My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



She immediately woke Matthew up.

"Get up, Yesseca just called me and said she saw Lothar." Selina sounded urgent.

Matthew was stunned.

A moment later, he said, "She must have had a nightmare."

Selina got out of bed. "Whether it was a nightmare or not, we need to go and see for ourselves."

Soon after, the two of them drove over to Yesseca's house.

On their way there, Selina constantly urged Matthew to drive faster.

Matthew comforted her, "Don't worry. I'm going as fast as I can."

Selina was very anxious. "Why would Yesseca say that she saw Lothar?"

"She had a nightmare." Matthew answered confidently.

Selina agreed. She must have had a nightmare. After all, Lothar was dead.

"She must really miss him." There was a hint of sadness in her tone.

Matthew glanced at her. "Don't worry. Well be there soon."

She nodded, but couldn't contain the anxiety in her heart.

When they arrived at Yesseca's apartment building, Selina jumped out of the car and ran out, nearly falling over. Luckily, Matthew caught her in time. "Don't rush."

When they arrived at her apartment, Selina hammered on the door.

As soon as Yesseca saw Selina, she grabbed Selina by the hand and dragged her to the window. "Selina, look, my brother is outside the window!" Matthew explained calmly, "Yesseca, you had a nightmare. Calm down."

"I didn't have a nightmare!" Yesseca shouted.

She was so excited that her neck had turned red. This was the first time she ever spoke so excitedly to other people. Selina and Matthew were stunned to see her like this.

Yesseca pointed outside the window. "I saw my brother. My brother is out there."

She pleaded, "Selina, you have a lot of subordinates. Can you please get them to find my brother? My brother is alive, he has to be alive. My brother came to see me."

Selina felt like a dagger had stabbed her heart. It was terribly painful.

It was much worse than she had imagined.

At first, she thought that Yesseca had had a nightmare, but now it was clearly not that simple. Yesseca was being way too emotional.

Selina and Matthew comforted Yesseca, but they couldn't calm her down.

Matthew ordered some of his men to search the entire area. Yesseca calmed down after that.

Selina pulled Matthew aside, "Matthew, do you think Yesseca actually saw Lothar?"

"No." Matthew whispered, "It's just to get her to calm down."

Selina spoke with some concern, "I don't think Yesseca is just having a nightmare. She's being way too emotional. I'm scared to see her like this." Matthew thought about this. "She must have been suppressing this for a very long time."

Matthew's men soon arrived.

They began to search the area.

Yesseca followed after then. Selina and Matthew couldn't stop her and had no choice but to follow after her. They searched every corner of the district for two hours. Despite combing through the area several times, they still couldn't find Lothar.

However, Yesseca was adamant that Lothar was in the area. They just weren't looking hard enough.

Matthew asked Yesseca for some of Lothar's clothes. He would send his search dogs to find him. Once they've caught a whiff of Lothar's scent, as long as Lothar was still in the neighborhood, they would definitely find him.

Yesseca rushed back to her apartment.

Yesseca had carefully kept Lothar's clothes in a bag at her home.

When Yesseca went to get Lothar's clothes, Selina looked at Matthew with her pale face. "Matthew, what's wrong with Yesseca? I'm so scared." Matthew held her hand. "If the dog can't find Lothar, Yesseca will have to believe us."

A short while later, Yesseca ran back, panting.

She had Lothar's white jacket in her hand.

Selina recognized the jacket.

She remembered how often Lothar would wear that jacket.

Lothar was handsome and had a very sunny personality. Whenever he wore anything white, he looked especially handsome.

Her nose twitched and her eyes began to tear up.

She turned around, hiding her face from Yesseca.

A while later, Matthew sent his men to bring the search dog over.

The dog was much larger than a regular dog, and had shinier fur.

"This dog once served in the military. It can find anyone," The captain of Matthew's bodyguard explained proudly.

Yesseca held the jacket in front of the dog.

It sniffed the jacket and started getting excited. The dog started to tremble and began to howl.

The captain was confused.

Matthew's face fell. "What's going on?"

The captain looked puzzled. "This

has never happened before.

1.n

Normally it would go after its target right away. If that person isn't around it would be much more relaxed. This is the first time t've seen it behave like this."

The captain comforted the dog by patting its back and fed it some treats.

Shortly after, the dog calmed down.

The captain then whispered into the dog's ear.

It wagged its tail at the captain.

The captain then said to Matthew, "Mr. Perry, the owner of this jacket is not in the area. There's no point in searching."

Hearing this, Yesseca's face fell.

She looked at Matthew. "Matthew, you don't believe that, do you?"

Looking into Yesseca's pitiful and pleading eyes, Matthew felt his chest tighten. He didn't know what to say.

"Yesseca, you must have had a nightmare." He said a short while after.

Yesseca then looked at Selina. "Then what about you? You believe me right?"

She didn't say anything. She looked as downtrodden as Yesseca did, and her body trembled.

Matthew realized that something was wrong.

He quickly caught Selina from collapsing.

"Selina, you're pregnant. You need to get some rest. Don't worry, I'll be here."

Selina refused to do that.

Matthew ordered one of his men to take her back to the apartment to rest.

When Yesseca saw how badly this incident had affected Selina, she quickly held back her emotions.

She choked through her sobbing and said, "This is all my fault. You both should go home and take care of Selina. I'll be fine."Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

However, Matthew didn't leave.

He looked at Yesseca's face.

"Yesseca, my mother passed away

when I was very young. When she had just passed away, I missed her a lot. I often dreamed of seeing her, and dreamed of her being by my side. But every time when I woke up, she was never there."

Yesseca held her breath.

Matthew continued, "Sometimes I'd want to stay in my dreams forever and never wake up so that I could stay with her. But that's not realistic, is it? Life still goes on, and people have to wake up."
