I didn’t know that Tina would be so shameless as to pretend to faint.

“President Fuller, I believe she will wake up soon,” Sonia uttered coldly while resting her arms on her chest.

 

Now that she was still in Toby’s arms, Tina could not help but exert more pressure on her hand that hung in the air. What does she mean by that? Could she have noticed that I am faking it?

Toby seemed to have understood what Sonia was implying, for he lowered his eyes and gazed at Tina for a while.

After failing to detect any oddity, he looked up at Sonia. “What do you think I should do?”

She smiled. “It’s simple—just release her. If she has really fainted, she’d definitely react when she lands on the ground. Why don’t you try it out on her?”

 

Upon hearing that, Tina’s heart pumped even harder. How could Sonia force me to wake up with that horrible suggestion? She’s cruel and malicious!

Toby frowned at the suggestion and replied, “What kind of idea is that? Have you ever considered that Tina would be injured if I let go of her while she is unconscious?”

 

Tina let out a relieved sigh. Great, looks like he won’t listen to Sonia.

Sonia’s gaze swept across Tina’s forehead, where Tina’s worried wrinkles were smoothened after being ‘saved’ by Toby. A smirking Sonia added, “If you don’t have the heart to test it out, why don’t we use another method?”
