Chapter 1472 The Embarrassed Couple

After all, she had fooled around with Toby despite being pregnant. If others were to learn about this, they would definitely think she was eager for sex or something.

In reality, Mary didn't really find out anything, but Sonia's unnatural demeanor gave her away. Putting down the stuff in hand, she looked at Sonia before shifting her gaze toward Toby, who was standing aside with his thin lips curved in a faint smile. She asked in puzzlement, "Young Master Toby, Young Mistress Sonia, what's wrong with you two? I feel there's something strange going on between the two of you." Especially Young Mistress Sonia, who's lowering her head and red in the face. "Young Mistress Sonia, did Young Master Toby bully you or something?" she asked hurriedly.

Sonia looked up and shook her head repeatedly. "No, he didn't bully me."

"Why is your face so red, then?" Mary was baffled.

Sonia opened her mouth to speak, but she couldn't explain it.

In the end, Toby wrapped his arm around her shoulders and let out a cough, saying, "Yeah, I did bully her." Well, I did bully her in a particular way, but not in the literal sense of the word.

Mary didn't understand what he meant, though. Thinking that he had literally bullied Sonia, she shot him a glare of displeasure. "Young Master Toby, how could you do that? How could you bully Young Mistress Sonia while she's pregnant? You—"

"Take it easy, Madam Mary. I'm fine now," Sonia explained while shaking her head repeatedly to calm Mary down.

Mary frowned at Toby. "Young Mistress Sonia, you don't have to speak for him. Just tell me how he bullied you, and I'll help you teach him a lesson. If I can't do that, I'll tell Old Mrs. Fuller about it and let her do that instead."

"Uh…" Sonia's lips twitched. She's putting me in a tight spot, no? How can I bring myself to explain how Toby bullied me? She managed a forced smile, saying, "Madam Mary, it's okay, really, so please stop asking about it. We're alright now. If I did get bullied severely, I'd definitely ask you and Grandma to stick up for me, but I'm really okay."

"Are you sure?" Mary was still worried, though.


Sonia nodded. "Yeah, I'm sure."

"Alright then." Mary believed her at last, but she didn't forget to give Toby a warning look. "Young Master Toby, Young Mistress Sonia has spoken for you this time, but you should behave yourself, too. If you really end up bullying her severely, you're gonna regret it."

"Okay." Toby nodded in all seriousness.

Mary let out a snort before turning back into the kitchen, which was her base camp.

After she left, Sonia heaved a faint sigh of relief. Then, she groped for and pinched Toby's waist right away.

Toby let out a grunt of pain before grabbing her hand at once. "What was that for?"

"Quit playing dumb!" Sonia gave him a dirty look inwardly. "Madam Mary only got to the bottom of it because of what you said. You rendered me at a loss for what to say, you know?"

Toby chuckled under his breath. "Actually, it's okay if we tell her about it. It's something between us, so Mary won't laugh at us for that."

"Yeah, she won't, but she'll surely criticize us for doing so while I'm pregnant," Sonia replied with a snort.

Toby stroked her hair. "No, she won't. She won't find out about it."

"You best hope so." Sonia took his hand away from her before letting out a yawn. "I wanna take a nap." It was common for pregnant women to sleep a lot, and besides, she was exhausted after having made out with him for two hours previously.

Hearing her say that, Toby instantly picked her up and placed her on her sickbed. Then, he tucked her in and kissed her on the forehead, saying, "Just go to sleep. I'll watch over you."

"Uh-huh." Sonia gave him a smile and fell asleep.

Sitting next to her sickbed, Toby held her hand while opening a file to continue dealing with work-related documents. He turned the pages quietly and signed his name very slowly, making as little noise as possible to avoid disturbing her. Even if he knew that she would go into a deep sleep and usually wouldn't be awakened easily after falling asleep, he wouldn't do anything presumptuous.

With Toby's company, Mary's care, Tyler's teasing, and Zane, Charles, and Grace's occasional visits, life was happy and satisfying for Sonia over the next few days. Moreover, Julia and Titus would also keep in touch with her during this period.

However, whenever she got in touch with Titus and Julia, she couldn't help feeling that something was wrong. It was as if something were missing, but she couldn't recall what it was despite racking her brains. Luckily, she wasn't the kind of person who would push herself too hard. Since she couldn't wrap her head around it, she simply didn't think about it and continued to live her life as usual.

Today, Julia made a video call to Sonia again. She was lying face down on her sickbed, having just regained consciousness after undergoing surgery yesterday. As soon as she came around, she called Sonia to tell her that her surgery was a success. After all, Sonia was her only daughter. She just wanted to share the good news with her; moreover, she didn't want Sonia to worry about her. Even though Sonia didn't say it out loud, she could tell that Sonia would get worried if she didn't tell her about the surgery.

Just as she had expected, the furrows in Sonia's brow relaxed visibly after she told her that her surgery was a success. I just knew that my guess was right—Sonny really cares about us, she thought.
