My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 499

"Natalie, what's wrong?" There was a tinge of confusion in Yvonne's voice.

Natalie did not have time to explain things in detail to her.

"I'll explain once you get back. Just come back as soon as possible." Natalie said.

It seemed inappropriate for her to ask the two men outside to leave.

Only when Yvonne returns will these two people leave, putting an end to the uncomfortably oppressive atmosphere.

Natalie's heart was full of regret.

She should not have let Remington up for the sake of putting on a good show. Otherwise, Tobias would not have come up and they would not be caught in such an awkward situation.... Yvonne hung up the phone.

"Penney, I have to go back now." Yvonne looked at Penney apologetically.

"Something important?" Penney asked.

Yvonne replied, "It's about my best friend."

Penney sighed, "You treat that friend of yours with such high importance. Last time, you even pushed away a major audition for her."

Yvonne's gaze softened, "Of course she's important."

Natalie represented not only their friendship during college, but also the memory of her most beautiful and pure days.

Even though her heart was no longer the same as before she entered the entertainment industry, Natalie was still the imprint of her innocence.

"You go on back, but consider his offer carefully." Penney solemnly looked at Yvonne, "If you agree to Jenkins' offer, your future will be limitless. I'll also be with you the whole way."

Yvonne was a bit hesitant, "Penney, to be honest, I really don't know why Jenkins would make such a request."

Penney took on a confused expression, "I'm surprised, too. It may be a trap. Now, it's just a matter of whether or not you'll jump in."

Biting her lip, Yvonne replied, "I'll give you an answer in two days."

Penney gave her a knowing look, "You really need to think it through."

Yvonne nodded and left.

She took a taxi back home.

On the way back, she looked out at the passing scenery and her mind drifted away.

She thought of that night.

She had drunk too much and could not retain her anger. Then, she happened to see Jenkins.

Once again, Yvonne brazenly went up to Jenkins.

Jenkins brought her back, but nothing happened.

That man did not touch her.

He sat on the sofa while Yvonne stood in front of him.

He looked up at Yvonne. With great pressure in his eyes, he said, "So you'd like to make it big?"

Yvonne did not hesitate for even a moment, "That's right."

Jenkins laughed coldly, "Then marry me. I'll give you half a month to think about it."

At that moment, Yvonne was dumbfounded.

She thought she was going to have to sleep with him, but she did not expect that Jenkins would want to marry her. But why would Jenkins want to marry her?

Yvonne could not understand.

She and Jenkins had only seen each other a few times. In total, their meetings lasted no longer than two hours.

Not to mention, Jenkins was a major figure in the industry. He was a man of power. He could have any woman he wanted, but he wanted to marry a nobody like Yvonne?

No matter how hard she thought, Yvonne could not figure out the reason behind his request.

Her intuition told her that the situation was not that simple.

At that time, Yvonne's mind was a complete mess, "Mr. Quartley, I'm not a virgin anymore."

When men looked for marriage partners, especially a man like him who was on the upper levels of the hierarchy, should they not look for a pure, untouched woman to marry? Jenkins's smile grew colder.

He suddenly stood up and walked towards Yvonne one step at a time.

The man was extremely indifferent. Even his footsteps were frigid, as if he was stepping on the tip of people's hearts. Yvonne felt a chill run down her spine.

When he stopped in front of Yvonne, a trace of fear slithered into Yvonne's heart.

The man standing before her was very handsome, but he was so cold that he only made her afraid.

Jenkins's cool gaze pierced straight into Yvonne's eyes. His words were sharp, "One layer of membrane doesn't mean anything, let alone the chastity of a woman. Do you think I, Jenkins Quartley, will be concerned with that single layer of membrane in women?"

His words were full of contempt and

At that moment, Yvonne was stunned.

"Half a month later, come find me if you agree. If you don't, don't show up in front of me ever again." Then Jenkins ordered for her to leave.

She was ushered out of the Quartley family's villa by the butler.

Afterwards, Yvonne went to look for Penney.

What Jenkins said to her that night was too much for her mind to take in.

Penney could not think of an explanation either. What was Jenkins's intention of marrying Yvonne?

It was simply too hard to understand.

But the only thing she was sure of was that if she married Jenkins, Yvonne would become the most popular actress in the industry. She would be at the peak of the entertainment pyramid. She would no longer be a little shrimp waiting to be bullied by others.

But the risk was that the marriage might be an

abyss.

"Miss, we're here." The driver stopped the car and reminded Yvonne after noticing that she was unresponsive for a while.

Yvonne snapped back to reality.

"Sorry." She hurried upstairs after paying the fare.

As soon as she opened the door to the apartment, she felt a gust of cold air coming from the inside.

It was not the air coming from the air-conditioner.

Yvonne shivered from the chill.

There were three people in the apartment. The scene before her was unpleasant and hostile.

Yvonne was startled when she saw Tobias.

She had never expected that Tobias Whitlock would appear in her apartment.

It had been a long time since she last saw him.

"Mr. Whitlock." Yvonne greeted him automatically.

Tobias nodded, his expression faint.

The other man smiled and took the initiative to greet Yvonne, "Hello, Natalie's beautiful roommate."

Yvonne smiled and returned the greeting, "Hello."

The man in front of her was refined and goodlooking. He looked like the type of man that was currently the craze in the entertainment industry.

However, it was obvious that even if the most beautiful man in the industry was brought here to be compared with the man in front of her, the actor would instantly become irrelevant.

Yvonne had never seen a man with such fox-like striking and beauty.

Because of Yvonne's arrival, Tobias and Remington were finally going to leave.

Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.

Before he left, Tobias whispered a few words in Yvonne's ear.

"Please take good care of Natalie."

His voice was deep and warm.

Yvonne's heart skipped a beat.

Prince Charming, oh, Prince Charming. He really was worthy of being the Prince Charming of her college days.

Being in showbiz, she had seen many handsome men. But Tobias's appearance and personality were top-notch.

Especially his voice. His voice was so charming that it was like the voice of a nightingale.

Most importantly, his words showed Yvonne his concern for Natalie.

If he did not truly care about Natalie, Tobias would never say such a thing.

Something stirred in Yvonne's mind.

Tobias and Remington walked down the stairs.

Before entering his car, Tobias shot Remington a cold look, "Remington, don't ever set foot in Natalie's place again."

His words held a hint of warning.
