This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1469 Toby Is Back

The other doctors looked at Tim with greater pleasure. After all, the method he proposed had never crossed their

minds before, and now, they indeed benefited a lot from him coming here. They just regretted that Tim wasn't a

doctor at their hospital, or they would have learned even more from him. Ah, it must be great to work as a doctor

at First World Hospital!

Julia was happy, too. No one would want to stay bedridden and be taken care of by others, and she was no

exception. And besides, she worried about Sonia and wished to stay around her in order to look after her at all

times, but given her health condition, she had no choice but to accept the fact that she would have to stay in bed

for two to three months. Now, in a dramatic turn of events, Tim actually said that she could recover in about a

month. This was undoubtedly a good thing because she would be able to return to her daughter's side in about a

month! "In that case, Dr. Lancaster, could you—" She looked at Tim, wanting to ask him whether he could operate

on her.

However, Tim cut her short before she could finish her sentence. "Other doctors can perform the surgery as long

as they know how to do it." In other words, he was simply unwilling to operate on her by himself. It was difficult

enough for him to be willing to examine her.

Julia also knew about this, so she didn't insist either. In any case, she was satisfied enough that others could

perform the surgery. "Well, then, thank you for examining me, Dr. Lancaster," she thanked gratefully.

"Uh-huh," Tim replied before leaving the ward.

The other doctors went out after him to ask him how to perform the surgery, leaving only Titus, Julia, Sonia, and

Mary in the ward again.

Looking at Sonia, Titus suddenly asked, "Sonny, could Tim be in love with you?"

Sonia was drinking water when she heard this and instantly choked.

Mary quickly patted her on the back. "Young Mistress Sonia, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Sonia shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

Seeing that she had gotten better, Titus and Julia heaved a sigh of relief. "I'm sorry, Sonny. I didn't mean it," Titus

said apologetically.

Sonia shook her head. "It's okay. I was just taken aback by what you said."

Titus felt very pleased that she accepted his apology and was willing to converse with him.

Mary laughed, too. "That's right, President Gray. How could you say that Dr. Lancaster is in love with Young Mistress

Sonia? Even I found that ridiculous just now, let alone Young Mistress Sonia." She was also taken aback by Titus'

question just now.

Titus explained, "I observed him for a while just now. He cares a lot about Sonny; in fact, had it not been for her, he

wouldn't have come to check on us. That's why I asked if he had feelings for her." After all, Tim was really a little too

nice to Sonia.

Sonia shook her head, though. "No, it's not that he has feelings for me. He just yearns for the warmth I give him."

"What do you mean?" Titus asked, indicating that he couldn't understand what she meant.

Sonia explained, "I saved his life back when I was a child, so he's been regarding me as his savior since then. Well,

he got the wrong person afterward, but ever since confirming that I was the one who had saved his life, he's been

very nice to me. He takes good care of me, but it's not because he likes me. Rather, it's because he's never been

shown care and concern by others. Everyone loathed and disliked him; he didn't feel anything about it, but I knew

he actually took it very much to heart. That's why he regards me as his guiding light and has been looking after me

ever since I saved him." This was because Sonia was the only person who had made him feel all warm. It wasn't

that Tim had no feelings whatsoever; it was just that he was slow in expressing his feelings.

"I see." Titus nodded after understanding what she meant. "I thought he was in love with you, so I was going to tell

you to pay more attention to this." Now that he thought about this, however, if Tim were really in love with Sonia,

there was no way Toby wouldn't know about it. In reality, Toby also knew that Tim's feelings for Sonia weren't out of

love but out of emotional dependence, which was why he let Tim do as he pleased.

Just then, one of the bodyguards suddenly showed up at the door. "It's getting late already, Young Mistress Sonia."

He reminded Sonia. "You have to undergo surgery this afternoon."

Titus and Julia tensed up at once. They hurriedly asked, "Surgery? What surgery?"

Mary replied with a smile, "Don't worry, it's not some major surgery. It's just an eye operation. Young Mistress Sonia

has made an appointment yesterday to undergo surgery for a corneal transplant today."

"I see." Titus and Julia were relieved. "Well, in that case, you two should go back now." Titus stood up, wanting to

see Sonia and Mary off. In reality, he was also reluctant to part with Sonia, but her eyes were more important.

"Goodbye." Mary helped Sonia out of the ward. After nodding to Titus, she led Sonia to the elevator.

Titus kept standing outside the ward while watching them leave. After they entered the elevator, he finally let out a

soft sigh and turned back into the ward. He was already at death's door, and now, he was seeing Sonia less and less

with each meeting. Now that he had met her this time, no one knew when they would meet again next time.

…

Sonia's surgery went well. After the surgery, her eyes were covered in gauze, which wouldn't be removed for a long

time. With the gauze covering her eyes, she couldn't see anything, which made her practically blind.

However, it wasn't like Sonia had never experienced before what it was like to be blind. She had once suffered from

blindness due to an injury, during which time Toby had concealed his identity and sent Olivia to take care of her.

Otherwise, she would have been at a total loss for what to do at the time.

Learning that she had undergone surgery, Toby worked extra hours and rushed to finish everything at hand in one

day. Then, he hurried back to the country on his private plane.

Unfortunately, Sonia had just fallen asleep when he returned to her ward. It pained him at once when he saw her

lying on her sickbed with a pale face and her eyes covered in gauze.

"Young Master Toby." Mary handed him a glass of water as she noticed that his lips were dry. He's rushed all the way

back here in a state of anxiety, not to mention that he's worried about Young Mistress Sonia. Perhaps that's why

he's feeling dehydrated.

Toby happened to be thirsty, so he took the glass of water and thanked Mary. Then, he threw his head back and

finished his drink with a gulp; only then did he feel much better. "How long has she been asleep?" he asked while

handing the glass back to Mary.

Mary placed the glass aside. "She's been asleep for a while. She was still under the influence of anesthesia after the

surgery yesterday, and the drug has yet to be out of her system right now. That's why she's sleeping soundly."

Toby nodded in understanding. Then, he took Sonia's hand and pressed it against his cheek.

Seeing how weary he looked and the dark circles under his eyes, Mary felt rather sorry for him. "Young Master Toby,

you haven't slept much over the past few days, have you?"

Toby didn't deny it. How could he fall asleep when he was not only busy with work but also worried about Sonia?

Consequently, he had only slept for two to three hours each day over the past several days.

Mary let out a sigh. "That won't do. You're not fully recovered yet, so it's easy for something to happen to you if you

wear yourself out like this. Who's gonna protect and take care of Young Mistress Sonia if you collapse? So, Young

Master Toby, why don't you lie down and sleep for a while? Young Mistress Sonia is still asleep at this moment, so

you may sleep with her so that you'll have the energy to speak to her when you two wake up together, no?"

Her suggestion was good, so Toby nodded in agreement instead of rejecting it.

"Well, then, Young Master Toby, please get some sleep. I shan't bother both of you now," Mary said before going

out. She was ready to go back to the Fuller Residence to fetch some stuff that Rose had called yesterday and asked

her to get.

After Mary had left, Toby took off his shoes and suit jacket. Then, he lifted the covers, quietly lay down on Sonia's

sickbed, and wrapped his arms around her. After holding her close, he didn't forget to touch her belly.
