Chapter 1178 Connor Was Beaten

Rose wanted to knock some sense into Toby’s head so that he could swoop in and completely cheer Sonia up immediately.

When Toby regained his composure after Rose’s reminder, she assumed that he would humor Sonia with some sweet talk. Still, to her pleasant surprise, he immediately embraced Sonia, which exceeded her expectations.

A hug was far more effective than sweet talks.

Indeed, she was now old, so her ideas were somewhat conservative, but it didn’t matter as long as Toby was bold and straightforward.

Rose grinned from ear to ear when she looked at the couple hugging each other.

Mary noticed the delightful smile on Rose’s face. Although she didn’t know why Rose was so happy, she felt relieved and reassured.

On the other hand, Sonia finally came to her senses in Toby’s arms. She raised her arms and nudged Toby, attempting to push him away, but unlike her shove when he kissed her earlier, she pushed him very gently this time.

After all, Rose and Mary were watching them, and she couldn’t push Toby away with all her might. Hence, she patted his back lightly with a flushed face, signaling him to release her.

Frankly speaking, she was quite embarrassed when he decided to shower her with affection with an audience.

However, Toby had no intention of letting go of Sonia, although he sensed the silent implication behind her actions. Instead, he wrapped his arms around her tightly and snuggled her close.

Sonia’s body stiffened. Then, she sighed in resignation, leaned over, and whispered, “Toby, what are you doing? Let me go. Mary and Grandma are watching.”

“No, I don’t want to let you go.” Toby wrapped one arm around her waist and stroked her hair gently with the other hand. “You don’t have to envy me. You have a family too. I’m your family, so my family is yours too. You told Grandma that you wished she could treat you as her own granddaughter. Have you forgotten? So, we are your family, and you can treat her as your grandmother too.”

Sonia suddenly froze when she heard his remark, and her hand suspended mid-motion.
