My Heart only Beats for You

Yuna said with a pitiful look on her face, "Grandpa Peter, how could I lie? How could a family like mine allowto tell lies?" Peter thought the same.

His tone was full of disdain, glowering at Natalie. "We don't need to look any deeper into this, because it's impossible for Yuna to lie. How could someone born into an educated family, like Yuna, lie? As for Natalie..." Peter beceven more disdainful. "How good can a woman from a middle-class family like hers be? She's probably a chronic liar. She's no match for Yuna!" Before this, Peter had indeed done a basic investigation into Natalie's background.

He did not know about the details, but he knew that Natalie was born into a family of commoners at the bottom of the social ladder. Her mother was unemployed, and her father worked at a construction site all year round.

Just as Peter finished speaking, an upstanding figure walked in. S~Earch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Tobias had clearly heard every single word that Peter had said.

His eyes darkened.

Before Tobias could say anything, Natalie had already spoken.

Her striking gaze landed straight on Peter's face.

Usually, Natalie's tone would carry respect when she spoke to Peter, but this time, it consisted of none. Peter could insult her all he wanted, but that did not mean he could do the sto James.

James was the best father in the world, and no one was allowed to insult him.

"Mr. Whitlock, does your so-called educated upbringing consist of pushing the blto someone without even investigating the matter? You liking Yuna and trying to help her is fine, but that doesn't mean that you can frme for something I didn't do. In fact, insulting and beratingis fine, but why are you bringing my father into this? Is this the way a so-called upper-class person should act?" "Yes, my father worked a low-level job, a job that you people look down upon, but that doesn't mean that he's a lowbrow. My father had the most integrity in the world." "Mr. Whitlock, you have no right to insult my father, no right at all!" Peter could not cback to his senses for a moment.

From the moment he'd met Natalie, she'd always been respectful to him. This was the first tshe'd spoken to him so sharply.

Natalie's gaze fell on Yuna this time, and it was filled with thick mockery. "Miss Sherman, from a so-called well- educated family background, who is apparently unable to lie... Yuna, can you swear on your conscience that you're not lying?" "I swear, I'm not lying!" Yuna immediately replied.

Natalie smirked. "I see. Your oath has made it clear tojust how worthless your conscience and values are, Miss Sherman." Yuna's face blanched immediately.

"You...!" "Natalie, you're being insolent!" Peter cback to his senses and bellowed in frustration.

However, Natalie acted as if she had not heard a thing.

As she looked into Yuna's eyes, she slowly approached her. "Miss Sherman, you said that you didn't want to start a conflict in the Whitlock family because of what happened between us, so you did that by crying your eyes out in the garden alone after being wronged until a servant cto look for you?" "If you didn't want Mr. Whitlock to know, you could have just walked away in silence. I didn't know compromising meant making a fuss until everyone found out. Miss Sherman, you're really putting on a good show!" "You're being too much!" Yuna was so maddened that her face flushed red.

She looked at Peter tearfully. "Grandpa Peter, I'm leaving. I don't want to stay here. Staying here just means I'll be humiliated. I grew up with my parents' love and care. I've never been this humiliated." The veins on Peter's forehead bulged.

"How dare you act so insolently in the Whitlock family!" Peter was so angry that he scooped up a teacup from the table and threw it at Natalie.

Natalie did not dodge it and just stood there.

However, the teacup did not hit Natalie. Instead, it landed steadily in a man's hand.

Tobias stood in front of Natalie, blocking her with his tall figure.

"Grandpa, are you done throwing your tantrum?" Tobias's tone carried a hint of harshness.

The moment she saw Tobias appearing out of nowhere, Natalie felt a sudden lump form in her throat.

When she had been wrongly accused, and when Peter had interrogated her, she had not felt like crying at all. But the moment she saw Tobias, the urge to cry welled up in her.

"Tobias, you're asking if I'm done throwing my tantrum? You should ask your woman whether she's done. Just take a look at what she's doing!" Peter yelled with irritation.

Tobias looked at him deeply. "Grandpa, I didn't see Natalie doing anything, and I've been standing here all this time. All I saw was you framing Natalie and even reprimanding her father. Grandpa, since when has your upbringing allowed you to put a person down because of their family background?" Peter was speechless for a moment.

He was not the kind of person who liked using someone's family background as an insult, rather he had just said that at the moment out of rage.

"Grandpa, Natalie is right. Her father was someone who had the noblest of personalities, and you don't have any right to reprimand him."

There was a flash of anger on Peter's face. "Tobias, how can you say that a m low-level worker like him has a noble personality? And how can you say that I don't have the right to reprimand him?"

Tobias met his gaze firmly. "Why not? Do you know that that low-level worker saved your grandson's life? That low-level worker brought your grandson to the explosion-proof container. It could only fit one person, and he had the chance to hide himself in there without letting anyone know. However, he gave your grandson the chance to live. Mr.

Whitlock, if that's not a noble personality, then I don't know what is.

Isn't he worthy of my respect?" Peter's breathing hitched.

James had saved Tobias' life? He had not known about this in the slightest.

Selina and Cecilia were filled with shock as well, their jaws slightly dropping.

Natalie had never told them that James saved Tobias. She had not even brought it up.

Meanwhile, after the initial startlement, Selina beceven more unconvinced.

It was true that Yuna had helped in saving Tobias, but she'd been broadcasting it for the whole world to hear.

What about Natalie? James had given up his own life to save Tobias, but Natalie didn't even mention a word about it.

In comparison, it was obvious who had the higher moral standing between the two.

Peter's old brain was just so muddled that he could not see it.

"Grandpa, as the elder of the Whitlock family, you should be handling each matter with equity, but why are you being so unfair towards Natalie?" Tablas cold eyes shot right through Peter. "Natalie has been nothing short of respectful to you from the moment she cto the Whitlock family, but have you ever returned it?" X Hot Singles Are Looking For Deepen Older Menhingles on CouldSee!
