As soon as Toby heard Rose grinning through her voice, his eyes brightened. “Aren’t you mad at me, Grandma?”

“Why would I be? You don’t always take things seriously, so why should I stop you when you finally do?” she asked with a smile.

“Thank you, Grandma.” He appeared to be relieved.

“There’s no need to thank me, but even if you manage to create an opportunity for Sonia to meet more people, I’m afraid—”

Knowing what his grandmother was going to say, he interrupted, “I gave Mom’s jewelry to her in your name and she accepted it. By then, all she needs to do is wear it during your birthday feast and she should have no problem talking to those big shots.”

After all, Toby knew that the valuable jewelry would help Sonia to create a decent and well-mannered illusion. Even if Paradigm Co. might appear to be unstable, the jewelry could change their impression as they would probably think she was from a decent and established family. For that, they would be willing to interact with her; otherwise, she would struggle to even greet anyone during Rose’s birthday feast. She can never get away with the grim reality.

“Ah, I see.” Rose nodded. “What a meticulous plan you have there! It seems that I have worried too much.”

Toby responded with a faint smile just as something crossed his mind. “By the way, Grandma, Sonia now thinks that you’re the one who gave her the jewelry. She’ll be calling you to thank you later, so please don’t tell her anything I just told you,” he reminded his grandmother in a serious manner.

Rose laughed helplessly. “Do I look like someone who is too dumb to know what should be done? Don’t worry, I know what to do.”

He chuckled, “Thank you, Grandma.”

She responded with an affirmative hum shortly before an incoming call came in when she was about to say something. When she took a look at the caller, she couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. These 2 kids can really read each other’s minds, can’t they? Toby was just telling me that Sonia would call a few seconds ago and here comes the call. “Toby, Sonia is calling now. So, I’m going to hang up first and answer her call,” she replied.
