"Of course." Toby chuckled. "I know you're trying to attract Madam Lloyd’s attention; that's why you commissioned the earlier dress. However, that dress was destroyed by Anya. Since I took over this task, I won't forget the purpose of your dress. I won't only find the best dress for you and forget about Madam Lloyd. That's why I commissioned the dress from Sophia."
Sonia looked at Toby with eyes full of emotion. "Thank you so much. You kept thinking about me."
As Toby had stopped before a red traffic light, he freed his hand to stroke her hair. "If I don't plan carefully, I will be holding you back. Your hubby is not dumb at all."
"Hey!" Sonia blushed. "Hubby? Since when are you my husband? Stop assuming things."
Toby raised his eyebrows. "Am I really? You said you will remarry me and we can have a child. I'm just saying that earlier. I'm not wrong."
Sonia couldn't refute it.
Indeed. Assuming things are going well, we will get married again.
He isn't wrong; he's just early.
Fine, I'll just let him be.
"Alright, the light's green now. Go." Sonia peevishly glanced at the man and changed the topic.
Toby chuckled and stepped on the pedal.
On the way, Sonia suddenly frowned and looked worried.
Although Toby was driving carefully, he would still pay attention to her from time to time using the corner of his sight.
Seeing her worried expression, he asked with concern, "Any more troubles?"
"I have a feeling that I forgot something," Sonia said with uncertainty while biting her lip.
Toby turned around and glanced. "Forgot something?"
"Yeah." Sonia nodded. "I think I've overlooked something, especially since 1 left Sophia's shop. However, I can't remember what I had forgotten.”
"Then don't think of it anymore. If you feel that way after you leave Sophia's store, it means you have forgotten something in that store. However, the only thing we did in the store was to get the dress. We have nothing to do with the store after we receive the dress so even if you do forget something, it is not important. Don't worry about it," Toby comforted while looking at the road ahead.
Sonia thought it made sense, so she didn't say any more.
Soon, they arrived at the most famous restaurant specializing Norfolkian cuisine in Seafield.
After Toby parked his car, he took Sonia's hand and the duo then went in.
The restaurant was vast as it had two floors. The first floor was an open hall and the second floor housed private rooms.
It was apparent Toby wouldn't choose an open hall. After entering, he quickly asked for a room as he didn't want to enjoy a meal with others.
He just wanted to enjoy the meal with Sonia without being disturbed.
Sonia thought the same. The hall was crowded and chaotic, and the private room was quiet compared to the hall.
Hence, she was happy with Toby's arrangement.
"This way, please." The waiter then urged them to follow her.
Without saying anything, Toby took Sonia's hand and followed the waiter.
When the three reached the second floor, the waiter opened the door to the best private room for Toby and Sonia.
As the couple followed the waiter into the room, the door of a room on the opposite side suddenly opened. Then, Rina came out with an uncomfortable expression, just in time to see Sonia and Toby's silhouettes.
Rina opened her eyes wide immediately and was stunned.
Is that President Fuller and Miss Reed?
