Yuna hesitated momentarily before she continued, "That explosion would also have violently shaken up that metal container, not to mention the fact that it fell into the sea. Tobias might have straight up fainted from the shockwave."

The more Peter listened to Yuna's analysis, the more frightened he became.

He did not dare to imagine whether Tobias would still be alive if he had been a second late.

The more he thought about it, the more grateful he felt towards Yuna.

If it weren't for her, he would have long since assumed that Tobias was already dead and wouldn't have sent anyone to investigate his whereabouts.

"Yuna, it's all thanks to you. If Tobias can wake up..." Peter trailed off halfway into his sentence.

After all, it was still a question as to whether Tobias would be able to regain consciousness or not, or ever again.

Meanwhile, over at Natalie's apartment.

It was approaching the dead of night, and Yvonne had already fallen asleep.

However, sleep would not come to Natalie no matter how hard she tried.

All she could think of was Tobias.

Why was it taking so long for Tobias to come back?

Natalie suddenly climbed out of bed.

She put on a coat and went downstairs.

She had a constant nagging feeling that Tobias would be downstairs waiting for her outside his car as he did in the past.

But when she came downstairs, there was no one there.

She could not find any trace of Tobias.

Natalie could not help but glance around amidst the darkness. There was still no one.
