Chapter 959 Ruby Necklace
However, seeing as how happy Sophia was, Sophia chose to keep quiet. Fine, I’ll give Toby the credit this time, she thought.
“Oh right, my dear, since you’re so gorgeous, we can’t just keep it to ourselves. The person who truly appreciates your beauty is still waiting outside. Come now, let’s go over there and show you off to President Fuller.” Saying that, Sophia excitedly dragged Sonia over to Toby.
Toby, who was looking down at his phone, locked his phone upon hearing the footsteps. However, the moment he saw that person in red, he felt time stood still with his surroundings blurred. At this moment, only one person was in his vision.
In Toby’s eyes, everything had vanished around him, leaving only the person in red before him. At this moment, here and now, his eyes were only on that person to the extent that he could no longer perceive the surrounding noises, as he could only hear one particular sound. That sound came from that person with beautiful long hair as she lightly jogged over to him in her crystal high heels with a Duchenne smile on her face.
It was at this very moment that Toby was enlightened to what was the most beautiful scenery in the entire world. The most beautiful scenery in the world was neither the product of nature nor was it an incredible man-made creation, but it was the very image of one’s most beloved running toward one with a smile on their face.
Toby threw his phone to the side before he stood up and stepped away from the sofa with his arms opened wide, and went to embrace the incoming woman.
Sonia, on the other hand, froze and was unable to react, as she had only intended to stop right in front of Toby to ask him how she looked. In the end, he gave no opening to her, as before she even reached Toby, Toby himself came to her and had her in his embrace instantly.
It was so unexpected that even Sophia, who was beside Sonia, could only stare dumbfoundedly at the couple locked in an embrace. Right now, only the assistant on the side was full of excitement, as she held her breath while wearing a satisfied smile, albeit with some feelings of regret. Her regret stemmed from the fact that she hadn’t the courage to take her phone out to get a picture of this embrace to share with her fellow shippers.
Although the assistant was a long-time shipper of the two, it was not easy for her to finally savor the sight of the ones she had shipped being all lovey-dovey, yet she could not share such a beautiful scene with her fellow shippers. Ah, who could understand this pain of mine, she thought.
Minutes passed before Sonia gently pushed Toby away. Tilting her head to look at Toby, she was about to ask him what was wrong with him, and about the sudden embrace.
However, Toby was the first to speak up. “Gorgeous!”
Sonia immediately blushed while her heart started palpitating. Prior to this, Sonia had only blushed at Sophia and the others’ compliments without having her heart beating fast. Yet, her heart palpitated upon Toby’s compliment. Truly, this was the difference between receiving a compliment from a friend and a lover. A lover’s compliment, as compared to a friend’s, truly had the ability to influence the receiver’s mood.
“Do I really look good?” Sonia spread her arms out slightly while looking at the man before her.
The man nodded before he grabbed one of her arms and dragged her away.
“What are you doing?” she asked in confusion, but still obediently followed his pace.
Toby remained silent and only stopped right in front of a mirror. The mirror in front of them was a floor-to-ceiling mirror that reflected the entire body of the viewer from head to toe.
Looking at the reflections in the mirror, Sonia turned her head toward him with slight confusion. “Why did you bring me here?”
Toby gently held her chin and turned her head back to the mirror. “Look, look just how beautiful you are in that mirror.”
With a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, Sonia asked, “So, you brought me all the way here just to let me look at the mirror?”
“Yes.” Toby raised his head while admitting the reason for bringing her here. “I only wished to show you just how beautiful you are, and how fitting the dress looks on you.” His lips were almost touching her ear when he said this.
