It was only then that Tim shifted his gaze.

At this moment, Sonia pursed her pale lips and looked at him, obviously dissatisfied. “Dr. Lancaster, you can’t do that.”

Light refracted off his glasses as he spoke. “Don’t worry. I just wanted to scare him. I’m not really going to do that.”

“Really?” With her eyes squinted, she didn’t hide her suspicion.

This so-called doctor was a devil in disguise. Back when he thought Tina was her, he had even killed someone for her.

Thus, it made sense that she’d think he was both capable and daring to do something to Toby.

“That’s for sure. I’d let anyone down but you.” Giving a pat on her shoulder, he added, “Alright. You can go take a look at him if you want. I’ll head out first.”

After saying that, he retracted his hand and tucked it back into his pocket before leaving the ward.

Looking at Toby, she said, “Charles, Mr. Brown, you can leave first too. I’d like to stay with him alone for a while.”

Though Tom was frowning, he didn’t refuse, and he left.

However, Charles didn’t budge. “Baby, he’s not awake yet. Why do you want to be alone with him? He isn’t able to see or hear you.”

“I know, but I know what I’m doing. Just go along, Charles.” She turned to look at him and insisted.

Left with no choice, Charles could only obey and leave.

Outside the ward, he was about to find Tom to have a chat about something, but his phone rang.

After taking out his phone, he saw that it was a call from Carl.

As Tom was standing right next to Charles, he could easily see what was displayed on his phone––a call from Carl. At once, he scoffed. “The culprit has finally decided to come forward. And here I thought that he’d be hiding out of fear after learning what he did to President Fuller and Miss Reed.”

Three days ago, it was the day that Toby and Sonia fell off the cliff.

After that happened, he was busy looking for a rescue team to search the foot of the mountain.
