Chapter 1245 Their Insecurities

“I want you to do as I say. You shouldn’t keep your jacket off just because it’s a hassle to put it on.” Toby was afraid that Sonia would reject his orders, so he made a firm statement that convinced her. Toby was right—Sonia no longer felt as cold after he threw the jacket over her shoulders. However, Sonia had no intention of wearing it in the hall.

“It’s not about this being a hassle. I just feel rather embarrassed being the only one to wear my puffer since everyone else is not wearing it. They’re going to laugh at me. Furthermore, where should I put it once I get into the hall?” That was an important question.

Toby held onto her wrists before stuffing them into the holes of the jacket while speaking. “It shouldn’t bother you whether they’re wearing their jackets.

They are the ones who choose to catch a cold and there’s no need for you to compare or fit in with them. You’re the one who knows your body best. Furthermore, do you think anyone would laugh at you when I’m around? Which is worse—getting laughed at or falling sick?” he asked.

“Isn’t the answer obvious? Falling sick, duh,” Sonia replied without giving her words much thought. Toby shot her a glare. “I’m glad you know that. Why aren’t you putting the jacket on, then?”
