Chapter 765 Never Again

“You have my word.” Toby nodded.

Finally, Sonia smiled ever so slightly, her mood lifted. “Good. But how about you?”

“Hm?” Toby asked in a low voice. “What about me?”

“Your back…” Sonia put on an awkward smile. “I mean, the scratches on your back…”

Toby finally realized what she was asking. Before she could finish, he parted his thin lips and answered in a clearly cheerful tone, “They’re recovering.”

“That’s good to hear.” Sonia sighed lightly in relief, then said, “Then don’t you want to know your current condition? Ever since you woke up, you haven’t asked me anything about your condition.”

“I just realized I didn’t.” Toby nodded, admitting.

Sonia pouted and gave his chest a half-hearted slap. “What’s with you? I put it that way so that you can ask me about your condition on your own. You got into an accident, so why aren’t you more concerned about your own body?”

Well, look at you. He didn’t ask anything, as if he weren’t the one who got into an accident.

Toby pinched her hand, which was still on his chest, and let out a chuckle. “Don’t get mad. I didn’t ask because I guessed that I was all right. If there really is something serious, you wouldn’t recover so quickly from the surprise when you see me awake. This is why I’m very sure I guessed correctly that my condition is not serious. Am I right?”

He pulled her hand out from under the blanket, then guided it to his lips and kissed it.

Sonia humphed. “All right, your guess is correct. It’s true that there’s nothing too serious about your condition. Tom said that you fainted because you got hit on the back of your head. You will be discharged tomorrow.”

“I see.” Toby jutted out his chin slightly to signify that he understood what she said, but his eyes told a different story.
