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.
It was as if he was afraid that he would lose the opportunity to see her if he blinked his eyes.
At the same time, Tim, who was twirling his scalpel while standing aside, suddenly felt that he was intruding on their moment.
Still, he wouldn’t leave no matter what since this was his place after all.
On the other hand, Sonia could sense Toby staring at her, so she stopped cleaning his arm and turned toward him. “What’s wrong?”
However, he shook his head. “Nothing’s wrong.”
She couldn’t help but tilt her head while giving a ridiculous look. Nothing’s wrong? How can it be nothing when he keeps staring at me?
Still, Sonia didn’t force Toby to say anything since he was unwilling to do so and she merely turned around to continue with cleaning his arm.
Once she was done cleaning Toby’s arm, Tim reapplied the medicine on Toby’s arm before bandaging it.
Despite not having to wear a cast anymore, Toby still needed to wear the cast support on his neck. Even though it was inconvenient, he nevertheless wore it since it wasn’t as heavy as before.
When they returned to the car, Tom reported, “President Fuller, I’ve already asked the investigators to check every doctor and medical team who are involved in the research of ALS and I believe that we will be able to collect information from them within these two days.”
Toby nodded. “Get our men to trail the medical personnels who are involved once we are done collecting the information.”
“Yes,” Tom replied with a nod whereas Sonia remained silent during the men’s entire exchange as she had nothing to say.
She wasn’t as powerful as Toby, who was able to instruct hundreds of men to carry out his commands with just a word, so she really couldn’t assist them in locating Tina and could only rely on Toby to do so.
Hence, she had never asked or tried to interrupt Toby’s way of searching for Tina.
About half an hour later, they finally arrived at the Bayside Residence.
