Chapter 138
Although Toby wasn’t thirsty, he somehow nodded and said, “Yeah, sure.”
Sonia replied with an affirmative hum and proceeded to pour him a glass of water, to which he took over. “Thanks.”
“Not at all.” Sonia waved her hand and kept her head down to drink her water. In the meantime,
Toby didn’t take a single sip of water from his glass, but instead fixed his eyes on her without blinking
After finishing the water, Sonia put down the glass and was about to tell the man that she would be returning to her room just when she heard a growling sound, only to realize it came from Toby’s stomach. Meanwhile, Toby didn’t expect his stomach to growl at that moment as an awkward look appeared on his glacial face.

Sonia curled her lips slightly upward, trying to keep a straight face as she just witnessed one of Toby’s rarest sides.
“Um…” Toby gulped, seemingly wanting to say something.
“What’s the matter?” Sonia looked at him.
“Do you mind making a little something for me to eat?” Toby kept his head down and asked.
Sonia raised her eyebrows in disbelief. “Did you just ask me to make you something to eat?”

“Yeah.” Toby nodded, as he was indeed hungry.
Sonia pursed her lips, finding his plea sarcastic. After all, she had learned to cook because she wanted to have his heart in the last six years. However, he never really showed any interest in her, neither did he ever cast an eye on her. Therefore, she couldn’t help but find it laughable now that
Toby asked her to cook for him.
As Sonia didn’t answer his question, Toby felt overwhelmed by a pang of disappointment, his eyes darkening. However, he hid his feelings and tried to play it cool. “It’s okay. Just forget about
it.”
“I’ll do it.” Sonia looked up and met his gaze.
Toby paused in a trance and met her eyes in surprise. “Do you agree with that?”

Sonia nodded. “Just think of it as a return of favor for shining the way for me. Let’s go to the kitchen.”
Toby smiled and responded with an affirmative hum, whereupon both of them entered the kitchen.
Soon, Sonia opened the refrigerator, only to realize nothing much was left inside besides some
vegetables. Upon a short contemplation, she turned around before she was quickly surprised by Toby, who was standing behind her and looking at the refrigerator with his back bent over. Then, her lips inevitably came into contact with his lips.
After both of them looked at each other in a trance, Toby was the first of the two to snap out of his trance and back away. Then, he stood straight and apologized with a deep voice. “I’m sorry.” After all, he didn’t think she would turn around so suddenly.
At that moment, Sonia was in a dream, in which she found herself caught by a monster. Thus, she
Thinking he had woken her up, Toby took his hand off her. A few moments later, he realized Sonia was, in fact, still asleep when she continued to remain still. She must be murmuring in her dream. As he helplessly rubbed his forehead, he gave up the idea of waking Sonia up. Instead, he decided to carry her in his arms and took her upstairs to her room.
