Chapter 987
"No, that's not necessary.” Sonia quickly gestured no before he walked over. "I'm not crippled, so why would I need you to carry me over there?"
After she said that, she lowered her head and started to put on her shoes.
Toby stood still by her side and lifted his perfectly-shaped brows. "Are you sure that you don't need my help?"
“Yes, I am.” She was done putting on her shoes when she nodded at him.
He snorted. "Alright, I'll wait and see whether you're able to make it there by yourself."
Perhaps she was mistaken, but she seemed to detect a hint of mockery in his voice.
She lifted her head to look at him for a moment, but she could not tell from his expression, so she shook her slightly fuzzy head. "Why won't I be able to get there? Look carefully. I definitely can do it!"
As she said that, she stood up abruptly.
However, as soon as she rose to her feet, she felt her knees weaken and she immediately tumbled forward.
Instantly, her expression changed and she yelled out in fright.
As soon as Toby noticed that, he took a step forward calmly and reached out to hold her.
She fell into his arms and she could smell the minty scent on his body as well as his body warmth. Finally, she heaved a sigh of relief. Thank goodness I didn't land on the ground. If she had fallen directly headfirst to the ground, then it was quite likely that her teeth would be chipped.
"How are you feeling? Are you fine?" Toby carried her in his arms and placed her back on the edge of the bed.
Sonia sat down and shook her head with quite a startled look. "I'm fine."
"Do you realize now why I insisted on carrying you over?" He stood in front of her with his arms crossed and there was a teasing look on his face.
At this point, her face was bright red. "Did you know that this was going to happen from the start?"
Toby was non-committal; after all, he clearly knew how much he had gone overboard last night. Otherwise, she would not have left scratches and a bite mark on his body out of a frenzy. As such, he was aware of the state that she would be in the next morning, so he was prepared to take care of her. However, she was stubborn and refused his help by insisting to do things all by herself. In the end, she had to learn her lesson the hard way.
As Toby thought about that, he glanced at the stubborn woman and smiled resignedly. "Are you still sure that you don't need my help?"
Sonia pursed her lips tightly and finally opened up her arms. "Carry me." Whatever. I'll just relax, then. Her knees were weakened and she could not really move about, so there was no point in rejecting help since he insisted on serving her.
He noticed the nonchalant and indifferent stance that she maintained and there was a doting look that flashed across his eyes. He bent his back and carried her in his arms toward the direction of the bathroom.
He knew that she was the type to easily get bashful, so he did not offer to help her remove her clothes or stand guard outside the bathroom. He merely carried her into the bathroom and then confirmed that she was able to hold on to a surface and maintain her standing up stance before leaving the bathroom to wait for her outside.
Truth be told, as she looked at his retreating figure, she heaved a sigh of relief. She was worried that he would want to keep an eye on her as she relieved herself. After all, he was thick-skinned and those words were quite likely to come out of his mouth. Luckily for her, he did not do that.
She exhaled slightly and uncovered the toilet bowl to get down to business.
Meanwhile, Toby leaned against the wall next to the bathroom and waited patiently. As soon as he heard the sound of flushing from inside, he stood up straight immediately and opened the door to enter the bathroom.
"Are you done?" He stood by the entrance with one hand holding onto the door knob.
Sonia held onto the edge of the basin and came to stand in front of it. "No, I'm about to freshen up."
He nodded. "Alright then, take your time. I'll wait outside." After he said that, he let go of his grip on the doorknob and walked toward her. He decided to wait next to her this time instead of outside.
She ignored him as she was not going to use the throne this time and she was just freshening up, so she was not worried about him peeping. She did not mind it as long as he did not disrupt her by causing trouble.
