Then she turned to Tobias and said, "Tobias, you promised me. How could you do this?" Natalie stepped forward quickly and hugged Selina as she sobbed. "Don't worry, Selina. I'm the only one who knows. Mom and Matthew have no clue. I forced Tobias to tellthe truth." Selina was slightly relieved.
Natalie hugged Selina. "Silly girl, why didn't you tellabout this? I am your sister-in-law. We met when we were 19 and have always been close. How can you not tellthat such a thing has happened?" Selina felt guilty as Natalie began to interrogate her.
She murmured, "Natalie, I didn't mean to lie to you. I didn't want you to worry about me. My illness can't be cured. How could I just let you watch as I died?" Hearing about death made Natalie even more upset.
Tears flowed down her face.
Selina wanted to cry too, but she forced herself to stop.
She took a breath and then laughed. "Natalie, I'm the one dying and I'm not even crying. How can you cry?" Natalie released Selina from her arms and wiped away her tears. "Okay, I won't cry. I won't cry." At noon, the three of them had lunch together.
It was a particularly silent meal.
After dinner, Natalie pulled Selina aside.
She said in a very serious tone, "Selina, tell me, do you really want to hide this from Matthew? Are you really not going to tell him?" Selina smiled sarcastically. "Natalie, why would I tell Matthew? I can't have him watch or accompanyas I becan old woman and eventually die. Natalie, I can't do it." "But this is very cruel to Matthew. Do you know that Matthew gets drunk at heveryday after you leave?" Selina lowered her eyes, and her thick eyelashes trembled. She said, "Natalie, he must be in pain now. I know that, but rest assured that he will be fine after a while. He will be fine." "But what if he's not?" "No, he will be fine." Selina looked up, her eyes full of certainty. "I betrayed him and got rid of his child. When he comes to his senses, he will hate me. He won't loveanymore, so his heart can accommodate other women. But if he knows about my death, he will remember and lovefor a lifetime. I don't want him to be like this. I want him to get married in the future and have his own children. I don' want him to live a lonely life." Natalie was shocked by what Selina said.
She had always thought that Matthew contributed more to their relationship, that Matthew loved Selina more. But now she realized that Selina loved Matthew too, and her love wasn't any less than his.
Tobias took Natalie away at night.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie wanted to stay with Selina for her final days, but Selina objected.
She didn't want Natalie to witness as she grew older. Besides, her stay would cause suspicion.
"Natalie, letspend my final days in peace. Your presence would makefeel uncomfortable." Selina said. Tobias shot Natalie a glance.
He was asking Natalie to respect Selina's wishes.
Natalie left in the end.
As they were on the way back to the Whitlock family's villa, Natalie suddenly said, "Tobias, taketo the Perry family." Tobias held his breath.
His voice was a little sour. "Natalie, Selina doesn't want Matthew to find out. Respect her wishes." Natalie gave a wry smile. "Tobias, I know. Don't worry, I'll respect Selina's wishes. I want to go to the Perry family to help Matthew, and even more so to help Selina." Tobias looked at Natalie in confusion.
Natalie's eyes looked gloomy.
"Selina hopes that after she dies Matthew will be able to get married and find his own happiness. Sel have to cheer Matthew up. This way, Selina will be able to go in peace!" Tobias wasn't optimistic about what Natalie said.
As a man, he knew what Matthew was thinking now.
It was even possible that he might not be able to get out.
Selina's wishes for Matthew to find happiness and have children again after she left was probably just a fantasy.
It was just like if Natalie left him now too.
It was unrealistic for him to forget about Natalie and look for other women.
But he didn't tell Selina about it.
Because at that time, Selina was already very stubborn. Even if he told her, she wouldn't believe it.
Besides, it was good for Selina to have one last wish.
He had a wish that Selina could leave peacefully and without any regret.
But after Natalie's request, Tobias drove to the Perry family.
But he didn't go in.
"Natalie, I'll wait for you here." Natalie hoped that Tobias would go in with her, but she also understood that it was difficult for Tobias.
Tobias hid the truth from Matthew, so it was normal that he couldn't face him.
She didn't force Tobias to accompany her inside.
"I'll go in then." Natalie was about to get out of the car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Wait." Tobias suddenly grabbed Natalie's hand.
He looked into Natalie's eyes. "Matthew's current state isn't good, so just go and take a look. Don't say too much. You can't persuade Matthew either. Just stop when you're ready." Natalie bit her lip. "I'll try my best. I just want to help Selina." "I understand." Tobias City patted Natalie's hand. "I will wait for you." Natalie nodded and got out of the car.
She knocked when she was at the gate of the villa.
Erine came.
Seeing Natalie, Erine was ecstatic.
She looked behind Natalie but didn't see Selina anywhere.
Erine was confused. "Miss Godfrey, you didn't bring Miss Whitlock here." She thought that Natalie cwith Selina. After all, it was so late.
Natalie said in a sad tone, "No, I just cto see Matthew." The joy in Erine's eyes turned into disappointment.
She knew that it was useless for anyone to visit Matthew visit Matthew Only Selina would have an effect on him. However, since Natalie was already here, Erine welcomed her.
"Miss Godfrey, don't blme for thermisses m talking too much. I think that you still have to find Miss Whitlock.MP. Matthew misses Miss Whitlock. Now that she has disappeared Mr. Matthew is like a ghost. I don't know what happened."
