Chapter 1373

Sometimes, words could only do so much. Instead of bombarding a situation with advice, it might be better to take

a step back and allow the situation to resolve itself. Otherwise, the results might be catastrophic. After all, human

beings were hot-headed. It would be terrible if things translated into irrationality and impulsive mistakes.

Rather than that happening, one should know when to stop at the right time and allow solitude to do its wonder to

the human brain—self-reflection.

While thinking of that, Sonia came out of the conservatory and stopped. Then, she looked back at Charles, who was

still squatting there, and let out a slight sigh before leaving.

When she returned to the villa, Grace happened to come down the stairs and saw her. She asked, "Sonny, why are

you alone? Where's Charles?"

"He's still at the conservatory. We talked about something, but he seems to be stuck in his ways, so I left him there

to think about it alone," Sonia replied with a smile.

Grace nodded. "I see. What were you guys talking about?"

"Mrs. Lane, my apologies, but I can't tell you yet because it depends on his situation. If he can think things through,

perhaps he might tell you everything, but if he can't, I'll come clean to you before he makes any mistakes. Please

bear with me, Mrs. Lane." Sonia bowed guiltily.

While waving her hand, Grace said, "If that's how it is, I won't ask anymore, and you don't have to be so formal with

me. Wait—you said Charles might make mistakes. Does it involve any illegal acts?" She was nervous.

Sonia shook her head and assured her. "I don't think so. He's not the kind of person who acts irrationally."

Moreover, Charles' actions were not considered illegal confinement. After all, if Daphne could leave, it also meant

she could call the police, which she did not. Therefore, she was willingly staying inside that villa.

Since both consented to the matter, it could not be considered a crime. Thus, what she meant by Charles' mistakes

was on an emotional level and not legally speaking.

After listening to her explanation, Grace felt relieved and patted her chest. "That's good. As long as that brat

doesn't commit a crime, he can do whatever he wants." She waved her hand, not minding the matter.

Seeing that Grace did not ask prod further, Sonia also felt relieved. She then grabbed her bag and bid goodbye to

Grace. "Mrs. Lane, it's getting late. I need to head home now."

"You're leaving already?" Grace seemed a little reluctant. "It's still early. How about staying a while longer and

heading home after dinner?"

"No thanks, Mrs. Lane." Sonia shook her head to refuse Grace's offer and insisted on leaving. "Toby is still at the

hospital waiting for me. You know him. He doesn't like strangers around him, so we didn't hire a caretaker. I've been

taking care of him all this while and feel a little worried about him after leaving him alone the entire morning, so I

need to head back and check on him."

"I see." At the mention of Toby, Grace could not do anything but let her leave.

"Well, I won't keep you here. Bring Toby over after he recovers. My husband enjoys talking with him." Grace smiled

and suggested.

Sonia hummed in response. "I will."

"Sounds like a plan. Hold on! I'll get the kitchen staff to pack up the food I prepared for Toby." With that, she headed

inside the kitchen.

Sonia did not mind waiting and sat back down on the couch.

After about ten minutes, Grace returned with the well-packed food and gave the bag to Sonia while not forgetting

to remind her not to spill them.

Sonia patiently promised that she would be careful. Then, she was sent out by Grace and got in her car to leave.

It was already past 1.00PM when she returned to the hospital.

Toby had been awake for a while and was leaning against the bed while reading a book.

The moment she opened the door and entered the room, he looked up from the sound, and joy appeared on his

handsome face. "You're back."

"Yes, I am." She smiled and put down her bag before approaching him. "When did you wake up?"

"Half an hour ago." He closed his book.

She was surprised. "So soon? That means you haven't been sleeping for long."

"How can I sleep when you're not here?" He shook his head lightly.

Smiling resignedly, Sonia teased, "So, you really can't survive without me, can you? What if I have to go to work?

Will you stay up the whole day?"

"No, I won't." Toby looked at her and answered firmly, "I know you'll be worried if I don't sleep, so I'll force myself to

rest."

"That sounds more like it." After listening to his answer, she felt satisfied. Then, she brought over the bag and

placed it by the bed. "Have you eaten?"

"Nope." While pointing at the food on the small table nearby, he explained, "Tom brought some food from the hotel,

but I didn't have an appetite, so I left it there."

"I knew it." She sighed. This guy can't accept having anyone else take care of his meals, so he'd rather not eat and

reject anyone's care.

That was why she returned at this time because she needed to help this young master, who did not like anyone

near him, diligently have his meal. Otherwise, she would have enjoyed staying at the Lane Residence and

accompanying Grace for a women's talk, but she had to rush back here for him.

"Mrs. Lane told me to bring you some food. She said you ate a lot of these when you visited last time and thought

you might like them." While Sonia explained, she opened the bag and took out the food containers that still felt

warm.

Toby glanced at them and said, "Please thank Mrs. Lane for this."

"Don't worry. I thanked her already. Here, eat your food." She gave him a spoon.

He received it and finally began indulging in them.

While seated beside him, Sonia stared at the man with affection. A while later, she suddenly realized something and

began observing his face with narrowed eyes.

Toby felt uneasy being stared at and stopped eating before looking at her with a puzzled face. "What's the matter?"

"Darling, I think you might've gotten chubbier." She leaned in and took a closer look. "Yes, you have indeed gained

weight."

Although it was not obvious, she could still tell after taking a closer look.

When he heard that, he chuckled. "Yes, I did gain some weight."

How could he not know the changes in his body? Surely, he knew he had gained weight.

"It's normal. I can't exercise and have been taking a lot of drugs that contain hormones, so this is inevitable. Also,

it's already a blessing that I didn't grow out of shape." He readily accepted the truth that he had gained weight.

After all, this was not his first.

When he went through his first heart surgery, he gained twenty pounds. It was until he was fully healed that he had

the time to reduce his weight.

"So, you did realize that. Isn't it bad?" Sonia was no longer worried, seeing he was aware of his body changes.

He continued eating while explaining, "It's not the worst thing to happen since I can easily lose them. How about

you? Do you think I'm not as hot after gaining weight?"

In reality, worrying about weight gain and appearance was not only a problem for women, for men had the same

worries as well, especially taken men. That was because they feared their partners might dislike them!
