Sonia quickly shook her head. “This won’t happen again. I promise!”

“That’s more like it.” It was only then that Charles snorted and let go of her.

Right after, Sonia lifted her hands to rub her temples and asked, “How long have I been in a coma, Charles?”

“Two days,” Charles answered.

Sonia opened her mouth in shock. “Two days? I was in a coma for two days?”

“Yeah.” Charles nodded. “Tim said you were overfatigued. That’s why you slept for so long.”

“I see.” Sonia lifted her chin with a confused expression and asked, “How did I return to Seafield then?”

All she could recall was that she fainted in a hut’s yard, and she was not aware of the subsequent happenings.

“Both you and Toby were brought back by Tom, Toby’s personal assistant. Tom called me that day to inform me about the incident, so I rushed to the hospital and saw you and Toby being sent to the emergency room as soon as I reached. Thereafter, I asked Tom what exactly had happened. He told me that you were abducted and fell off the cliff while Toby jumped down the cliff together with you in order to save you. My heart almost stopped beating when I heard this,” Charles patted his chest and replied honestly.

Hearing Toby’s name, Sonia widened her eyes and asked anxiously, “What about Toby? Where is he now?”

Charles’ heart turned sour the moment he saw Sonia being so concerned about Toby.

But he soon thought that Sonia was able to survive thanks to Toby, so he could only suppress his discomfort and replied frankly, “Calm down, darling. Toby’s in this hospital too—his ward is right next to yours.”

“How’s his situation now?” Sonia grabbed Charles’ arm and asked again.

Charles’ expression became solemn. “Not too pleasant. His injuries are too serious—not only are his arms broken, but the wound on his back has torn apart too, and his organs are injured to a certain extent. He also suffered a concussion besides the fever. To make a long story short, his situation is very serious.”

In fact, even Charles was shocked when he became aware of Toby’s situation.

All he could say was that Toby was indeed fortunate to survive even after suffering all these serious injuries.
