Chapter 57

Inside the surveillance room, the three of them could see that Sonia and Charles entered the hot springs
about an hour and a half ago but since then, the former never came out.

From this, it was obvious that she

should still be in the hot springs.

“I’ll go check the hot springs!” With that, Charles immediately rushed out of the door



Tina lifted her head and looked at Toby

next to her before asking in a soft tone,



“Toby, should we follow?”

“We should!” he answered with

furrowed brows. “Charles suspects

that her disappearance has something

to do with you, so we must follow him to help clear your name. Let’s go.”

She smiled faintly and replied, “Alright.

We’ll do as you say.”



When they got to the entrance of the hot springs, they could hear Charles negotiating with the
security guard.

“Sir, I’ve told you that the hot springs’

operating hours have passed. There

isn’t anyone inside.” The guard blocked

Charles’ path to prevent him from

getting in

As Charles was about to say REDMI NOTE 9S ALOU Semething while scratching his head, a

loud scream could be heard coming from inside the hot springs, drawing everyone’s attention to the
source

Then, everyone saw a cleaning lady running out of the hot springs in fear while mumbling something to
herself.

The guard grabbed her and asked, “What’s the problem?”

“S-Someone’s dead!” the cleaning lady

stuttered.

“What?”

Everyone was shocked by what they



Then, she pointed inside with her trembling hand. “Someone has died inside the shower room of the
women’s section!”

“Sonia!” Instantly, Charles’ expression changed as he rushed into the hot

springs.

Toby and the guards also followed suit.

On the way, Toby looked really tense

and the aura that he was exuding at

that time was enough to suffocate

anyone.

Is that woman really dead? Is this a

joke? Is this all part of her prank?

As he gritted his teeth tightly, he suddenly felt a strange ache inside his heart that messed up his
breathing.

Tina also seemed to notice the sudden change of his emotions. Even though

she was filled with hatred inside, she

still managed to get her eyes teary. “Toby, why does Miss Reed have to suffer so much at such a young
age?”

She spoke as though she felt sorry and sad for Sonia’s death but when



everyone else wasn’t watching, she

curled up the corners of her lips.

This is great news! As long as she is

dead, I won‘t have any more worries.

6/19 When they arrived outside the shower

room, they opened the door and went straight in, ignoring the ‘men are forbidden to enter’ sign above the
door. However, the moment they entered,

they immediately witnessed the

terrifying scene of Sonia lying on the floor with a pool of blood still flowing from her head.

It took a while for Charles to come back to his senses before walking stiffly toward her.

Meanwhile, Toby stood at the door with

his eyes locked onto Sonia’s pale face

as he instinctively clenched his fists

tightly.

Etter 57 It really is Sonia! She really is dead!

At this moment, he felt as though he

had lost something that was important to him. Not only was his heart aching, it felt empty too

Suddenly, Charles’ excited voice was heard. “She is alive. Sonia isn’t dead yet. She is still breathing!”

What? Tina’s smile froze all of a

sudden and her eyes filled with

disbelief. Sonia isn‘t dead?

Toby’s eyes were trembling as he

stared at Charles. “Is it true?”

im sure of it. Sonia is indeed alive.”

He could clearly feel her weak breath

after placing his fingers right under her

nose.

At the same time, the guard let out a sigh of relief before turning toward the cleaning lady with
dissatisfaction. “What were you doing? She obviously isn’t dead, so why did you go running around
saying that she is dead?”



The cleaning lady answered aggrievedly, “I was scared when I saw her lying on the floor in a pool of
blood, so I assumed that she was dead.”

The guard was left speechless.

As for Tina, she also glared at the

cleaning lady angrily. It‘s all because of her that I got all excited for nothing. Also,
why couldn‘t Sonia just die after slipping on the shower gel that I poured?

She was afraid that others might



notice her true intentions, so she quickly composed herself and smiled. “This is great. Miss Reed is still
alive. This is great news, right, Toby?”

However, he didn’t answer her as he

walked toward Charles and Sonia.

At the moment, Charles was shaking

her gently, trying to wake her up.

Seeing his complete lack of basic medical knowledge, Toby was so infuriated that he grabbed the other
man’s collar and pulled him away from

Sonia.

“Fuller, what are you doing?” Charles roared.



Toby lifted his gaze and glanced at him coldly. “It’s obvious that she is in a deep coma, so you can’t just
wake her up by shaking her. Also, her head was injured, so you’ll only make her injuries worse and
cause her to lose more

blood. If you don’t want her to die, your

best choice is to call the doctor

REDMI Nomediately”

Listening to him, Charles was

dumbfounded at first before being

annoyed at himself.

Dimn it! I always lose my cool when I‘m

frustrated. I can‘t believe I didn‘t even think of such an important thing like

calling a doctor.

Quickly, he took out his phone and

called the hotel.

Meanwhile, Toby squatted down and

gently lifted Sonia’s head so that she

could lie in his arms.

Then, he tore off a piece of cloth from



his shirt as a bandage to wrap around

on the back of Sonia’s head

to stop blood from flowing out.

During the process, his eyes were filled

with distress and pity, and even he himself did not notice it.

However, Tina witnessed everything as

she stood off to one side. She saw red but she couldn’t do anything to stop it.

She knew clearly that if she stopped

him at this moment, it would only show

how petty she was that she couldn’t

even tolerate an injured person.

After making a phone call, Charles said

to them, “The hotel said that they have

already arranged a doctor to go to Sonia’s room. We just need to bring her

there right away.”

Therefore, Toby knotted the bandage

and carried her up.

Seeing the situation, Charles immediately put his phone back in his pocket and stretched out both his

hands. “I’ll take care of her.”

“No. It’s clear from your previous

actions that you are not suitable to

take care of her,” Toby muttered coldly, refusing to hand over the woman to

him.

Charles chuckled sarcastically. “If I’m

not suitable, then what makes you

suitable to take care of her? President

15/19 are divorced. I’m now her boyfriend.”



“He’s right, Toby. Mr. Lane is Miss Reed’s boyfriend, so you can just hand her over to him. I believe that
he will take good care of her.” Tina went up and gently urged him to let Sonia go

while she pulled at his sleeve.

Toby’s hands slowly tightened around

Sonia’s armpit and knee but in the end,

he let go and handed her over to Charles, his expression dark.

After letting out a grunt, Charles turned around and left with Sonia in his arms.

Seeing the two of them leaving, Toby

16/19 inside his heart and he clenched his fists. However, when he clenched his

fists, he suddenly noticed a sticky feeling coming from his palms. After opening his hand, he realized that

other than Sonia’s blood, his hands were also stained by an unidentified liquid.

There was a faint scent from the liquid

and when he rubbed his hands, the

liquid started to form bubbles. It must



be some kind of shampoo or shower gel. I‘ve just touched Sonia, so I probably got it from her.

Upon thinking about it, he looked at the

place where Sonia passed out and sure

enough, there really was a pool of the

same liquid

Immediately, he let out a sneer. Looks

like she spilled her toiletries and accidentally slipped on it. What an idiot!

“Toby, Mr. Lane and Miss Reed are

gone. Let’s go back to our room.” Tina

grabbed his arm.

However, he then lifted his arm and

withdrew it from her. “I need to wash

my hands first.”

After that, he went to the front of the

washstand and washed off the blood

and shower gel on his hands before

leaving the hot springs.



When they got back to their room, Tina

grabbed a bathrobe and gave it to him.

“Toby, you just bandaged Miss Reed and your body was stained by her blood, so why don’t you take a
bath

first?”

He had the same idea, so he took the

bathrobe and went into the bathroom but when he smelled a familiar scent in

the air, he narrowed his eyes.
