'I would do it even if you did not tell me to,' Toby messaged back to Titus with one hand before putting his phone away.

Tim had read the messages. "Titus Gray is acting all like a father right now."

"He loves Little Leaf. It would be strange if he didn't tell me to take care of her. Is there something you need?" Toby blandly asked.

"I am here to remind you it is time for your heart checkup," Tim responded, pushing his glasses up.

Toby frowned. It was only then that he recalled he had an appointment today. "Let's go."

Upon hearing that, Tim silently turned and walked out of the room.

"Take good care of her. I'll be back soon," Toby said to Mary.

"Don't worry, Young Master Toby." Mary nodded. "I'll look after Young Mistress Sonia."

Toby grunted in acknowledgment before walking out of the room.

......

Time flew by. Soon, it was evening.

Toby was reading a book while sitting by the bed when he heard Sonia moving.

He hurriedly put down his book and turned around just in time to see Sonia open her eyes.

"You're up," he gently commented.

She smiled at him. "Yes, I am. How long have I been asleep?"

She massaged her temples and sat up with his assistance.

He placed a pillow behind her back so that she could comfortably lean backward before pouring her a glass of water. "Five hours."

"Five hours?" She had been about to take a sip of water when she froze out of shock. "That was a long nap."

She fell asleep around three in the afternoon. If she slept for five hours, did that not mean it was eight in the evening now?
