Toby didn’t budge, so Sonia couldn’t close the door. Out of anger, she tried to shove him away, but she forgot that one of her legs lacked the strength to stand. Therefore, not only did she fail to shove Toby away, but she lost her balance and fell backward.

Toby’s pupil contracted with fear when he witnessed that. Even though he reached out in an attempt to hold her, he was a second too slow, so he missed her arm. Not only did he fail to hold her, but he ended up falling down alongside her.

 

There was a loud thud when Sonia fell down on the carpet in the foyer with both of Toby’s arms propped beside her shoulders. He was kneeling on one knee as his figure loomed over her body.

Both of them were stunned when they locked eyes. Sonia didn’t foresee such an outcome, so she was blushing while her heart raced. Her look of chagrin caused Toby’s eyes to darken as he recalled the night when she was drunk.

That night, she was as enchanting and alluring as a fairy. The thought made Toby’s body heat up as he gulped, while his gaze was fixed on her lips that were slightly parted when he lowered his head to look downward.

At that moment, Sonia spoke indifferently. “Have you had enough? Can you get up now?”

 

Toby was jolted awake. When he realized what he was about to do, he tensed up, his lips forming a grim line. “I’m sorry.”

After he got up, he reached out to give her a hand, but she didn’t accept his help. Instead, she propped herself up with both hands on the floor. Toby’s gaze darkened as he clenched his midair fists and retracted his arm.
