Chapter 549 Daphne Is Acting Weirdly

When Toby heard that he still needed to wear the cast support, he frowned. Despite being unwilling to do so, he didn’t comment about it.

“I’ll go and get some water for you to clean your arm then.” Sonia stared at Toby’s left arm before saying those words while Toby, who was unable to stand the cast on his arm, mumbled an acknowledgement. “Sure.”

Then, she let go of him before she went to the bathroom.

The moment she left, his expression was devoid of emotions as his pained look earlier disappeared.

At that moment, Tim stared at Toby’s arm before he questioned with a ghost of a smile, “How is it? Are you not going to maintain your act?”

However, Toby’s only response was to give Tim a nonchalant look without being bothered.

Nonetheless, Tim wasn’t planning to let Toby off the hook as he adjusted his spectacles again. “I’m really surprised by your act to fake being in pain.”

“That’s the only way for me to be closer to her without her pushing me away,” Toby explained nonchalantly as he pursed his lips.

Despite that, Tim chuckled. “It’s weird to see the leader of the Fuller Family being humble for love.”

Toby lowered his gaze. “I don’t mind doing it to make up for all the things that I did back then.”

Moreover, he would only be humble toward Sonia and he didn’t think making himself humble to the one he loved was an embarrassing thing to admit.

Instead, being able to humble himself also proved that he had really loved her.

“Here’s your water.” Sonia came out of the washroom with a bowl of warm water while Tim moved aside to inform her, “You should help him to clean his arm. Do it gently, though.”

“Alright. I understand.” She nodded before she placed the bowl aside and twisted the towel in the bowl dry. Then, she placed the warm towel on Toby’s arm before gently removing the cast and the remaining medicine on his arm.

At this moment, Sonia was completely focused on cleaning his arm and Toby stared at her without blinking.
