Meanwhile, in the Fuller Residence, Tyler was doing some letter-reading as well. Even after going through the letter a few times, he still managed to find something new each time. Specifically, he realized that most of the daily routines and hobbies that John described in the letter sounded similar to Toby’s. The most obvious similarity between them was John’s handwriting. However, John’s handwriting looked just a little messier than Toby’s neat and straight words.

If Tyler weren’t aware of the fact that Toby’s pen pal was Tina, he would’ve thought that the person Toby used to write to was actually Sonia. After a while, Tyler folded the letter and put it back into the envelope to keep it away. Sonia must’ve told me to throw it away only because she was angry that I took the letter without her permission. I’m not going to throw it away; I’ll just return it to her in the future. Tyler let out a scoff as he placed the letter into his drawer.

Someone knocked on his door right after that. “The food’s ready, Young Master Tyler.”

“I’m coming!” Tyler replied as he stood up from his chair.

He was greeted with Tina’s gentle smile once he got downstairs. “Tyler.”

“You’re here, Tina.” Tyler returned the smile.

Tina nodded while she spoke. “Madam White invited me over for a meal.”

“I see,” Tyler said as he shot Jean a glance. “Mom,” he muttered flatly. Jean simply let out an uninterested grunt. She ignored his greeting and walked off to the dining area. Tyler shot Toby a helpless glance, and Toby responded with a slight nod.

Tyler’s eyes lit up immediately. “Great! Thanks, Toby!” He jumped in excitement. Toby’s the best indeed—I knew he’d be able to convince Mom about this.

“You should thank Tina as well. She spoke up for you too,” Toby said as he held onto Tina’s hand.

Tyler froze for a moment before he turned around to stare at Tina with a look of disbelief. “Did you speak up for me as well, Tina?”
