Chapter 471 Zane’s Good News

“No.” Sonia shook her head lightly. “Do you think I’d get picked on so easily? The only reason Rina got me previously was because of luck, as I wasn’t prepared. Now that I’m aware, there’s no way that she can pull another dirty trick on me anymore.”

Upon knowing that Rina didn’t get physical with Sonia, Toby felt relieved. “That’s good to know.”

“President Fuller, did you contact me just to ask me about this?” Sonia blinked before asking, while Toby nodded. “I was worried that you might get taken advantage of.”

Somehow, Sonia felt happy about it as the corner of her red lips lifted unconsciously while her tone softened. “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”

“Yeah,” Toby replied, after which was followed by silence, as none of them spoke.

Sonia realized it had been extremely awkward for the two of them ever since they fell from a cliff. She didn’t know how to put the present situation in words. Currently, she wasn’t as cold toward Toby as she was in the past, which changed the way they communicated. Perhaps this is why everything seems odd. Like, right now, I don’t know how to continue this conversation with him. What should I say? I can’t keep quiet like this forever.

In the past, Sonia would have already hung up without even saying anything, and she wouldn’t hesitate when throwing offensive comments at him, but it was different now. Sonia couldn’t do so any longer, seeing as he saved her and she owed it to him. She at least needed to say goodbye before hanging up.

 

At the thought of that, Sonia took a deep breath, tightened her grip on her phone, and said to the man, “President Fuller, I’m reaching soon, so I’ll hang up now.”

She didn’t know what to say to Toby, but she knew she couldn’t keep quiet forever, and the best way to resolve their awkwardness was to say goodbye and hang up.

 

Knowing that, Toby pursed his lips a little before he answered with a hoarse voice, “Alright.”
