Natalie was taken aback for a moment.

After a while, she said in a low voice, "I didn't leave. I just went out to buy something."

Selina pursed her lips in frustration.

She had been so elated thinking that Natalie had come to her senses and left, but in fact, she only went to buy something.

Mixed emotions fought in her mind.

Natalie opened the bag in her hands to show Selina the red dress and cosmetics inside.

A faint smile formed on her lips, and her eyes were filled with hope. "Tobias is going to wake up tomorrow, and I want to make sure that I'm at my best when he sees me." This had only occurred to Natalie in the afternoon.

She panicked when she accidentally saw her wrinkled clothes.

She thought that Tobias wouldn't like seeing her look so bedraggled when he woke up. That was why she'd gone out to buy these things.

Selina took a peek inside the paper bag and darted a glance at Natalie. When she saw the undisguised hope in Natalie's eyes, her mind

became abuzz.

She'd thought that Natalie had ran for her life, but... Selina's heart twisted.

Natalie was so convinced that Tobias would wake up the next day.

In fact, Natalie was the only one who believed that. Even the doctors thought it was impossible.

Selina opened her mouth, but her words didn't come out.

She wanted to persuade Natalie, but when she saw the look in Natalie's eyes, she was suddenly at a loss for words.
