Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1246

Toby knew Sonia was running away from the problem and that she didn't believe his promise. It was discouraging but he wasn't angry. He knew why she would think so. Time was a complex thing and feelings could change, but he would prove to her he was different. He would do everything he could to show her they would be together forever. If she doesn't believe that, I'll prove it to her. I made a promise and I'll keep it.

They stopped talking about that topic and entered the ballroom. Lights showered every inch of the floor and the guests were chatting happily as they drank but the moment the couple came in, everyone stopped talking. Silence swooped down on them as they watched the couple.

Sonia had taken off her jacket and handed it to a crew member. She would take it back once the event was over. Now she was only wearing her gown, and it was a gorgeous gown at that. It was the same brilliant crimson as Toby's necktie. Everyone knew what that meant. This was a matching set of attire and they told everyone their relationship was going strong.

"That's Miss Reed, isn't it? The one who broke up with Mr. Fuller and got back together?"

Not everyone had seen Sonia before as she had spent almost six years at home and seldom went out. Not even her friends could see her, let alone these businesspeople and their kids. Even though she was now part of the business world, Paradigm Co. wasn't big enough to propel her into high society. Most people had only heard of her but now, they finally saw her.

"Yes. I can see why Mr. Fuller wanted to get back with her. She's beautiful. I'd do the same thing.

"So, why did they divorce in the first place anyway? Seems redundant to me."

"Who knows? I heard he used to like the Gray girl, but he fell out of love with her and chose his ex instead. We're nobodies, so it's not like we're privy to his love life."

"True."

"But they're made for each other, though. At least their looks are perfect."

Everyone was engaged in a quiet discussion, but most of them were from the older generation. Toby and Sonia's peers were talking about something more in-depth. The guys were commenting on Sonia's looks, while the girls… They were a bit more envious. They stared at Sonia, jealousy filling their eyes. It was enviable that she managed to make Toby fall for her.

Toby was the greatest man they could ever hope for. The kind of man they could never hope to reach. They wanted to date him, be his wife and the lady of the Fuller house. Alas, they knew Toby wouldn't give them any attention or affection. Once upon a time, they tried confessing to him in hopes he would fall for them, but all failed.
