Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 865

Sonia noticed the change in his expression and became a little embarrassed. After all, it was understandable for Toby to feel aggrieved in this matter.

Not only did he give her presents, like clothes, accessories, flowers, and many more, but he also wished he could provide her with the best of the best. It was especially so during the period of time when they just got back together; he wanted to send her gifts nearly every day.

However, she felt apologetic toward him since she couldn't give him anything of equivalent value in return if she accepted the gifts. Therefore, she felt that his gifts were like a burden on her chest, so instead of receiving the presents graciously, she rejected all of them.

After he noticed how insistent she was on refusing his gifts, Toby restrained himself and did not shower her with gifts as maniacally as before. Sonia even heaved a sigh of relief at his change of behavior.

That was why she really didn't know Grandma scolded him for being a stingy partner. "Sorry, I didn’t know that." She lowered her head apologetically.

When Toby heard that, he replied while ruffling her hair, "It's okay. I wasn't blaming you. I understand why you didn't want to accept my presents, but it's not as serious as you think. We're a couple, and we'll get married sooner or later, which makes us the closest people to each other in this world. So, you can accept whatever I give you without feeling pressured because they're just tokens of my love. Actually, whenever you rejected the gifts, I would always think that I didn't do enough, and that's why you didn't want to accept them."

"That's not it." Sonia shook her head. "I just—"

"I just..." Toby cut her off. "I just couldn't help thinking this way at times, but I know the real reason for your rejection. I just hope that you can loosen yourself a little and accept some of my presents because they all come from my heart. Can you do that?"

He stared at her with his eyes full of anticipation. When Sonia his pleading eyes, she couldn't help but reflect on her own actions. Was it really a mistake to reject all of his gifts?

Her heart wrenched a little at the thought of his disappointed look whenever she rejected his presents or refused his help.

At this thought, she tried to put herself in his shoes. How would she feel when she happily prepared the best gift for her loved one, but he rejected it without even looking?

She would definitely not be happy about it. Her first thought would be, was he giving her the cold shoulder? Was the present not good enough? In any case, she wouldn't be exactly a happy camper after that.

After Sonia gave it a good thought, she looked at Toby. She finally realized that her actions had hurt him and that she had made a mistake.

Finally, she flashed him a smile and nodded. "Fine. From now on, I won't reject everything. Whatever it is from you, I'll love it and consider accepting it. But only if it's not too costly." As she still couldn't afford to return him a gift of equivalent value.

When he heard her decision, he answered with a smile, "Okay."

In fact, what Toby wanted to say was that, based on his background, all the presents that he bought were not expensive in his eyes. After all, he had the money.

However, it was different for Sonia; the presents were indeed costly in her eyes.

In the future, he would need to consider the price before buying anything for her. But everything would be fine after they tied the knot.

After they got married, he could give her anything, and she wouldn't be able to reject him since they would be a family.

She was rejecting the gifts because she felt they were not a married couple and were just partners who could separate at any time, so she couldn't accept them easily.

All these problems could be solved effortlessly when they were married. But speaking of getting married...

Toby's eyes flickered, and he looked at Sonia with a thoughtful gaze. Would she agree to it if he asked her to marry him as soon as possible?

She blinked and asked curiously when she noticed his odd gaze, "What is it?"

However, he only shook his head and answered, "Nothing. I'm just happy."

"About what?" she asked while looking at him.

When he heard that, he smiled. "Happy that you finally came around to accepting my presents and not simply rejecting them."
