Chapter 547 Tim’s Trail
In reality, Toby might indeed have an interior motive in his fall. Despite almost falling just now, the thought of hugging Sonia suddenly flashed past his mind when he saw her reaching out to grab him.
Therefore, he took the opportunity to hug her when she grabbed him, allowing him to be physically closer to her.
If I can get closer and closer to her day by day, maybe she’ll get used to it and accept me being physically close to her.
After Sonia pulled back from Toby’s hug and straightened her clothes, she turned toward Toby and asked in a worried tone, “President Fuller, are you alright?”
Toby shook his head lightly. “I’m fine. Aren’t you here with me? I believe you won’t let anything happen to me, just like how I would do the same.”
Hearing Toby, Sonia nodded her head without hesitation. “Of course I won’t let anything bad happen to you. I’ll do my best to protect you.”
After everything Toby had done for Sonia to save her from troubles, it was only courteous for her to repay him. At this moment, the corner of Toby’s lips lifted a little. “I’m happy to hear that.”
“President Fuller, the wheelchair is here.” Right then, Tom walked over with the wheelchair.
Immediately, Toby’s facial expression darkened.
Can’t he see that we are in the midst of a conversation? How dare he interrupt us like that! I’m definitely deducting his bonus later!
While contemplating to himself, Toby gave Tom a disdainful glance, baffling his poor assistant out of nowhere.
What is happening? Have I done something wrong? Why is President Fuller staring at me like that?
While observing those two’s interactions, Sonia couldn’t help but feel like laughing because she knew why Toby was glaring at Tom.
He was obviously annoyed that Tom had interrupted their conversation.
Chuckling, Sonia walked toward them. “Allow me, Tom.”
“Sure. I’ll leave it to you, Miss Reed.” Since Sonia volunteered to get closer to Toby, it was only natural for Tom to agree along with her.
Besides, Toby might even get angry at him if he didn’t allow Sonia to help with the wheelchair. Upon seeing that Tom scooted away, Toby had his originally upset expression replaced with a more pleasant one.
This assistant of mine might have learned his lesson, but I’m definitely not going to return the bonus that I’ve deducted just now. After all, we can’t get that magical moment back because of his interruption.
“Let’s go.” With Tom’s help, Toby managed to get on the wheelchair smoothly while Sonia grabbed the handle of the wheelchair and wheeled him forward.
With nothing to do, Tom trailed behind Sonia and Toby and acted as if he was their bodyguard.
Tim was in the hospital’s lobby when the three of them entered the hospital. He was discussing something with a doctor in a lab coat, but he instantly wrapped up the conversion as soon as he spotted the trio’s arrival from the corner of his eyes. While adjusting his glasses like usual, he headed toward Sonia and the others.
“Why are you here with him?” Tim’s gaze landed on Sonia’s face. “Are you guys together now?”
Toby raised his eyebrows when he noticed Tim pointing at him. In the meantime, Sonia’s face went red as her gaze wavered. “Quit joking. Of course not.”
“If that’s not the case, why have you been going out with him so much recently?” Tim crossed his arms and stared at Toby while Toby met his gaze with his own cold ones. “Do you have anything against that?”
“Not really. I’m fine with whatever she does, but I’m just curious about your relationship status.” Tim shrugged.
Pursing her lips, Sonia forced a smile on her face. “Well… I’ve been hanging out with him a lot because the injuries that he had sustained because of me have yet to recover, so I’ll have to be responsible for him.”
“Is that so?” A glint of light reflected from Tim’s spectacle.
Why do I feel like that’s not the case?
