Chapter 840 Toby’s Disdain

Sonia patted Toby’s thigh as a hint that he could stop waiting on her.

Toby set his cutlery down before getting up and saying, “I’ll go wash my hands.”

“Alright.” Sonia nodded.

Once Toby walked away, Sonia looked at the personal assistant in front of her. “You can just leave it here. Thank you.”

“Not at all, Miss Reed. Shall I head back to work now?” The personal assistant pointed toward the door.

“Go ahead,” Sonia acknowledged.

The personal assistant nodded and left.

Sonia then got up and started rearranging the table in order to accommodate the new dishes. Just as soon as she finished, Toby came back from the washroom.

Sonia waved him over. “Come and eat.”

Toby’s lips curved into a smile. “Coming.”

He sped up his steps and soon sat down beside her.

Sonia stuffed a new set of cutlery into his hands. “Hurry up and eat. The food might not taste as nice as what you’re used to eating, but you’ll have to make do. It’s not good to go on an empty stomach for too long.”

“I know,” Toby chuckled.

“Okay then, so let’s eat.” Sonia gave him a smile and resumed eating as well. She had not eaten her fill yet either.
