Chapter 1170 The Nourishing Soup

“Is that so?” Toby studied Rose’s expression intensely for a while. He had a feeling that she wasn’t telling him the whole story, and was hiding the truth from him.

However, he wouldn’t force her to speak if she wasn’t feeling about it, as long as his stepmother wasn’t coming over to the old manor for a matter regarding him and Sonia.

“By the way, Sonny.” Recalling something all of a sudden, Rose turned her head and looked at Sonia. Sonia, who was enjoying the tea, immediately raised her head and asked, “What is it, Grandma?”

Her heart began to hammer inside her chest. No way! Please tell me that I’m imagining things. I thought I’m safe! Should I watch out for the incoming tease?

As Sonia waited anxiously for Rose’s words, the elderly woman continued, “I suppose you and Toby have seen Jean on her way out of the manor. Did she create any difficulty for you?”

Listening to Rose asking such a question instead of what she had in her mind, Sonia let out a sigh and smiled in relief. “Don’t worry, Grandma. She did nothing. Besides, Toby even stood in front of me to protect me in case she would cause trouble. However, she didn’t try anything this time. Instead, she ignored me and talked to him for a moment before she left hastily.”

“I see. That’s good.” Rose nodded as she was relieved to hear such an answer. It seems like my idiotic daughter-in-law finally listened to my advice this time. Patting Toby’s shoulder, Sonia added, “Maybe she decided to back off after she saw his bravery to defend me.”

Rose cast her a relieved smile. “He’s your significant other, so he has the responsibility and obligation to keep you safe. If he can’t even protect you, he has no right to be with you. Even if you’re reluctant to break up with him, I’ll force you, or else he’ll become a burden to you.”

Toby sighed as the tingling pain in his temples aggravated. “Grandma, I’m your grandson, after all. Am I really that incompetent in your eyes?”

“It’s just an example.” She cast him an expressionless look. He sighed in defeat and no longer protested.

Sonia seldom saw Toby in such a discouraging situation, and it caused her to giggle out at his embarrassment. Even though she covered her mouth, her muffled laughter could still be heard.

Seeing her experiencing a joyful moment, Toby’s expression softened and he showed a hint of happiness as he indulged her at the moment.
