My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 1008

He hadn't wanted to keep this vegetable garden initially as he didn't like the idea of having vegetables planted around the house. He'd only given in because of Selina, and since she'd left, he'd seen no point in keeping it.

However, upon hearing Erine's statement that the seeds had sprouted, Matthew had thought that he'd keep the vegetables since they represented the birth of a new life.

Now that he had seen these little sprouts with his own eyes, he was even more determined to keep the vegetable garden.

"Take good care of them," Matthew said lightly.

Then, he walked into the living room where dinner had been served.

The servants of the Perry family would usually not prepare any dinner unless they were instructed to do so. This was because Matthew had used to work way past working hours, eating at the office almost every day.

However, everything had changed since he'd married Selina.

He would come home on time for dinner.

That night, dinner was prepared as usual.

Matthew felt bored while having dinner.

At times, a habit is hard to change.

Matthew was a good example. He had gotten used to dinner with Selina after work each day. Yet, from this point on he could only have dinner alone.

He forced himself to not think about it.

After finishing his dinner quickly, he

headed upstairs to rest.

When he entered the bedroom, a feeling of loneliness engulfed him.

He remembered how Selina would always be sitting on the bed, reading or playing with her mobile phone. Whenever he entered, they would jokingly argue.

However, Selina was no longer there.

Matthew stood in the bedroom for a long time in a daze and went back downstairs.

With the bedroom filled with memories of Selina, Matthew was certain he would lose sleep that night if he stayed on.

Therefore, Matthew got Erine to clean up the guest room which he would sleep in for the night.

It took Erine no time at all to have the room ready.

She looked at Matthew uneasily and asked, "Mr. Perry, why hasn't Miss Whitlock come back? When will she be back?"

What seemed like an innocent question was somehow like a dagger stabbing through Matthew's heart.

He was heartbroken.

"She's not coming back anymore," Matthew said lightly.

Prine was stunned.

"She will never be coming back anymore," Matthew continued softly.

No one in the Whitlock family had expected Peter Whitlock to come over.

He'd come because of Selina.

He was there as he had been worried about the delay in Selina and Matthew's wedding ceremony.

Even more importantly, just after learning of his intentions from Peter himself, Cecilia had also received a call from their family doctor.

It turned out that Peter had not been in a fit condition recently, but had insisted on going to visit besides the doctor's strong resistance.

He ended the call after emphasizing that considering his age and condition, Peter must not be agitated and had to remain in good spirits.

The Whitlocks were all jittery and nervous following this last call.

Peter's visit was because of Selina and Matthew's wedding. No one dared think what would happen if he found out about their divorce!

Before the call, they had expected Peter to just be mad upon knowing, but after the call from the family doctor...

No one would be able to bear the responsibility if Peter's condition deteriorated due to anger!

Therefore, Cecilia gathered the entire family for a discussion the night before Peter's arrival.

Selina was very nervous. She held her hands tightly and bit her lip hard.

She hadn't expected Peter to do this.

What should she do now?

She was filled with regret.

She had truly been too impulsive. Things would not have ended up in this way if she had just asked a few questions before agreeing to marry Matthew!
