When Natalie returned home, she carefully plucked off the strand of white hair.
Yvonne stared at Natalie in shock. "Natalie, you have white hair already?" Natalie smiled and shook her head. "Only one strand." Her heart swelled at the mention of her white hair. This was the first tthat she had felt this ecstatic ever since Tobias' accident.
Yvonne's eyebrows quirked. "I know it's only one strand, but why are you so excited over it?" Natalie rummaged around in her drawer and found a box, then carefully put the white hair inside. "Yvonne, Hayden talked totoday." Yvonne snapped her head towards Natalie.
Based on how Hayden acted last time, it seemed that he hated Natalie very much. Why would he suddenly talk to Natalie? Natalie's eyes were gleaming, something that hadn't happened in a while. "He still cares about me. He huggedand toldnot to grow any more white hairs. Yvonne, he still cares about me." Yvonne couldn't help but feel glad for Natalie.

"Of course he cares about you. You're his birth mother, after all. He's still young, I'm sure he will grow to love you again when he's older." Natalie nodded her head vigorously and mumbled, "Yes, I'm sure he will." She beamed to herself, her eyes shining.
One day, Hayden would accept her and like her again, and Tobias would return. The three of them would be happy together.
Matthew arrived in United States.
He traveled all the way here because Peter had called him and asked him to come.
It had already been so long, and yet Tobias still had not awoken from his coma.
Peter grew increasingly anxious every day, and he could not bear it anymore.
He knew that Matthew had many connections, so he wanted to see if Matthew could find a skillful doctor to treat Tobias.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, Matthew and Selina brushed past each other at the hospital entrance.
Selina's footsteps were hurried and urgent as if she was rushing somewhere.
She did not recognize Matthew.
After all, she had only met him only a few times before.
However, Matthew recognized Selina at first sight.
His heart skipped a beat when he saw her, but before he could say anything, she was already gone.
He hesitated for a while, then shook his head and quickened his pace towards the intensive care unit. Tobias was his top priority now.
When Matthew finally arrived at the ICU, he was taken aback at the sight of Tobias's current state. He stopped in his tracks with his jaws slightly opened, utterly dumbfounded.
Although he was already mentally prepared when he had heard about Tobias' condition from Peter, the real situation was much worse than what he had imagined. Tobias lay lifeless on the hospital bed, tubes and wires connected all over his body in a tangled mess. Matthew's brows knitted tightly as he observed him. Actually, he had also heard of the explosion in Agaphen City, but he didn't know that Tobias was involved. During this period of time, Tobias hadn't contacted him either. He thought Tobias was probably busy with work, and he would never have imagined that Tobias had gotten into such a huge accident. "Matthew, you're finally here," Peter exclaimed.
Peter was an arrogant man, and he rarely gave anyone the tof the day. Matthew was one of the few that he respected.
Matthew was one in a million. He had a charming personality, and he was also a capable man.
Even Peter, who was known for his picky attitude, admired Matthew very much.
He even thought of being a matchmaker for him and Selina.
In the end, he decided to give up because Matthew was much older than Selina, and also because he thought a mature man like Matthew wouldn't be interested in a childish, young girl like Selina. "Mr. Whitlock, long tno see." Matthew greeted Peter weakly, the pain evident in his voice.
Peter's tone was fatigued and helpless as well. "Matthew, do you know any specialists or experts in this field? Look at how Tobias is right now. He's been like this for ages." He let out a long sigh after finishing his sentence.
Peter usually didn't like asking others for help. Consulting Matthew was his final resort.
Matthew's eyes darkened. "Mr. Whitlock, you've already gotten whoever's able to." Peter smiled bitterly. "Yes, I invited all the experts I could get, but even they can't do anything about it." Matthew pondered for a while.
A moment later, he asked, "Mr. Whitlock, would you mind tellingmore about what actually happened at that time?" Earlier, Peter had only briefly described the whole situation to Matthew, but he didn't tell him the details.
To be honest, Peter wasn't quite clear about the details of the situation either. He summoned Cecilia into the ward instead. Matthew met Cecilia before. She was a beautiful lady, elegant regardless of age.
But now, Cecilia had lost a lot of weight, and her previous rosy complexion had completely disappeared from her face.
She looked sickly pale, and she was so skinny that it looked like she would break a few bones if she accidentally tripped and fell.
"Mrs. Whitlock," Matthew greeted respectfully.
Cecilia nodded. "Good to see you, Matthew."
She paused and said, "Peter toldthat you would like to know the whole story. I only know as much as Peter does, you will have to ask Tobias' assistant about the details. I'll call him now." Cecilia dialed Benjamin's number and then passed the phone to Matthew. Half an hour later, Matthew hung up the phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA plan slowly formed in his mind.
He looked at Cecilia. "Mrs. Whitlock, I'd like to invite Natalie over." Cecilia's breathing beclabored.
"Over my dead body!" A stern voice behind them boomed.
It was Peter. He entered the ward while the two of them were distracted by the phone call.
"I will not allow that woman to chere!" Peter's tone was firm, a vein surfacing on his neck as he struggled to keep calm.
To Peter, Natalie was nothing but a scourge. He would never invite a person that had brought bad luck to his family to cover.
Matthew's eyes flicked towards Cecilia.
Cecilia also cback to reality after a moment's daze.
She agreed with Peter's decision. "I'm sorry, Matthew, but I don't want her to ctoo." Ever since Tobias got into this accident, Cecilia's attitude towards Natalie had completely changed.
She no longer wanted Tobias to have anything to do with Natalie.
Matthew's brows furrowed.
He whispered in Cecilia's ear, "Mrs. Whitlock, I would like to speak to you in private."
Though both Peter and Cecilia didn't agree to bring Natalie over, Peter's face was filled with disdain and m е hatred at the mention of her name. thedain However, Cecilia didn't show any of those emotions. Matthew believed that he could persuade Cecilia.
"Mrs. Whitlock, as you can see, Tobias is still unconscious despite you inviting all the world's I's experts here." Matthew's gaze fell on Cecilia's face. Cecilia blinked frantically, trying to hold back her tears. Bitterness surged inside her.
X Indeed, there was nothing they could do about it. Tobias was obviously still alive, but how was it that he still couldn't wake up? Tobias had always been a lively and energetic person, and he would never want to lie in bed all day for so long.
