My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1598

It turned out that everything Selina told her was true. She had thought it was all a joke. Although she liked Kyi in very much, she had never thought about him this way. Now that Kylin had expressed his intentions, she didn't know what to do.

"Yesseca, let's have dinner together. I chose a restaurant you like." Kylin persuaded.

Yesseca immediately rejected his invitation, "I'm... I'm going home for dinner."

"Did you mean to invite me to your house for dinner?" Kylin asked while looking at with a smile on his face.

Yesseca was quiet.

She shook her head. "I... I didn't mean that."

The smile on Kylin's lips widened. "Then come with with me to the restaurant for dinner, unless you want to invite me over to your house instead."

There was a silence.

Yesseca realized that she had been tricked.

Because Kylin had fed her the illusion of choice, the illusion that she only had two choices.

To invite Kylin over to her home or to have dinner at a restaurant together.

Of course, she chose the second option.

It wasn't until she arrived at the restaurant that she realized there was a third choice.

She wouldn't have to invite Kyi in to have dinner at her home, nor did she have to go to the restaurant with him.

But since she was already there, she had to bite the bullet and walk in.

The waiter brought over the menus.

Kyi in passed one over to Yesseca.

Yesseca handed it back. "You order."

Kyi in nodded.

When he made his order, he saw Yesseca sitting with her head hung low. Her long eyelashes trembled and her body was tense.

Kyi in lowered his voice. "Yesseca, there's no need to be nervous. We're just friends, just like before."

Yesseca was about to cry. "But we can't be friends anymore."

Since Kylin had already confessed to her, how could she just treat Kylin as a regular friend?

Kylin continued gently, "Yesseca, it's my decision to pursue you. If you treat me just like an ordinary friend, I'll just be an ordinary friend in your heart, unless..."

Kylin left the sentence hanging.

Yesseca was stunned for a moment before realization finally dawned on her.

Yes, it was as Kylin said, it wasn't that difficult.

Kylin gave her roses at the entrance of the mall earlier, but she refused them. Kylin then placed the roses back into his car.

If she treated Kylin as an ordinary friend, what did she have to be nervous about?

As she thought this, Yesseca finally relaxed.

During their meal, Kylin asked, "Yesseca, do you have anyone you like right now?"

This question startled Yesseca.

Just as Kylin asked this question, a familiar face immediately appeared in Yesseca's mind.

His smooth, fair face with that sharp jaw and cool demeanor. His dark, deep eyes, those thick eyebrows, that tall and straight nose of his and his beautiful lips, all of them were flamboyantly elegant.

It was Tremaine's face.

Yesseca was stunned at herself.

God, was she possessed? Why was she thinking about Tremaine?

This waitress had gone too far!

The elderly man was already so old, how could she say something like that? This was too much!

Yesseca was just about to speak up for the old man when Kyi in stood up and walked over.

He said softly to the old man, "Sir, please have a seat. A restaurant is an establishment that takes care of their customers. As long as you are inside, they'll take good care of you."

After that, he spoke to the waitress, "Please serve this gentleman one of your finest meals. Put it on my bill. You should know that he is an elderly gentleman and it is our role as the younger generation to care for them with the same kindness they provided us as children."

The waitress's face turned red as she listened to Kyi in's explanation.

"Yes sir." The waitress rushed away right after.

The old man looked at Kylin gratefully and said, "Thank you, young man. When I... I came in. I didn't know it would be so expensive. If I had known, I wouldn't have stepped in."

After that, the old man took out a plastic bag from his pocket. His hand was full of age spots. He carefully opened the plastic bag and said, "You don't have to pay for it, young man. I can't have you pay such an exorbitant amount."

Kylin held the old man's hand and said, "Don't worry, I ought to spend some money to provide care for you. You're a senior citizen in our society. As a younger man, I should show my respect to you."

Yesseca walked over and added, "That's right, sir. We'll treat you to a meal. Please don't feel the need to refuse. We're just doing what we believe we ought to."

Having said that, Yesseca sat down and smiled at Kylin. "Kylin, let's have our meal with the old man. Otherwise, he'd be quite lonely if he eats alone."

A flash of approval flashed across Kyi in's eyes.

He nodded. "Okay, let's do that."

The old man was so happy that tears welled up in his eyes.

During their meal, Yesseca and Kylin chatted with the old man. During their conversation, they learned that the old man had no remaining relatives, because he had never married nor had any children due to being poor. When he was young, he'd survived on odd jobs. When he got old, it became difficult to live by collecting recyclable items.

Yesseca quickly said, "Sir, I used to work as a volunteer in a nursing home. It is a place that is run by a welfare agency that doesn't require you to pay them any money. If you want to live there, I can help arrange it for you."

The old man sounded hesitant. "Re.. Really?"
