Chapter 901 Deliberately Nurtured This Way

“It’s not funny at all!” Toby refuted Sonia with a stormy expression.

Sonia’s smile froze on her face. “You… you’re upset?”

She saw how grim he looked, and it was obvious that he was angry.

Toby reached out and cupped Sonia’s face with both of his hands. “I am angry. In fact, I’m furious. Do you have any idea why?”

Sonia blinked in bewilderment. She did not respond since she obviously had no idea why.

Toby sighed. “I’m angry because you made a fool out of Connor right to his face. Did you think about what would’ve happened if you had infuriated him, and he decided to do something to you right there and then? What would happen to you if he did that?”

“I… I know it was careless of me.” Sonia finally figured out why Toby was angry. He was worried that she might have gotten hurt.

She took his hands off her face. “Actually, as soon as I did that, I realized how reckless I had been and regretted it. I was also worried that he might do something to me, but luckily, he had his apprehensions and did not do anything to me.”

“You should be thankful that he had his apprehensions. If he had nothing to be wary of, then you probably wouldn’t be here right now, but with Tim Lancaster.” Toby still had a deep frown on his face.

Sonia grabbed his arm and tried to appease him. “Okay, okay, don’t be angry anymore. I’ve realized my mistake, and I won’t do it again.”

Toby felt helpless after taking a look at Sonia, who was blinking at him with a pitiful expression. He massaged his temples and said, “So long as you don’t do it again.”

“I definitely won’t,” Sonia quickly promised.

Toby flicked her on the forehead. “Did Connor say anything after he changed his tune?”

“He told me to not make a decision so hastily, and that he was giving me two more days to reconsider. He said I might change my mind,” Sonia replied.
