Natalie held herself tightly.

"Natalie," Selina cried out, rushing over to her.

Natalie's eyes flew open when she heard Selina's voice.

"Has... Has Tobias woken up?" she asked urgently, her gaze fixed on Selina.

"No, he isn't awake," Selina said in a low voice. "I'm here to check on you."

At that, Natalie seemed to wilt.

"Oh." Her voice was filled with disappointment.

Selina gazed at the storm and then turned to look at Natalie. "I'll find you a place to stay."

The weather was nasty outside, and she was worried that Natalie would get sick if she stayed outside the hospital any longer.

She'd just spoken when bright lights shone on them.

Selina's hand flew in front of her face, shielding her eyes instinctively.

A black vehicle was parked outside, and someone stepped out.

It was Matthew. He got out of the car with a black umbrella in his hand.

He woke up in the middle of the night and realized that the weather had changed suddenly. He was worried about Natalie, so he came over to check on her too.

"Matthew?" Selina was visibly surprised.

Matthew cleared his throat, his tone gentle. "I'm here to check on Natalie."

An unreadable expression glinted in Selina's eyes.

Then, she waggled her finger at Matthew, gesturing him over. "Come here, Uncle."

Matthew was baffled, but he followed her anyway.

Selina glared at him. "Uncle, you're not interested in Natalie, are you? Let me tell you, Tobias might be unconscious now, but he's going to wake up sooner or later. You shouldn't be doing something like this." It had only just occurred to Selina how odd Matthew's actions were. He was being so kind to Natalie, even coming here in the middle of the night to check on her.

Matthew was taken aback, obviously baffled.
