My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

That was the reason why Essie came looking for Yesseca.

What Essie did not expect was that Yesseca was much harder to persuade than she had expected.

Essie had no choice but to take matters into her own hands.

If Yesseca didn't do anything, Lothar would probably turn into ashes soon. That was why Essie had no choice but to carry out the plan herself. She wanted to take Selina's heart out of her chest with her own hands. Unfortunately, it was too late.

It was all under Matthew's expectation.

Matthew had not gone on a business trip at all. Instead, he had set up a trap that Essie had so blindly jumped into.

Sadness pooled in Essie's eyes.

She had been learning witchcraft from an early age.

She had practiced for hours and hours.

For that reason alone, she had no friends.

Everyone who knew her had said that she was strange.

When she was a child and wanted to play with other children, they'd mocked and laughed at her, saying that she was a monster and wasn't willing to play with her.

Essie was truly very lonely.

Then she had moved out and lived alone in Agaphen City.

She had bought a TV.

When she was bored, she would watch TV to kill time.

It was on one of those days she saw Lothar on TV.

Lothar was just a small actor, he acted as a cameo in a drama she watched.

But she felt that he was very good-looking, even better looking than the male lead of the drama.

He had a pair of eyes that seemed to come to life itself and a row of white teeth.

Essie had watched the drama over and over again.

Just to look at Lothar.

She knew that some people would be fans of the celebrity that they liked.

At that time, she had the impulse to follow Lothar and be his fan, but after some thought, she gave up.

She was a strange person who practiced witchcraft.

She felt that she wasn't qualified to be a celebrity's fan.

However, there was one day that she found a man being washed up to the shore.

The man's face was beaten beyond recognition.

But she still recognized him.

He was Lothar!

Essie tried her best to save Lothar.

She had spent some time with Lothar.

Although Lothar's face was no longer the same as before, Essie still felt that Lothar was still the same actor she saw on TV.

The short time she had spent with Lothar was Essie's happiest moment in her whole life.

She never knew that it felt so good to have company.

Only then did she realize how lonely she had always been.

But later, everything had changed.

Because Lothar had wanted to save Selina.

Essie didn't agree.

But later on, Lothar had knelt down to beg her.

Essie finally relented.

It was only when Lothar passed away that Essie began to regret what she had done.

She returned to how it was before, being all alone again.

That loneliness was unbearable.

Essie figured she had to bring Lothar back to life.

In order to bring Lothar back to life, she would do anything.

When she lied to Yesseca, she felt very guilty.

However, she kept telling herself that this was all for Lothar and to bring Lothar back to life. She had done all of this and came this far for Lothar! Despite her efforts, Essie had failed to bring Lothar back to life.

With a faint cracking sound, Lothar's body began to fall apart bit by bit and turned into ashes.

Essie burst into tears.

It was too late.

In the end, it was all too late.

Even if she were to take Selina's heart out now, was too late as Lothar's body was starting to disappear.

No matter how powerful she was, she couldn't preserve Lothar's body for very long.

It was Lothar's last day.

If he didn't have heart, he would truly leave this world. Not even his body could be preserved.

Selina and Yesseca both rushed over.

However, neither crying nor yelling could save Lothar from turning into ashes.

In the end, all that was left was a pile of ashes on the ground.

It was like how a person being cremated after death, leaving only ashes behind.

Essie wanted to take Lothar's ashes away.

Matthew did not agree.

Essie yelled like a madwoman, "Can't you leave me at least this?"

Matthew looked at Essie coldly. "Essie, do you deserve it?"

Selina's eyes turned red. "Essie, he's right. You don't deserve it!"

Essie stared at Matthew and Selina.

She knew that it was impossible for her to take away the ashes as long as Matthew was here.

Essie then cursed, "You'll both experience hell in

the future!"

She then turned and left.

Matthew was about to chase after her.

After what she had done, he could not let Essie leave just like that.

Selina stopped Matthew.

Her face was pale. "Forget it. Let her leave."

"Selina, she..."

Selina interrupted, "She is Lothar's friend. If Lothar is still alive, he would hope that you'll let Essie go."

Matthew fell silent.

His silence signaled his agreement.

Matthew then had someone store Lothar's ashes in an urn.

Yesseca wanted to take it away.

Selina wanted to go with her but Yesseca rejected.

Her eyes were filled with grief. "I want some time alone with my brother. Just a little while."

Matthew stopped Selina.

He signaled Selina with a look.

Selina understood and didn't follow Yesseca in the end.

After Yessecą left, Selina threw

herself into Matthew's arms and muttered as she sobbed, "Matthew,! regret it now. I shouldn't have listened to Yesseca's words and hesitated. If I hadn't hesitated, perhaps Yesseca wouldn't have been left alone and Lothar would have survived."

After that, Selina burst into tears.

Matthew held Selina tightly in her arms and said in a hoarse voice, "Live a good life for Lothar. That's what you should do, just like what Yesseca had said."

Yesseca brought the urn home.

She took out a photo of her and Lothar.

Looking at the picture, she said to herself, "Brother, I saw you again today, but you looked so ugly today. I think you must have known it. That's why you left us, right?"

"I really wanted you to come back to life today. I am very selfish. Although Selina treats me so well, I still want you to live. But I changed my mind in the end because I heard your voice. You whispered in my ear. You want me to stop her from dying.

"Brother, I finally understand now. You liked Selina, don't you? You would rather sacrifice your own life to let herdive. I really hate your decision, because it was like you'd forgotten that you still have me, your sister. Didn't you know how hard it

would be for me to live on without you?!"

At this point, Yesseca couldn't help but shed tears. "But I still helped you. I helped you stop Selina because I respected your decision as my brother."
