Chapter 947 Sonia’s Playacting

Despite looking at Sonia, he was inwardly tense. She treats Mrs. Lane like her own mother, so she might take her words seriously and think that I can actually be a man who will lose self-control over a woman who volunteers to sleep with me. If that really happens, then Mrs. Lane has really made things difficult for me.

How could Sonia not know what Toby was thinking at the moment when she saw the apparent nervous look on his face? Her eyes flickered before she looked at him with feigned sternness without answering him.

Her silence caused his heart to start to sink. “Are you really taking it seriously?”

Sonia watched as the man looked more and more nervous until he almost got all worked up. Then, she wiped the stern look off her face and laughed. “How is that possible? I won’t take it seriously, of course.”

“But you just—”

“I did it on purpose.” Sonia smiled smugly at him. “I did it on purpose to watch your reaction. Look how scared you are. It’s fun.”

Hearing her mischievous laughter, Toby let out a breath of relief. Luckily, she didn’t take it seriously. But what a nerve she’s got, scaring me on purpose! He pursed his lips before tickling her armpit.

Sonia was ticklish, so she recoiled when Toby tickled her. She dodged him while laughing, asking, “What are you doing, Toby?”

“Punishing you, of course. How dare you scare me on purpose?” Toby looked at her solemnly while tickling her armpit again.

Sonia dodged him even further, and her laughter was interspersed with shouts. “I was just kidding, okay? I know you’re not that kind of person, so I didn’t take her words to heart from the very beginning. But the sight of your expressionless face made me want to tease you on purpose. I don’t mean anything else; I just want to know how you’d react when you saw that I took her words seriously.”

“Can this kind of thing be joked about as you wish? Do you know that I have a heart condition?” Toby said with a frown. She really scared me just now. I really thought that after we’d been together for so long, she’d still think that I couldn’t resist the temptation of the outside world like those vulgar men. Turns out that she was just kidding to try to scare me.
