Chapter 468 A Huge Misunderstanding

Sonia averted her gaze, refusing to look into his scary-looking eyes. Her gut told her that she absolutely mustn’t meet his gaze, or she might fall into a bottomless abyss.

Seeing that Sonia looked away, Toby let out a slight sigh before changing the topic. “Right, you called me this morning, didn’t you?”

Hearing him mention this, Sonia hastily nodded. “Yes.”

“Sorry, my phone was turned off this morning,” Toby replied.

Sonia looked at him. “I know. I just wanted to ask what we talked about last night? How did the call go on for more than 300 minutes?”

“Nothing much. You fell asleep.” His clarification was rather short and simple.

However, she didn’t seem to be convinced, frowning at his reply. “What do you mean? Are you saying that after I answered the call, I didn’t say anything to you and went straight to sleep?”

“Yes.” Toby nodded. “When I called you, you answered, murmured something, then stopped responding.”

Only now did Sonia get the picture of the situation. They hadn’t said anything at all over the phone last night, and she had merely slept throughout the phone call. “President Fuller, why didn’t you just hang up? Why did you just let the call go on like that?” Her lips twitched a little as she stated what seemed to be common sense.

Toby smiled, but he didn’t reply. He couldn’t tell her that he did it just to listen to her breathing and imagine that she was sleeping right beside him. Because he knew that if he said such things, she would think that he was crazy.

Seeing how Toby just smiled silently, Sonia was puzzled and couldn’t understand what was on his mind.

However, seeing how Toby behaved, Sonia knew he didn’t want to share. This was why she gave up pursuing the topic. Instead, she simply asked about his reason for calling her.

“Nothing much. I just wanted to ask when exactly you’d be back today. I never thought that you’d be asleep by the time I called.” Toby took a glass of water sitting on the bedside table and took a sip from it.

Sonia’s red lips parted as she was about to say something, but just then, a knock on the door interrupted her, and Tom’s voice sounded from outside. “President Fuller, I got the lunch you asked for.”

“I’ll get the door.” Without waiting for Toby to respond, Sonia stood up almost instantly.
