's appetite was like some of her aunts' who liked snacks, which was why there were chips available in the Whitlock family's home. Natalie tore open the bag of potato chips and handed it over.

Chomp. Crunch.

A series of crunching sounds emerged from Selina's mouth as she ate.

Selina seemed to have regained herself bit by bit with every crunching sound she made while she chew on the chips.
