Chapter 86

Toby was looking at some charts on his tablet when he heard Jean’s words, which made him frown a little. Tina had been glad to see Jean’s attempts to bring Toby and her closer to each other, but her heart sank the moment

she saw Toby’s frown. “Do you not like the idea of me sharing a room with you, Toby?” Tina asked before she bit her lip

He was just about to part his lips to speak when Jean gave him a light hit on the lap. “Why would Toby not like that idea? Alright, it’s all set!”

“Mom!” Toby’s frown deepened. “This isn’t good for Tina. We’re not married to each other yet” Tina’s face turned

 

pale upon hearing his words. He’s still rejecting Madam White even after Madam White comes to a fixed decision. Has Toby ever considered how I feel in this situation?!

Meanwhile, Tyler, who had been calmly munching on an apple the whole time, felt oddly pleased when he saw

 

the color draining out of Tina’s face. “Why does it matter if you’re married? You guys are engaged, and you guys

are going to stay in the same room eventually. You’d just be doing it a little earlier now,” Jean muttered in a

relaxed tone.

Toby turned to look at the woman beside him, who hung her head low. “That would be disrespectful toward Tina”

he uttered.

“What has that got to do with disrespect? Tina is-”

Before Jean could finish her sentence, Tina spoke up. “It’s fine, Madam White,” she said while forcing a smile and

shaking her head. “We can forget it since Toby doesn’t want to do it. There are tons of other rooms in the Fuller

Residence. I can just stay in another one of them.”

“But.” Jean was still rather dissatisfied; she wanted to continue talking about it.

Then, Tyler threw the core of his apple away before he dusted his hands. “You should just forget it since that’s

what Tina wants, Mom. Toby needs to help me with my homework tonight. He wouldn’t have time for Tina

anyway.”
