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

Chapter 1224

Chapter 1124

As the two elderly chatted while walking, they soon reached the room hand-in-hand.

At this time, Rose was already tired to the point where she did not require reading a book to ease her to sleep.

After Mary helped her back to the room, she laid her down on the bed. In the end, Rose fell asleep in less than two minutes. Seeing how she was asleep made Mary smile as she covered the blanket for her and left.

Exiting the room, Mary closed the door before taking her phone out. She then turned around to look at the shut door with a hesitant expression. Obviously, she was in a dilemma.

Yet after a few seconds, the hesitation on her face disappeared, for it was replaced with determination.

Although Rose had mentioned earlier to refrain from telling Toby about the Lore Family' visit, Mary thought that it would be best to inform him still.

Otherwise, she was worried that Toby might be even more uneasy if he knew about it in the future.

Thinking of this, Mary heaved out a breath before phoning Toby.

On the other hand, Toby had just reached home from disposing of the garbage when he heard his phone ring in the direction of the living room.

He set his shoes aside before walking toward it as the ringtone became gradually louder.

Hearing the footsteps, Sonia put the remote down and looked over. "You're back."

Toby affirmed in response, "I'm back."

Glancing at the ringing phone, Sonia picked it up as he walked over after which she handed it to him. "It's from Madam Mary."

"Mary?" Toby frowned as he retrieved the phone. It really was Mary calling him.

Subsequently, Sonia shifted aside to nudge a space for Toby, who then sat down.

The moment he did, she felt that the couch was sinking down a lot.

Nah, this is probably normal with his weight.

"You should answer that quickly. Perhaps something has happened with Grandma, seeing that Madam Mary is calling you at this hour." Sonia, who saw that Toby was staring at the phone, nudged him in hopes for him to snap back to his senses.

After regaining his composure, the man looked at Sonia before swiping his finger across the screen to answer the call. "Mary?"

Instead of placing the phone by his ear, Toby opened the speaker option and held the phone in his hand.

By doing so, Sonia could hear their conversation as well.

"Young Master Toby, I hope that I'm not disturbing you and the young mistress' rest by calling so late." Mary's gentle voice came from the speaker.



Before he could say anything, Sonia closed in and said, "Good evening, Madam Mary."

"Good evening, Miss Reed." Mary smiled upon hearing Sonia's voice.

Although Sonia could not physically see her, she could tell from her voice that she was surprised to hear her.

"Miss Reed, I'm not interrupting your rest, am I?" Mary asked again.

Shaking her head, Sonia replied, "Of course not. Toby and I had just finished dinner. We're watching TV in the living room right now. We're nightowls, so you're not disturbing us."

"That's good to know." Mary nodded.

Toby then hugged Sonia's waist while asking, "Mary, is something wrong with Grandma? Why did you call at this hour?"

With a rushed tone, he was clearly projecting his worries.

Sonia held his hand with a similarly worried expression.

Obviously, she had the same thought as Toby, thinking that something might have happened to Rose.

On the phone, Mary, quickly shook her head upon hearing Toby's question. "No, no. The madam's health has been alright. I'm calling because of something else."

As soon as they heard that Rose was fine, both Toby and Sonia breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

At the same time, he could feel her somewhat stiff body loosening up as well.

"That's good to know. Then, what made you call, Mary?" Toby's hand, which was on Sonia's waist, started to move around.

Perhaps he knew that his grandmother was fine now, so he was in a good mood instead.

Seeing how the hand was touching her all over her back, Sonia slapped it in annoyance. Yet, her slap was completely ineffective.

Not only did she fail to remove his hand, it only made Toby gripped onto her tighter.

Had she not been worried that Mary might overhear them, Sonia would have bitten the man's arm at this point.

Seeing how hard the woman was fighting with his hand made Toby smile.

She looked just like a cat that met a ball of yarn, which wrapped tightly around her, rendering her unable to move or escape from it. Still, the cat did not want to concede as it started to fight against the ball of yarn.

Just like the cat, Sonia was trying her hardest to fight with his hand.

While talking on the phone, Toby was teasing Sonia and smiling brightly.
