Chapter 967
It's fine, though. It wasn't as if he couldn't fight for what he wanted now that he didn't have his reward.
He could always think of a way to work around things when night fell.
A determined glint flashed across Toby's eyes as he came to that resolution. He then sat in front of the cushioned stool while he waited for the woman in the dressing room to come out.
A few minutes had passed before the door opened with a click from the inside.
Sonia then stepped out wearing the clothes she had come here in, and she was holding the red dress in her hand.
She was happy to see him waiting for her outside, but she still arrogantly let out a harrumph as she walked past him in her heels while pretending to not have seen him.
Seeing this,Toby raised his eyebrows and stood up to pull her by her hand. "What is this? You are not going to tell me that we are leaving?" he asked in a low voice.
As though she had just noticed him, she immediately put on a surprised face and gasped, "You are still here? I thought you went to the seating area!"
Her act frustrated him to the point of laughing out loud.
How was it that he never knew she had such a frustrating side?
However, Toby had to admit that he thought it was cute.
He lightly pinched her hand and sighed. "Alright, alright. Let's stop messing around. We'll settle our bill with Sophia and head out for a meal."
Sonia hummed with her lips pressed together while she nodded.
He would always bring the lightheartedness back to normal when there was playful bickering between them anyway. She wouldn't go against him without reading the mood first.
After they had 'made up', the duo walked hand-in-hand to the seating area, where Sophia and her assistant had been waiting for them all this time. As soon as the women saw the couple, they quickly stood up to greet them.
Toby only nodded in response, but Sonia replied with a smile and asked Sophia, "Are you done with what you were out to do, Ms. Sophia?"
Hearing that made Sophia smile. "Thanks for asking, darling. It is done." She nodded.
"That is great, then." As Sonia replied, she could feel a blazing gaze on her. She hesitantly looked over, only to see that it was Sophia's assistant who had her hands together as she looked at Sonia with a smile on her face.
Sonia couldn't exactly describe what kind of smile the woman had on. It was way more flattering than the motherly smile the assistant had on before, even to the point where it looked slightly perverted.
The assistant looked extremely unnatural with her 'perverted' smile so wide that it almost reached her ears as she stared at Sonia and Toby.
Sonia didn't know why the assistant was looking at them that way, but she was weirded out by it. It gave her an unspeakable feeling that she had been seen through.
Thinking of this, Sonia forced a smile as she questioned the assistant, "Uh... Is there something on my lover's or my face? Why are you looking at us like that?"
As soon as Toby heard Sonia's words, he squinted and looked at the assistant as well.
He had actually noticed the gaze earlier, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.
There were too many people who would both openly and secretly stare at him everyday anyway. There was no way he could look at every single one of the onlookers.
More importantly, the assistant was a woman. He would always make it a point to not look at other women.
However, according to Sonia, the assistant not only looked at him, she was also staring at Sonia. He couldn't help but raise his guard after hearing something like this.
The assistant hadn't thought that Sonia would directly call her out for her staring, which was why when Sonia did, the assistant's reverie was immediately broken as her face paled, and she panickedly looked to Sophia for help.
She was a mere assistant who liked looking at the gossip column on the Internet, and occasionally paired couples together.
It was no wonder she would get so excited and agitated as she finally had a rare chance of seeing the couple she had previously paired up together. Not only that, she even overheard them going at it live in the dressing room.
That was why she couldn't help herself from gawking at them when the protagonists had reappeared in front of her.
She didn't think she would get caught, though.
Now that she had been busted, she couldn't come up with a good enough explanation as to why she was looking at them that way. She had a feeling they would get angry if they were to hear that she was only looking at them because she had heard them having fun in the dressing room.
