Chapter 1169 Mary’s Teasing

When he saw her behaving in such a way, he couldn’t help but ask, “What happened?” Sonia immediately pursed her lips, which were covered, when she heard that. What happened?

How dare this jerk ask what happened! After receiving no response from her, he reached out his hand and grabbed her wrist, attempting to move her hand away from her face. “Why are you covering your face? It’s difficult to breathe that way. Put down your hands and stop covering yourself.”

Sonia, on the other hand, refused. Her hands remained covering her face as she struggled to keep Toby’s hand from removing them. However, her strength could not be compared to his.

Hence, he could easily take her hands away, revealing her face, which was as red as if blood was about to spill out the next second. Toby blinked when he saw that. He felt like he was looking at a freshly washed apple with water droplets on it, making him drool.

It was a pity that they were in an inappropriate location, where Rose, who was sitting in a pavilion not far behind, could clearly see what was going on here.

Otherwise, he would certainly hold her face and kiss her passionately. After all, such an opportunity was rare. A tinge of regret flashed through Toby’s eyes as a light sigh escaped his thin lips.

Such a pity. Then he released her hands, stroked her warm cheeks, and inquired, “Why are you blushing? What happened?” Sonia glared at him when she heard that. “What happened, you ask? Didn’t you hear what Mary said earlier?”

Toby realized immediately why she was blushing the moment she said this. “That’s nothing. Everyone knows about it anyway; there is nothing to be shy about,” he said with a laugh.

He had initially thought that there was something serious causing Sonia to blush to this extent, but it turned out that it was just due to Mary’s teasing. Toby was even startled at first, thinking she was sick.

“Of course, there’s nothing to be shy about for you; you’ve always had a thick skin. However, I don’t!” She sneered and glared at him.

To that, he simply caressed her head and responded, “Okay, you’re right. I have thick skin. But what happened happened, and you have to face it. You can’t be shy all the time. What if Grandma teases you later as well? Are you going to be shy and blush once more?”

Sonia pursed her lips and said nothing in response, but she knew what Toby said was true. But still, she was certain that would be the case later. Regardless of who teased her about it, she would be embarrassed.

If Rose teased her over the same thing later, Sonia would still act the same way. But even if that would be the case, she knew she had to face it. She couldn’t possibly leave without greeting Rose simply for the sake of avoiding the awkwardness.
