Chapter 324 Abort the Child Now
Toby’s actions came to a halt the moment he heard the disgust in Sonia’s voice. She held her head in her hands as she tried to calm her unstable emotions. It was Toby! The man that night was Toby! No. How could that be? When I woke up the next morning, I saw another guy who wasn’t Toby! She didn’t believe Toby entirely yet.
After looking left and right, she found her phone by the side of her bed, and she grabbed it as if it was her last hope in this world. She opened her messenger application and searched for the nickname, ‘Z-H’. She immediately gave the account a voice call. Soon enough, Toby’s phone began ringing in his pocket. It was the ringtone for calls that came specifically from the messenger application.
At that moment, Sonia felt as if her entire world had collapsed. Her phone slid out of her hand and fell onto the bed. It’s him. It really is him! Sonia could no longer lie to herself by saying that the man that night wasn’t Toby. She clutched the sheets tightly and stared at him with her bloodshot eyes. “Why did you lie to me? Was it fun for you?” Her voice was filled with anger.
“I didn’t—” Toby stared.
She interrupted him with a loud scream. “Are you going to say that you didn’t mean to do it? Hah!” she scoffed. “I was drunk that night, but you weren’t drunk, were you? You knew that I was the woman in bed that night, but you didn’t tell me anything. Instead, you used some fake account called ‘Z-H’ to contact me. Whenever I thank you for helping me out, you’re probably laughing at me behind my back. You probably think I’m an idiot because I didn’t know that Z-H was you!” she cried.
He knitted his brows. “I indeed contacted you without revealing my identity, but I’ve never lied to you about anything else, and I’ve never laughed at you. Z-H is my name too. My nickname used to be Zonny Hohann—you know about this!” All along, Toby had been contacting her with his real name. She simply hadn’t put the pieces together.
She let out an exasperated laugh. “It’s just two letters. How was I supposed to guess that it stood for Zonny Hohann?” Furthermore, Sonia only knew that his other name was John after she found out that he was the person she had been writing to.
So, even if she had made a link between Z-H and John, she wouldn’t have known that John was Toby. Toby was silent after letting out a light cough. She’s right. It’s pretty hard to make such a guess. Z-H just sounds like two random letters.
Meanwhile, Tim, who had been observing Toby’s sheepish expression and Sonia’s angry one, pushed his glasses up a little. Oops. It seems like I caused quite some trouble after revealing that Toby is the child’s father.
Sonia pressed her palms together as she curled her lips into a self-deprecating smirk. “That explains why Tina was trying so hard to kill the baby in my belly. She knew that it was your child all along.”
“Does she know about it?” Toby’s expression darkened. How could that be? Why would Tina know about this? I didn’t tell her anything about my night with Sonia, so how could Tina know about this?
“Sonia’s right. Tina knows about this—I can attest to this since she was the one who told me. I’ve also known about this for a while.” Tim took one of his scalpels out of his pocket and began to toy with it as he spoke.
“Zane…” The anger on Sonia’s face seemed to get more and more intense each second. “When you contacted me with Z-H’s account, you mentioned that you were friends with Zane. I asked Zane if he knew you, and Zane told me that he wasn’t very close to you. I didn’t think much about it then, but now, it seems like I’m the biggest idiot in the world. All of you guys had me fooled, and everyone except me knows that the child in my belly belongs to you! What a joke!” Tears trickled down Sonia’s cheeks. Despite her icy scoff, she was deeply hurt by the matter.
After the incident that night, she had told Zane to check all of the CCTV cameras in the clubhouse. However, Zane had told her that he didn’t find anything. When she revisited their conversation, she realized that Zane had planned his story out to help Toby conceal the fact that Toby was the one who was with Sonia that night. What an ironic joke! I thought Zane was my friend. I can’t believe he did this to me!
