Truly a Hereditary Disease
He had to know if she had inherited Titus’ kidney failure.
If she did, then it would still be early if they found out now, so she could be cured soon. Otherwise, if
this dragged on and they couldn’t find a replacement kidney for her later, things would be more
troublesome.
After all, because of Titus’ special condition, he still couldn’t find a replacement kidney until now.
What if Sonia inherited the same special conditions as well?
Toby didn’t dare bet on it, so the only thing he could do right now was to find out early and prevent it
before it got worse.
Sonia didn’t know what the man was so anxious about. Seeing his serious expression, she couldn’t
help but be amused. “Even though some people do fall sick all of a sudden, I am definitely not one of
them. Remember, I’m still taking supplements right now. Every time before giving me the supplements,
Tim will run a quick checkup on me. He never mentioned anything wrong with my body, so that means
I’m in the pink. So, this incident that happened to Rina won’t happen to me. Rina became like this
probably because she inherited this disease from Titus, or something terrible happened to her when
she was young, which manifested its aftereffects only now. I don’t have either of those conditions, so I’ll
be fine. Don’t worry.”
She patted the man’s tense shoulder, a gesture telling the man that he should relax and stop worrying
too much.
However, she didn’t know that even if she said so, the man couldn’t stop worrying, nor could he relax.
Because she was Titus’ real daughter.
“You also said that Tim only did simple checkups on you instead of a more comprehensive one. So if
something really is going on, he wouldn’t be able to notice it. You’d better get a full body checkup,”
Toby said as he looked at Sonia.
Sonia frowned, her pretty eyebrows knitting together. “Why do I feel like you’re very sure that there’s
something wrong with me? Are you so sure that I have some sort of illness?”
She shifted closer to the man and stared at him with an intense look, as if trying to figure out some
clues from the man’s face.
But the man hid his thoughts well, and there was nothing out of the ordinary showing on his face.
So, Sonia looked at him for a while, but she couldn’t find anything different.
“Why would I think that you’re definitely ill?” Toby put down his wine glass and took her hand. “I wish,
more than anyone, that you’re perfectly healthy. I was just really worried that the same thing that
happened to Rina might happen to you. I was really shocked by Rina this time.” Toby lowered his gaze
as he spoke in his emotionless voice.
He was really shocked.
However, it wasn’t because of Rina. Instead, Sonia’s words had frightened him.
If she hadn’t suddenly mentioned the hereditary disease just now, he really didn’t think that she might
also inherit the illness.
Sonia stared at the man for a while, then smiled. “You’re shocked just by that? Since when are you so
easily spooked? This isn’t like you.”
“Because I’m worried about you.” Toby gently caressed her face. As he gazed at her, she saw a look in
his eyes that she couldn’t quite decipher.
Sonia was silent for a while before she said, “Will you rest assured only after I do a full body checkup?”
She believed that he had asked her to go for a full body checkup because of this sudden incident with
Rina, and he was worried that the same thing might happen to her.
However, for an unknown reason, she could faintly feel that there was something wrong somewhere.
As if he did this not solely for this reason, and he might have some other reason he hadn’t disclosed.
However, she couldn’t confirm her suspicions from this man’s expressions.
After all, the man only expressed concern for her, and there was nothing out of the ordinary other than
that.
Perhaps she really was overthinking it, and he really was just concerned about her health.
Just like how she worried about him smoking.
At that thought, Sonia managed to convince herself. She smiled at the man once again. “If you’re really
worried because of this, let’s go then.”
Hearing that the woman finally relented and agreed to a full body checkup, Toby nodded and smiled.
“Good. Let’s go tomorrow morning.”
He needed to know about her health conditions as soon as possible, or he wouldn’t be at ease.
Seeing the man’s anxious behavior, Sonia didn’t know if she should laugh or cry. Nevertheless, she felt
very warm in her heart.
After her parents’ passing, there was almost no one left in this world who would care about her.
There were three people who cared about her in the Lane Family, plus Rose, Carl, and Leonard, which
totaled to six people.
However, these six people all had their own families and lives and businesses to attend to, so they
couldn’t be concerned about her all the time. There were even common instances where they lost
contact for days and weeks on end.
So, compared to them, Toby’s constant concern for her as he stayed by her side was the most
touching, and also the warmest to her.
As she thought about this, Sonia suddenly wrapped her arms around the man’s waist and buried
herself in the man’s arms.
The man was stunned, then responded with a smile as he hugged her back. He patted her back lightly
and said in a soft voice, “What’s the matter? Why the sudden show of affection?”
“It’s not that.” Sonia humphed in the man’s arms, her eyes closed but her lips in a smile. “I’m just
thanking you.”
“Thanking me?” Toby raised an eyebrow. “For what?”
“I’m thanking you for your meticulous love and care.” Sonia nudged at his chest. “Aside from you, I
don’t think anyone else would be so concerned about me.”
Toby’s expression softened. “I am your man, so it’s only natural that I do these things for you. Just like
how you were worried about me, I feel the same toward you. So you don’t have to thank me at all.
Alright now, we haven’t eaten much, so let’s eat more.”
With that, Toby gently pushed her away from his embrace.
This was his first time breaking away from their hugs of his own accord.
This man, after all, was someone who wanted to take as much advantage as possible.
When she got close to him, he wouldn’t let go of her so easily.
But now, his actions were indeed surprising.
Sonia chuckled and took up her fork as she continued eating.
But Toby didn’t have much of an appetite as he kept tapping away at his phone.
Sonia asked him about it, and he only said that he was replying to Tom on some business matters.
Seeing his serious expression, with his eyebrows tightly knitted together, Sonia didn’t suspect him one
bit. She ate quietly, trying not to bother him too much in his conversation with Tom.
She was wondering, though, why Toby didn’t just call Tom and talk. Still, perhaps Tom was busy with
something and couldn’t talk over the phone.
Seeing that Sonia’s attention was completely diverted, Toby sighed in relief and began looking at the
contents displayed on his phone.
Just now, he was contacting Tim and asking the latter about Titus’ kidney failure, especially in the
hereditary department.
When he saw Tim’s reply, Toby pursed his thin lips into a line, his heart sinking. His grip on his phone
tightened as well, as if threatening to crush the phone into smithereens. Even the air around him
seemed to gain weight.
Tim said that Titus’ kidney failure was truly a hereditary disease, and the chances of it getting passed
down was very high. There would be one with the disease in every three generations.
The last one was Titus’ great grandfather.
And this fact was something Titus found from the files at home when he first found out he had kidney
failure, and he had reported that to the hospital.
That kidney failure was truly a hereditary disease instead of the occasionally occurring ones that didn’t
get inherited.
Toby gritted his teeth, anger boiling in his heart. He hadn’t expected that the Grays would have this
hereditary disease!
