Chapter 583 Midnight Intruder

Sonia tossed the bathrobe onto Toby and said, “This is something that I bought online a while ago, but it’s too big for me. So, you can wear it. Even though it might be a little small for you, it’s just for a night, so you’ll just have to make do.”

As Toby caught the bathrobe, he answered, “All right.”

“Go and take a shower and quickly dry your hair before you catch a cold.” While she said that, she pointed in the direction of the bathroom.

“Well, I’ll be going then.” With a nod, he left for the bathroom with the bathrobe in his hands.

After he left, she didn’t stay in the living room either. Instead, she went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of ginger soup for him.

No matter what, she could not let him catch a cold after he had given her the crystal ball.

After slicing the ginger, Sonia turned on the stove and began to make the soup.

Once she was done, she took the bowl of soup back to the living room.

When she noticed that Toby still hadn’t emerged from the bathroom, Sonia placed the bowl of ginger soup on the coffee table. Then, she sat down and picked up the crystal ball once more.

As she caressed the crystal ball, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “What an idiot. Who in their right frame of mind would go out in the heavy snow at night just to buy this thing, except for you?”

After that, Sonia returned the crystal ball into its box and walked to her room where she placed the box on her nightstand. Then, she opened the box once again to reveal the crystal ball inside.

Soon after, she kept away the swan decoration that was originally on the nightstand.

Without the large swan decoration occupying the space, the nightstand looked empty and plain with only the small crystal ball on top of it.

However, Sonia didn’t think that it looked ugly. At that moment, to her, there was no other decoration that could compare to the crystal ball.

At this time, she heard a noise coming from the living room.

When she realized that Toby had finished showering, Sonia hurriedly walked out of her room. However, she couldn’t help but let out a laugh at the sight of him standing by the couch and drying his hair in her bathrobe.
