“What?” Sonia was shocked. Although she knew Tina was going to hurt her, she didn’t expect Tina to threaten to kill her. “You want to kill me?” She tightened her grip around her phone and intentionally raised her voice.
Toby’s face darkened the moment he heard Sonia’s words. As soon as he alighted from the car, he immediately scurried toward the building while trying to calm his distraught mind. I can’t believe Tina is trying to kill Sonia!
On the other hand, Tina’s eyes brightened with malicious glee. “Be careful with what you’re saying, Miss Reed. You will cause your own death in an accident, which I have nothing to do with.”
She slowly walked toward Sonia. In fact, she had never given up on her thought to eliminate
Sonia, but ever since the incident in the resort, she never found a chance to execute her evil plan until the discovery of Sonia’s pregnancy had prompted her to do the worst thing. I must get rid of Sonia before everyone else finds out about her pregnancy, or it’s going to be over for me.
Tina soon clamped Sonia’s shoulders with her clutches before she gave a sinister smile and pushed Sonia toward the edge of the stairs. As Tina had the upper hand in the battle, Sonia wasn’t fighting back because she was in heels and it wasn’t long until she found herself near the edge of the stairs.
“Meet your demise.” Then, Tina pushed Sonia down with all her energy; the impact had sent Sonia backward onto the flight of stairs. At the same time, Tina stood on the top and stared at the horrified look on Sonia’s face, waving at her and saying, “Farewell!”
Deep in her heart, she believed Sonia would fall to her death, considering the height of the stairs. Even if Sonia didn’t immediately die from the fall, she would make sure Sonia was dead.
When Sonia rolled down the stairs and was about to hit the ground, a silhouette suddenly emerged from downstairs to spread his arms to break her fall. However, the huge impact had toppled the man and sent him flying toward the wall, which caused him to hit it hard with his back. As his face twisted in pain with a layer of cold sweat coating his forehead, she suffered from an excruciating pain in her stomach with her limbs going numb, but fortunately, she survived the fall.
On the other hand, Tina, who was looking forward to witnessing Sonia’s death, stood atop the stairs in disbelief when her wish didn’t come true. What stunned her even more was that Sonia’s lifesaver turned out to be none other than Toby. The shocking realization instantly caused Tina’s face to pale and rendered her panicky, making her wonder why Toby would show up at that spot.
On the other hand, Toby endured the pain in his back and helped Sonia to her feet. Then, he painfully asked in a hushed tone, “Are you alright?”
In fact, Sonia was able to tell that her lifesaver was Toby from his perfume when he hugged her in his embrace to cushion her from the fall. Thus, she didn’t seem to be surprised as she rubbed her belly and shook her head while answering in a trembling voice, “Yeah, I’m fine.”
“Good to hear that.” Toby heaved a sigh of relief, feeling lucky and grateful for being able to prevent a tragedy. That was close. Sonia would have lost her life had I failed to show up in time.
Despite his successful rescue, he still shuddered at the thought of how close the tragedy was about to befall her. Thank God I arrived in the nick of time.
“What about you? Are you okay?” Sonia asked while she looked at him in panic. Oh man! He just saved me once again.
Toby slightly avoided her gaze. “I’m good.”
“Are you sure you’re okay?” Sonia didn’t believe Toby’s answer because she thought she had just heard his painful moan. It was just that she wasn’t sure about it since she was in extreme fear earlier.
“Yes, I’m sure,” he reassured her, trying to endure the pain in his back.
While the both of them expressed their concerns for each other, Tina cast aside her jealousy and tried to sneak away silently. However, when she was about to reach the door, Toby’s glacial voice was heard from behind. “Stay where you are!”
She froze as she subconsciously stopped in her tracks.
“Turn around!” he demanded.
Tina slowly turned with her head down as she lacked the courage to look him in the eye. “Toby
