This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 957 Toby’s Praise

From the look of things, Sonia could guess what kind of compliments Toby had said. It must’ve been something

extremely cheesy, or he wouldn’t have had such a big reaction.

Yes, even Sophia could tell that this man was shy. Having been together with Toby for so long, there was no way

Sonia couldn’t figure it out. As a guy, he was extremely thick-skinned, and even when he uttered obscenities, she

had never seen him make such a look. Hence, she really wanted to know how sappily he had described her to make

him, who was usually thick-skinned, being this shy. However, he made it clear that he would not say anything, and

even when Sonia stared at him intently, he would not turn around, as if afraid that as soon as he did, he would be

captured by her and forced to tell her.

Seeing that the man refused to turn around and face her no matter what, Sonia knew that it was impossible to

make him speak. Left with no other choice, she could only look to Sophia helplessly.

Seeing through her troubled thoughts, Sophia smiled and patted her on the shoulder, telling her not to worry. Then,

she beckoned to her assistant and said a few words to her in Plerian.

As Sophia talked to her assistant, Sonia did not ignore the man beside her. She could clearly see the slight change

in his expression, as if he was nervous. What’s he nervous about?

Just as she was wondering, Sophia’s assistant said, “Miss Reed, Ms. Sophia asked me to translate for you.”

Sophia’s assistant was a local. Hence, although she mostly stayed abroad, she was still well versed in the local

language and could speak fluently.

When Sonia heard that she was going to replace Toby as her translator, Sonia’s eyes lit up and she quickly smiled

gratefully. “That’s great, thank you.”

The assistant shook her head. “No problem.”

After saying her pleasantries, the assistant began to translate Sophia’s previous words.

As she listened to the sappy compliments, Sonia was so embarrassed that she felt goosebumps rising all over her

body because Toby’s praise for her was almost a culmination of all the praises in the world. She had no idea that

these words and phrases could even be used to describe her. She didn’t even know that she was such a wonderful

person!

In short, he was talking about a completely different person, and it didn’t sound like her at all. Besides, he used so

many beautiful adjectives to describe her. Didn’t he feel a prick on his conscience as he was saying all of this that

time? Either way, she felt flustered.

As Sonia turned to look at Toby and the increasingly reddening tips of his ears, she parted her red lips and asked,

“Are… Are you sure you’re not lying to Ms. Sophia? How am I as wonderful as you’ve described me? Everything you

said is clearly not about me.”

Although she was indeed very happy that he could describe her that way, she still felt incredibly awkward.

“I didn’t lie to her!” Toby finally turned his head around, his gaze turning serious as he looked at her.

Beside them, the assistant was translating their conversation to Sophia. However, at that moment, Sonia and Toby

only had eyes for each other and didn’t care about anyone else.

“How are you not lying to her? You sure you’re talking about me?” Sonia rolled her eyes, her face turning red.

No, she couldn’t think too much about what he told Sophia. Every time she recalled his words, she was so

embarrassed that she felt like digging a hole to hide into.

“Yes.” Hearing Sonia’s words, Toby nodded without any hesitation.

The corners of Sonia’s lips twitched. “How is it about me? It doesn’t fit me at all.”

“I know, but in my heart, that’s the way you are. To me, you’re the most wonderful person in the world, and you’re

worthy of all the beautiful phrases that have ever existed,” Toby said sincerely as he gazed at her.

Sonia’s face immediately flushed even redder. “You…”

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Sophia who was opposite them. Sophia looked at her with a smile.

“Miss Reed, you’re accusing President Fuller. Even if his description of you doesn’t fit you, to him, he thinks that

you’re exactly the kind of person he had described. Isn’t there a saying that goes ‘Beauty is in the eye of the

beholder’? No matter what, the person you love will always be the most perfect being to you. Miss Reed, I believe

that you think of President Fuller in the same way, right?”

As soon as she said that, Sonia was immediately rendered speechless. She looked at Toby, as if asking him if Sophia

was telling the truth, and he nodded, indicating that this was the case. In his heart, she was the perfect existence.

Because of this, Sonia became even more abashed. Even if it was true that beauty was in the eye of the beholder,

wasn’t he a little too much? Still, it was inexplicably sweet of him.

“Miss Reed, do you want to know what else I said to President Fuller?” Sophia asked again with a smile.

Next to her, her assistant translated her words dutifully.

Sonia looked at Toby, then at Sophia, before she nodded profusely, expressing her desire to know. She had been

curious since earlier.

Sophia didn’t beat around the bush either, and soon told her about the conversation she had just had with Toby.

Based on her assistant’s translation, Toby said that Sonia was his orbit, the light of his life. Instantly, Sonia flushed

red, and her heart raced. Could he be any cheesier? She glanced in playful disdain at the man next to her, and he

coughed softly before turning away again.

Sophia smiled and said, “I’ve known President Fuller for some years, and he’s always been cold every time I met

him. This is the first time I’ve seen President Fuller being so open with his feelings and expression. Miss Reed, this is

all thanks to you.”

“Thanks to me?” Sonia was slightly taken aback.

Sophia nodded. “Yes. Most of the time, most cold-hearted people are completely oblivious to love before they

experience it. But once they find the person they love, they’ll become more and more personable. That’s the

reason why I said that it’s thanks to you that President Fuller has become so personable now, Miss Reed.”

Sonia played with her hair a little bashfully. “Ms. Sophia, you’re praising me too much. I didn’t really do anything.”

“You don’t need to. Your existence itself is enough for President Fuller. He’ll naturally change on his own as long as

you’re there,” Sophia said with a smile.

Sonia became even more self-conscious and didn’t reply. She was afraid that if she continued, she would turn into a

legendary figure.

Seeing her embarrassment, Toby pursed his lips and coughed, then looked at Sophia and said, “Okay, enough

talking about this. Let’s get down to business. Sophia, where’s the dress?”

“It’s here.” Sophia immediately lifted the bag in her hand and handed it to Sonia. “Miss Reed, this is the dress that

President Fuller asked me to design for you. Please have a look to see if you’re happy with it or not.”

“All right.” Sonia accepted the bag with both hands. Then, she glanced at Toby after recalling something. “Where’s

your suit?”

Before Toby could answer, Sophia spoke up. “President Fuller’s suit has not been completed yet, and there’s still a

little work that needs to be done, so you should try yours on first to see if there is anything that needs to be

modified, Miss Reed. After all, dresses are more complicated to modify than men’s suits, so I chose to work on your

dress first.”

“I see.” Sonia nodded in realization and said nothing more. After sitting down, she opened the bag and took out the

gift box containing the dress from inside.

The gift box wasn’t tied with a ribbon, so Sonia easily opened the lid, revealing the fiery red dress inside. The dress

was a beautiful vintage Hepburn spaghetti dress with a wide V-neck and a slim-fitting A-line skirt that was decorated

with ruffles below, giving off a sense of playful sexiness to the viewer. She liked it at first glance.
