Chapter 245 She's the Antidote Boss, Your Wife's Asking for A Divorce, Again!
The pain subsided the moment he said that. Toby stared at the desk, hiding the murderous look thatwas swelling within his eyes. / knew it. That's not the last time. That means I'll have to cheer her up orget anything she wants whenever she wants. If I don't, I'll get punished. Sh*t. That means I'm just apuppet! “Thank you, Toby. You're the best.” Tina didn’t notice his fury, so she smiled sheepishly. He'sback to how he was before the car crash. I guess we're all patched up now. Toby kept quiet, but hewas actually holding back his urge to destroy Tina.
At this moment, the manager came back again, but now with a doctor. “Dear customers, please letthe doctor have a look,” he quickly told the four of them. At the same time, he complained, Whatthe heck is this? That guy with the crutch almost died earlier, and now the chandelier right on top ofthat guy fell. Did that guy break a mirror and see a black cat at the same time? “Doctor, I need you tolook at Sonia first.” Carl quickly dragged the doctor toward Sonia. However, Tina rolled her eyes andpiped up, “Miss Reed, can you hold on for a minute?” Carl's face fell, and he looked at Tina darkly.
"What? You want to go first?”
A frown creased Toby's forehead, and he felt disgusted as well. Ever since he knew he had to protectand spoil Tina despite the fact he didn't love her, he started disliking Tina. But he couldn't show it,or he'd get punished. “Yes. She only injured her arm, but I got one on my face, so—" For the firsttime in his life, Carl couldn't hold his anger in, and he cursed at her directly. “Shut the f*ck up! Sowhat? That's not even half as serious as Sonia's wound!” He pointed at Sonia's bleeding arm, and hefelt like throttling Tina. Tina bit her lip. “I know, but it'll leave a scar on my face if I drag it on for toolong. Even if she gets a scar on her arm, she can keep it hidden under her sleeve. Miss Reed's a kindperson, so she won't want to see me having a scar on my face.”
“No. I'm an evil person. I want to leave a scar on your face. Better yet, the wound festers and rotsyour flesh,” Sonia retorted coldly. Tina stared at her in disbelief. “Miss Reed, what are you—" Tobycouldn't take it anymore, so he snapped, “Enough. Let Sonia go first.” “Toby...” “Let her go first.” Hegazed at Tina and repeated himself. Only God knew how much pain he was in at that moment. Hisheart felt like it would explode any moment, and the voice kept telling him to force the doctor totreat Tina first. It told him to leave Sonia alone, since she deserved all the pain and sadness in theworld. Why? Just because you told me to? Fine, kill me if you dare, voice. Release me from my misery.At that point, he knew a mysterious power was controlling him, forcing him to love and spoil Tina.Perhaps, he had never loved her to begin with. What he thought was love was just an illusion thepower created for him. He didn't think he would fall for Tina either. The one he loved was thatbubbly pen pal of his—Maple. But Tina's personality was totally different from his pen pal. He didn'tthink she'd change so much just because she was in a coma for six years. It was a gigantic flaw, buthe never noticed that. That's not normal. It's that power. It's controlling me, keeping me from realizingthat Tina isn't Maple. He didn't know why the power was protecting Tina, but it didn't matter. If itwants to control me, then I'll fight it. Toby flinched. The next moment, he suddenly lost his balanceand knelt on one knee, his face contorted with pain.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this. What happened? Again? Sonia pursed her lipscuriously. He seems to be in pain. Does he have an illness I don't know about? “Toby.” Tina wanted tohelp him up. However, Toby swatted her hand away. Because of that, he let the table go and felldown to where Sonia was. When she saw him falling toward her, she subconsciously extended hergood arm and helped him out. But much to Toby's surprise, the intense pain subsided a little whenhe came in contact with her. He looked at Sonia, shocked. Toby was sure the pain lessened whenSonia came in contact with him. So she might be the key to my freedom. She might be my antidote,the one who can free me from my curse!
Toby was filled with delight at the thought of that. Thus, he held her hand tightly, as if he wanted tomerge their hands together. When he did that, the pain subsided even more. It was as if it wasn'tthere at all. Sonia realized what he was doing. When she noticed the passion in his gaze, she feltodd, wondering what happened to him. “Let go!” But Toby kept holding on, ignoring what she said.Carl's expression darkened, and Tina's face contorted, while the manager and doctor wereflummoxed. Is this a love square? Wow, complex. The air was tense and quiet, as if something waswaiting to get unleashed. After the doctor put his scissors down, he broke the silence. “Alright, I'mdone with her wound.
Remember to stay away from water for twenty-four hours. Change the meds in regular intervals,and it won't leave any scars.” “Got it, doctor.” Sonia smiled at him, saying that she had made a noteof it. Then, she looked at Toby, annoyed. “Let go. How much longer do you want to hold on to me?”“Let her go.” Carl went up and separated the both of them. Toby thought his heart would throbagain once he let her go, but to his surprise, nothing happened. Seems like once I touch her, the painwon't act up even if I break contact. “Toby...” Tina called out to him weakly.
Toby leaned against the table and got up. “Take a look at her, doctor,” he said coolly. “Of course.”The doctor nodded. Tina added, “Toby, this might be painful for me. Can you hug me?” Toby scoffedsilently. Sonia didn't even say anything, and her wound is bigger than yours. Weakness disgusts
me. "Sure."
He looked downward and obliged, for he knew he would get punished again if he didn't. Yes, hecould relieve it, since Sonia was there, but if he did that, Sonia would get irritated at him. She didn'tknow he needed her to relieve the pain, so she might think he was trying to take advantage ofher. Not a good strategy. I'll come up with a way to get in touch with her and fight this power.
