Chapter 234
Toby’s hand, which was about to flip a page, stopped mid-air, and his eyes flickered. “So, tell me. How
do I usually treat her?” “Gentle, spoiling, and submissive,” Tim uttered slowly as Toby’s brows furrowed
together tighter with each word. Crossing his arms, Tim pointed out, “It seems like you’re not quite
happy with my conclusion.” “No,” Toby answered curtly and returned his attention to the document in
his hand. So what if he was unhappy about it? It was undeniable that Tim was right—that was exactly
how he treated Tina before this. Tim studied his expression.
“Then why are you frowning?” “It’s nothing,” he replied calmly. Tim chuckled. “You know, I noticed that
you changed a lot after this ident, especially your attitude toward Tina. What happened between the
both of you? Why are you so aloof toward her all of a sudden?” Picking up a pen, Toby left his
signature on the document and said, “Nothing happened between us. I just came to the realization that
I had used the wrong attitude toward Tina before this and would like to correct it now.” “But how can
you do that if you refuse to see her?” Tim asked, the light reflecting off his sses. Closing the
document and cing it aside, Toby then picked up another one and opened it.
Right now, he had veryplicated feelings toward Tina, and he could clearly feel that he didn’t feel
the flutter in his heart for her anymore. Vaguely, he began to understand that he might no longer be in
love with her, so that was why he didn’t want to see her. Besides this, there was another important
reason that he found to be very odd; despite himself realizing that he didn’t feel much toward Tina
anymore, his emotions would still be led by her whenever he saw her. Just like before, when he saw
her looking sad, he would have the urge to give her his everything.

Although that urge had faded quite a lot now, it was still within him, and it frustrated him a lot. The best
evidence for this was during the day before when he caught a glimpse of her through the ss panel
on the door. When he saw her red-rimmed eyes, his heart wrenched and he wanted so much to call her
into the room so he could wipe away her tears and console her. However, before he could do that,
Rose arrived and shooed her off. The moment Tina left, the heart-wrenching feeling in his chest
immediately evaporated together with the voice in his head telling him to console her. In a split second,
he returned to hisposed state before he saw her, as though everything he felt earlier was a
mirage.
Regardless, he knew that it did happen. Every time he saw Tina, his thoughts and emotions would be
out of his own control, and he felt as if a pair of invisible hands were pushing him toward Tina so that
he would be good to her and love her. At the thought of this, he tightened his grip on the pen, trying to
hide the violent storm brewing in his eyes. On the other hand, when Tim saw that he was suddenly
quiet, he shrugged and left the room. In the corridor leading to the lobby on the first floor, Tina stepped
out of the elevator and immediately spotted Sonia who was walking toward her. At the same time,
Sonia caught sight of her, and she feigned surprise. “What a coincidence, Miss Gray.”
As Tina didn’t know that she was here to look for her, she clenched her fists and barked, “What are you
doing here in the hospital?” Don’t tell me she’s here to visit Toby! Reading her mind, Sonia smirked,
and her eyes sparkled. “Well, I’m here to visit President Fuller, of course. I heard that he got into a car
ident. As his ex-wife, I should at least send him my regards, no? We were once in love, after all. Did
you just visit him, Miss Gray? Great. Could you please tell me what his room number is?” “Don’t you
even think about it!” Tina hissed, her eyes spitting fire.
Sighing in feigned disappointment, Sonia said, “I see. Never mind, then. I’ll check it with the nurse at
the reception.” She was about to walk past Tina when Tina suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her
back. “Oh no, you don’t! I’m warning you, Sonia Reed. You’re not allowed to visit Toby. He’s my fiancé!”
“So what if he is? You guys are still not married yet, are you?” Sonia had on a smug look. Her
provocation made Tina so furious that she was shaking. “We’ll be married sooner orter!” “Huh.
Nobody can say that for sure. I heard that he has refused to see you for the past couple of days, and it
seems to me that he wants to break up with you. The timing can’t be better because my chance is
here,” Sonia added with a giggle, flipping her hair.
Despite her confidence, Sonia was very disgusted with how she was acting right now. It feels so
sickening to act like a b*tch, she thought. I swear I’ll never do this again! Tina’s face fell. “What did you
say? Your chance is here? Are you nning to remarry Toby?” “Of course. I’m already pregnant, and
he’s the father of my child. It’s only natural that I remarry him since I can’t let my child grow up in a
single-parent household. With your magnanimity, I guess you wouldn’t want to see an innocent child be
in a broken family, right?” Blinking, Sonia kept a steady gaze on Tina as she observed her expression.
Just as she expected, Tina’s face cringed into a scowl. She found out that Toby is the father of her
child!
Tina thought in shock. I just knew she’d find ways and means to remarry Toby when she found out
about it. Hmph! All the things she said before that she doesn’t love him anymore were just bullsh*t in
the end! She couldn’t care less about how Sonia found out the truth, and her eyes were staring at her
belly with a malicious intent. It’s all this bastard’s fault! Without this bastard, she’ll have no reason to
remarry Toby! Crackling into an insaneughter, she suddenly lunged toward Sonia. Sonia saw this
coming from miles away. Narrowing her eyes, she stepped aside and dodged Tina easily, causing her
to push into the air before stumbling to the floor. Sonia sneered at her, took a step forward, and
grabbed her by the hair as she lifted her upper body.
With her other hand, she pped her twice across her face. p! p! The sounds of the ps were
crisp and clear, and palm marks appeared on Tina’s cheeks instantly, making her look very pitiful and
sorry. Amidst all these, none of them noticed that the elevator doors behind them had opened up
suddenly, and a man in a wheelchair was watching as the situation unfolded. His hands that were
resting on the armrests of the wheelchair balled up tightly as he tried to suppress his emotions. “How
dare you p me, Sonia Reed!” Tina shouted, pinned to the ground helplessly under her.
As she was weaker than Sonia, she was unable to push her away and could only clutch onto Sonia’s
arms as tightly as she could, hoping that Sonia would release her from the pain. Despite Tina’s
struggles, Sonia refused to let go, and the stronger Tina clutched her arms, the stronger she would pull
her hair. Tina felt as though Sonia would rip out her scalp, and her face twisted into a look of pain.
“Thought I didn’t have the guts to hit you? Who do you think you are? You wanted to push me and kill
my baby, and I’m only hitting you in self-defense.
Even if we bring this to the police, I’m confident that I’m the one in the right.” Sonia pulled at Tina’s hair
as she spoke. In fact, she deliberately told Tina that the father of her child was Toby and that she would
remarry him, all for the sake of provoking Tina into attacking her. Then, she would have a reason to
retaliate and pull out her hair.
Even though the n was a little risky and she might get hurt during the process, she had to resort to
this to avoid suspicion as to why she was pulling out Tina’s hair. Luckily for her, she was able to escape
unscathed because she was guarded against Tina’s attack. “Ahh!” Tina screamed, tears of pain
brimming in her eyes, and she shot a spiteful look at Sonia. “Let me go!” “Never!” Sonia met her eyes
with ridicule.
