This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 725 Surreptitious

She glared at him, and the look in her eyes said, ‘What are you laughing at? How dare you laugh? We

wouldn’t have been in this situation if not for you taking me here.’

He touched her cheek and huddled closer, then he said with a voice only they could hear, “Don’t worry.

We won’t be found.”

“And how are you so sure about that?” Sonia didn’t believe him.

Toby was about to say something, but then the employees started talking again.

“But I don’t see anyone here.” The employee named Lisanna looked around. “There’s only the two of

us here. You must be seeing things.”

“There’s only the two of us here, but I heard someone talking just now.” The employee who talked first

earlier waved her hand. “No. It wasn’t someone talking. I heard a grunt. No, more like a moan. Yeah, a

moan.”

“A moan?” Lisanna blinked. “I didn’t hear it. You might be hearing things.”

“No, I didn’t.” The first employee shook her head adamantly.

“Odd. We’re alone here, but there’s someone moaning? Wait, it can’t be…” Lisanna shivered, and her

voice started trembling. “This place can’t be haunted, right?”

The first employee shrieked, and she blanched. “That’s just nonsense, Lisanna. There are no ghosts.

It’s still morning. Stop scaring me.”

“I’m not scaring you. You said you heard things but we’re alone here, so who made that sound? It’s

either a ghost, or you must have been hearing things,” Lisanna said seriously.

The first employee gulped. “D-Do you think this place is really haunted?”

“Who knows?” Lisanna shook her head fearfully.

The employee held the cleaning cloth. “Why don’t we hotfoot it out of here, Lisanna? You’re scaring

me, and I’m getting the heebie jeebies.”

“But we haven’t finished cleaning the room.” Lisanna wanted to go out, but she hesitated.

Her colleague held her arm. “Forget it. It’s not even dirty, and this room isn’t used too much. It’s fine, so

let’s just leave. I’m really getting scared here.”

“You’re right. Let’s go.”

The employees took their cleaning tools and left the room as soon as possible.

Sonia was looking absolutely stormy and annoyed after hearing that. “They… They called me a ghost?

That’s just too far.” I don’t look like a ghost.

“Yeah, it is.” Toby nodded. “Ghosts are ugly, but you’re hot. They just can’t see the difference.”

Sonia rolled her eyes. “It’s all your fault. I wouldn’t have done this if it weren’t for you.” She pushed him

away and sat up, then she combed through her hair with her hand. “This is the first time I’m hiding

under a table.”

“Me too.” Toby sat up and straightened out his suit.

Sonia grumbled, “You brought this on yourself. I told you to let me go, but you took me straight under

the table.”

Toby smiled. “If we didn’t hide, they would have seen us. Even if we hadn’t done anything, there would

still be rumors flying around tomorrow. Wanna bet?”

Sonia paused for a moment. “But why?” Obviously, she was still dazed.

Toby sat on the rug. He put one leg up and crossed the other leg underneath. It was a sexy pose.

Then, he raised one finger. “Because we stayed around for a long time after the conference ended. Do

you think they won’t imagine what we were doing in the room during that time?”

Sonia couldn’t find any argument for that. He has a point. We stayed in a room, alone. Of course they’d

start to imagine things.

Toby raised another finger. “And secondly, you stand out too much.”

Sonia tilted her head to the side. “How?”

Toby pointed at his lips, and she looked at them. His lips were thin and nice, and the color wasn’t too

luscious. However, now that she had a closer look, she realized his lips were obviously red. The only

reason for that was because of the kissing. His lips had turned red from the kiss, and it was the same

for Sonia. Her upper lip was thin, but her lower lip was full. It was perfect for kissing, so her lips would

be redder than his after the kiss, and they might even be swollen.

No wonder I stand out. My lips are swollen from the kiss. Of course I stand out. Just like what Toby

said, after the employees came in, even if they weren’t kissing or standing together, the employees

could still figure out what they were doing before they came in. The rumors would still fly around the

next day. “So I have to thank you for taking me under the table?” Sonia looked at him speechlessly.

He pushed a lock of her hair behind her ear and whispered, “No. But if you insist, I wouldn’t mind.”

Sonia’s lips twitched. “Give an inch and you take a mile. You can stay here if you want, but I’m going

out.” She pulled the tablecloth up and crawled out.

After she left, Toby went out as well, and they reappeared in the conference room.

Sonia heaved a sigh. “I don’t want to do that kind of stuff ever again.”

Toby straightened his suit, and he chuckled. “But don’t you think it’s exciting?”

“Once is enough.” She massaged her neck. “We’re lucky we weren’t found out, but we might run out of

luck the next time. I’m not taking the risk, and you aren’t dragging me into this.”

Toby shrugged, though he looked disappointed. Fine, no next time then, but I can change the spot.

Bathrooms, couches, and even the balcony. He curled his lips into a smile.

Sonia didn’t know what he had in mind, but that smile made her shiver. I have a bad feeling about this.

He must be up to something bad. “We should go out now.” She held his arm and stopped his train of

thought, then she dragged him away.

Toby smiled at her and played along quietly.

She opened the door and went out, but Sonia looked around her, as if she was worried someone might

see them.

Toby was amused by what she was doing. “What are you doing?”

“Oh, what do you know?” She looked at him. “I’m checking the coast. If someone saw us coming out,

they’d come up with another rumor, so we have to avoid the crowd, understand?”

Toby nodded. “Understood.”

“Alright. You take that side, I take this side. We’ll split up and cover more ground.” Sonia pointed at her

left.

“Okay.” Toby nodded. If she wants to do this, I’ll play along. She was reluctant to hide under the table

earlier, but she played along with me anyway.

The two of them skulked around furtively and evaded all the offices and crowds before finally coming

back to their own office.

The moment she closed the door, Sonia heaved a sigh of relief. “Now I can rest easy. Nobody will know

what happened.”

Toby stood beside her and smiled lovingly. “That’s right.”

Sonia stretched her arms and turned around. “So what now? It’s still early, so aren’t you going back to

your company?”
