Oh really? Did Toby buy Plan B? Sonia’s heart skipped a beat, her eyes staring at the paper bag like sharp blades as she wondered what was within.
However, Toby was still not aware of Sonia’s disturbed feelings due to her unobvious expression. Soon, he emptied the paper bag by taking every single item out of it, including some gauze, cotton wool, iodophor, and alcohol, which were mostly sterilization agents. Although there was nothing else besides those few things, Sonia skeptically reached for the bag to take a closer look and realized there was nothing else inside.
After confirming the bag was empty, she heaved a sigh of relief.
In the meantime, Toby knitted his eyebrows when he noticed her relieved look. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Sonia smiled and shook her head, feeling a little guilty at the same time. Deep down, she reckoned she had wronged his kind intentions, thinking he had bought morning-after pills. “I’m sorry.” The lady suddenly apologized to the man.
“What’s with the sudden apology?” Toby frowned in confusion.
Sonia smiled without any intention of hiding her feelings. “I thought the medicine you told your men to buy was morning-after pills, so...” She didn’t finish her sentence because it was self-explanatory.
“Do you seriously think I’d let you take that kind of medicine?” Toby pursed his lips.
Sensing the anger in Toby’s tone, Sonia guiltily kept her head down. “Well, you can’t blame me for thinking that way. Of all the times you could ask them to go to the drugstore, you chose now, so how was I supposed to not misunderstand?” “You!” Toby poked her forehead with his finger. “Why can’t you just have a little faith in me? Do you know I wish for you to get pregnant? Because then we’ll be able to register ourselves as legal spouses, so why would I let you take something like that? Furthermore, they are harmful to your health, and I would never do that unless I’m out of my mind.”
Sonia fixed her gaze on the man and gently tugged his sleeves. “I’m sorry. This is my bad. I didn’t know what your stance was about pregnancy, so I kind of got a little sensitive about that. Now that you’ve told me about your stance, I swear I’ll put a stop to my wild imaginations.”
It was then Toby finally relaxed his eyebrows and hugged her in his arms. “I should apologize to you as well. I should have told you how I felt about pregnancy, but I let your wild imaginations get the better of you because I didn’t do that. I'm sorry.”
“It’s okay. We’re both in the wrong, so why don’t we consider this even?” Sonia shook her head and gazed at the man.
Toby looked back at her with a smile, amused by her reaction. “Are you going to be upset if I disagree with you?” “Of course.” Sonia jutted her chin.
Toby then gently bit her chin and replied, “Alright, I want you to be happy, so we’re even.”
“Hey! What’re you doing?” Sonia rubbed her chin, glaring at Toby, who laughed out loud happily and carried her in his arms.
Startled, Sonia wrapped her arms around the man’s neck while Toby carried her and walked toward the bedroom. Upon arrival, he put her down on the bed and set his eyes on the gel she was holding. “Would you like me to help you with it?”
“No, I don’t need your help. I can handle it myself.” Sonia was irritated, her face blushing in embarrassment.
Is he kidding me? How can I let him help me apply this gel... down there? We might have had the most intimate moment together, and he has certainly seen every part of me, but what happens now is another story. I mustn’t let him see or touch that part of me again'. Who knows his urges could get the better of him anytime? I’d be at a disadvantage by then.
Despite knowing that Sonia would reject him, Toby still intentionally asked her that question to pull her leg. “Alright, do it yourself then. I’ll step outside now.” Toby fixed his clothes after putting her down and left the room.
