My Heart only Beats for You

Natalie said nothing.

Her face was ghostly pale, her lips pursed tight. She shook her head stubbornly, refusing Selina's suggestion.

"Natalie, anything is possible as long as you're alive. You are still young. Please don't be so stubborn," Cecilia persuaded.

Natalie shook her head again.

Cecilia glanced at Selina, signalling her not to say anything else.

No matter how hard they tried to persuade Natalie, it was to no avail. She had made up her mind to not leave no matter what.

Selina balled her hands tightly into fists, and her face scrunched anxiously.

The seconds ticked by. When it was close to midnight, Peter showed up.

"Come out," Peter ordered.

He didn't want to make such a huge scene in front of Tobias.

Natalie shut her eyes, her eyelashes fluttering. After a while, she opened them.

She got up from her seat.

Her gaze fell on Tobias' face. "Tobias, you didn't wake up. I don't think I can wait any longer. I made a deal with your grandfather, and it's time to carry out my end of the deal."

Natalie's voice was faint, and it carried endless sorrow.

"Farewell, Tobias." With that, Natalie walked out of the ward.

Outside the ward, Peter's gaze fell on Natalie.

"Do you remember our agreement from a month ago?" he asked coldly.

Natalie lowered her gaze. "Mr. Whitlock, I gave you my word, and I will keep my promise."

She was a woman of her word, and she'd stick to her promise no matter how badly she wanted to stay by Tobias' side.

However, there was no denying that Tobias was still comatose.

A thought occurred to Natalie in that instant. Perhaps even the heavens were against her and Tobias being together? She suddenly felt unbelievably exhausted.
