Chapter 382 I Shall Protect You

“Thank god.” Zane patted his chest in relief. “Who did this?”

“No idea. We’re still looking into it, but we should have the results tomorrow,” Sonia answered.

Zane sighed regrettably. “I see. Here I thought I could help.”

“It’s fine. Just take Douglas home. He’s been staying with me at the hospital for a while now. Didn’t even eat or sleep well. It’s not good for a kid, so just take him home and let him rest.”

Zane knew Sonia just wanted him to leave, so he nodded despondently. “I see. I’ll come tomorrow then. Douglas, say goodbye to a… Miss Sonia.”

“Goodbye, auntie.” Douglas waved at her.

Sonia couldn’t see him, but she waved as well.

Zane took Douglas and left, leaving Sonia alone. The sudden silence scared her, especially when she was blind. The more time passed, the worse her fear got, for she never knew who might come in her ward the next second. It could be someone like Titus, and if he did come, she would be dead in no time.

“Anyone there?” Sonia asked. She wanted to call the caretaker back.

The caretaker left after Zane came, but she had been missing since. Where is she? Sonia wouldn’t be so afraid with her around. At least she’d know who her visitor was.

“Mrs. Taters? Mrs. Taters!” Sonia held her blanket, calling out to her caretaker loudly.

Just then, a familiar deep voice sounded. “What is it?”

Toby! Sonia’s eyes widened, but her fear dissipated. She heaved a sigh of relief and shook her head. “I’m fine. I’m just scared because I’m alone, and I can’t see anything. I wanted to get Mrs. Taters back, but she isn’t here. Good thing you came though.”
