Chapter 1450 The Two Men
Taylor had never imagined that human lives would be so worthless to these people. Tim, on the other hand, was
extremely satisfied with Taylor's reaction. "So, for the next experiment, you better cooperate if you want to stay
alive."
"I'll cooperate! I'll cooperate!" Taylor nodded fearfully. Everyone was afraid of death, and she was no exception.
Now that she had fallen into the hands of this man, she could do nothing but comply and persevere if she wanted to
stay alive.
"Good." Tim nodded in satisfaction as he injected the needle into her arm. Taylor closed her eyes in pain and let the
tears flow. If she had known she would end up like this one day, she would never have gone to find Sonia.
Naturally, Sonia had no idea about all of this.
The next day, Sonia personally sent Toby to the airport. Toby didn't want her to go as it would be tiring for her to
travel back and forth, but Sonia insisted on tagging along. Toby couldn't resist her, so he agreed. They said goodbye
for half an hour at the airport before Toby boarded his private plane and disappeared into the clouds. Sonia stood
on the observation deck watching the plane disappear and only left the airport under Mary's persuasion.
Toby's departure was known to everyone, especially Charles and Zane. Upon learning of Toby's departure, they
immediately came to the hospital to visit Sonia. They couldn't come when Toby was around as he forbade them
from doing so. Now that he was gone, the opportunity had come. That was why the two of them came at the same
time and bumped into each other.
Sonia looked at Zane, then at Charles, and couldn't help but laugh. These two men looked at each other with
contempt at the moment.
"Why are you here?" Charles asked, disgusted.
Zane clicked his tongue as was equally disgusted with Charles' ostentatious appearance. Turning his head, he said,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I came to visit Sonia. Why else would I be here?"
"You're not welcome here, so leave quickly." Charles grabbed Zane's arm and tried to drag him out.
However, would Zane be obediently dragged away? He clearly wouldn't. So, no matter how hard Charles pulled,
Zane held on tight to the doorframe. The two men couldn't overpower each other and were tired out like two silly
children.
Sonia and Mary were watching and laughing at the scene. "Young Mistress Sonia, look at these two…" Mary pointed
at them, laughing and crying at the same time.
Sonia shook her head helplessly. "They're always like this. Even though they don't meet often, they fight like two
roosters every time they do. Just let them be."
She was used to it.
"Okay, I'll go make tea. When they get tired of fighting, they'll be thirsty," Mary said with a smile as she started
walking toward the kitchen.
Sonia laughed as she read her book, watching the two childish men still trying to drive each other away. After some
time, they both realized that they couldn't force the other to leave and accepted the fact. They thereafter let go of
each other and walked into the ward, snorting. Then, they greeted Sonia.
"I'm here to see you. Have you been okay these past few days?" Charles placed the gift he brought next to her and
asked.
Zane also brought a gift, which he placed down along with the others, and said, "I see that you haven't been as pale
as before, so your health should be better."
"Thank you for your concern," Sonia replied with a smile.
"Indeed. With Mary taking care of me, my health has improved a lot and I'm not as sore as before."
"That's good." The two men nodded in relief.
Just then, Mary brought in some freshly brewed tea and some snacks.
Zane picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. "This is great, Mary. I'm thirsty."
"Hehe. Go ahead and drink. I brewed it just for you guys," Mary said, looking at Sonia. "Young Mistress Sonia, what
did I say earlier? I got it right, didn't I?"
Sonia smiled and gave her a thumbs-up.
Charles and Zane looked at them. "Sonny, what were you guys talking about? What did she get right?"
They didn't quite understand. Mary had no intention of hiding anything as it wasn't much of a secret. So, she smiled
and repeated her words, "I was saying that you two gentlemen would definitely be thirsty after arguing. Isn't that
right?"
Charles and Zane both twitched their lips, feeling speechless. Following that, Zane pointed at Charles. "It's all this
guy's fault. He insisted on driving me away. We're all here to visit, and he's not Sonia's husband. Yet, he dares to act
like he is one and tries to drive me away. I argued with him, so how could I not be thirsty?"
Charles also retorted without backing down, "Although I'm not her husband, I'm her brother. With you being noisy
here, you'll only make it hard for her to rest. What's wrong with me driving you away?"
"You're Sonia's brother, but I'm Toby's buddy. I also think you're noisy and you'll only make it hard for her to rest. I
want to drive you away. Am I wrong?" Zane countered.
The two men started arguing back and forth while Sonia smiled and shook her head. "Okay, okay, don't leave. Stay
here with me and chat; don't argue anymore."
She was afraid that they were going to argue again. If they kept arguing, she didn't know how long it would take for
them to stop. She regretted not separating them earlier and having them come at different times. If that was the
case, they wouldn't have argued so much and made her head buzz.
"Did you hear that? Sonny told you to stop arguing." Charles glared at Zane with disdain.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZane naturally retorted, "She told you to stop arguing too. Just shut up."
They snorted at each other and finally stopped. After that, Charles brought out his gift. "Sonny, look. I brought you a
gift. It was my mother's suggestion. She said that women are prone to back pain and swelling during pregnancy,
especially in the later months. This massager is specifically designed to relieve back pain and reduce swelling."
He handed the gift over. Sonia hadn't spoken yet when Mary was pleasantly surprised and took the gift. "Oh, Mr.
Lane, you are so thoughtful. I was planning to prepare this for Young Mistress Sonia when she's five months
pregnant. I didn't expect you to have already prepared it. That's great! We don't have to buy it now. Hehe."
"Charles, thank you, and thank your mother for me," Sonia gratefully said to Charles with a smile.
Charles waved his hand. "It's nothing. You're my little sister and my mom's goddaughter. We're your family, so it's
only right that we do these things for you. As long as you like it."
"I do." Sonia nodded.
Charles wanted to say something else, but Zane came over and pushed him aside. "Alright, your gift presentation is
over. It's my turn now."
Although Charles was unhappy, he thought that Zane had something for Sonia, so he could only suppress his
dissatisfaction and snort while walking to the side.
Sonia smiled in amusement and shook her head.
"Sonia, this is what I brought for you specifically. It's all kinds of rare delicacies and medicinal herbs that the
villagers gave me during my last trip to the countryside. Even in the mountains, these are not easy to come by, and
they can't be bought in the city at all. I heard that these are great for making soup and are very nutritious for the
body, so I brought them for you." Zane handed the bag to Mary.
Mary opened it and a surprised look was instantly plastered on her face. "Oh my, these are really top-quality
delicacies. The last time I saw these was when I was in my hometown 30 years ago. After my hometown got
redeveloped into a city, the mountains disappeared, and I haven't seen these since. Mr. Coleman, thank you so
much. These are really good for Young Mistress Sonia. I'll make some soup for her with these ingredients," Mary
said with a smile.
