Chapter 639 Snuggle Into Her Blanket

As soon as Sonia heard Toby’s words, she paused in her actions of putting on hand cream, and she remained silent for quite some time before asking, “Didn’t Tim mention that we should focus our investigation on doctors that treat ALS and those hospitals that provide medical treatment for those patients? How did that go? Is there no news either?”

Toby nodded in response. “They didn’t find any organization or any doctors within these organizations that took in any new ALS patient. There were also no records of any out-patient treatment for ALS. As such, the investigation team concluded that Tina has no intention of seeking treatment for the abnormality she experienced.”

Upon hearing that, Sonia frowned. “She has no intention of treating her condition? Is she crazy?”

ALS was one of the worst terminal illnesses in this world and up till now, there was no cure for this disease. The only treatment plan available was simply to keep the symptoms under control.

Once one was diagnosed with ALS, if they didn’t seek treatment as soon as possible, they would swiftly develop stiffness in their body, followed by muscle atrophy and then finally, their whole body would become paralyzed. These patients ended up dying of torment.

Tina had resorted to switching her identity to run away in order to avoid going to jail so evidently, she wasn’t one who didn’t treasure her life.

On the contrary, she should be someone who treasured her life very much. Furthermore, she was intent on causing Sonia’s death.

Meanwhile, Sonia was still alive and well, so Tina obviously wouldn’t allow herself to die before the former. As such, Sonia couldn’t comprehend Tina’s behavior of not seeking medical treatment.

Despite Sonia’s confusion, she didn’t intend to let that trouble her as that was too taxing on her.

She continued to apply her hand cream and gently responded, “Let’s not think about all this. Wherever she is, as long as she has ALS, she will eventually slip up and appear. It’s quite late now, so why don’t you go to bed first?”

In all honesty, Sonia planned to get in bed once Toby had fallen asleep because she was not used to getting into bed with him there.

However, he didn’t heed her words and went to sleep first. Instead, he flung open her blanket and patted her side of the bed. “It is quite late now. Come on.”

His expectant look of waiting for her to get into bed made her grimace slightly upon seeing that.

In the end, Sonia shook her head. “No. You should go to sleep. I’ll go to bed once you’re asleep.”

Instantly, Toby understood the meaning behind her words. She’s shy!

Furthermore, they were neither in a relationship nor were they married to each other. Coupled with her shy personality, she couldn’t quite behave as naturally as him and get into bed so nonchalantly. As such, Sonia wanted to wait until he had fallen asleep before getting into the same bed as him to avoid further awkward moments between them.

However, Toby refused to listen to her this time.
