He wanted to confess everything to Selina.
Even though he knew that this would embarrass him and even ruin his friendship with Selina, he had no choice but to do so for Yesseca's sake.
Lothar arrived at the hospital.
He made his way to Matthew's ward.
The door was ajar. Lothar was about to enter but what came into his sight halted him in his tracks.
Through the crack of the door, he saw two people kissing.
It was Matthew and Selina.
They were locked in a tight embrace, kissing passionately.
Lothar's felt his heart drop.
He knew that Matthew and Selina were a couple. Of course they would be more intimate, let alone just kissing.
However, watching them together was like a slap of reality.
Lothar immediately turned around and leaned against the wall.
He didn't want to interrupt them.
However, the wait was unexpectedly difficult for him.
It was as if a raging fire had engulfed his entire being, burning him to the core.
He wondered how would Selina react if he were to confess to her right then.
She would be shocked, angry, and even disappointed!
He guessed that Selina didn't have any friends as she was always by herself.
Furthermore, she would always come to him whenever she was feeling down.
Selina must think of him as her best friend.
However, if she knew that her best friend was harboring different thoughts about her, she would be heartbroken.
Lothar's heart ached when he thought of how miserable Selina would be.
The pain was unbearable.
Lothar clenched his fists tightly.
He was a grown man.
He should be able to protect the people he loved.
Except he had failed miserably.
At first, he'd only befriended Selina for Reid's money.
He even planned to seek Selina out to beg her to save his sister.
How could he do this!
He was an honorable and dignified man!
How could he be so despicable!
He should have handled Yesseca's matters by himself, but instead, he was planning on relying on Selina!
Lothar gritted his teeth in anger.
He absolutely loathed himself for being so weak.
After taking a few moments to collect his thoughts, he finally made up his mind.
He hurriedly left the hospital.
Matthew and Selina finally ended their kiss.
They rested their forehead against each other.
They were savoring what little time they had together as Matthew would be discharged from the hospital later that night.
For most people, that would be great news.
However, for the two of them, it wasn't something to celebrate about.
Saoirse had left Matthew alone since their last encounter went south.
However, now that Matthew was discharged, Saoirse would no longer have any apprehensions. She would definitely come for Matthew again.
When Selina realized that this was their last few moments of peace, mixed feelings began to grow in her.
They could only seek comfort in each other arms.
Time slowly passed, and the night had finally arrived.
The driver had come to pick them up.
Matthew and Selina got into the car.
They remained silent throughout the car ride but their hands were tightly interwined.
When they arrived home, Erine welcomed them with a table of delicious food.
