Chapter 995

Sonia nodded without hesitation. "Yeah, you've asked me to do a full medical check-up in concern of my health. It’s just the same for you because I'm worried about your health as well. I shouldn't be the only one doing it, right? That will be so unfair."

She shot Toby a glance in resentment as the medical check-up had never been easy, especially the gastroscopy, which was pure torture in her opinion.

Gazing at her protesting look, he fell into silence because he knew that she would think so if she was to do it alone. Besides, it would be suspicious to her and hence, he compromised.

He cleared his throat before saying, "Okay. I'll do it too."

Sonia broke into a smile when she heard that. "That's great! I'll accompany you here a few days later."

Staring at her crescent-like eyes, he shook his head in helplessness. "Alright."

It was already 2.00AM when they arrived at Bayside Residence. Sonia had lost the fight against drowsiness and fell asleep along the way home.

Still, Toby could not bring himself to wake her up when they reached her place. So, he carried her in bridal style to the elevator to bring her back to her apartment.

Then, he helped to remove her make-up and washed her face, as well as brushing her teeth, treating her like a queen. The time struck three once he had finished all of those. Even if he had a strong and healthy physique, he felt tired.

When he joined her in bed, he looked down at the woman who cuddled into his embrace instinctively as she sensed something warm. Letting out a silent chuckle, he whispered 'goodnight' before hugging her and closing his eyes.

It was 6.00AM when Toby's ringing phone woke him up. He opened his eyes to see the dark sky. One could still see the moon in the gray sky outside the half-covered window.

He then averted his gaze and grabbed his phone to pick up the call. Instead of placing the phone next to his ear, he turned to stare at the sleeping woman in his arms.
