My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

She would treat him as a stranger the next time they met.

Suddenly, there was a knock on her front door.

The knock was gentle, it wasn't harsh or rapid.

Yesseca understood why she didn't wake up when he knocked on her door last night.

He was being way too gentle.

Unless she was having a light snooze, there was no way she could have heard him.

However, of course, she knew why he was so gentle with the way he knocked on her door. He didn't want to wake her up. Yesseca went to open the door.

Kylin was surprised that Yesseca had opened the door so quickly. "That's quick?"

Yesseca nodded. "I woke up a long time ago. I was on the sofa when you knocked on the door."

Kylin smiled and said, "Well, let's get you some breakfast,"

Yesseca followed Kylin out of her apartment.

She thought that Kylin would take her someplace fancy like a five-star hotel or something similar.

After all, rich people liked to go to places like that. However, she was surprised that Kylin took her to a small restaurant.

There were a lot of people in the store, selling the most common breakfast items like bagels and sandwiches.

After sitting down at an empty table, Kylin said, "The best items on their menu are their bagels, egg sandwiches and coffee. Do you want one of each?"

"All right."

A short while after, they were served their food.

Yesseca was surprised after taking her first bite.

She didn't expect it to taste so delicious.

The coffee was strong, the bagels were fresh and the egg sandwiches were bursting with filling.

Yesseca didn't feel very hungry at first, but then happily ate until she was full.

After they were done eating, Kylin dropped Yesseca off at the shopping mall.

Yesseca asked curiously, "I didn't know there was a place that served such good food near my apartment. Kylin, how do you find that place?"

Kylin answered vaguely. "I just found it by accident." "It was really tasty. I'll go there more often now," said Yesseca.

"Then, I'll take you there more often," Kylin said while looking at Yesseca.

"There's no need for that. It's too much of a hassle for you to get up so early to do that. Actually, you don't have to come to see me off every day. The weather's been getting colder lately," Yesseca said. Kylin smiled and said, "It's only natural for a man to send his girlfriend to work. It's what I should do,"

Yesseca could only look at him in silence.

After he stopped the car at the entrance to the mall, Kylin took out a bag of snacks he had bought for her.

He said, "You might get bored at work later, so here's a bag of snacks to help you kill some time,"

Yesseca felt somewhat dazed.

This snack bag was much too big for her. The amount of snacks inside was more than enough to feed her for a whole week.

She said helplessly, "I'll freak all my colleagues out by taking this into work,"

"It doesn't matter. You can share it with them," Kylin replied.

A thought suddenly crossed her mind.

It suddenly occurred to her that such a large bag of snacks from Kylin probably wasn't just for her alone. It was for her colleagues as well.

Why did Kylin do this for her? He must want to help smoother, her relationship with all of her colleagues.

He was really thoughtful.

He was so considerate and caring.

Yesseca took the large bag of snacks and said, "Well, thank you,"

"You don't need to thank me. It's what I should do."

Yesseca went into the mall.

Sure enough, she caught the attention of all her colleagues with her giant bag of snacks. She opened them and distributed them to her colleagues. Although the shopping mall had a rule against eating during work hours, rules were just words on a page at the end of the day. Enforcing them was a whole separate thing.

Except for the weekends, there weren't any customers around during the day, so the staff would secretly eat their snacks then.

Since everyone was getting snacks, Enarlyn was also included.

Yesseca asked a colleague who was close to

Enaryln to pass her a bag of potato chips and some groundnuts.

Enaryln knew that Yesseca was passing out snacks, but she didn't expect to actually get some.

She received them from her colleague, but the moment she left, Enarlyn turned around and tossed the snacks into the trash can.

Her eyes glared with hatred.

Yesseca had humiliated her. Did she really think she could just brush that under the carpet with some snacks?

Sooner or later, she would serve Yesseca a taste of her own medicine.

Around ten o'clock, Yesseca received a phone call from Selina.

"Did Kyi in take you out for breakfast this morning? The food in that restaurant is very delicious, isn't it?" Selina asked with a sweet smile on her face.

Yesseca was taken aback.

How did she know what the food tasted like?

"Yes, he did. How did you know?"

"Yesseca, Kylin is very kind to you," Selina said happily. "He told me last night that he was going to take you out for breakfast, then spent the whole night preparing. He wanted to take you somewhere that had delicious food you would like and that was close to your apartment. He asked a lot of people for suggestions, that's how he found that restaurant."

Yesseca was stunned.

Kyi in told her he had found it by accident this morning. She didn't realize he had put so much effort into finding that place.

Yesseca felt a wave of emotions welling up in her heart.

"He's so modest too," Selina added.

"Yeah," Yesseca murmured.

It was good to have Kyi in around.

"I told you. If you got together with Kyi in, he'd take good care of you. You won't suffer with him as your partner. I wasn't lying to you," Selina reminded her. Yesseca didn't know how to respond.

She knew that Kylin is a very nice man, but she wasn't very good with compliments. If she was asked to speak highly of him, she wouldn't have any idea how to do that.

After a short while, she had to change the subject. "Selina, I'll come to see you today after work." "Okay." Selina replied. "I'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. You can come and see me tonight."

"You're getting discharged tomorrow?" Yesseca was surprised. "Didn't you say there was a confinement center in the hospital? You have to stay there."

"Yes, that's what I had planned to do,

but Erine didn't agree to it. She said that the staff at the confinement centre weren't as competent as her." Selina explained. "I couldn't stand Erine's hagging so I've decided to go back home to work and complete the rest of my confinement period there."

Yessecalaughed.

She knew that Erine was doing this for Selina's sake. If she were to be at home, Erine would be able to take much better care of her than any of the staff at the hospital.

"It would be good for you to be home. Erine is definitely more caring than any of the staff in the hospital."

"That's what I thought as well. That's why I agreed," Seline replied with a smile.

After chatting for a little while more, Yesseca hung up the phone. After a while, Sierra came running over.

Sierra said with a smile, "The snacks you gave us this morning were from that young man, weren't they?"

Yesseca was surprised. "How did you know?"

Sierra sounded very confident. "Just a guess."

Yesseca was speechless.

She couldn't believe that Sierra had actually found out by just guessing.

Sierra then explained, "I've eaten these snacks before. One of my husband's friends is the director of the company that distributes them He gave some to our family once and they were very expensive. Knowing you, you wouldn't have the heart to splurge on such expensive treats. So that young man must have bought these for you,"

Yesseca listened quietly.

She then asked, helplessly, "Sierra, am I really that stingy?"
