With the same goal, Lothar himself had put in his all to become an idol, even ignoring his own principles to carry out Reid's orders. He was doing all this because his sister would die if he didn't have enough

money.

This was a reality for him.

How could he stay optimistic under this crushing burden? How could anyone, if they were in the same situation?

Lothar said, "Selina, in that situation, just living would take up all the energy you have. Would you be able to be optimistic if you were in their shoes?"

Selina was confused by Lothar's words.

She had never experienced this before. Therefore, she couldn't understand what Lothar was trying to say.

"Even so, my sister-in-law has always been very optimistic," Selina said softly.

Lothar did not answer.

Their optimism was usually fake. It was to deceive themselves rather than others.

That was the only way they could live without being devastated by the sheer cruelty of reality.

Lothar stood up and said incoherently, "So, we have to be optimistic. We have to stop dwelling over those unhappy memories."

Selina gave a wry smile.

She looked at her full, bloated stomach.

It was true that she had now stopped dwelling on those unhappy memories.

Matthew learned that Cecilia had regained her consciousness when he returned to the hospital.

"Matthew, my mother would like to talk to you," Tobias said to Matthew.

Matthew was stunned for a moment.

He came back to his senses instantly.

"Okay," he nodded slightly and said.

He walked into the ward.

Cecilia sat up when she saw Matthew coming into the ward.

"Madam Lawson, you don't have to sit up," Matthew said.

Cecilia shook her head and said, "I'm fine. It's quite tiring for me to lie down all the time. I would prefer to sit up."

Matthew did not insist.
