Chapter 568 Nancy’s Gratitude
At that thought, Sonia rolled her eyes at Toby and grunted, whereupon she took big strides toward the mansion’s tall gate.
In the meantime, a confused Toby stood at his original position as he watched her walk away. Is she mad at me again? What’s going on? What have I done? After a brief contemplation, he was sure he hadn’t done anything wrong and caught up with the lady. “Wait up, Sonia.”
Since Sonia feigned that she didn’t hear anything and continued to walk forward, he was forced to increase his pace and followed her through the gate. As soon as the gate closed, he seized her wrist before pinning her on the wall while keeping his gaze on her. “Tell me what’s going on. Why are you mad at me?”
Deep down in her heart, she rolled her eyes at the man, feeling piqued with his question. Did he just ask why I’m mad?! She placed her hands on Toby’s chest and tried to shove him away. “It’s nothing. Just keep a distance from me as I need to get going now.”
Nonetheless, Toby refused to step aside as he continued to stand in front of her like a wall. “Just answer my question, or I’ll never be able to ease my mind.”
“Do you really want to know?” Sonia looked at him after she inhaled deeply.
“Of course, or I wouldn’t have stopped you to ask about this.”
She pursed her lips and answered, “Toby, did you move here because of me?”
The moment he heard her question, he was rendered speechless, but he was also surprised that she had figured out his intentions at the same time. It seems that I must have given myself away with what I have just said.
On the other hand, when Sonia noticed Toby’s silence, she sighed and added, “As I have expected, you… really have no sense of shame at all!”
He immediately understood what she meant. “Are you mad because I moved in when you were already here?”

on her bed and waited for two minutes before she grabbed her robe and stepped into the bathroom for a nice bath. Now that she was soaking in the bathtub full of water, Sonia could feel the effects of the alcohol kicking in as the temperature of her body slowly matched that of the water. Soon, she started to feel dizzy
she was on the verge of losing her consciousness and could drown if she continued to remain in the bathtub, which was what she reckoned to be an embarrassing death. Therefore, she rubbed her temples and held the edges of the bathtub to get out of her bath. After that, she reached for the towel and wiped herself
the ground, but thanks to both the floor mat and the alcohol, she didn’t feel any pain as a result of the fall. She only fixed her eyes on the chandelier on the ceiling; she occasionally blinked her eyes until she finally succumbed to the alcoholic effects and drifted
