"Don't forget there's still Hayden. He is your great-grandson. Do you want to see him lose his mother?" Peter's body went rigid.

Cecilia's eyes were filled with tears. "Peter, I know you hate Natalie, and I can't say that I don't feel the same. I don't want Natalie to be here either, but since she's already here, what else can we do? It's all par of their fate. Natalie and Tobias are meant to be entangled with each other, so how can we go against destiny?"

Cecilia's voice broke off hoarsely by the time she finished. Meanwhile, Peter's muscles visibly tensed.

"Grandpa, do you know why I went against you and Mother's orders and brought Natalie here? It's because I know that if Tobias were conscious and able to express himself, he would definitely ask to see her. know he wants her to come. He wants to see her more than anything. What you are doing will only kill his hope," Selina said, her voice trembling.

Peter shuddered.

After a long while, he turned to look at Natalie.

Natalie was still clutching onto the door, her hands completely turning purple.

The bodyguards were still trying to tug her hands away from the handle, but she didn't budge at all.

Logically, it was not a difficult task for a few strong men to take down a petite woman.

But surprisingly, these bodyguards couldn't even pry her hands off the handle.

Peter's mind buzzed, and he started doubting if Natalie's arrival was indeed destined by fate.

All of a sudden, a sense of exhaustion came over him.

His eyes gleamed.

"Natalie." Peter's eyes burned brightly like torches.

"I will give you two options."

He uttered slowly, "If you leave now, then from now on, Tobias' matters will have nothing to do with you. If you insist on staying, I will throw you into Pelham River to feed the fish if he doesn't wake up within a month."

"I'll stay here!" Natalie did not hesitate for a moment.
