This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 258

At the thought of that, Tom fixed his gaze on Toby with a regrettable look while feeling sympathetic toward him at the same time.

In the meantime, Zane raised his eyebrows as his eyes fell upon the unconscious Toby, whom Tom was carrying. “Oh my goodness. What’s wrong with Toby?”

“He has a fever,” Tom replied with a bitter smile.

Sonia soon pursed her lips and said, “Hurry up and take him to the hospital then.” She finished her sentence and looked at Zane. “Come in.”

“Sure!” Zane smiled and entered the house, whereupon Sonia directly closed the door without even looking at Tom and Toby.

On the other hand, Tom was left outside as he stared at the door and shook his head helplessly before he walked away with Toby. Although he was worried for his boss because Sonia was now alone with Zane, he was more concerned about his health, which made taking him to the hospital his priority. After all, he reckoned Toby could always live to fight with Zane another day when he recovered.

On the other hand, Sonia was trimming the flowers that Zane gave her in her apartment, whereupon she arranged them nicely in a vase. At the same time, Zane sat on the couch with both of his hands behind his head as he probingly asked, “Why did Toby swing by just now?”

Nevertheless, Sonia failed to sense his intention, pursing her lips and answering, “That guy was probably out of his mind or something. He just suddenly showed up at my door and told me he loves me. Funny, right?”

“What? He told you he loves you?!” Zane didn’t find it funny like he usually would but was shocked by what he learned.

Since Sonia was absorbed in trimming those flowers, she didn’t notice his expression. Instead, she nodded and said, “Yeah, but it seemed to me that he was probably trying to pull a prank on me, so I didn’t take it seriously anyway.”

“Haha. I see!” Zane curled his lips upward and chuckled in an unconcerned manner despite his stern eyes. Deep down, he didn’t think Toby was pulling a prank on Sonia because he reckoned that was simply beneath his friend. In fact, he was starting to get worried because he knew that Toby had probably discovered the person he was truly in love with, which meant he was serious about his confession to Sonia.

“By the way, why did you swing by so suddenly?” Sonia placed the vase that was filled with flowers aside and sat in front of Zane, interrupting his thoughts with her question.

Zane avoided eye contact with the lady while putting his mind at ease. Then, he tried to act natural by grabbing an apple from the plate before he took a bite. “I came to talk to you about Rina’s imposter. Actually, I’m planning to have her show up at the Gray Residence tomorrow when the time is right.”

“Have you made up your mind about that?” Sonia appeared to look rather serious.

Zane nodded. “Yeah, Rina’s imposter has already said yes, in fact.”

“Alright, what do I have to do then?” Sonia asked.

Zane rubbed his belly with a pitiful look. “Can you cook? I came here with an empty stomach, and you mustn’t let your guest go hungry, right?”

Amused by Zane’s words, Sonia replied, “Okay then, it seems that my help is not needed for the plan. So, sit here. I’ll make something for you now.” She stood up and walked toward the kitchen.

Meanwhile, the doctor and the nurse were injecting Toby with some febrifuge to reduce his fever. “How is my boss?” Zane stood aside and asked in a concerned manner.

“He is fine. It’s just that the rain might have probably caused inflammation on his wound. We’ve changed his bandage, so all we have to do now is wait until his fever subsides.”

“That’s some good news.” Tom patted his chest in relief.

Soon, the nurse threw the syringe away and put Toby on a drip before excusing herself. After that, Tom reached for his phone as he intended to inform Rose and everyone else at the Fuller Residence about Toby’s condition, but before he could make the call, his boss came to his senses.

“President Fuller.” Tom put down his phone and helped Toby sit up straight.
