Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again
Chapter 957 Tobyâs Praise From the look of things, Sonia could guess what kind of compliments Toby had said. It mustâve been something extremely cheesy, or he wouldnât have had such a big reaction.
Yes, even Sophia could tell that this man was shy. Having been together with Toby for so long, there was no way Sonia couldnât figure it out. As a guy, he was extremely thick-skinned, and even when he uttered obscenities, she had never seen him make such a look. Hence, she really wanted to know how sappily he had described her to make him, who was usually thick-skinned, being this shy. However, he made it clear that he would not say anything, and even when Sonia stared at him intently, he would not turn around, as if afraid that as soon as he did, he would be captured by her and forced to tell her.
Seeing that the man refused to turn around and face her no matter what, Sonia knew that it was impossible to make him speak. Left with no other choice, she could only look to Sophia helplessly.
Seeing through her troubled thoughts, Sophia smiled and patted her on the shoulder, telling her not to worry. Then, she beckoned to her assistant and said a few words to her in Plerian.
As Sophia talked to her assistant, Sonia did not ignore the man beside her. She could clearly see the slight change in his expression, as if he was nervous. Whatâs he nervous about?
Just as she was wondering, Sophiaâs assistant said, âMiss Reed, Ms. Sophia asked me to translate for you.â
Sophiaâs assistant was a local. Hence, although she mostly stayed abroad, she was still well versed in the local language and could speak fluently.
When Sonia heard that she was going to replace Toby as her translator, Soniaâs eyes lit up and she quickly smiled gratefully. âThatâs great, thank you.â
The assistant shook her head. âNo problem.â
After saying her pleasantries, the assistant began to translate Sophiaâs previous words.
As she listened to the sappy compliments, Sonia was so embarrassed that she felt goosebumps rising all over her body because Tobyâs praise for her was almost a culmination of all the praises in the world. She had no idea that these words and phrases could even be used to describe her. She didnât even know that she was such a wonderful person!
In short, he was talking about a completely different person, and it didnât sound like her at all. Besides, he used so many beautiful adjectives to describe her. Didnât he feel a prick on his conscience as he was saying all of this that time? Either way, she felt flustered.
As Sonia turned to look at Toby and the increasingly reddening tips of his ears, she parted her red lips and asked, âAre... Are you sure youâre not lying to Ms. Sophia? How am I as wonderful as youâve described me? Everything you said is clearly not about me.â
Although she was indeed very happy that he could describe her that way, she still felt incredibly awkward.
âI didnât lie to her!â Toby finally turned his head around, his gaze turning serious as he looked at her.
Beside them, the assistant was translating their conversation to Sophia. However, at that moment, Sonia and Toby only had eyes for each other and didnât care about anyone else.
âHow are you not lying to her? You sure youâre talking about me?â Sonia rolled her eyes, her face turning red.
No, she couldnât think too much about what he told Sophia. Every time she recalled his words, she was so embarrassed that she felt like digging a hole to hide into.
âYes.â Hearing Soniaâs words, Toby nodded without any hesitation.
The corners of Soniaâs lips twitched. âHow is it about me? It doesnât fit me at all.â
âI know, but in my heart, thatâs the way you are. To me, youâre the most wonderful person in the world, and youâre worthy of all the beautiful phrases that have ever existed,â Toby said sincerely as he gazed at her.
Soniaâs face immediately flushed even redder. âYou...â
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Sophia who was opposite them. Sophia looked at her with a smile. âMiss Reed, youâre accusing President Fuller. Even if his description of you doesnât fit you, to him, he thinks that youâre exactly the kind of person he had described. Isnât there a saying that goes âBeauty is in the eye of the beholderâ? No matter what, the person you love will always be the most perfect being to you. Miss Reed, I believe that you think of President Fuller in the same way, right?â
As soon as she said that, Sonia was immediately rendered speechless. She looked at Toby, as if asking him if Sophia was telling the truth, and he nodded, indicating that this was the case. In his heart, she was the perfect existence. Because of this, Sonia became even more abashed. Even if it was true that beauty was in the eye of the beholder, wasnât he a little too much? Still, it was inexplicably sweet of him.
âMiss Reed, do you want to know what else I said to President Fuller?â Sophia asked again with a smile.
Next to her, her assistant translated her words dutifully.
Sonia looked at Toby, then at Sophia, before she nodded profusely, expressing her desire to know. She had been curious since earlier.
Sophia didnât beat around the bush either, and soon told her about the conversation she had just had with Toby. Based on her assistantâs translation, Toby said that Sonia was his orbit, the light of his life. Instantly, Sonia flushed red, and her heart raced. Could he be any cheesier? She glanced in playful disdain at the man next to her, and he coughed softly before turning away again.
Sophia smiled and said, âIâve known President Fuller for some years, and heâs always been cold every time I met him. This is the first time Iâve seen President Fuller being so open with his feelings and expression. Miss Reed, this is all thanks to you.â
âThanks to me?â Sonia was slightly taken aback.
Sophia nodded. âYes. Most of the time, most cold-hearted people are completely oblivious to love before they experience it. But once they find the person they love, theyâll become more and more personable. Thatâs the reason why I said that itâs thanks to you that President Fuller has become so personable now, Miss Reed.â
Sonia played with her hair a little bashfully. âMs. Sophia, youâre praising me too much. I didnât really do anything.â
âYou donât need to. Your existence itself is enough for President Fuller. Heâll naturally change on his own as long as youâre there,â Sophia said with a smile.
Sonia became even more self-conscious and didnât reply. She was afraid that if she continued, she would turn into a legendary figure.
Seeing her embarrassment, Toby pursed his lips and coughed, then looked at Sophia and said, âOkay, enough talking about this. Letâs get down to business. Sophia, whereâs the dress?â
âItâs here.â Sophia immediately lifted the bag in her hand and handed it to Sonia. âMiss Reed, this is the dress that President Fuller asked me to design for you. Please have a look to see if youâre happy with it or not.â
âAll right.â Sonia accepted the bag with both hands. Then, she glanced at Toby after recalling something. âWhereâs your suit?â
Before Toby could answer, Sophia spoke up. âPresident Fullerâs suit has not been completed yet, and thereâs still a little work that needs to be done, so you should try yours on first to see if there is anything that needs to be modified, Miss Reed. After all, dresses are more complicated to modify than menâs suits, so I chose to work on your dress first.â
âI see.â Sonia nodded in realization and said nothing more. After sitting down, she opened the bag and took out the gift box containing the dress from inside.
The gift box wasnât tied with a ribbon, so Sonia easily opened the lid, revealing the fiery red dress inside. The dress was a beautiful vintage Hepburn spaghetti dress with a wide V-neck and a slim-fitting A-line skirt that was decorated with ruffles below, giving off a sense of playful sexiness to the viewer. She liked it at first glance.
