Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 1023

"I'm already downstairs. I'll be back soon," Toby replied in a warm voice.

Hearing that, Sonia smiled. "That's great. I was just finishing up the last dish and was worried that it won't taste

good if it gets cold. Hurry up, it's almost time to eat."

Toby nodded and hummed in reply.

After the call ended, he put down his phone and uncrossed his legs as if he was finally ready to get out of the car.

Sure enough, as soon as he put his phone away, he immediately opened the car door and bent over to exit.

Tom hurriedly lowered the window at the driver's seat and called out to the man who was about to walk toward the

elevator. "President Fuller."

Toby stopped and frowned, as if he was displeased with Tom stopping him from going home. "What is it?" He pursed

his lips, his tone clearly impatient.

The corners of Tom's mouth twitched. What now? Blaming me for keeping him from going home? He rolled his eyes

inwardly. Who was the one who stayed in the car and refused to move earlier? Toby wasn't rushing to get out of the

car and go home just now, but now that Sonia had called him, he immediately wanted to rush home. Ha, men will

always be men!

Although he was ranting in his mind, Tom didn't show it on his face and asked with a smile, "Do you need me to pick

you up tomorrow?"

"What do you think?" Toby asked expressionlessly.

Tom glanced at Sonia's empty parking space and fell silent. After a few seconds, he spoke again. "I understand,

President Fuller. What time should I arrive tomorrow morning?"

"Eight o'clock." Toby thought for a moment before giving him a time.

Tom nodded, making a note of it in his head.

Then, when Toby turned around and was about to leave, Tom suddenly recalled something and extended his hand

from the car window, calling him again. "President Fuller!"

Toby was getting a little angry this time, and he turned around with a dark expression. "You'd better have something

important, or you can go back to the company to work overtime now."

Tom fell silent as his breath got caught in his chest. This man really was vicious!

"President Fuller, I want to say that no matter what happened between you and Miss Reed, I hope that when you go

back tonight, you will have a good talk with her and try to resolve the misunderstanding as much as possible so that

it wouldn't cause you any problems in the future. After all, you almost gave your life to pursue Miss Reed, and I

don't want you two to break up because of a minor issue. President Fuller, d-do you understand what I'm saying?"

Tom looked at Toby and asked cautiously.

As an assistant, it was out of line for him to be involved in his superior's private life. However, he really couldn't

bear to see Toby falling back into his pain after breaking up with Sonia. Hence, he plucked up the courage and

boldly gave his advice, hoping that Toby wouldn't blame him.

In fact, Toby really didn't mean to blame Tom. He was not the kind of person who didn't know any better of himself.

He knew that Tom was worried about him when he said those words, so he would not punish him indiscriminately

for stepping out of line.

"I don't need you to tell me that. I was going to do that myself." The displeasure on Toby's face disappeared,

replaced by an indifferent calm.

His expression showed that he was no longer angry about Tom stopping him earlier, and he wouldn't care about

Tom's rude behavior in meddling in his private life either.

Hearing that, Tom was relieved. After patting his chest, he laughed. "That's good. In that case, I won't delay your

reunion with Miss Reed anymore, President Fuller. I'll leave now and come back tomorrow morning."

After Toby hummed in reply, Tom rolled the car window up and backed the car before he turned and left.

While massaging his eyebrows, Toby entered the elevator. Two minutes later, he opened the apartment door and

walked in. As soon as he stepped inside, a mouth-watering aroma filled his nostrils. His expression softened even

more at the scent and the air around him turned relaxed. He was no longer as cold and indifferent as he was in the

parking lot just now.

Toby changed his shoes and walked into the living room. There was no one there, except for a few dishes that were

placed on the dining table. When he saw the dishes, his eyes flashed with surprise. The dinner tonight was so lavish!

Usually, as it was only the two of them, they would prepare a small meal that was delicious but not large in

proportions. Sometimes they might even have leftovers if they didn't have much of an appetite. However, Sonia

had prepared so much tonight, and the entire table was filled with food. Did something good happen for her to

prepare such a feast?

Toby took off his coat and hung it on the shelf on one side, then turned and walked toward the kitchen. As Sonia

wasn't in the living room and there was still movement in the kitchen, it was clear where she was.

Toby treaded lightly, making almost no sound as he walked. When he arrived at the kitchen entrance, he saw Sonia

standing behind the kitchen counter with her head down, busy doing something seriously. However, her hands were

blocked by her body, and Toby couldn't see what she was doing.

Still, this did not prevent him from leaning against the door frame as he stared at her figure with folded arms. She

had a good figure, and with her height of five feet five, though she wasn't considered tall for a female, she wasn't

short either. In particular, her proportions were good, making her look tall and eye-catching. Coupled with her

curves and her slender waist, along with her long legs, she was a beauty that made people unable to move their

gaze away from her.

Toby kept looking back and forth between the woman's waist and her firm hips with a dark expression, as if he was

about to suck everything into his eyes, making it difficult for one to return his stare. Perhaps he had been staring

too openly as Sonia faintly sensed something, and she paused in her movements to turn around, just to come face-

to-face with Toby's deep and intense eyes.

"Ah!" Her body jolted in shock.

At the sound of her shout, Toby immediately returned to his senses and strode over to her in one big step. He then

grabbed her shoulders with both hands, asking urgently, "What's wrong?"

Upon seeing his nervous expression, Sonia said with an amused smile, "I'm fine, you just scared me. Anyone would

be scared if they turned around and saw someone at the door, right? You should've said something if you're back.

The way you don't even make a sound when you enter, who wouldn't be scared?"

When Toby heard this, he let out a sigh of relief. "Sorry, I just wanted to see what you were doing, but I didn't expect

that I'd scare you."

He really didn't mean to do so. After all, he hadn't expected that she would have such a big reaction after seeing

him.

At his apologetic expression, Sonia patted his arm lightly. "All right, I'm fine. It's not entirely your fault. It's also

because I was too focused just now that I got startled so easily."

"What were you doing?" Toby stepped past her and looked behind her.

Sonia turned around and replied, "I'm carving."

She picked up the pumpkin she had carved in half and smiled sheepishly. "I need to set up the last dish for it to look

good, but I forgot to buy an orchid, so I planned to carve one by myself. When I followed a tutorial online, it looked

simple, but it was difficult when I actually started doing it myself. I didn't expect it to turn out so bad after all that

work. It's all crooked, and it doesn't look like a flower at all. It looks like a pool of mud instead."

Toby laughed under his breath. "It does, but it's still salvageable."

"This pile of mess? Salvageable?" Sonia's eyes widened in shock.

Toby nodded and answered confidently, "Yes!"
