My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 879

Should it be this way?

Dylan said many things to her, starting from when they were still students. He talked about meeting her for the first and what she liked to eat.

"Selina, do you remember what you wrote in your first love letter to me?"

"You said, I was the best looking guy in school and that you were the most beautiful girl. You said that we were made for each other and it was your destiny to be my girlfriend."

"You hated coffee that had too much sugar. You loved adding other tastes to it too, and it had to be mango-flavored."

"You really didn't like black clothes. You always said you looked like a widow in them."

"Foods with herbs in them were the worst. Anytime there were herbs in your meal, you were disgusted."

Selina stayed silent.

She was slowly tearing up.

She didn't expect him to remember all those things, and so clearly too.

After all these years, he really did remember

everything about her.

"Ok, ok, that's enough Dylan. Stop talking now!" she was getting a little choked up.

She was afraid she would lose control of herself if he kept talking.

In the very next moment, Dylan had pulled her into his strong embrace. She could feel his warm breath on her skin.

But she still felt cold inside.

Dylan softened his tone. "Selina, do you remember what you said? You said one of your favorite parts of weddings was seeing doves being set free. You loved it when there were airplanes flying about in the open sky leaving behind colorful trails. I remember everything you said. I don't want to do any wrong by you. You shouldn't have to settle for my shortcomings. Selina, don't you see? I've always loved you."

Selina finally cracked, she couldn't hold it in anymore and her tears began to flow.

She remembered. She remembered every detail of the time she'd told him these things.

It was only a year ago and she only ever mentioned it to him once.

Back then, he didn't say anything at all, he was just indifferent to it.

She recalled how disappointed she was at him for being so dismissive. She even believed he had ignored her and didn't hear anything she had said.

But now it was clear how wrong she was about him.

He was listening to her, and he remembered every word.

She felt all the walls she put up around her heart crumble in a split second, exposing her, leaving her totally vulnerable.

Selina still hadn't returned yet. The more Cecilia thought about it, the more convinced she was that something bad had happened.

She saw how panicked Selina was as she rushed out the door, saying "Something's happened to him."

Fearing the worst, she assumed that Selina was talking about Matthew.

She immediately called him after Selina had left in the car.

After a short ring tone, the call was picked up.

Matthew answered with his deep voice, "Madam Lawson?"

"Matthew, is everything alright?" Cecilia asked anxiously.

Matthew was unsure on what she meant.

"No, I'm fine. In fact I was just about to start a business meeting."

Cecilia gave off a big sigh of relief.

"Selina had just run out in a hurry. She mentioned that something had happened to someone, I assumed she meant you..."

She suddenly stopped herself.

A strong wave of unease trembled in her heart.

If it wasn't Matthew she was talking about, could she mean...?

"Well then, that's all Matthew. I'm relieved to hear you are alright. Please go ahead with your meeting. I'll hang up now." Cecilia quickly dropped the call.

On the other side of the phone call, Matthew's face hardened and his brows furrowed.

He decided to call off the meeting and proceeded to walk out of the conference room.

The room erupted with a buzz of gossip.

"What's been going on with Mr. Perry lately? He hasn't been staying back like he usually does hasn't he?"

"Yeah, its really strange. Mr. Perry's never behaved like this, ever. He would always be here all day working."

After walking a fair distance away from the room, Matthew called Selina.
