This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 299

Chapter 299 

In the clinic, the doctor was treating the burns on the back of Toby‘s hand. 

With a stiffened expression on the face, Sonia watched from the side with her hands balled up into fists. “Doctor, will this leave any long–term side effects?” 

She heard that there are many nerves on the hand, so she feared that if this affected the nerves in his hand, he wouldn‘t be able to carry out basic tasks in the future. 

If that were the case, she wouldn‘t be able to compensate him because he had suffered those injuries for her sake. 

Toby noticed the frown on Sonia‘s face coupled with the anxiety in her eyes, so he said softly, “Don‘t worry, my hand will be fine.” 

Sonia knew that he was saying this to make her feel better, so she disregarded him. She simply stared at the doctor expectantly, waiting for his answer. 

The doctor discarded the bloodied cotton swab, then replied, “His hand should be fine. The area of contact with sulfuric acid wasn‘t very large, so it only eroded the 

 

surface. You just have to wait until the skin grows back, and it‘ll be fine. Some scars might remain, however.” 

Hearing the doctor‘s words, Sonia finally relaxed. “That‘s good to hear.” 

Toby‘s expression grew gentle. “See, didn‘t I say so?” 

Sonia rolled her eyes at him. 

Just then, her phone rang, so she took it out to see that it was a call from Charles. She didn‘t even hesitate as she walked out of the clinic with her phone. 

Toby managed to catch a glimpse of the incoming call notification on Sonia‘s phone, and seeing how she excused herself to answer the call, he couldn‘t help but feel upset about it. His emotions showed in his downcast expression, and he clenched his hand on the table. 

The doctor pushed his glasses awkwardly at the sight. “Um, sir, please relax your hand. It‘s difficult for me to apply ointment when you‘re clenching it so tightly like that.” 

Toby‘s eyebrows scrunched up, but in the end, he did as he was told and released the fist. 

Still, his gaze was indefinitely locked on the door leading to the clinic. 

Outside the clinic, Sonia answered the call and put her phone to her ear. “Charles.”
