My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 1009

Everyone in the Whitlocks had panicked.

Peter had been sent to the hospital immediately.

However, the doctor had informed them of Peter's death with regret.

Selina woke up in shock. The sky was still dark.

Her eyes were wide open. She was in a daze.

Her pajamas were drenched in sweat.

After a while, Selina came back to her senses.

She started gasping for breath.

It had been a terrifying dream.

After sitting on the bed for what seemed like a long time, she got up for a shower.

The water from the shower dampened Selina's body.

There was a determined look in her eyes.

During Peter's visit, she and Matthew had to hide the truth from him by all means.

If something happened to Peter, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Peter should never know of this.

After the shower, Selina went back to bed.

However, she was no longer sleepy.

She sat up and picked up a book to read instead.

As she was reading, her thoughts eventually wandered off.

She remembered how she'd done this in the recent past.

And how she'd not been alone.

There had been someone by her side.

That man would join her with a book of his own.

Selina subconsciously touched the spot next to her, only to feel cold, empty space.

At that moment, she suddenly felt very lonely.

No one was by her side, Matthew would never sit next to her anymore.

There was a long silence.

All of a sudden, Selina smiled.

There was a sense of self mockery in her smile.

What was she thinking about?

Wasn't this what she had wanted?

Hadn't she found it annoying to have Matthew reading next to her every day?

Peter arrived on time the next day.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat when they saw him.

Peter had definitely deteriorated since the last time they saw him. It was no wonder that the family doctor had called them.

However, looking the bright side, his eyes were still full of spirit and he seemed to be jovial.

He shouted as soon as he entered the Whitlock family's house, "Hayden, where are you?"

Hayden ran out to him immediately.

He got into Peter's arms and said, "Greatgrandfather, I miss you so much."

Peter laughed in happiness.

He caressed Hayden's head and said, "I've missed you too. Look how much you've grown."

Hayden pulled at Peter's white beard and said, "But, you've become old."
