This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 570

Chapter 570 Sonia’s Crush

“Call it the hangover soup,” Toby answered.

Sonia knitted her eyebrows. “The hangover soup? Wait a second. Why is it in such a strange color? And, why does it smell funky?”

Toby set his eyes on the bowl of soup in silence. “Well, it surely doesn’t have a mouth-watering appearance and a pleasant smell, but what matters is that it works. So, just drink it.”

In fact, he had learned how to prepare the hangover soup the night before through an online tutorial. Immediately after he carried her to the bed, he detected the smell of alcohol wafting from her, although it wasn’t strong. Thus, he quickly understood why she was able to fall asleep on the floor before he headed downstairs to the kitchen to study how to make the hangover soup.

Nonetheless, the soup that he had prepared somehow didn’t look similar to the one he watched on the tutorial. Even so, he tested the effectiveness of the soup on himself by drinking it after making himself drunk. When he woke up the next morning without a terrible hangover, he was certain that the soup he made was indeed effective.

Deep down in his heart, Toby was ready to proudly tell Sonia that he was the one who made the soup right after she drank it in an attempt to impress her. Now that he saw the disgusted look on her face, he reluctantly decided to change his mind. It was because of that he faked a cough and explained, “I don’t know. Maybe it’s a new flavor that some guy in the hotel invented.”

“A new flavor?” Sonia’s lips curled upward. “Which hotel is this guy from? He really has the guts to prepare some hangover soup that looks like poison. Ew! I doubt he even managed to make any sale from it, except those who are dumb enough to buy one from him.”

I’m dumb?! He fixed his gaze on Sonia with annoyance while she was still unaware of his irritation. On the other hand, after remaining silent for the entire time, it was Nancy who managed to see through Toby’s unhappiness and pulled on Sonia’s sleeve.

“What’s wrong?” Sonia turned and looked at Nancy.

Nancy didn’t say a single word, but she merely jutted her chin at Toby.

Then, Sonia turned and saw his expression as well as the hangover soup shortly before she instantly understood the awkward position that she had just landed herself in. Thus, she smiled in embarrassment and apologized, “I’m sorry. I didn’t really mean it. I just forgot that you were the one who bought the soup.”

She wasn’t lying because she had indeed forgotten that it was Toby who bought the hangover soup for her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have called those who bought the hangover soup dumb and unknowingly insulted him.

A helpless Toby sighed when he saw Sonia’s embarrassment before he affectionately noted, “That’s enough. Aren’t you dizzy now? Hurry up and drink it.”

“Okay. I will.” She smiled, thinking that even though the hangover soup didn’t seem to be mouth-watering in appearance, she should appreciate his kind intention. Thus, she told herself that she shouldn’t disappoint him when he was merely trying to show his care for her.

At the thought of that, Sonia took a deep breath and closed her eyes while bringing the bowl closer to her mouth as she guzzled the liquid down her throat.

When Sonia was guzzling the soup, Toby had already inserted his hand into his pocket and rummaged for a toffee. Then, he held it in his palm and maintained his gaze on her. The moment she finished the soup, she noticed a candy in front of her before she managed to put the bowl down. She was surprised and shifted her eyes to the person who gave her the toffee.

The man’s eyes brightened up at her response. “Well, the hangover soup surely didn’t taste well, so chew this toffee. It should help to remove the unpleasant taste.”

Since Toby was the one who prepared the soup, he knew how unpleasant the taste was, which was why he had prepared the toffee beforehand.

In light of his thoughtfulness, Sonia was briefly stunned before she felt warmth in her heart. Soon, she gave him a smile as she took the toffee in front of her. “Thank you.”

Toby also reacted with a smile. “Don’t mention it. Give me the bowl.”
