Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 967

It's fine, though. It wasn't as if he couldn't fight for what he wanted now that he didn't have his reward.

He could always think of a way to work around things when night fell.

A determined glint flashed across Toby's eyes as he came to that resolution. He then sat in front of the cushioned

stool while he waited for the woman in the dressing room to come out.

A few minutes had passed before the door opened with a click from the inside.

Sonia then stepped out wearing the clothes she had come here in, and she was holding the red dress in her hand.

She was happy to see him waiting for her outside, but she still arrogantly let out a harrumph as she walked past him

in her heels while pretending to not have seen him.

Seeing this,Toby raised his eyebrows and stood up to pull her by her hand. "What is this? You are not going to tell

me that we are leaving?" he asked in a low voice.

As though she had just noticed him, she immediately put on a surprised face and gasped, "You are still here? I

thought you went to the seating area!"

Her act frustrated him to the point of laughing out loud.

How was it that he never knew she had such a frustrating side?

However, Toby had to admit that he thought it was cute.

He lightly pinched her hand and sighed. "Alright, alright. Let's stop messing around. We'll settle our bill with Sophia

and head out for a meal."

Sonia hummed with her lips pressed together while she nodded.

He would always bring the lightheartedness back to normal when there was playful bickering between them

anyway. She wouldn't go against him without reading the mood first.

After they had 'made up', the duo walked hand-in-hand to the seating area, where Sophia and her assistant had

been waiting for them all this time. As soon as the women saw the couple, they quickly stood up to greet them.

Toby only nodded in response, but Sonia replied with a smile and asked Sophia, "Are you done with what you were

out to do, Ms. Sophia?"

Hearing that made Sophia smile. "Thanks for asking, darling. It is done." She nodded.

"That is great, then." As Sonia replied, she could feel a blazing gaze on her. She hesitantly looked over, only to see

that it was Sophia's assistant who had her hands together as she looked at Sonia with a smile on her face.

Sonia couldn't exactly describe what kind of smile the woman had on. It was way more flattering than the motherly

smile the assistant had on before, even to the point where it looked slightly perverted.

The assistant looked extremely unnatural with her 'perverted' smile so wide that it almost reached her ears as she

stared at Sonia and Toby.

Sonia didn't know why the assistant was looking at them that way, but she was weirded out by it. It gave her an

unspeakable feeling that she had been seen through.

Thinking of this, Sonia forced a smile as she questioned the assistant, "Uh... Is there something on my lover's or my

face? Why are you looking at us like that?"

As soon as Toby heard Sonia's words, he squinted and looked at the assistant as well.

He had actually noticed the gaze earlier, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.

There were too many people who would both openly and secretly stare at him everyday anyway. There was no way

he could look at every single one of the onlookers.

More importantly, the assistant was a woman. He would always make it a point to not look at other women.

However, according to Sonia, the assistant not only looked at him, she was also staring at Sonia. He couldn't help

but raise his guard after hearing something like this.

The assistant hadn't thought that Sonia would directly call her out for her staring, which was why when Sonia did,

the assistant's reverie was immediately broken as her face paled, and she panickedly looked to Sophia for help.

She was a mere assistant who liked looking at the gossip column on the Internet, and occasionally paired couples

together.

It was no wonder she would get so excited and agitated as she finally had a rare chance of seeing the couple she

had previously paired up together. Not only that, she even overheard them going at it live in the dressing room.

That was why she couldn't help herself from gawking at them when the protagonists had reappeared in front of

her.

She didn't think she would get caught, though.

Now that she had been busted, she couldn't come up with a good enough explanation as to why she was looking at

them that way. She had a feeling they would get angry if they were to hear that she was only looking at them

because she had heard them having fun in the dressing room.

It wouldn't even surprise her if they were to wipe her off from the surface of the earth.

As fear started to get to her, the assistant looked at Sophia, seeming to plead for help more and more desperately.

Help me! Lady Boss, please help me!

Sophia, who understood her assistant's distressed call for help, sighed at the headache her little assistant was

causing her. She then returned the assistant a reassuring look.

Her troublemaker of an assistant might be on the dumber side, but she had worked for Sophia for many years.

Sophia was satisfied with how her assistant was serious and meticulous about her work.

She couldn't possibly watch on as her assistant fell into doom.

Heaving a breath, Sophia turned to Sonia and Toby with a smile. "Please don't misunderstand, President Fuller and

Miss Reed. My assistant is a little soft in the head sometimes."

She then pointed to her own head. "On top of that, she is a fan of both of you. She usually likes watching you on the

Internet. It is what people of your country call..."

"'Shipping', Ms. Sophia," the assistant reminded her.

Sophia continuously nodded at that. "Ah yes, yes. That's it. She likes to 'ship' both of you together. She only stared

because she was too happy to see you. Please don't mind her too much. She doesn't harbor any ill intentions."

"Yes. Please don't get angry, President Fuller and Ms. Reed. I promise I won't do it again." The assistant quickly

nodded in support of Sophia's words, and her expression couldn't get more serious than this.

In fact, Sonia hadn't felt any malicious intent coming from the assistant earlier, so she naturally didn't doubt

Sophia's words. "We aren't angry," she assured with a smile on her face. "I was only curious as to why your

assistant kept looking at us, Ms. Sophia. Everything is fine now that you have explained it. Isn't that right, Toby?"

Sonia gently nudged Toby with her elbow as she asked him, also reminding him to stop staring at the meek

assistant.

It was fine as long as she didn't look at them because she had plans to hurt them or anything. It wasn't as though

looking alone did anything to them.

Toby understood Sonia's words, and only tilted his chin in silent acknowledgement.

Honestly, it wasn't as though he would do anything to the assistant even if Sonia hadn't reminded him.

He wasn't a demon who would hold grudges just because someone looked.

Because if he did, almost the entire population on earth would be his enemy.

Still, he kept musing on Sophia's explanation earlier.

Happy? The assistant's eyes didn't only look 'happy'.

They had been here for about two to three hours. Why would the assistant only be 'happy' now instead of when

they had just arrived?

He concluded that Sophia was lying in order to help her assistant hide the truth.

Still, it didn't matter. He already had a rough guess of why the assistant looked at them that way.

Not knowing that Toby had already seen through their lie, Sophia and her assistant were relieved that the couple let

it go just like that.

The assistant even almost burst out in tears due to extreme joy as she blurted out words of gratitude.

She knew that her 'ship' wouldn't disappoint her.

Not only was her 'ship' beautiful on the outside, they were also incredibly wonderful on the inside.

Oh—how happy I am!

The assistant was so worked up she lifted her hand to wipe the moisture from her eyes.

Sonia was surprised at first, but she soon started laughing hysterically.

However, Sophia thought that her assistant was embarrassing her, and she lightly hit her. "What are you doing,

child? Is there a need for you to burst out in happy tears because President Fuller and Ms. Reed are going to let you

off the hook?"

After saying that, Sophia flashed Sonia an embarrassed smile and added, "My apologies for this ridiculousness, Ms.

Fuller. My assistant is still behaving like a kid, you see."

Sonia shook her head with a smile as she listened to Toby's translation of Sophia's words. "Don't worry about it,"

Sonia murmured. "She is adorable. Alright now, Ms. Sophia. It's getting late, and my lover and I would like to head

out to dinner now.

I'll have to trouble you with wrapping both the dress and heels up, please."
