This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1177 Sonia’s Envy

Despite Sonia’s efforts, Toby still didn’t catch up to her. She couldn’t help but turn her head back slightly to see what

he was up to, but she was even more annoyed by what she saw.

He was actually taking his own sweet time and strolling as if he was sightseeing. He was obviously not trying to

catch up with her by walking at such a pace!

If he had wanted to apologize to her, he would have caught up with her. He wouldn’t have been walking at such a

leisurely speed. Apparently, he did not intend to apologize to her or coax her! What the heck?!

Sonia was so furious that she stomped her feet. She had wanted to give him a chance to apologize and even

slowed her pace to wait for him, yet it was just her wishful thinking! He had no intention of cheering her up at all!

Alright then, I won’t give you a chance again! So go and cuddle yourself on the couch tonight! At the thought of

this, Sonia retracted her gaze. Instead of slowing down to wait for Toby, she accelerated her pace and stormed off.

When Toby saw her suddenly picking up speed, he was puzzled and wondered what she was thinking.

He couldn’t read her mind, so he decided to stop guessing her thoughts and just chase after her. He caught up with

her this time, but she scowled at him.

She had just given him a chance to repent his sin, but he didn’t cherish it, so what was the point of catching up with

her now?

She was annoyed by his behavior, so she didn’t want to talk to him. So, Sonia pretended as if Toby was invisible. She

wasn’t in the mood to look or even speak to him.

Her actions gave Toby a headache.

He planned to cheer her up so that she would stop being angry with him, but she was treating him as though he

was air at the moment. He figured she wouldn’t even listen if he tried to talk to her now.

What should I do?

Toby massaged his temples as his head began to throb in pain.

There was no answer to his answer right now, nor could anyone give him the answer.

Sonia’s one-sided silent treatment against him lasted until noon when Rose and Mary reappeared.

When Rose glanced at Sonia and then at the agitated Toby, she couldn’t help but ask, “Sonny, did you and Toby

fight?”

She didn’t want to get involved in their disputes at first because she figured it would be best to stay out of it and let

them solve their own problems, lest things worsen. However, she couldn’t bear to see Toby’s helpless look and

Sonia ignoring Toby completely. Therefore, she went against her principles and decided to meddle.

If they really fought, she could try to ease the tension between them. She could even help them mediate the

misunderstandings.

No matter what, she didn’t want them to have a big fight over something trivial because they had finally gotten

back together after so long.

When Sonia heard Rose’s concerns, she realized that her anger toward Toby was so obvious that even Rose and

Mary were picking up on it.

In fact, she was a little embarrassed when she heard Rose’s question.

After all, this was Rose’s house. Not only was she angry with Toby—Rose’s grandson, but even Rose noticed it and

asked her about it. As an outsider in the house, she felt somewhat awkward and uneasy. She also wondered if Rose

would be displeased with her.

Sonia tucked her hair behind her ear and quickly reassured her, “No, Grandma, we didn’t fight.”

Indeed, we did not fight. I simply don’t want to talk to Toby because he’s a j*rk.

“Is that so?” An unconvinced Rose turned her gaze to Toby.

“Yes,” Toby muttered.

Rose frowned in confusion. “Since you didn’t fight, why—”

Sonia looked away and remained silent.

Toby cleared his throat and explained, “It’s my fault. I—” He briefly told Rose how he infuriated Sonia.

It finally dawned upon Rose after hearing Toby’s story, and she glared at him disdainfully. “Serves you right! How

could you do that to her?! Even I want to spank you.”

Mary nodded approvingly. She had never heard of such retaliation.

Just because Sonia laughed at him, he took revenge on her by kissing her so that both of them would have to

experience the stew.

It was also surprising that Toby made such a childish move! Mary would not have believed it if it had been in the

past.

Toby lowered his head, so Rose could not see his expression. She scoffed at him and immediately beamed at Sonia,

“Sonny, calm down. Toby wasn’t thinking straight this time. Just take it as he was out of his mind. It’s not good for

your health to be angry all the time.”

“I know.” Sonia smiled back at her. “I’m not angry anymore.”

“Good girl.” Rose took her hand and patted it gently. “Sonny, you’re such a sweetheart. That brat, on the other

hand, is so hopelessly childish! He’s thirty years old now, but he still behaves in such a silly way. I wonder who he

learned it from. Sonny, he’s silly, so just ignore his behavior and forgive him, okay? You don’t have to stoop to his

level and get so upset, right? There’s no point in doing so. What do you say?”

Sonia smiled. Although Rose was berating Toby by saying that he was childish and silly, she was actually persuading

her on Toby’s behalf to forgive him. Rose was indeed a considerate grandmother who cared about her grandson.

Sonia glanced at Toby enviously. She envied him for having such a lovely grandmother, but she was an orphan.

Her biological parents abandoned her after birth.

She was fortunate to be adopted by her father and loved by her adoptive parents, but unfortunately, her mother

died when she was young, and a few years later, her father passed away as well.

She had a maternal grandfather, but they rarely met or contacted each other because of work.

Technically speaking, she had no family.

Hence, she envied Toby for having a grandmother who genuinely cared about him.

It must feel so nice.

“Okay, I won’t be angry with him anymore. Actually, I wasn’t angry with him. I was just upset. Now that you have

persuaded me, I can’t be willful, right?” Sonia placed her other hand on Rose’s hand and smiled sweetly.

Rose was relieved when Sonia said that she was no longer furious with Toby.

Finally, they had made up. They wouldn’t fight again, right?

Rose looked at Toby and frowned in puzzlement when she saw Toby staring blankly at Sonia, seemingly lost in

thought.

What is up with him? Doesn’t he hear that Sonny is no longer angry with him? He should come over quickly and

cheer her up! What is he doing there in a daze?

Her grandson was a hopeless fool.

Rose exasperatedly raised her feet and kicked Toby under the table.

The abrupt attack snapped Toby back to his senses. He extended his arm and pulled Sonia into his embrace.

Not only Sonia but Rose and Mary were also shocked by his actions.

What is going on? Mary thought. Why is Toby suddenly hugging Sonia?

In contrast to Mary’s puzzlement, Rose smiled in relief.

Not bad. Not bad at all. As expected of my grandson, he is still smart and slick as ever.
