Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1351

Sonia was startled as she glanced at Toby. Thinking that the man didn't mean to upset her, she wasn't mad at him. Then, she placed the quilt over him again. To her chagrin, the man lifted the quilt again the next moment. Certainly, she now realized that the man was doing it intentionally.

Furious, she placed her palms on her hips and glared at the man. "What are you doing, Toby? Why do you keep lifting the quilt? Are you trying to mess with me?"

"No, I'm not." Toby shook his head.

Sonia sneered. "Is that so? Why do you keep pushing the quilt away, then?"

"I just want you to sleep with me." Toby glanced at her and patted the spot beside him.

Sonia caught herself for a moment. "That's it?"

Toby nodded. "Yes."

Torn between tears and laughter, Sonia said, "I thought you wanted to pull a prank on me all of a sudden." After all, the man had done such a thing to her before.

Toby rubbed his nose. "I won't do that. Come here." He patted the spot beside him again and looked expectantly at her.

Nevertheless, Sonia shook her head. "No. I'd better get some sleep in the lounge. If I sleep beside you, I might accidentally irritate your wound at night." Therefore, sleeping separately would be a better idea, and it was the best solution for both of them.

However, the man insisted that they should sleep together, for he didn't want to be apart from her. In fact, he hadn't slept with her or pulled her into his embrace for far too long. He longed to kiss and hug her. More importantly, he wanted to bed her.

With that said, he couldn't possibly do the deed with her at this moment. Regardless, he still wanted to kiss and hug Sonia. At the very least, he had to satisfy part of his desire.

When Sonia saw his desire nearly spilling from the man's gaze, her heart softened. She didn't have the heart to turn him down. If she did that, she was worried the man would break into tears. "Are you not worried that I might accidentally touch your wound at night?" she asked.

Knowing that she had a change of mind, the man shook his head as his gaze brightened. "I'm not worried at all. Moreover, you're usually quiet and still in your sleep."

Hearing that, Sonia could only agree to his request. "Alright, then. I'll sleep with you tonight. However, if I accidentally touch your wound, you have to wake me up. You mustn't endure the pain, got it? Otherwise, I won't sleep with you again." She pointed at him with a solemn expression.

Realizing that she was serious, Toby nodded hurriedly. "Sure, I won't be silent. Don't worry."

"Alright. Get some rest now. I'll wash up and join you later." Sonia covered him with the quilt again.

This time, Toby didn't push the quilt away. With her mind at ease, Sonia shuffled into the bathroom and washed up. Then, she decided to wash the clothes that Toby and she had changed out of. It wasn't until two hours later that she was done with all those.

Toby had been eager during this period as he kept stretching his neck to look in the bathroom's direction, waiting for her to come back and sleep with him. However, after he waited for a long time, the woman was still nowhere in sight. When she finally stepped out of the bathroom, she entered it again.

As he watched her enter and leave the bathroom repeatedly, his expectation turned into disappointment. He was going through such a mood swing that it felt as though he was on a roller-coaster.

When he finally saw the woman coming toward him, he knew that he wouldn't be disappointed. A smile reappeared on his face as he said, "You're finally back. What took you so long?"

Sonia sat down beside the bed and fished out her toiletry bag before applying some skincare products on her face, which was her bedtime routine. "Well, it usually takes a woman a long time to wash up. Why aren't you asleep yet? Was I too noisy?"

"No, I just didn't want to sleep yet." Toby didn't move his gaze away from her. "I wanted to wait for your return, but I didn't know you'd take so long."

Sonia looked up at the ceiling as she let the man mess around. "You have to start thinking about it now. I think your grandma will ask us to go back to the old manor and keep her company. Since it's Christmas, we can't possibly turn her down. How are we going to explain to her about your condition?"

After giving it some thought, Toby replied, "We'll just tell her the truth."

Sonia was surprised. "Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"But…"

"Don't worry. My grandma isn't a frail person." Toby put on a smile. "If we had told her earlier, she probably couldn't have accepted it. However, since I'm fine now, I'm sure she'll be okay with it. As such, there's nothing to worry about. Moreover, I think it's a good idea to tell her the truth. At the very least, she'll be at ease knowing there won't be any problems with my heart in the future."

Finding him sensible, Sonia nodded. "You have a point. We'll tell her about it, then." She could also take this opportunity to apologize to Rose, for she almost caused her grandson to lose his life. "We'll tell the doctors about it three days later and leave the hospital temporarily. I suppose they'll agree to it," she said with uncertainty.

Toby dipped his head. "I'm sure they will. In fact, I'm fine now. It's just that my wound hasn't healed, and my heart is still in a slightly unstable condition. That's why I can't be discharged just yet. However, I'll be able to leave the hospital for a couple of hours."

"Alright, then." Sonia set her mind at ease.

Then, she suddenly felt her stomach churning as a sense of discomfort washed over her. She quickly turned over and started retching.

An anxious Toby promptly checked on her. Sonia knew that he would be worried, so when she felt slightly better, she turned over and stopped him. "Don't move. I'm fine."
