My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 817

Natalie looked up, immediately showing a surprised expression. "Jack."

Jack sat across from Natalie with a grin. "I saw you through the glass when I passed by earlier. I thought my eyes were playing tricks, but it turned out to really be you."

Natalie smiled. "What have you been up to lately, Jack?"

"I've been busy with business."

Natalie chuckled as she said, "Jack, you can't always be busy with your work. Spare some of your time to meet a good woman and complete the most important task in your life."

A trace of loneliness flashed across Jack's eyes.

A moment later, he changed the topic. "What about you? How have you been doing recently?"

"I've been alright." Natalie took a sip of her drink.

"By the way, aren't you supposed to be on your honeymoon? Why have you come back so soon?" Jack asked casually.

Natalie's expression turned rigid at the question.

Jack could tell that Natalie was acting strangely.

He suddenly became nervous. "Natalie, what's wrong? Did Tobias treat you badly? I'll go find him if he did."

Natalie shook her head quickly. "No, he treats me very well."

Jack suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's just..." Natalie looked at Jack and wanted to add something, but she stopped.

She was thinking about whether or not she should tell Jack about this matter.

Jack was an influential person himself, so he might be able to be of some help to her.

However, she didn't want to bother Jack. After all, Jack also had his own business to deal with.

"Nothing." After thinking about it, Natalie decided to keep it from him.

However, when she spoke, the ripples in her gaze betrayed her, and Jack saw through Natalie at a glance.

Natalie had been like this since she was young.

Whenever she lied, a ripple would flash through her eyes.

Jack remembered that Madison often hit her during childhood.

However, she never said anything.

Every time he saw the bruises on Natalie's body, he would ask Natalie whether Madison had done something to her.

The young Natalie would only smile and shake her head. "No, Jack, she didn't."

Back then, traces of ripples would quickly flash across her eyes.

Jack became agitated all of a sudden.

He looked straight at Natalie with his dark eyes, his tone concerned. "Natalie, tell me what happened to you! Is it true? Does Tobias treat you badly?"

Speaking up to that point, Jack paused, his tone heavy. "You called me your brother when we were kids, so I'll be your brother for the rest of your life. If you're living a good life, I’ll give you my blessing, but if you're having a hard time, I'll definitely stand up for you!"

The determination in Jack' s eyes warmed Natalie's heart.

Everything that happened in her childhood suddenly popped out in her mind.

When she was a child, Natalie would follow behind Jack and call him her brother.

Every time she was hit by Madison, Jack would comfort her, saying that he would stand up to Madison for her.

The Jack she knew had never changed at all after so many years.

Natalie bit her lip.

After a moment, she told Jack everything.

Right then, she understood it all. Even though she didn't have a biological brother, Jack was like one to her. There was nothing she couldn't tell him.

Meanwhile, Jack turned silent, dumbfounded after hearing this.
