This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 820 Buy You a Meal

“That’s not an issue. You guys are boyfriend and girlfriend now. If everything goes smoothly, both of you will even remarry and become husband and wife by then. You’re not really owing him or whatsoever. Isn’t it reasonable for him to do these for you?” Zane shrugged disapprovingly.

However, Sonia shook her head and replied, “Nothing in this world should be taken for granted. True enough, Toby and I are boyfriend and girlfriend now and will eventually become husband and wife, but this doesn’t mean that he has to do everything for me. This concept is wrong per se. Besides, I don’t prefer owing favors to others to begin with because it makes me feel uncomfortable as if there’s a weight on my mind. I can only feel relieved upon returning those favors.”

“Yeah, I can tell that.” Zane looked at Sonia and agreed.

Sonia smiled and continued, “I’ve just said that I’ve already owed Toby too much even before we got back together, so I don’t wish to owe him more. Moreover, now that we’ve reconciled, I’ll feel inferior to him and that we’re not equal in this relationship if I have to trouble him with everything and owe favors to him. In addition, if I’m counting on him to solve all problems for me, I’ll lose my problem-solving skills and the ability to think independently. Eventually, I’ll think of asking for Toby’s help whenever I encounter a difficulty, but have you thought of this…”

“Think of what?” Zane blinked in confusion.

She put the cup of black tea on the table. “At this moment, Toby is very much in love with me. I believe he’ll not turn down any requests from me and he’ll try his best to achieve them. As much as this is great, if our love for each other fades off someday and he stops loving me anymore, but it has already become a habit for me to rely on him, will he continue helping by that time?”

She shook her head and added, “I don’t think so. Sometimes, love will cease to exist after it is depleted. So, I don’t want to treat Toby like a handyman who can handle everything for me. Not only is this unfair to him, it’s also a misjudgment and distrust of my own ability.”

Zane was completely stunned upon hearing Sonia’s statements. He parted his lips but couldn’t say a word to refute her.

In his original conception, a man should pamper his woman and directly help her to solve any problems or difficulties when one arises. He thought it was the right thing to do because it was a man’s responsibility.

Smiling, she said, “Besides these reasons, there’s another one—Toby will definitely not allow me to return him favors even though he has helped me this much. If I insist on returning him favors, he will surely be displeased, but I don’t wish to have arguments with him. So, when I face some difficulties that can’t be solved on my own, I’ll think of you and Charles. At least, we’re friends, so you guys can’t reject it when I want to return you favors because you know I’ll
