Chapter 1380

I'll give him some more time, Sonia thought.

Subsequently, the bathroom door opened from the inside, and Toby wheeled himself out. He noticed she was

currently holding her phone in a dazed state, so he asked, "Who were you on the phone with?"

He heard her talking to someone when he was showering. There was no one else in this room other than the two of

them, so she could only be talking to someone on the phone.

Sonia did not hide things from him and wheeled him over to the bed. "I was talking to Charles. I reckoned that I

should let him know about Carl's disappearance since he's friends with him. It's not something we should keep a

secret, anyway."

"So, what was his reaction?" He sat by the edge of the bed.

She tucked him into bed. "Charles reacted the same way as you did. He said he expected this day from the start."

"Not surprising." He leaned half of his body against the headboard. "Carl had always been transparent, so everyone

could easily predict his ultimate ending."

"But I couldn't!" The gloomy Sonia lowered her eyelids.

Toby comforted her by ruffling her hair. "This isn't your fault. You were busy enough dealing with Paradigm Co., so

you didn't have the energy and time to consider anything else. Forget about it, and stop blaming yourself. It's time

for you to go to bed."

She looked at him and tried to force a smile as she grunted affirmatively and got into bed.

It was a restless night for her, and she dreamt of Carl. Inside her dream, he stood in a darkened spot and smiled at

her. As she dashed over delightedly, he stopped her from approaching and bid her goodbye.

Following that, he turned around and headed toward the endless darkness. He took a few steps forward, and his

body shimmered and evolved into stars before disappearing into thin air.

Frantic, she rushed forward to try to stop him from disappearing, but she was not quick enough. In the end, she

managed to grab some glittering starlight left of Carl. Even so, she could not hold on to the specks, which vanished

in her palm.

At that point, she broke down and fell to the ground as she sobbed in the darkness, inconsolable.

After wailing for some time, she heard a faint voice echoing through the dimension. Darling…

She lifted her head slowly and noticed a flash of light on top of her. Then, a slender hand stretched out from the

glint toward her.

Instinctively, she reached out to grasp the hand. After gripping it, she felt the darkness around her fade and finally

dissipate completely. Instead, there was a sea of brightness in return.

Sonia shivered and suddenly opened her eyes to realize she was next to Toby. The surroundings were bright

because it was now daytime.

The man finally heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing her widened eyes. "You're awake!"

In response, she turned to look at Toby, whose head lowered while staring at her with a worried expression. Slightly

confused, she blinked and asked, "What happened?"

"You had a bad dream." He held out a piece of tissue and tenderly wiped the side of her eyes for her. "I heard you

speaking in your dreams just as dawn was about to break. When I woke up, I heard you mention Carl's name

repeatedly. Then, you started to sob. I knew by then that you must've dreamt of him. I didn't plan to wake you up,

but after seeing your sobs get out of control, I decided to do so. I didn't expect to fail despite multiple attempts and

was worried."

Sonia noticed the dark circles underneath his eyes and knew he must have trouble falling asleep because of her. As

such, she could not help feeling guilty.

She turned to the side and wrapped her arms around his waist before snuggling her face into his chest. "I'm sorry

for making you worry."

"I'm your husband, so it's my duty to be concerned about your well-being." He patted her gently on her lower back.

"So, what happened in your dream with Carl?"

She bit her lower lip. "He said goodbye to me." Subsequently, she told him everything that happened in her dreams.

After hearing her recount, he comforted her and said, "Although dreams aren't real, this is a good thing too. At

least you got the chance to see him. Why don't you treat this dream as his final words for you?"

She had no choice but to nod affirmatively. After all, Carl was gone, so there was nothing else she could do other

than take this dream as his farewell.

She knew she could not summon him back into consciousness, so she decided to accept the reality.

At that moment, Sonia glanced at the ring on her right middle finger. It was a gift from Carl that she had worn since

she filed for divorce from Toby.

After the couple got back together, there were times when Toby found the ring an eyesore and wanted to get rid of

it, but she managed to stop him from doing so.

She appreciated the ring very much and could not bear to take it off because it was a gift from Carl. Yet, at that

moment, she had no choice but to remove it.

She would store the ring safely and keep it as a final remembrance, but she would no longer wear it on her hand

because she was worried that it would be damaged if she wore it all the time. By then, she would have nothing to

remember him by.

Sonia sat up from Toby's arms and slowly removed the ring from her finger in front of him.

She had three rings worn on both hands. One was from Carl, which occupied her right middle finger.

The others were her wedding rings from Toby. One was purchased in a mall six years ago when they married but

was auctioned off by her later. With millions, he won the bid and ended up retrieving their first wedding ring. After

they got back together, he returned the ring to her, which settled on her left middle finger from then on.

Lastly, the third ring was the one Toby instructed Tom to purchase on his behalf before the new year when they

registered their marriage. She wore that on her left ring finger.

Now that she had removed Carl's ring, only two wedding rings were on her left hand.

On that note, Toby also wore the same ones on his left ring and middle finger.

His eyes sparkled upon seeing Sonia remove the ring, and he tried to suppress a smile as he asked, "Why did you

remove it?"

She wrapped the ring in a piece of tissue and replied, "I want to store it as a remembrance. I won't wear it

anymore. I can bring it out and reminisce about Carl when I miss him. If I keep wearing the ring, it might damage,

which would be a disaster."

In response, Toby nodded as an acknowledgment. He could not seem to contain the happiness in his eyes. Indeed,

that ring had been an eyesore for years! Rings were supposed to be sacred, so they should not be gifted at

random.

Carl had given Sonia a ring, so clearly, he had an ulterior motive. She was the only one who truly believed that his

gift was a token of brotherly love with no romance behind it.

As such, Toby had always hoped to remove that ring from her finger and get rid of it. Due to her reluctance, he

could only convince himself to ignore it since he did not wish to remove it forcefully and upset her. Still, the ring

remained an annoying reminder of his vow to feign ignorance and so he persevered until today.

Initially, he thought the ring would settle on her finger for the rest of her life, but life had always been full of twists

and surprises. At long last, she removed it!

Meanwhile, Sonia could vividly sense the joy radiating from the man. It was further confirmed when she raised her

gaze and caught the exhilaration in his eyes.

Amused, she said, "Careful. Your excitement is showing."
