As long as you don’t ask me to remarry or get back with you?

Toby furrowed his eyebrows. Truth be told, his motivation for saving her was entirely pure and genuine. He didn’t have any ulterior motives, not even after she was rescued.

In other words, it never crossed his mind to take advantage of the situation and ask her to remarry or return to him. However, hearing her words that sounded like a warning, he felt a surge of heartache accompanied by a pinch of anger.

Huh? Is this what it is? Am I such a person to you?

“We’ll discuss that later.” Toby lowered his gaze and said calmly.

Sonia noticed his sudden coldness toward her, and she knew the reason behind it. Still, it wasn’t a matter worth dawdling. After getting the change from the doctor, she looked at Toby and said, “Let’s go.”

“Umm…” Toby stood up, making his way toward the door, while Sonia slung her bag over her shoulder and followed suit.

In the car, no one bothered to say a word. The atmosphere was so static that all that was left was the faint sound of their breathing.

It was not until they arrived at the police station when the pressuring silence between them was broken.

“Just stay in the car; you don’t have to get out.” Sonia undid her seatbelt and spoke to the man in the passenger seat who was doing the same thing. “There are reporters outside, and your bodyguards aren’t even here. If you get out, the reporters will swarm all around you, and they’ll recognize you in an instant.”

Hearing her words, Toby stopped his actions and peered outside.

As expected, there were reporters outside the doors leading to the police station, but there weren’t many of them, just around five or six. After all, it was right outside the police station, so if too many reporters gathered there, they would be dispersed immediately.

Still, Sonia wouldn’t be able to fend off the reporters, even with their small numbers. If the reporters get too excited, they might bump into her, and things would get worse.

Pondering on the chances of that occurring, Toby whipped out his phone and sent a message. A few seconds later, his phone vibrated.

Toby gave the screen a quick glance, after which he turned toward Sonia, who was still sitting in the driver’s seat. “Just wait for a bit. The bodyguard captain who sent the culprit away is in the police station right now. I just sent him a message to come get you, so now that you have him protecting you, the reporters won’t dare to go near you.” And so would I be less worried.

Sonia’s red lips moved, as if she wanted to say something. However, it was just then that two knocks sounded on the car window on Toby’s side.

Toby rolled down the windows, and the captain leaned in. “President Fuller.”

“Take good care of Vice President Reed, and don’t let her get hurt,” Toby said solemnly as he looked at the captain.
