Chapter 851 Toby’s Concerns

Jean’s voice turned shrill at the mention of Sonia. Toby was nearing the stairway when he heard her, sensing the disgust in her words. He narrowed his eyes as he halted at the stairway. Then, he turned around to Jean.

Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the sulky look on his face. Attempting to explain herself, she muttered, “Toby… I…”

“Mom, as I have told you before, I won’t force you to like Sonia. After all, everyone has their own preference. However, please don’t make it evident in front of me because it upsets me. She is my girl, and I am not going to let anyone look down on her. Not even you. Do you understand?” He gave her a stern glare.

Jean lowered her head and replied sheepishly, “I understand.”

“Of course, you understand, but your actions show otherwise,” Toby remarked. “There is no blood feud between the two of you. What good is it for you to despise her so much?”

 

Jean’s lips parted, but she quickly forced them back together. She couldn’t say anything back to him.

Of course, Jean knew that picking on Sonia would be foolish. It was just that she had been embarrassed by Sonia publicly several times. She had lost all respect, and all she wanted was to be respected as an older person. Because of that, she held a grudge in her heart. That was why she hated Sonia. Therefore, every time she saw or mentioned Sonia, she subconsciously became spiteful.

 

When Toby saw Jean’s silence, he realized the topic had come to an end. He rubbed his temple and sighed as he said, “Anyway, please keep the promise that you will not pick on her anymore.”

“I held my promise. I didn’t do anything to her physically. I just wanted to say something,” Jean mumbled. If she wanted to take action against Sonia, she would have done so already. She wouldn’t have been holding back if it weren’t for Toby.
