Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1010

That's true. With her suspicion toward Charles dispelled, she shifted her gaze back to the waiter. "Excuse me, but since we didn't pay the bill, could you tell us who paid it? Or did your system go wrong and show that we had paid the bill when we didn't?"

The waiter replied with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Reed. Our system didn't go wrong, and it's true that your bill has been paid. It was paid by Mr. Fuller, your boyfriend."

"Toby?" Sonia and Charles responded in chorus.

Charles even stood up in surprise.

The waiter nodded. "That's right. It was Mr. Fuller who paid the bill. Also, he has a message for you, Mr. Lane."

"For me?" Charles pointed at his own nose.

Puzzled about what Toby wanted to say to Charles, Sonia turned to look at the latter.

"Yes, Mr. Lane. For you." The waiter nodded with a smile.

Charles' lips twitched. "Okay. What kind of message does Toby have for me, then?"

The waiter adjusted his bow tie before replying with a straight face, "Mr. Fuller said the meal you had with Miss Reed today was his treat, so he hoped you wouldn't get too full of yourself and think that you had defeated him by eating out with her alone. He also hoped that you wouldn’t show off in front of him later about how he didn't know you had had dinner with Miss Reed. He said he knew everything, and he warned you not to ask for trouble. That's all." With that, he raised his eyes to look at Charles.

Looking as black as thunder, Charles clutched his fork and spoon tightly while uttering between clenched teeth, "Damn you, Toby Fuller!" Can he read my mind or something? To think that he's even able to figure this out! Alright, I admit that I do feel a little smug about eating out with Sonny alone, and I do think that I'm several notches above Toby. After all, he doesn't know that Sonny and I were eating out together. Moreover, I can even call Toby and brag about this later to anger him on purpose. Alas, before I could do that, Toby saw through my plans and even warned me. This is so... Peeved, he screwed up his face. Is Toby a dog or something? He's so sensitive!

Sonia also didn't expect Toby to be the person who paid for her and Charles' meal. Not only that, but he even left such a message for Charles. She wasn't dumb, so it was impossible for her not to figure out that Toby had left such a message for Charles for the purpose of asserting his claim. After all, since Charles had such feelings for her, there was no way Toby wouldn't mind it. This was why Toby made a special effort to warn Charles to know his place and not fool around after knowing that she had gone out with the latter for dinner.

On one hand, she understood Toby's feelings. On the other hand, though, she felt that he had gone a bit too far. After all, Charles had said that he would let go, so he naturally wouldn't do anything to her. Therefore, it was somewhat disrespectful to Charles for him to warn the former like this.

Sonia massaged the space between her eyebrows as if she had a headache. Well, it can't be helped. Toby is my boyfriend. Now that he's done something wrong, I've got to help cover his *ss, of course. At the thought of this, she put down her hand and smiled at the waiter. "We got it; thanks for telling us about this. If there's nothing else, please go ahead with your work. We'll be leaving in a minute."

"Sure, Miss Reed." The waiter bowed politely. Then, he turned around and left, leaving Sonia and an angry Charles in the private room.
