When the cable car came for them, everyone stopped talking and got into it. After they came back to the villa, Sonia saw the cook sending off the doctor.

“Seems like Tina’s fine.” Rebecca crossed her arms.

Charles pouted. “Of course she is. That woman’s not gonna die that easily.”

“Alright, stop arguing and let’s go.” Sonia looked away and went into the villa, followed by Charles and the others.

Toby was making calls when they came in. When he saw Sonia and the others, he averted his gaze.

“Is Miss Gray okay, Toby?” Zane knew Tina was fine, but he asked Toby out of courtesy so that he wouldn’t look too indifferent.

“She’s fine. The snake wasn’t venomous.” Toby put his phone down.

“What a shame,” Rebecca suddenly said.

A frown creased Toby’s forehead, and his anger flared. He looked at Rebecca coldly before turning his attention to Zane. “You’d better keep her in check,” he said coldly.

Before Zane could reply, Charles laughed. “Well, I think Miss Harper’s right. It’s a shame the snake was harmless. Bet you don’t know this is all her own doing, Mr. Fuller.”

“What are you trying to say?” Toby squinted. At that moment, he realized this accident might not be a coincidence at all.

Charles wrapped his arm around Sonia’s shoulder. “What I’m saying is that Tina knew the snake was there all along. She wanted to get the snake to attack Sonia, but Rebecca managed to get Sonia to duck in time, so the snake ended up biting Tina instead.”

Toby froze for a moment, apparently shocked by the truth of the accident. “Is this true?” He looked at Sonia.

Sonia looked away, refusing to have any eye contact with him. Her silence annoyed Toby, but he didn’t let it show.
