My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 700

Yuna hesitated momentarily before she continued, "That explosion would also have violently shaken up that metal container, not to mention the fact that it fell into the sea. Tobias might have straight up fainted from the shockwave."

The more Peter listened to Yuna's analysis, the more frightened he became.

He did not dare to imagine whether Tobias would still be alive if he had been a second late.

The more he thought about it, the more grateful he felt towards Yuna.

If it weren't for her, he would have long since assumed that Tobias was already dead and wouldn't have sent anyone to investigate his whereabouts.

"Yuna, it's all thanks to you. If Tobias can wake up..." Peter trailed off halfway into his sentence.

After all, it was still a question as to whether Tobias would be able to regain consciousness or not, or ever again.

Meanwhile, over at Natalie's apartment.

It was approaching the dead of night, and Yvonne had already fallen asleep.

However, sleep would not come to Natalie no matter how hard she tried.

All she could think of was Tobias.

Why was it taking so long for Tobias to come back?

Natalie suddenly climbed out of bed.

She put on a coat and went downstairs.

She had a constant nagging feeling that Tobias would be downstairs waiting for her outside his car as he did in the past.

But when she came downstairs, there was no one there.

She could not find any trace of Tobias.

Natalie could not help but glance around amidst the darkness. There was still no one.

Disappointment was written all over her face.

Natalie returned to the apartment and flopped down on the bed.

Tobias was everywhere, like the air surrounding her.

Her yearning was honestly about to drive her over the edge.

It was to the point that the thought of Tobias possibly not being alive crossed Natalie's mind.

However, Natalie forced herself not to think that way.

Tobias being alive was the only thing keeping her going, her only faith.

How could she let her faith disappear?

He'd only gone somewhere far, far away. It might take him a long time, but he'd definitely come back.

Five days later, Selina made a phone call to Peter.

Peter's hesitant attitude over the phone greatly annoyed Selina.

She couldn't help raising her voice. "Grandpa, just tell me what you're up to instead of hiding it from me like this! You promised me you'd tell me in five days, and it's been five days. If you don't tell me, then you're going back on your word. Grandpa, since when did you become someone who broke promises?"

Peter was speechless.

He could not do anything about his quick-witted granddaughter.

In the end, Peter asked Selina to come to the United States in person.

On the way there, Selina already had a brief idea of what to expect. However, when she actually saw Tobias in the ICU ward with a variety of tubes stuck to him, tears couldn't help streaming down her cheeks.

"How... how could Tobias have become like this?"

He was her almighty brother, and he could do anything. How could he end up like this?

He laid motionless on the bed, wearing an oxygen mask with terrifying tubes connected to all parts of his body.

Peter glared at Selina. "It was you who wanted to see him!"

Unlike Selina, Peter had already spent so many days here. He had pretty much accepted the fact that Tobias was in a vegetative state.

Selina's eyes were full of tears, and her tone was sharp. "He's my brother! Can't I see him?"
