Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 923

Toby noticed that Grace was studying him carefully and her face was tinged with strange expressions. However, he did not feel the slightest bit offended or unhappy at all.

Moreover, in the afternoon earlier, he purposely asked several of the married secretaries to come to his office when he was at the company to ask them about the possible situations he might face when meeting his parents-in-law for the first time. He also sought their advice on how to avoid making a blunder.

The secretaries had told him that his parents-in-law would usually behave the same way as to how a man's parents treated their future daughter-in-law and they would generally come up with a series of tests to determine whether this person suited their own son or daughter.

Most of the time, the tests commonly put forward by the future in-laws would firstly include judging the man or woman’s appearance.

If their appearance passed the test then they were already halfway through winning the approval of the in-laws.

As such, Toby knew in advance that he would be carefully observed by Grace so he had already been prepared to be scrutinized.

As such, as soon as Grace shot a scrutinizing look at him, he stood calm and composed while allowing her to take a good look at him.

He was quite confident in his appearances and frankly, no other man was as good-looking as he was.

Naturally, Miles' appearance did not count.

Indeed, after Grace had taken a good look at him, although she looked slightly defeated, she didn't mention that there was anything wrong with his appearance, and neither did she voice out that his appearance was not to her liking.

This indicated that he had passed the test in regard to his appearances.

Grace could find no fault with him so he now had one foot in the door.

With that in his mind, he revealed a smile, and at that moment, he noticed Sonia, who was standing behind Grace, furtively gave him a thumbs-up gesture.

As soon as he saw that, the smile on his face widened "Mrs. Lane, are you happy with what you’ve seen? My attire today should be quite presentable, right?"

His underlying meaning was to ask if she was pleased with him.

After all, it was awkward to ask about this directly so he substituted it by referring to his attire.

However, everyone caught on to his words.

Meanwhile, Grace heard his question but she didn't bother to answer and she merely snorted at him and turned to Sonia affectionately, "Sonny, I haven't seen you for quite some time. Why have you lost so much weight? Is it because someone has been mistreating you? If that's true then let me know and I'll definitely do whatever I can to stand up for you!"

As Grace spoke, she shot a pointed look at Toby.

In response, Toby raised his brows.

Fine then, the second round of tests is about to start now.

His secretaries had mentioned to him that after overcoming the appearance test, the in-laws would naturally start to question their own kids to find out hints of whether they were treated well by their partners. Even if they knew that their kids' partners treated their kids extremely well, they would still ask about it.

They would also purposely mention threatening words to their kids' partners to find out the person in question's temperament and disposition.

If their kids' partner had a bad temper with an ugly disposition and was full of self-importance, then they would definitely not be able to tolerate such words and leave in a huff. As parents, they would then have succeeded in weeding out the bad apples for their kids.

However, if their kids' partners had a great temper and a sunny disposition then they would not find such words an issue at all. They would merely find it quite normal. After all, parents were naturally protective of their kids and would not wish for their own kids to suffer.

As long as their kids were together with a great dependable partner then the other party would definitely not be annoyed by such words. They would naturally smile quite confidently and face everything without feeling troubled.

Right now, Toby faced everything with this exact mindset.

He was sincere toward Little Leaf so he had nothing to fear at all.
