Toby raised his phone as high as he could. He was sitting on the bed, so he was naturally in a higher position compared to Sonia. With a raise of his hand, the phone went completely out of reach.

Sonia couldn’t even touch his hand, much less grab the phone. In the end, she was out of options, so she could only jump up to snatch the phone.

However, Toby already knew she would do that. When she jumped up, he straightened his back and raised the phone once again.

This time, Sonia touched the phone, but only barely with her fingertips, losing her balance again and falling into Toby’s arms.

Toby looked down at the woman sprawled on his chest. The look in his eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was a little hoarse as he said, “Sonia, are you giving out free hugs?”

Hearing that, Sonia seemed irked as she hastily raised her head. “Of course not!”

Toby didn’t say anything, merely lowered his gaze as a means of a hint.

Sonia followed his gaze and looked down to realize that she was snug in his arms, and her hands were even resting on his chest.

Due to her movements, his patient gown was slightly lifted, so a part of his toned abs was exposed seductively.

The dissipated blush on Sonia’s cheeks came back right away. In lightning speed, she withdrew her hands from Toby’s chest, then bolted upright and moved away from him.

Sonia was going too fast and tripped a little.

Noticing that, Toby quickly said, “Careful.”

Thanks to the reminder, Sonia turned to look behind her and managed to grab hold of the chair she sat on. Then, she finally stabilized herself.

Whew. I almost fell again.

Seeing that Sonia had steadied herself, Toby relaxed, then pursed his lips and complained, “How are you so clumsy?”

Sonia guiltily averted her gaze.

I didn’t want to get this clumsy; you’re the one who made me fall.
