Chapter 876 Mentally Ill
Anya looked like a raving lunatic who was having a psychotic episode, and it was a ghastly sight to behold.
Sonia quickly stepped away just in case Anya tried to hurt her. At the same time, Toby leapt forward and supported her from behind. He was afraid that she might slip and fall, or perhaps knock into something as she stepped backward. If that happened, then he would probably be even more upset about it than she would.
“Here, wipe with this.” Toby took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Sonia. He pointed at her hand that had been clutching Anya’s jaw just a few moments ago.
Sonia grinned at him. “We really do think alike! I was just about to look for something to clean my hands with.”
She was about to rummage around her purse for a tissue, but Toby beat her to it by giving her his handkerchief.
Toby chuckled at her words. “If we think alike, then it means we’re meant to be together. You don’t even have to tell me what you want. With just one look, or a simple gesture, I’ll be able to tell what you’re thinking of, and what your heart desires.”
He would fulfill every single wish she had.
Sonia was deeply moved by Toby’s words. Once she was done cleaning her hands, she put the handkerchief away and pulled him into a warm hug. Toby froze for a second, but soon he smiled and wrapped his arms around her as well.
They were being very affectionate in front of Anya. If it had been any other time, Anya would have had a conniption by now, but she was currently out of her senses. Anya was still in a frenzied state and laughing maniacally as she babbled on and on. Neither Sonia nor Toby could understand what Anya was saying, as she spoke too fast and the words were incomprehensible. In any case, Anya really looked like she was mentally ill right now.
Sonia pulled away from Toby and frowned. She said solemnly, “It doesn’t look like she’s putting on an act.”
Toby hummed in agreement. To his eyes, it did not seem like Anya was acting either.
Sonia pursed her lips and continued, “She started having an episode after saying that the enmity between us was more than just those two times we clashed. What do you think she’s talking about? Do we have some sort of grudge or feud between us that I don’t know about? But I’ve never met her before in the past.”
Toby gave Sonia a comforting look. “Don’t think about it. She looks like she’s not well in the head right now, so it might just be her own hallucinations.”
Sonia nodded along. “It could be, but I never would’ve expected that she’d become so unstable.”
She glanced at Anya, who was still rather hysterical, and noted, “Perhaps she went through something.”
“Well, whatever it is that she’s gone through, it’s still none of our business. We’re not going to get anything out of her in her present state, so let’s leave.” Toby gently squeezed Sonia’s hand.
She nodded in agreement and followed him to the door. However, she paused when they reached the exit.
When Toby noticed that she had stopped, he paused as well and turned to her. “Is something the matter?”
Sonia shook her head, but turned back to take another look at Anya. Right now, Anya’s head was lowered and her eyes were glassy, but she was still muttering under her breath and occasionally letting out a delirious laugh. It was quite a chilling sight.
Toby narrowed his eyes in disgust at the sight of Anya, and he reached out to make Sonia face the front again. “That’s enough now. There’s nothing more to see, so don’t dirty your eyes with that unpleasant sight.”
Sonia chuckled. “I’ve never seen someone in such a frenzied state before. I’m a little curious, so I wanted to take a closer look.”
