Just as Sonia could no longer restrain herself and wanted to argue with Asher about what he meant, Toby gave her shoulder a gentle squeeze, signaling her to hold her horses. She looked up at Toby, who happened to be looking at her as well. Seeing her gaze, he merely gave her a reassuring look without saying a word, signaling her to leave the matter to him.

honestly think that the clichés in novels and soap operas where the scions of distinguished families take a fancy to a good-for-nothing Cinderella will really happen? Ha! That’s totally unrealistic, okay? Scions of distinguished families have to receive selective education since they’re little.
