Chapter 1198 The Teacher and the Student

Then, Toby saw her serious face as she spoke. It was then that he knew that if he did not follow what she said, she would do whatever she said because this was Sonia’s personality at its core.

Despite their current relationship, she was still unwilling to take advantage of him. “Gosh. What should I do with you?” As he shook his head resignedly, he pulled her office chair over to him and sat down. “Is this better?”

Nodding in satisfaction, Sonia said, “Yes.” After she said that, she pulled the less comfortable chair closer and sat down as well. “Toby, don’t just think that I’m being stubborn and refusing to accept your kindness. I know you want to do more things for me and want me to sit more comfortably.

I’m grateful and I accept your kind gesture, but such actions will only make me greedy. In the end, I might even take your kindness for granted and gradually forget that I should repay your kindness and do something for you too. Then, I’ll become someone who only knows how to enjoy your efforts without reciprocating.

A person like that is selfish, and someday when you mistreat me or neglect me for the slightest bit, I won’t be able to accept that and might even throw a fit. So, Toby…”

She looked up at him. “You will only pamper me too much by doing so. I think you don’t want me to become a completely different person from how I am now, right? Because that wouldn’t be me anymore.”

While gazing into her eyes for a while, Toby sighed and relaxed. “I understand. I’ll think more carefully about the consequences when considering doing something for you in the future and make a more well-rounded decision. You’re right. Overindulging someone will change them and turn them into someone they weren’t in the beginning. It’s my fault for not thinking of this.”

“Very good. Alright, let’s start our tutoring session. The earlier we finish this pile, the earlier we can go home. Then, I can make you some soup.” Sonia then brought the stack of documents over and set them in front of Toby.

Meanwhile, the man felt his eyelids twitching. “Soup?”

At that moment, the scene of him drinking soup at the old manor that afternoon reappeared in his mind and his face was full of reluctance.

“Please don’t. I’ve had enough soup for a while.” He then picked up the topmost file while expressing with a tense voice.
