Shakily, Tina asked, “What do you want from me?” Patting her face gently, Sonia said in a viciously playful tone, “Nothing, really. I just want you to watch as I remarry Toby and live happily ever after as a family with him together with our child.” Inside the elevator, the man’s balled-up fists relaxed a little, and an inexplicable feeling of joy washed over him. Outside, Tina snorted coldly. “You think that’s going to happen? Toby doesn’t even love you! He won’t remarry you!” Since Toby still isn’t aware that it’s Sonia that he’s in love with, it won’t be easy for her to achieve what she wants as long as I keep him unaware of it, Tina thought. Moreover, she’s not fit to be his wife again!

 

“Oh, just because you said so? Six years ago, he still married me even though he doesn’t love me, didn’t he?” Smirking, Sonia prodded Tina in the chest. Gritting her teeth, Tina growled, “You—” “Alright, I’m done with you now. I’m getting tired.” Sonia suddenly let go of her hair. Finally, Tina’s scalp was released, and she shoved Sonia aside before sitting upright as she held the top of her head that was throbbing. With an icy stare, she glowered at Sonia and hissed, “Just you wait!” Then, she sprang up and scattered away without checking around her, worried that Sonia might pin her down again because of what she said and give her another beating if she stayed any longer. In a fight, she was not a match for Sonia!

Watching Tina’s back as she scrambled away in fear, Sonia grinned and looked at the clump of dark hair she was holding in her hand. Those were the hairs she had pulled out of Tina’s scalp mercilessly, and there were at least a hundred of them. This should be enough for Zane, I guess. She smiled and took out a nylon bag from her handbag, placing the hairs into the bag and sealing it before tossing it back into her handbag. Then, she stood up and brushed her hands together. Just as she was about to leave the hospital, something in the corner of her eye caught her attention, and she froze. “It’s you?” Wiping the smile off her face, she turned to face Toby, who was sitting expressionless in the elevator.

of her, and she realized that it was the first time she had seen him so weak. Previously, he got injured several times because of her as well, but never to the extent of donning a hospital gown, nor did he get hospitalized for such a long time, unlike now. “How long have you been here? The things that happened earlier, you saw it?” she asked, staring at the floor. “I

be his real intentions, so he restrained himself and stayed at bay. Sure enough, the minute Tina left, he was calm again, and all those thoughts he had earlier about standing up for her were gone. Once again, it was proven that his rationale and emotions would be affected by Tina. Still, he couldn’t figure out the reason

snapped, “Yes.” Steadily, she watched him for a few seconds before putting on a stiff smile. “If that’s the case, I thank you for letting me off, President Fuller. I’m taking my leave now.” She adjusted the shoulder strap of her handbag and turned around, ready to leave. But Toby stopped her. “Hang on a second.” “Is there anything else, President Fuller?” she asked, twisting her head to face

Sonia said with a curious glint in her eyes, “Oh, that’s what you mean. Why are you bringing this up suddenly, President Fuller? Perhaps you have some opinions about it?” Toby’s eyes glistened. “I’m agreeable to it if that’s what you want.” All the

you’ll remarry me?” “Yes, for the baby—” “Hold up,” Sonia interrupted, holding her palm up in a stop sign before feeling his forehead. From his forehead, he could feel the softness and warmth of her palm, and it traveled through his body until it reached his heart, giving him a jolt. But very quickly, she removed her hand and left him with a sense of disappointment. “You’re not having a fever,” she concluded with arms across her chest. “So, why are you speaking nonsense?”

she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. His eyes wavered. What? Why did she say that she wants to live with me together with the child if she doesn’t know that it’s my child? I thought she already found out! “Also,” she added, not knowing what was on his mind, but she couldn’t be bothered to find out, either. Indifferently, she
