My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



"He hit me! He hit me!" Angelica cried.

Selina glared at Montez. "What did you do to her?"

He bit his lip and said nothing.

Yesseca walked over.

She touched his head and asked in a gentle voice, "Montez, what happened?"

She knew that she still had some understanding of him.

And she believed he would not do such a thing.

When Yesseca asked this, Montez said, "Yesseca, she called you a country bumpkin. I- I told her to shut up."

He rushed over to Angelica, but he did not hit her.

His father had told him that real men would never beat the opposite sex.

Therefore, Montez covered Angelica's mouth and told her not to say anything more.

But she pushed him away, and she sat down on the ground and cried.

Hearing Montez's words made Selina's face darken.

She had heard Angelica calling Yesseca names before, so she didn't doubt Montez.

"Angelica, what's going on?" Selina said, "Didn't I tell you not to say that about Yesseca?"

Angelica rolled her eyes and cried, "Mom, I didn't!

He did it on purpose. He wants to frame me."

Montez's face turned red.

He said, "I would never do something like that! You called Yesseca a big bumpkin and me a little bumpkin."

Hearing this, Yesseca had a rough idea of what went on.

She knew that Angelica had said it.

Meanwhile, Selina's expression turned grave. "Angelica, let me ask you again. Did you say that? Don't lie to me!"

"No! I didn't!" Angelica cried.

Selina took a deep breath.

She knew Montez slandering Angelica was very unlikely.

But she was a parent, and she had to trust her child.

After all, she didn't see or hear what had just happened. Hence she could not verify it.

Therefore, she could only trust her own child.

"Angelica, I believe in you," Selina said.

Angelica suddenly stopped crying.

Montez's face turned even redder.

Therefore, he didn't care whether they believed him or not.

What mattered was that Yesseca believed in him.

And that was all he needed.

When Selina heard what Yesseca said, she looked at Yesseca.

She was approving of Yesseca's actions.

Yesseca sighed.

At first, she thought Selina would be mad at her for saying that.

After all, her words would mean that she was against Selina.

But she had to say that.

Even if Selina was like a sister to her.

But she couldn't ignore Montez's feelings.

Plus, she didn't think he was lying.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

It was great that Selina didn't blame her for taking Montez's side.

And also she understood something from Selina's look in the eye.

Both of the children were telling different stories.

However, there was no evidence to prove it.

They could only trust the children.

Selina trusted her daughter, Angelica.

And Yesseca believed in Montez.
