Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again
Chapter 467 Return Sonia nodded. âA little bit.â
âAll right, darling. Since the baby is gone, you shouldnât think too much about that anymore.â Charles patted her shoulder.
Once again, Sonia nodded. âI know. Letâs go to the hospital.â
Her intention to head to the hospital was indeed concerning, even putting a frown on his face. âYouâre going to see Toby right now?â
âNow that Iâm back, I have to take care of him. Anything wrong with that?â Sonia looked at Charles, but he pouted. âNot really. Itâs just that you havenât even taken some rest before going to see him. Itâs almost like youâre obsessed with him.â
âI already told you that itâs nothing like that; Iâm just repaying his kindness. Come on, stop saying nonsense and just drive.â Sonia closed her eyes and refused to continue the conversation.
Left with no choice, Charles glanced at her from the corner of his eye. The look in his eyes darkened, but he said nothing more.
Upon arriving at First World Hospital, Sonia opened her eyes and got out of the car. She took her luggage from the trunk, after which she stood by the road to peer at Charles through the window. âGoodbye.â
âAre you sure you donât want me to wait for you? I can take you back to Bayside Residence later,â Charles asked as he placed his arm out the window.
Sonia shook her head. âItâs fine. I donât know when Iâll be leaving either, so I canât make you wait. Just go ahead.â
âWell, if you say so.â Charles shrugged and rolled up the car window.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, prompting him to roll down the car window once again. Sonia was already making her way into the hospital when she heard him shouting, âWait, darling!â
âWhatâs wrong?â Sonia stopped walking and turned around.
Charles replied, âMy mom had asked you to visit her when youâre free. You remember that, donât you?â
Sonia nodded. âOf course. But my eyes hadnât recovered then, so I wanted to visit her after the recovery.â
âNow that your eyes have fully recovered, when are you going to see her?â Charles seemed to want her to set an actual date.
Sonia cocked her head to one side as she thought for a while. âTomorrow, I think. Iâll go tomorrow night.â
âSure.â Charles gestured an âOKâ sign toward her. âIâll inform my mom later.â
âAll right. Thanks so much, Charles.â Sonia beamed at him as usual.
Charles waved his hand. âDonât sweat it. Iâll get going now, and you, try not to stay too long in the hospital. Just visit Toby for a little while, then go home and rest.â
âOkay.â Sonia nodded.
Charles rolled up the windows, after which he drove away. On the other hand, Sonia stood by the road, and only when his car disappeared from sight did she turn around and enter the hospital.
As soon as she entered the lobby, she saw Tim leading a patient in the opposite direction, and he seemed to catch sight of her as well. He said something to the patient, upon which he walked toward Sonia. âHey, youâre back.â
âI sure am.â Sonia had a slight grin on her face.
Tim placed his hands in his coat pockets. âHowâs your back?â
âMuch better. It doesnât hurt so often anymore,â Sonia touched her own back as she replied.
âThatâs good to know.â Tim nodded in satisfaction before he asked, âAre you visiting Toby?â
âYes. I wouldnât be here otherwise.â Sonia nodded to confirm his question.
Habitually, Tim slightly adjusted his glasses. âGo ahead, then. He should be done with the examinations by now, so he must still be awake.â
âAll right, Iâll get going then.â Sonia waved goodbye, whereupon she walked toward the elevator with her luggage in hand.
After Tim saw her off, he returned to the patient. The patient was an elderly man over 70 years old. He was one of Timâs regular patients, which explained why they seemed to be familiar with each other. When he saw Tim return, he grinned as he asked, âDr. Lancaster, is that your girlfriend?â
âNo.â Tim shook his head.
The older man didnât give up. âA love interest, then?â
Tim smiled. âNo. Sheâs my benefactor.â
He wasnât any ordinary Joe, so how would he know anything about relationships? Even if he did, he would never fall in love. To him, relationships were nothing more than burdens.
It wasnât long before Sonia found Tobyâs ward, but the door was closed. She reached up and knocked on the door.
âWho is it?â Tobyâs impersonal voice came from within.
Sonia put down her hand. âPresident Fuller, itâs me.â
Sonia!
Toby was stunned for a moment, but soon after, joy replaced the shocked expression on his face.
Sheâs back!
âOpen the door, Tom,â he ordered.
Tom was organizing documents on the small table at the side. When he heard the order, he pushed his glasses and stood up. âUnderstood, President Fuller.â
Tom walked toward the door and opened it. When Sonia saw Tom, she greeted him, saying, âHi, Mr. Brown.â
âHello, Miss Reed,â Tom responded nonchalantly, then he moved aside to make space for Sonia. âPresident Fuller permits your entrance.â
âThank you.â Sonia nodded slightly, then walked in, still lugging her luggage.
Tom didnât go in. Instead, he closed the door on his way out, knowing full well that Toby would want to be alone with Sonia. So, he decided not to be the third wheel.
âYouâre back.â As Toby looked at Sonia, his gaze softened.
Sonia nodded. âIâm back.â
âSince when?â
âJust now,â Sonia patted the handle of her luggage as she replied.
It was then that Toby finally realized Sonia had her luggage with her. His faint smile grew wider. She had just returned, but she came here right away to visit him without stopping by her house or dropping off her luggage first.
Does this mean that Iâve always been on her mind?
âWhat are you thinking about, President Fuller?â Seeing Tobyâs lowered gaze and sudden daydreaming, Sonia couldnât help but wave her hands as she asked.
Tobyâs eyes shimmered for a while before he shook his head slightly. âItâs nothing. Have a seat.â
He pointed at the seat where Tom was sitting just now, and Sonia walked over to sit down, but her stomach suddenly growled.
Immediately, her face flushed red as she covered her tummy. âUm...â
âYou havenât eaten?â Toby frowned.
Sonia opened her mouth to speak, but after thinking for a while, she admitted, âYeah. I was in a hurry, so I didnât get to eat.â
So embarrassing! Sonia thought.
She had just arrived here, but her stomach was already growling, so she felt horribly awkward. Hearing that Sonia really hadnât eaten, Toby pursed his lips into a tight line. Displeasure was written all over his face.
Itâs almost 2 pm, but she hasnât had lunch! Is this how Charles takes care of her?
Toby didnât say anything. He just took out his phone and dialed Tomâs number. âTom, buy some lunch and bring it up.â
Hearing that, Sonia hastily reached out her hand to stop Toby. âYou donât have to do this, President Fuller. Iâll just eat after this.â
Toby ignored her and spoke into the phone. âAnd make it quick.â
With that, he put down his phone and looked at Sonia. âJust wait a little longer; youâll get to eat very soon.â
Sonia moved her lips as if she was about to say something, but in the end, she kept quiet as she swallowed her words.
Gosh! Talk about embarrassing!
She was supposed to take care of him, but he was already getting worried about her before she could do so.

Toby seemed to have read Soniaâs thoughts. He raised his hand in order to caress her hair, providing what little comfort he could offer. However, he retracted his hand before he could touch her. âDonât mind it too much. Youâre my temporary caregiver, so itâs natural to keep you fed. If you donât eat, you wonât have enough energy to take care of me, right?â he parted his thin lips and said.
Sonia bit her lip but gave him a smile in the end. âI just realized that you always find a way to convince me.â
âBecause I understand you. And thatâs why I know the ways to move your heart.â Toby looked at her with a serious expression on his face.
