Chapter 861 It Finally Came

”But…” Sonia instantly lifted her head from his shoulder upon hearing what he said. As she looked at

his attractive face, she was tempted to do as told.

The next moment, she quickly shook her head and rejected. ”It’s alright. Anya might be arriving soon.”

”What if she doesn’t?” Toby asked her.

She rolled her eyes at him as she replied, ”You always disagree with me.”

”That isn’t my intention. Don’t you think that there might be a chance that Anya might not turn up? Toby

looked at Sonia earnestly. ”How are we to know whether she’d come for sure? What if she doesn’t? Are

you going to keep trying to stay awake while waiting for her? Don’t you feel groggy?”

Sonia didn’t know how to reply when she heard the logical points he made. Of course, she felt groggy.

She was so tired that she felt light-headed.

He sighed and pulled her into his arms when he noticed that she was so tired that she might fall asleep

at a moment’s notice. Then, he gently arranged her, so her head was laid on his lap. ”Have some

sleep. It doesn’t matter when she reaches. Just sleep while we have time. How would you have the

energy to face her later if you lack rest? You might not have the energy to confront her.”

Sonia nodded thoughtfully when she heard his suggestions. ”What you said makes sense, and you’ve

successfully convinced me. Okay, I’ll take a nap. Wake me up once she is here?

”Yes, I will.” Toby nodded slightly and said, ”I’m here, so just sleep.”

Toby’s words gave Sonia a sense of security. Then, she smiled as she shut her eyes and mumbled

softly, ”Fine, I’ll take a nap, but don’t you feel tired?”

”I’m not tired,” he replied gently as he stroked her long, silky hair. ”Haven’t I told you before that I can

stay up for two consecutive nights without issues? As of now, it hasn’t been that long yet.”

”Alright, you’re incredible. I can’t do something like that. Just remember to wake me up.”

Sonia yawned once again after completing her sentence and closed her eyes at ease.

Soon, her breathing deepened and slowed as she fell asleep.

Toby smiled as he looked at her while gently touching her face with the back of his hand.

She truly was one of a kind, being able to fall asleep at the drop of a hat.

After he slowly freed one of his hands, he briefly tapped on his smartphone and quickly kept it away.

Soon after, the door of the lounge cracked open. A female officer walked in with a blanket and

whispered, ”President Fuller, this is the blanket you requested.”

He stretched his hand out without saying a word.

The female officer walked over quietly when she noticed his actions. Once she was not far from him,

she paused and passed the blanket to him.

After Toby received the blanket from her, he gave her a nod of thanks.

The female officer merely waved him off with a smile and left the room, not before glancing an envious

look at Sonia, who was sleeping on his lap.

As she left the room, she quietly shut the door, not making any noise at all.

It was obvious that she had received Toby’s instruction beforehand to be quiet so that she didn’t

interrupt Sonia’s sleep.

Slowly, he unfolded the blanket and covered Sonia with it.

Sonia squirmed, feeling a bit unused to the sensation when she sensed something against her body.

Toby thought that he had used too much force when he covered her with the blanket, which woke her

up. So, he swiftly patted her back as if patting a baby to sleep.

Soon, she calmed down again. However, he didn’t stop and continued patting her back lightly.

After some time, someone knocked on the door. It was only then did he stop patting her back, but he

still had his hand on her back.

The person outside seemed to know that Toby would not answer. After knocking twice, she opened the

door.

It was the female officer from before this.

As she stood outside the door, she stuck her head in. ”President Fuller, Ms. Steinfeld has arrived.”

When he heard that name, his expression turned solemn, and his eyes looked cold. The next moment,

he nodded slightly. ”Alright, I’ll be there soon.”

”Sure.” The female officer smiled and then retracted her head.

In the lounge, Toby looked at Sonia, who was sleeping soundly in his arms. His gaze darkened as if he

was contemplating whether to wake her up now that Anya had reached.

But he was reluctant to as she was sleeping so soundly.

In the end, after some contemplation, he decided not to wake her up as he could take care of matters

like this himself.

At that thought, he lifted her head and slowly moved it away from his lap.

When he had raised her head high enough to make space for himself, he slowly got up and stood at

the edge of the couch. Then he grabbed the pillow by his side when he was seated and put it under her

head before tucking her in.

His maneuvering wasn’t much, but it wasn’t exactly indiscernible either.

But since Sonia was in a deep sleep, she wasn’t awakened by him. So, she just moved her head on

the pillow a bit and continued sleeping.

As Toby stood on the edge of the couch, he stretched his sore arms and legs while looking at her

tenderly.

The discomfort and stiffness of the body that he felt for maintaining the same posture for two hours was

worth it as he looked at her sleeping so soundly.

Loving her meant that he would give her his best.

After Toby massaged his arm, he bent down to kiss Sonia on her cheeks. Only then did he turn around

and walk toward the door.

When he left the room, the female officer was still there.

When she saw that he came out alone, she was rather surprised, so she looked into the room. Then,

as she saw Sonia sleeping soundly on the couch, she was perplexed. ”President Toby, is Ms. Reed not

joining us?” she asked.

”Since she’s still sleeping, let’s just let her be. I’ll handle this myself,” Toby replied nonchalantly as he

closed the door.

The female officer stopped asking and nodded, feeling even more envious of Sonia.

She was envious that Sonia had such a great boyfriend.

How nice would it be if she could have such a great boyfriend as well?

Alas, it wasn’t that easy!

The female officer sighed and shook her head. Then, she set her thoughts aside and acted

professionally as her job required.

”President Fuller, this way, please.” She looked at Toby while showing him the way.

With a nod, he followed behind her.

At that moment, Anya was giving her statement in the interview room.

However, since the man in the interrogation room had not confessed that the person who hired him

was Anya, she was only considered a suspect. Thus, she wasn’t required to be interrogated in the

interrogation room.

Because of that, the officers couldn’t send her to the interrogation room, and she was only sent to the

interview room to have her statement recorded.

As soon as Toby arrived, the officers were showing her pictures of the man in the interrogation room,

asking whether she knew him.

When Anya looked at the picture, a shrewd gleam flashed across her eyes, and she replied calmly, ”I

don’t know him.”

”Is that true?” Toby squinted his eyes and asked.

When they heard the unexpected voice, everyone turned and looked toward the door.

Even though Toby interrupted the questioning, the officers weren’t displeased about it. Instead, they

stood up and greeted him, ”President Fuller.”

Toby nodded at them and glared at Anya, who was sitting at the other end of the table. His gaze was

cold and held an undisguised killing intent.

When she saw his glare, her face turned pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

It was terrifying that he would now glare at her with such vicious eyes. Before this, he would look at her

with…

Anya bit her lips as the thought of it made her irate and frustrated.
