Chapter 928 Sit Still

“Yeah, we’re a little hungry.” Sonia touched her stomach without being reserved with Grace. After all, they were very close, so there was no need to stand on ceremony.

Hearing her reply, Grace hurriedly said, “In that case, let’s hurry and go there.”

Sonia nodded with a smile. “Alright. Mr. and Mrs. Lane, please go first. We’ll follow you from behind.”

Curtis then headed for the dining room while taking Grace by the hand, whereas Toby followed behind them while holding Sonia’s hand.

As they walked, Sonia gently tickled Toby’s palm with her fingertips.

Toby wrapped his fingers around her hand to keep her out of mischief. Then, he asked in a whisper, “What’s the matter?”

Sonia pointed at Curtis and Grace, who were walking ahead of them, with one hand while cupping the other hand around her mouth. She whispered, “What happened? Why did Mrs. Lane’s attitude toward you change so greatly?” Curtis had been more friendly toward Toby when they came, whereas Grace had been relatively cold toward him. Sonia knew that Grace had purposely put on a cold front for the purpose of testing Toby, but could she have finished testing him so soon?

Toby’s thin lips curled up slightly at Sonia’s curious question. “That’s simple. I let them open the presents to take a look.”

The instant he said that, Sonia immediately figured out what had happened. After raising her pretty eyebrows for a moment, she gave him a thumbs up. “That was a smart move. I thought you’d only give them the presents before we leave.”

“That wouldn’t be necessary,” Toby replied with a chuckle. “I could make Mrs. Lane approve of me sooner by doing so, so why not?”

“Well, you’re right.” Sonia giggled as well.
