Toby’s eyes glinted, and he hugged her even tighter. “Nothing. I just thought of something, but it’s not important.”
“Is that so?” Sonia leaned against his chest. She stopped asking him, even though she could feel that he was bogged down by something. If he doesn’t want to talk about it, then I won’t pry.
“Right. I’ll make a call, then we’ll have lunch.” Toby let her go.
Sonia got off his lap and nodded. “Sure. You do your job. I’ll call Zane
to thank him.”
Toby was about to leave, but he paused and turned around to say, “Don’t talk too long. Just say thank you and hang up.”
Sonia knew why he was saying that.
He just doesn’t want me to talk too long to other guys. He even listens in when I talk to Charles. Of course Zane will alert him. She waved him off. “Okay, okay, I get it. Just do your work.”
Toby went to the balcony, but after just taking a few steps, he stopped again. “Remember, just say thank you. Even if he tries to talk to you, just ignore him and hang up.”
Sonia rolled her eyes and waved him off once more, then Toby finally went to the balcony. She looked at him for a moment and shook her head, though she was smiling. She then picked her phone up and called Zane.
Toby closed the french window and made a call. It went through a moment later, and a woman’s voice said carefully, “Mr. Fuller...”
“I assume that you saw the press conference today?” he asked coldy. He placed one hand on the guardrail and looked at the city.
Rina stared down. “I did.” That was how she knew things had gotten very serious and had gone to the hospital as fast as she could.
As she expected, after the Gray couple heard what Sonia said, they started suspecting that Sonia was their real daughter. She even heard what Julia really thought about her. If she didn’t overhear it, she wouldn’t have known that Julia was only pretending to love her. She even said that even though she knew Taylor was their ‘real daughter,’ she just couldn’t bring herself to be close to her. She only pretended to love Taylor so she wouldn’t hurt her.
They don’t know why they can’t feel close,but I do. It’s not that they can’t; it’s that they want to be close with their real daughter, not an impostor. But Mom doesn’t know I’m a fake, so she has to act. I don't understand. Is a bond of blood that important?
After hearing her answer, Toby squinted dangerously. “If you saw it, then you should know that Titus will start to suspect her of being the real Rina. After all, she did release her details. He’s already suspecting something now, and he’s looking into it. I want you to go to him right away to quash his suspicions once and for all. Stop him from looking into Sonia’s past, understand?” “I understand, Mr. Fuller.” She took a deep breath and nodded. “I know what I should do. Don’t worry. I will stop Dad from looking into this any further.” If they find out that Sonia is their real daughter, I’ll be in trouble.
