Chapter 1113
Toby was generally a proud man; he would never pay heed to anything at all and suppress himself from anything.
However, ever since he had gotten together with her, it was fair to say that he had indeed changed a lot.
His first concern was her regardless of what he did. As long as there was anything that could potentially bring
trouble for her, then he would suppress himself and tolerate it even if that meant he would be frustrated by it. That
was also why she apologized to him earlier.
As Toby heard her speak, he gently flicked her forehead. "What are you on about? I'm fine with that and I feel
happy."
"How can you be happy?" Sonia touched her forehead at the spot where he had flicked her and she did not quite
comprehend his words.
There was a twinkle in his eyes as he affirmed, "Of course, I'm happy. I'll only make changes or compromise if the
person I love is with me. I'll consider her before I carry out anything because otherwise, I might end up being
forever alone, right?"
She burst into laughter. "That is such a ridiculous excuse that only you could come up with."
"But these are my heartfelt words," said Toby as he looked at her.
Sonia stretched out her other hand to cling to his arm. "Thanks, Toby."
"You don't have to thank me. It's what I should do." Toby switched hands and took her hand with his other one and
then wrapped his arm around her shoulders with the hand he was holding her earlier.
The weather had gotten much colder than before, so Toby's embrace felt very warm.
Sonia tilted her head slightly to lean on his chest. "It doesn't matter. You've done so much for me, so I need to thank
you of course! You can't stop me from doing so."
As she spoke, she lifted her head to stare warningly at him, seemingly indicating that if he rebuked her words, she
would definitely tell him off.
He chuckled in a low voice resignedly. "Okay, fine. I won't stop you. Is that fine with you then?"
"That's more like it."
They continued to walk along hand-in-hand affectionately and every passerby could sense the blissful aura that
surrounded the duo.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheir blissful aura was infectious as the passersby who saw the affectionate couple could not help revealing
knowing smiles.
In this current busy world where love and people were fickle, Toby and Sonia clearly looked blissfully in love with
each other and it was a rare sight to see. As such, the passersby sincerely hoped that the couple would be able to
maintain their happiness.
As soon as they returned to the apartment, Toby entered the house and took out the stack of name cards from the
pocket of his coat. Subsequently, he flung them aside with disgust onto the shoe rack.
Sonia was hunched over as she removed her shoes. After changing into the bedroom slippers, she caught sight of
his action. She could not help asking with a chuckle. "Are you discarding them?"
"They're rubbish." Toby changed into his bedroom slippers and responded calmly as he shot a look at the name
cards.
Then, she reached out to flick through the name cards. "Perhaps there are some potentially great companies
amongst this pile. How can you be so sure that they're rubbish?"
"I've taken a quick look at the information on the name cards when I took them and these tiny companies have
included their products on their name cards too. I can tell what their companies are mainly doing and whether they
have potential just by taking a quick look at their name cards," Toby replied and tucked both hands into his pocket.
At that point, Sonia suddenly nodded and agreed. "Oh, alright. I get it. We can discard them with our trash
tomorrow morning before we leave the house."
"Yup." Tony nodded.
The couple did not stay any longer at the foyer and headed off toward the living room.
Tony poured himself a glass of water and drank it before heading into the bathroom to take a shower.
Meanwhile, Sonia remained on the couch in the living room. She switched on the television as she waited for the
groceries to be delivered from the grocery store.
Sure enough, the delivery service was efficient and Sonia had not even had the television on for more than a few
minutes when she heard the doorbell go off.
She put down the remote control and headed over to the foyer to open the door. Two staff members of the store
carried several bagged groceries and stood at the entrance with smiles on their faces. "Miss Reed, here are the
items you and President Fuller purchased earlier on. He also requested for us to get you some dinner, right here."
The two staff members gestured to show the large shopping bags in their hands.
"Okay. Please, come in." Sonia quickly pulled the door wide open and stepped aside to give them room to enter the
house.
With her permission, the two staff members entered the house with their shoes on and carried the groceries that
they had bought into the room.
The staff members put down the shopping bags in the living room and one of them ruffled through the bag to take
out a delicate paper bag with exquisite wrapping. Next, he presented it to Sonia and said, "Miss Reed, this is the
dinner for you and President Fuller."
She then retrieved it with both hands. "Alright, thank you."
"You're welcome. Miss Reed, we'll be on our way then."
"Thanks again."
Sonia put down their dinner on the dining table and escorted the two staff members out of the door. Finally, she
shut the door behind them and entered the house once they entered the elevator.
She went back into the living room and she could not help shaking her head with a chuckle as she saw the food on
the dining table.
She had originally suggested going grocery shopping to get some ingredients to prepare dinner because they had
run out of fresh supplies.
However, they had spent too much time at the store and it was already over 8.00PM by the time they paid.
It would take too long for them to prepare dinner at home and it would likely be past midnight for them to finish
dinner.
Therefore when Toby paid for the groceries, he requested for the store to get them dinner and to send it over along
with their groceries.
If it was anyone else who had made that same request, they would very likely have gotten a resounding 'no' from
the grocery store. Since it was Toby making that request, the store management agreed without any hesitations;
instead, they were quite eager to please.
Sonia was at a loss for what to say as she recalled the situation from earlier. Subsequently, she opened the bag and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlaid out their dinner.
She had just laid out the food on the table when the bedroom door was opened from the inside and Toby came out
wearing his bathrobe. He walked out while toweling dry his wet hair and he noticed the bags on the ground as well
as the food on the dining table. He paused in his action and draped the towel he was holding around his neck
before walking over to stand behind Sonia. Then, he wrapped his arms around her from behind and nuzzled her
shoulders with his chin. His low voice sounded quite melodious. "When did you receive the items?"
Sonia felt ticklish around her ear lobes as the warm air from his breath hit and she could not help but shrink
backward. "It was just sent over not long ago. Let go of me. I feel ticklish."
That dirty dog! He's great at taking advantage of the situation and he always jumps at the chance as soon as he
gets an opportunity! Here he is behaving indecently right after his shower.
Yet, he pretended that he did not hear her words. Not only did he maintain his hold on her, but he even nibbled on
her reddened ear lobes and was clearly being provocative.
Sonia rolled her eyes and lowered her head to remove the arms he had wrapped around her waist. Subsequently,
she turned around and lifted her head to glare at him. "Toby, can you stop? We haven't had dinner and yet you're
starting it again! Aren't you hungry?"
"I am hungry." He nodded and admitted to being hungry quite frankly.
In response, Sonia grimaced slightly. "Since you're hungry, then hurry up and eat. We can talk once we've had
dinner."
Toby's eyes instantly sparkled as soon as he heard her words.
He leaned his head forward slightly and placed his forehead against Sonia's. His hoarse voice sounded very
seductive. "Honey, do you mean to say that I can continue this after dinner?"
At that moment, Sonia was perplexed by his question. "When did I say that?"
"You just did." Toby pulled his lips into a smile. "You mentioned that we can continue the talk after dinner. That
means I'm allowed to continue after dinner, right?"
At this point, Sonia grimaced badly and was just about to explain her innocence. However, she could not quite voice
out the words that were on her mind because her earlier statement seemed to imply what Toby had
comprehended. As such, she was at a loss for what to do.
