Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 121

“It’s nothing.” Sonia closed her eyes and answered coolly.

Upon seeing her reluctance to speak, Toby bit his lip in displeasure and reached in through the window.

“What are you doing?” She stared at him in surprise.

He didn’t reply; instead, he simply moved his hand to unlock the door before his other hand opened the door from outside.

“You-”

“Get out,” Toby ordered in a low voice.

Sonia didn’t budge in her seat. “Do you think I’ll get out just because you asked me to? Why should I listen to you? What on earth are you trying to do?” “Get into the backseat. I’ll take you to the hospital,” was Toby’s reply.

She blinked before she looked away. “No need. I can do that myself. Don’t even bother.”

“Do you seriously think you can drive in this condition?” he asked coldly, looking at her pale face and sweaty forehead. Does this woman even remotely care about her own body?

Sonia gripped her stomach and forced a smile. “Why should it matter to you whether I can drive or not? We’re not even related to each other.”

Toby was stunned and he couldn’t find any words to retort her statement—for it was true that he wasn’t related to her in any way. If anything, he was her ex-husband. And an ex-

husband might as well be a stranger.

At that thought, he looked down and felt a little resigned. “Even if we’re not related to each other, seeing your condition now, even a stranger wouldn’t just stand by and watch.”

“You must be joking, President Fuller. If it were a total stranger, I wouldn’t even mind if they gave me a ride. Since it’s you who offered, I can only decline, though. Just focus on little Miss Gray, all right?” Sonia pouted and pushed him away before she closed the car door.

Toby’s dark expression betrayed his displeasure. She would rather have a total stranger take her to the hospital. Does she hate me this much?

“Oh, right.” As she was getting ready to drive away, she suddenly remembered something. Her expression was sour as she continued, “President Fuller, my bag was snatched by

someone on a motorcycle earlier.” “Snatched?” He frowned. So, she was chasing after the motorcycle?

“Yeah.” Sonia nodded and examined him. “My phone was in there and it contained the recording which proves that Tina had pushed me. However, right when I was about to enter the police station, my bag was snatched. Think about it. The recording was snatched before I could even submit it. Isn’t it obvious that the person wasn’t after the money but rather, the recording? President Fuller, are you involved in this?”

Toby understood what she meant and he bit his lip. “Are you suspecting that I asked someone to snatch your bag?”

Sonia withheld her answer. “You didn’t want me to file a report because you didn’t want any harm to befall Tina, so that makes you a suspect. Also, only the three of us know about the recording. If it wasn’t you, then it’s probably Tina. There couldn’t have been another person.”

“It wasn’t me,” he replied with clenched fists. There wasn’t even a need for him to resort to such underhanded methods to protect Tina.

Sonia raised her chin in realization. “Then, it could only be Miss Gray.”

Toby’s thin lips moved ever so slightly as he wanted to say that it might not be Tina either, but those words stayed on the tip of his tongue, for he couldn’t say them. Sonia had said that only three people in this world knew about the audio recording. If it wasn’t him, then it could only be Tina. However, he couldn’t be sure which Tina it was.

“What are you thinking about, President Fuller?”

Sonia asked as she narrowed her eyes at Toby.

He dropped his gaze. “Nothing.”

Sonia chuckled. “President Fuller, I’m curious.
