Chapter 786 Peel a Crab for You

Toby noticed the dejected expression on Sonia’s face and he subsequently placed a prawn onto her plate. “You haven’t had any seafood for quite some time now, so you should enjoy this meal. Have some more. In the future. I’ll accompany you and get seafood whenever you crave it.”

Sonia was very touched to hear his words and she nodded her head with a smile. “Sure! I’ll hold you accountable to that, then. I warn you, though—you’d better not renege on your words because of your busy schedule.”

“I won’t.” Toby shook his head. “Well, the worst that could happen would be that I deal with work while eating seafood with you. I could deal with the paperwork and hold a conference while we eat if you don’t find it annoying.”

“Pfft!” Sonia couldn’t control her laughter as soon as she heard his description.

“What do you mean by holding a conference and dealing with your paperwork while eating seafood with me? Stop pulling my leg.”

Indeed, Sonia found his words quite amusing and she envisioned the situation of him sitting in a conference room with tens to hundreds of people, holding a meeting while sitting on his spot with a platter of seafood in front of him. The whole time, Toby would peel prawns while he spoke to the crowd regarding the content of the meeting.

The scene in her mind was extremely amusing to her and she couldn’t contain her laughter at all. At once, her face flushed red from the excitement she felt.

At that moment, Toby stared at her. “Alright, alright. You’ve laughed long enough. Don’t laugh too long because you might become breathless.”

Sonia nodded her head repeatedly. “Yeah, I know that.” Subsequently, she took a deep breath and gradually calmed down.

Just then, Toby picked up a crab and placed it on his plate. Following that, he slipped some disposable gloves on while mentioning, “How are you feeling? Are you feeling much better now?”

Meanwhile, Sonia lifted her brows. “So did you purposely say that you were going to accompany me for some seafood while holding a conference to cheer me up?”
