Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 788

"Yup." Sonia nodded her head. She felt quite dizzy and weak due to her sleeping for such a long period during the daytime, so she couldn't even walk in a straight line and seemed to be quite dazed.

As soon as Toby saw that, he couldn't help frowning and he instantly moved forward to grab her around the shoulders. Subsequently, he took her into his arms and allowed her to lean on him. Then, he lowered his head to look at her as he asked anxiously, "Are you feeling unwell?” "No." Sonia lifted her head to smile at him and responded, "I slept for too long so I'm feeling dizzy, that's all. I'll be fine after a quick rest."

Despite her reassurance, Toby remained quite worried and he lifted his hand to place it on her forehead to make sure that her temperature was fine. He finally trusted her words after confirming that she didn't have a fever.

"I told you to get up and take a walk in the afternoon, but you insisted on lying down despite my objections." As he spoke, Toby flicked her on the forehead.

Meanwhile, Sonia pressed a hand on her forehead and smiled. "Alright, alright. It's my fault. I was just too satisfied with our seafood meal earlier and I ended up quite sleepy after that. I didn’t feel like moving at all. I won't do that again."

"Of course not!" At that moment, Toby snorted. "Next time, I'll make sure to keep an eye on you. Alright, let's go over to the couch so you can take a rest. We’ll have dinner after that."

Sonia nodded in response. "Sure."

And so, Toby slowly escorted her to the couch to take a seat before he poured her a glass of water.

Sonia took a sip of warm water and as soon as the water flowed into her stomach, she felt a warm sensation instantly. Shortly after that, the warm feeling coursed through her whole body and she immediately felt much more comfortable than before.

"By the way, what were you doing squatting over there earlier?" Sonia pointed toward the washing machine while asking.

Suddenly, there was an awkward look that flashed across Toby’s eyes but he responded calmly, "I was doing the washing."

However, she couldn't quite comprehend the situation, so she added, "The machine can do the washing, but why did you squat over there?"

Just then, Toby realized that he had to give her a plausible explanation; otherwise, she would definitely persist in interrogating him. As such, he released a slight cough before directly coming up with an answer. "I searched on the internet and found out that the washing machine spins when it's washing the clothes, but I waited there for quite some time and it didn't spin at all. Is the machine broken?"

In response, Sonia grimaced. "Are you sure that it's broken? Could it be that you don't know how to operate it?"

Instantly, Toby turned silent.

At that moment, Sonia kept her silence too.

After quite some time, she finally covered her lips and smiled. "It looks like you had trouble operating it."

There was a flash of awkwardness across Toby's face and in the end, he had no choice but to admit it. "Hmm... Well, I've never used a machine like this before." "I understand." Sonia patted him on the shoulder and she didn't mock him at all.

After all, his clothes were laundered by the servants and some of the more expensive ones were dealt with by the designers personally. Other than that, the rest of it went into the bin, so Toby didn't have the chance to use something like a washing machine. As such, it was normal for him to have difficulty operating a washing machine.

"I'm sorry. I feel quite useless sometimes." Toby rubbed the spot in between his brows. I'm useless indeed. I don't even know such basic life skills.

Sonia stood up with a smile. "You're not useless. On the contrary, you're the most useful person. If you're useless, how did you manage to amass your fortune? The wealthier you are, then obviously there would be plenty of people sorting this out for you. You don't even need to lift a finger. This is the life everyone yearns for. How can you still find yourself useless? Besides, other than being great at earning money, you're able to cook too. Furthermore, you learned how to peel a crab for me. There's no other man who has as many skills as you do. You're great at your career out there and you can also handle the house chores at home. You're awesome!"
