Chapter 773 Put Her in Her Place

Sonia even reached out to pinch Toby as she said those words.

Toby raised a brow, and he quickly grabbed her hand as he flashed an exasperated smile. “What kind of person do you take me for? I’m not one of those shallow men out there. Don’t worry, I don’t have that big of a heart; it has enough room for you and only you.”

Upon hearing this, Tom shuddered where he stood behind Toby and had to rub his arms like he caught a cold.

Goodness, is this the same President Fuller who wouldn’t crack a smile back in the day? If Tom hadn’t been standing there and listening to all the conversation, he would have thought that Toby had been swapped with somebody else. Honestly speaking, though, President Fuller really is a changed man. He isn’t like what he used to be. Can love really turn someone into an entirely different person?

At the thought of this, Tom tipped his head to the side, looking puzzled. He had been a bachelor throughout his thirty plus years of life and without a woman to call his own, he couldn’t hope to catch up with the likes of Toby and Sonia.

Sonia, on the other hand, didn’t overreact as Tom had and she only thought that Toby’s line was cringeworthy.

However, as cringeworthy as it sounded, it still made her blush and made her heart swell as it skittered from beat to beat. Sure, it’s cheesy, but I loved it.

She shot Toby a knowing look. “I’d say you have good judgment, then.”

Toby laughed, clearly amused by her reaction.

Meanwhile, Anya frowned when she heard his laugh. She couldn’t understand what could be so funny as to make him laugh twice in a row. More importantly, she didn’t remember him having a sense of humor, much less the ability to laugh.

A dark look came into her eyes as she thought, Looks like he went through a pretty big shift in his personality since I last saw him.
