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

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.”

She didn’t reject his offer as she gave him the bowl, whereupon he headed to the kitchen with it and left her alone

with Nancy in the living room.

Not long after that, Nancy stroked her chin and gazed at Sonia peeling off the toffee’s packaging. Then, when she

turned her attention to Toby, she instantly understood what was going on and gave a playful smile.

“It looks like Mr. Fuller has a crush on you, Sonia,” Nancy opined.

When Sonia heard those words, she puckered her lips with the candy in her mouth. Then, she kept her head slightly

lowered and spoke with a soft voice, “Yeah, I guess so.”

Upon hearing Sonia’s confirmation, Nancy asked, “In that case, have you thought about being with him?”

“I don’t know.” Sonia shook her head and circled around the couch before she sat down on another single sofa.

“You don’t know?” Nancy echoed her words. “Are you saying that you’ve actually considered being with him but

haven’t made up your mind about it?”

While chewing the toffee in her mouth, Sonia replied, “Well, you know that I have been divorced once, so I don’t

really trust love anymore because I just can’t handle being hurt again. So, before I really make up my mind, I won’t

start a relationship with anyone so easily.”

“You have a point.” Nancy nodded and angrily added, “This is thanks to your goddamn ex-husband who hurt you so

much that you no longer have the courage to look for your next love.”

Sonia’s lips curled upward in silence as she wondered whether she should inform Nancy that Toby was her ex-

husband before deciding, Fine, I guess she is better off not knowing it.

Nancy expressed her opinion while looking at Sonia. “Speaking of that, Sonia, I think that both of you would be a

perfect couple.”

“Why do you think so?” Sonia bent over and poured herself a glass of water.

“It’s simple; it’s because you are both in love with each other,” Nancy answered while shrugging her shoulders.

When Sonia heard Nancy’s casual answer, her eyes dilated in horror as she nearly dropped the glass in her hand.

There’s no way I’m in love with Toby! That’s absolutely impossible! I’m sure that I no longer have any feelings for

him, so how does it look like I’m still in love with him?

“What’s wrong, Sonia?” Nancy was frightened by Sonia’s dramatic reaction.

Sonia clenched her fists, trying to maintain her composure while forcing a brittle smile. “I’m fine. I’m just a little

shocked by your words.”

“Shocked?” A confused Nancy knitted her eyebrows, wondering why Sonia would be shocked by what she had just

said.

Sonia fiddled with the glass of water. “Yeah, you said I’m in love with Toby, but that’s a joke. Why would I fall in love

with him?”

“Hey, I’m being serious because I’m certain that you are in love with him.” Nancy crossed her legs and added, “I’m

a keen observer and I can tell from the way you look at him that you definitely have feelings for him. Furthermore,

you just said that it has crossed your mind about being together with Mr. Fuller. It’s just that you haven’t made up

your mind, so that brings me to one question—if you’re not in love with him, why would you even think about being

together with him? If that’s the case, what you just said doesn’t make any sense. Don’t you think so?”

In that instant, Sonia was rendered speechless as her eyes widened and her mouth was agape. At the same time,

she was confused by the question of considering rekindling the old flames in the first place and why it never

occurred to her about accepting Charles or Carl.

After all, both Charles and Carl were in love with her as well, which made her question herself about her true

feelings for Toby. Do I really have a crush on Toby? Or, have I found the love that I once had for him again?

At that moment, Sonia sat there in a trance, clearly unable to calm down after Nancy saw through her and pointed

out what was on her mind.
