Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1082

Toby was a smart guy, but his intelligence was always focused on business rather than emotions.

At the very least, he wasn't the type to see through someone else’s fondness for another, let alone propose ideas.

But now he could see through Charles' feelings for Daphne, and he could also analyze what would happen if Sonia pointed it out to him directly.

In the past, Sonia would never believe this.

Hence, she reasoned that something must have happened to him that she was unaware of.

Toby let out a light cough as he noticed Sonia pointing at himself and asking doubtfully. "I recently finished a few books. That's why I've noticed Charles acting strangely when he's with your secretary."

"Books?" Sonia asked, her face filled with doubt. "What types of magical books are those?"

"Books about relationships," Toby muttered, returning his hand from his chin to the steering wheel.

Sonia, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow. "Why are you reading them all of a sudden?"

She couldn't understand his actions at all.

Toby's eyes twinkled. A rare desperate expression appeared on his face.

"When I walked out of the conference room after a meeting a few days ago, I overheard a few female colleagues ranting about how they like romantic guys but that all of their husbands aren't romantic. As a result, they're fed up with their husbands."

Hearing this, something struck Sonia. Her lips pursed while she responded, "So you also regard yourself as someone who isn't romantic and is afraid that I'll get sick of you, just like how they got sick of their husbands? That's why you start reading those books in your attempt to become a romantic, right?

"No," Toby responded calmly, his gaze fixed on the road in front of him.

However, his flushed ears betrayed him.

His voice trembled slightly as well, revealing his guilt in lying.

That made Sonia laugh. "Don't try to hide it; you've already exposed yourself. How did I not realize you were such an insecure person before?"

"Because I lost you once, and I'm afraid of losing you again.”

There were many things in this world that if they happened once, they would happen again and again indefinitely.

Losing Sonia once was sufficient to crumble Toby.

How could he endure losing her again?

Sonia kept her smile and sighed deep down as she observed his solemn yet unconfident demeanor. "Don't be concerned; that will not happen."

While saying, she put her hand on his arm in an attempt to reassure him.

In fact, she had never seen him with such a lack of confidence before today.

And he shouldn't have such insecurities, being from the Fuller Family and accomplishing at the age of 30 what most people wouldn’t be able to accomplish in their lifetimes.

Such an emotion should never have entered his life.

Toby should be a confident and a high-spirited person. Even if he became conceited, no one would regard that as wrong as he indeed had what it took to be that way.

However, a lack of confidence that should not have appeared on him surfaced as a result of his fear of losing her again.

While Sonia felt all warm and fuzzy inside at that, she also felt her heart ache.

She was the one who transformed this confident man, who was in complete control, into someone who felt insecure.
