Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 833 Sendoff

They came to the porch, and Toby bent over to change his shoes. Sonia opened the door, and a gust of cold breeze

smacked her in the face. She shivered from the chill that ran through her body.

Toby noticed that, and he frowned. He then took his scarf off and wrapped it around her shoulder. “I should have

asked you to put on another layer. Alright, that’s enough. You should go back to the bedroom now.”

“It’s alright.” She shook her head and held the scarf on her shoulders. She was refusing to leave. “It won’t take

long, and nothing will happen. I’ve never sent you off to work before. This seems fun, and I want to try it. Don’t tell

me to go back to the room.”

He noticed the light in her eyes, and he couldn’t bring himself to ask her to go back to her room. He patted her

head lovingly and relented. “Fine, you can send me off if you want to, but just to the door, alright? You don’t have to

send me off to the lift.”

“Alright.” Sonia nodded. She knew he wouldn’t let her even if she wanted to send him all the way to the elevator.

The weather outside would only get colder, and he wouldn’t let her suffer that. Letting her send him to the door was

already the limit, and she wouldn’t want to challenge that.

Toby stopped patting her head and pulled her into his embrace, happy that she listened to him. He put his chin on

her shoulder and said gently, “I’m going now. See you tonight.”

“See you tonight, and drive safely.” She raised her hand and hugged him back, and she patted his back.

Toby chuckled. “I will. It’s cold outside, so go back in.” He let her go.

“Yeah, sure. You should go now. I’ll go back in once I see you off.”

So she won’t go back in until I leave? Toby had no choice but to leave, but right after he took one step, he stopped

and turned around. Then he gave her a hug and kissed her.

Sonia was surprised at first, but she wrapped her arms around his neck and responded to his kiss in a moment.

Toby knew when to stop. He had work to do, and she was feeling cold, so he only kissed her for a minute before he

let her go. He looked at her crimson lips and wiped the saliva off the corner of her lips, and he smiled. “I’m going

now.”

“Okay.” Sonia nodded, her face red, and she was a little out of breath.

Toby let her go and left the house. This time, he didn’t stop, nor did he turn around to give her a hug or a kiss. All he

did was go ahead.

Sonia stood at the door and saw him off. Toby came to the lift and turned to wave her goodbye. She waved him

goodbye as well, and after he went into the lift, she put her hand down and stopped smiling. Then she closed the

door and went back to the bedroom. It was cold outside, but the room was adequately warm.

Sonia took her slippers off and went into the bed. It was still warm, and the moment she went back to bed, she felt

herself surrounded by warm air, and she stopped shivering from the cold. “Nice.” She lay back down and stretched

her arms. Sonia closed her eyes and tried to sleep, since the sun wasn’t fully up yet.

However, her sleepiness was all gone after she said goodbye earlier, and she couldn’t sleep. Sonia opened her eyes

and stared at the ceiling. She pushed the blanket down to her belly and heaved a sigh. “I can’t sleep.”

Toby’s right. He said I won’t be able to sleep once I send him off, and now I can’t sleep. She flailed her legs and

messed the blanket up even more before she calmed down. She then turned to the side and touched the spot

where Toby slept in. There was still some warmth there, but it felt a lot cooler than her side of the bed. Even so, she

felt happy to feel that, for it was as if she could feel him by her side.

It was funny though. It hadn’t been long since they got back together, but she was already starting to find his short

absences unbearable. Even though they would meet every night, she still felt empty during the day. She wanted

him to be by her side at all times. He had just left, but she was already missing him. Oh, why is love so torturous?

She thumped his pillow in frustration, then she fell silent and spaced out. That spacing-out session lasted for more

than an hour, and by then, the sun was already fully up. Sonia heard her phone’s alarm ringing, and she snoozed it

before she got up. She washed herself up and went to the porch to see if breakfast had arrived. Lo and behold,

when she opened the door, room service was already standing outside, and it was still the same waiter who served

them the last time.

Toby must have known that she couldn’t sleep after she sent him off and asked the hotel to send some room

service after he left. Sonia took the breakfast from him and smiled. He knows me best. “Thank you.” She smiled at

the waiter and closed the door before she came back in.

After she put the breakfast on the table, she took a photo of it with her phone and sent it to Toby. ‘Breakfast is here.

Do your best at work today.’ She then sent a cute panda emoji to him. The sight of that emoji reminded her of the

photo where Toby saddled her bag. He was in black attire in the photo, and her bag was beige. The colors matched

that of a panda’s, and she chuckled at the thought of that. Sonia locked her phone and put it on the table before

she went to have breakfast.

Toby was probably busy and wouldn’t text her back, so she didn’t wait for his reply. He’ll text me back after he’s

done with work. But the phone rang not long after she put it down, much to her surprise. She paused for a moment

and stared at her phone.

Whoa. I thought he was working. He’s calling me now? She put her spoon down and quickly picked her phone up,

but when she saw who the caller was, her smile faded. It was Tim, not Toby. Why is he calling me so early in the

morning? She took the call curiously. “Hello, Dr. Lancaster.”

“I hope I’m not disturbing you.” He was sitting behind his desk, leaning into his chair. His phone was held in one

hand, and a scalpel in the other.

Sonia shook her head. “No. I’m not working just yet, so you aren’t disturbing me.”

“Good.” Tim nodded.

She tilted her head and held her phone between her head and shoulder. “Why did you call me?”

“Nothing big, really. I just want to know if you have found the genes of Jessica’s child’s father. You did, right?” Tim

asked.

“Yes,” Sonia said. “How did you know? I don’t remember telling you that.” She was going to tell him after Zane

came back with the genes so Tim could help her with its cryopreservation, but she never expected him to find out

before she told him.
