Chapter 1425 Zane's Question
Chapter 1425 Zane's Question
Zane's expression changed drastically. "What? She almost killed Sonia and her child? What happened?" He felt like he had received a great blow.
Toby did not beat around the bush and told Zane the ins and outs of the incident.
After that, Zane took a step back in disbelief. "S-Sonia is Titus' daughter?"
"That's right." Toby looked at Zane. "Actually, you guys must have long thought about it. You guys should have found something strange with Sonia's identity when we found that the necklace is in her hand. If Henry really killed Rina back then, why did he keep the necklace? Don't tell me it's for commemorative purposes."
Consequently, Zane was struck speechless. Yeah, Sonia has the daughter's necklace. It's very suspicious, but we never dwelled on it for long.
"Why did everything turn out this way?" His mind was in a state of mess. "No wonder you claimed that Taylor nearly killed Sonia and her child. She must be agitated after she learned the truth about her identity."
No one would remain calm after learning of such information, let alone Sonia, who was pregnant in the first place and not in the pink of health. It was a blessing that she did not die on the spot.
"Are the Grays aware of this?" After a long pause, Zane finally found his voice and raised an inquiry.
Toby leaned against the cold wall. "Yes, they learned about it today. I went and told them myself."
"Why?" Zane felt puzzled. "Isn't it enough to let only Sonia learn about it? Why did you tell them?"
"Because I want to see Titus' attitude toward Sonia and whether he'll make a choice for her sake."
"What do you mean?"
Toby looked at him indifferently. "Little Leaf broke down when she learned about her identity because she's tied up in the grudge between the two families, and she's having complicated feelings toward her biological parents. So, she doesn't know whether she should avenge the Reeds. If she doesn't, she wouldn't be able to repay her debt to the Reeds for raising her. If she does, it means that she's going to send her biological parents to prison, but she can't take it either. Being stuck in the middle, it's very likely that she'll try to kill herself just to avoid everything. Even if she doesn't do so, she'll be depressed for the rest of her life until she loses herself. I don't want to see my wife succumb to such a painful end, so I told Titus everything today."
"What happened then?"
"Well…" Toby pursed his thin lips. "I wanted to see if Titus will show some fatherly love for Little Leaf after he learned that she's his daughter. If he does, he'll realize how much pain will befall Sonia at the moment. After that, he'll definitely do something to not let Sonia suffer such pain. The thing he must do is give up treatment. If he chooses to die, Sonia's hatred toward the Grays will disappear. She won't think of taking revenge again, and she won't be in pain because of the grudge between the Reeds and the Grays."
Zane finally understood Toby's thoughts, so he nodded. "So, Titus should really know about this. If he dies, everyone will gain peace in the end. This is indeed an excellent resolution, but will Titus agree to it?" That was what he was most worried about. At the end of the day, it was a fact that Sonia was raised by the Reeds.
If Titus felt no fatherly love for Sonia because Sonia was raised by his enemy and hated him to the core, then Toby's scheme would fail. So, the thing he was most worried about was whether Titus had agreed to it or not.
"He agreed to it."
Toby's answer made Zane go from anxious to excited all of a sudden. "What? Titus agreed?"
"Yeah, that's right." Toby nodded. "After I left Titus' place, he called me and said yes, but he wants to see Sonia before that."
"He actually agreed to it." Zane clenched his fists. He was filled with both joy and surprise. "I didn't expect him to accept the fact that Sonia was raised by his enemy, and he's fine with it even though Sonia hates them. He agreed to it so straightforwardly." NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
"It's most probably the only good thing about him." Toby elaborated lightly with pursed lips, "I've got to say that we've underestimated Titus. We always thought that he was a stingy, narrow-minded, envious, and intolerant person. We felt that he has nothing good about him, but surprisingly, he cares about his family so much."
It was what they had expected, but it came as a surprise too.
"Well, it worked out in the end. Titus accepting Sonia will only do good for her, but is she aware of it?" Zane inquired.
Toby shook his head. "I haven't told her yet, but I'm planning to tell her later."
"You'd better tell her no matter what. After all, they're her biological parents. Although there are many obstacles between them, and she may choose not to see them as her parents, they're the ones who gave birth to her. She may never see them again if she rejects it this time around."
"Well, I know. I'll tell her, but I'll support her no matter what choice she makes in the end," Toby stated lightly.
Zane nodded. "That's true."
"Okay, I've told you everything. Just go if there's nothing else." Toby started driving Zane away.
Zane's lips twitched slightly. "Wait, there's one more thing. Let me see Taylor."
"Why?" Toby narrowed his eyes.
"Regardless, I was the one who found her and hired her previously. I should see her, and I've got some questions to ask her too," Zane replied.
"What kind of questions?"
"Of course, I want to ask her if she regrets her choice back then. Don't worry. She nearly killed Sonia, after all. I won't let her go."
Toby gave him a firm look. After a while, he beckoned his bodyguard over. The bodyguard then led Zane to Taylor. After that, he closed the door and went back into the ward.
When Sonia noticed that he was back, she put down the phone in her hand. "Did you see him off?"
"Yes." Toby walked over and sat on the edge of the bed before he pulled her into his arms. "You're scrolling on your phone again."
"I'm bored, and I've got to check my phone because I want to know what happened out there too." Sonia smiled at him.
Toby caressed her face, but he did not intend to take her phone away. Although he disagreed with her action of playing with her phone because of the radiation, she was right. He could not stop her from playing with it because it was just too extreme.
"Darling, there's something I want to tell you." Toby hugged her and leaned against the headboard.
She leaned against his chest and stated, "Go on. I'm listening."
"I didn't go to the company today. I went to Trifecta Hospital instead," he confessed.
Sonia appeared confused. "Trifecta Hospital? Why did you go there?" Is there anyone receiving treatment there? Was he there for a visit?
He pressed his thin lips together when he noticed her confusion. "Titus is there."
Her eyes narrowed abruptly as she did not expect to hear Titus' name all of a sudden.
Toby could feel her stiffen briefly in his arms, and he sighed. "Darling, please don't get too agitated. Calm down, okay?"
