"Why would you think that way?" Toby held her face with both hands and stared at her seriously. "I will
understand, and I've never thought your ideas were bad. They're still our children, and we're their
parents. We owe it to that child, so it's only right we include them."
Sonia's eyes were red, and she nodded tearily.
"Where do you want our new home to be?" he asked her gingerly before letting go of her face.
They had just remarried, so it was normal for them to look for a house. However, they had spent most
of their days in the hospital and did not return to Bayside Residence or others for that matter.
Now, it was possible to plan for their new home. As soon as the baby was born, they could move in
immediately.
Bayside Residence was certainly not suitable for them. Since they were about to have a child, that
place would be too small without enough space for the whole family.
The child should also have a room, and the nannies should always be on guard.
He did not want the child to sleep with them. Otherwise, it would mean that the nannies could go in and
out of the room as they wished.
Sonia knew he was right, so when he asked about their new home, she began to think about where to
stay. After a while, she could not think of a suitable place. In the end, it was Mary who suggested an area, "Young Mistress Sonia, why don't you stay at the Four
Seasons Residence?"
"Four Seasons Residence?" Sonia was caught off guard. She knew Four Seasons Residence was a
gated community that had been developed just two years ago. Each villa in the residence was worth
hundreds of millions, so she looked at the man. "You have a property there too?"
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookToby was noncommittal with his reply. "Of course. When the construction ended, the man asked me if I
wanted a house there. I asked him to reserve a random one for me, but he left the main house for me
to get my money's worth. The main house is in a good spot, so I bought it. Now that I think about it, it's
a good place for us to start our family there. It's far from Fuller Residence, but it isn't that far from
Paradigm. What do you think?"
Sonia thought about it for a while and decided it was plausible.
Mary smiled and said, "Young Master Toby, you've never stayed there. Although it's partially furnished,
many things are missing. Do you want me to get someone to fill up the place for you?"
To be honest, it would be more meaningful for the bride to plan out the new house. However, with
Sonia's condition, how could she object to Mary's suggestion for arranging it?
"I owe you one, Mary," she thanked with a grateful smile.
Mary waved her hand dismissively. "It's no trouble. What do you and the young master like? I'll get
someone to prepare it." "Don't worry about what we prefer for now. We'll write it down after we discuss it," Toby said as he
picked up a piece of fruit from the plate.Although it was good to eat fruits, they should not be consumed
in large quantities at once. He saw that Sonia had eaten a lot, so the rest should be kept for later.
Mary thought their request was reasonable, so she did not say anything else.
Then, Toby looked at Sonia. "The house at the Four Seasons Residence is massive with a total of a
thousand square meters and four floors in total. We can prepare one floor each for the children as their
rooms, including the entertainment room, study room, and playroom. We'll still have a lot of space no
matter what."
"Alright." Sonia nodded.
Mary listened to the couple's conversation and sighed discreetly. She knew which other child they were
referring to.
Speaking of which, the first child was indeed pitiful.
If…
Well, this was life.
It was all because of that woman, Tina Gray. If it were not for her, the relationship between Toby and
Sonia would not have faced so many hardships. That woman was truly wicked, and Mary hated her
down to the core. "By the way, who was that on the phone earlier? You looked very serious. Is there something wrong
with the company? If you have something to do, you can go first," asked Sonia when she recalled
Toby's expression earlier.
The man shook his head and replied, "There are no issues with the company. It's Titus."
She immediately narrowed her eyes. "What's up with him?"
Did he pass? If so…
She suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort. She wanted to say that it would be a great joy if that
were the case, yet she could not say that at all. Truthfully, she did not even dare to think so.
What is this feeling?
Confusion flashed across her eyes, and she did not understand where her discomfort was coming
from.
Toby did not notice anything unusual about her reaction and took a sip of water from the glass. He
explained, "I heard his situation has worsened, and he was sent to another hospital by ambulance."
"That's all?" She tilted her head up in acknowledgment. She did not prod further because she did not
know what to ask. For some reason, it felt like her heart was racing yet suffocating at the same time.
Toby finally noticed her discomfort and touched her forehead. "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
She forced a smile. "Yeah, I'm okay. I don't know why, but I feel upset."His eyes darkened when he heard her words. Without any remarks, he merely hugged her instead.
Meanwhile, at the Gray Residence, Rina was partially worried about Titus and partly resenting the
guards outside. She knew they were there to ensure her presence away from Sonia. However, she did
not expect Toby to be so heartless.
He wanted her to watch her father die. Doesn't he know that that's his father-in-law? No, he does. He
just didn't want me to look for Sonia for help. He wants Dad to die, but I can't let that happen! If Dad
died, I would lose his love and care before reverting to poverty!
No matter what the consequences were, she did not want to accept them. She vowed to save her
father no matter what. Before she could do that, she had to leave this place and get Sonia. There are
so many guards out there. How am I gonna leave?
Rina paced around restlessly in the living room and finally made a plan when she saw Julia's coat on
the couch. She hurried upstairs, put on some mature makeup, and changed into her mom's clothes. At
last, she left the villa through a back window.
After clawing her way out, she walked to the other villa from behind the bushes and out from the back.
From there, she walked toward the gates of the villa confidently.
As she paced, she felt a sharp gaze on her back. She knew whom it belonged to, but she did not turn
back and pretended not to notice. Otherwise, once she turned around, she would surely be recognized.
Hence, she feigned ignorance and continued striding forward. Just like that, Rina escaped the villa gates with no issue. Once she stepped out, she let out the breath
she had been holding and panted heavily while patting her chest to catch her breath. Great! This is
great! I finally made it out.
She held back the excitement and called for a cab. "Paradigm Co., please."
The cab driver nodded and started the car.
An hour later, she finally arrived at her destination.
This time, she went to the receptionist and did not introduce herself as Rina. Instead, she was a
saleswoman from another company and wanted to meet with their president to discuss the cooperation
between the two companies.
Unexpectedly, the receptionist told her that their president was absent.
Rina was shocked. "Not in the company? Where did she go?"
The receptionist looked at her suspiciously. "Don't you read the news on the Internet?"
"News? What news?" she asked out loud reflexively. Then, she realized her reaction would cause
suspicion, so she hurriedly tried to cover up. "I'm a businesswoman, so I'm out every day. I don't have
enough time to look through the news on the Internet, so I don't know what's going on. May I ask what
happened to your president?"
