"Mrs. Whitlock." Matthew's tone became a little heavier. "If medical methods aren't working, I would suggest using psychological methods. I've seen a case where the patient fell into a vegetative state because of an accident, and the doctors were sure that he wasn't going to ever wake up. However, under his family and lover's calls, the man woke up, and it was a medical miracle. That's why I'm suggesting that you bring Natalie here."

Cecilia's breathing quickened.

An intense tug of war was playing inside her, almost tearing her apart.

After quite some time, she shook her head and sighed bitterly. "Forget it, Matthew."

She thought that the so-called medical miracle was unlikely to happen to Tobias.

Besides, although Tobias was unconscious, he was still alive. She was afraid that if Natalie was here, her presence would only bring bad luck and cause Tobias's condition to deteriorate.

"Mrs. Whitlock..."

"Matthew, please stop. No matter what you say, neither of us will agree to it," Cecilia snapped irritably, rejecting him without the slightest

hesitation.

Matthew's forehead creased with a frown.

Two days later, Matthew returned home.

He was in a huge dilemma.

One part of him wanted Natalie to come to see Tobias.

Another part of him wanted to respect Tobias' family's decision.

After all, no matter how close Matthew and Tobias were, Matthew was still an outsider and not a Whitlock. Meanwhile, when Matthew was on the flight heading back to Glevania, Selina already reached home too.

She went to Hayden's kindergarten.

Before this, Cecilia had cried and pleaded with Selina not to tell Natalie about Tobias.

But she felt extremely guilty for that.

She knew that Tobias was still alive, but she could not tell Natalie.

She could imagine just how badly Natalie missed Tobias.
