This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 590

Chapter 590 Checking in on You

“How are you so sure?” Sonia asked Rose while looking for her phone.

Rose sipped her tea leisurely. “That boy… He just wanted us to end our conversation early so you can go back to rest. Although he said he would let us talk for half an hour, I know him—he definitely can’t wait for half an hour. Check your phone if you don’t believe me.”

Rose beckoned Sonia to check her phone. And so, Sonia took out her phone and lowered her head, thereupon her beautiful eyebrows twitched after she checked her phone. Then, she laughed. “Grandma, you’re right! It’s really Toby.”

“Told you. Alright, pick up his call, or else he would come over in person in a short while.” Rose shook her head and smiled helplessly.

With a hum, Sonia swiped the green button with her delicate fingertip and answered the call. “Hello?”

“Have you finished chatting with Grandma?” Through the phone, Sonia heard Toby’s deep and pleasant voice.

Sonia nodded slightly. “Yeah, we’re almost done.”

“Then, hurry up and ask the servant to bring you over to rest,” Toby said.

Sonia rubbed in between her eyebrows. “Don’t rush us. I want to stay with Grandma for a little longer.”

 

“You’re not feeling cold there?” Toby frowned. “Besides, Grandma needs her rest. She’s old and can’t stay up late.”

Meanwhile, Rose was leaning her ear close to Sonia’s phone. When she heard Toby’s words, she rolled her eyes.

 

What does this boy mean by I can’t stay up late just because I’m old? He’s definitely spewing nonsense! He’s clearly aware of my insomnia and that I basically go to bed very late every night.

It was none other than a false claim when Toby told Sonia that Rose could not stay up late.

Heh. Toby thinks I can’t see through him when I know what’s up his sleeve most of the time. It’s just an excuse to trick Sonia into leaving and resting early. Alright. Fine. What more could I say? It’s all written down by the will of fate. Being able to witness how he wholeheartedly pursues Sonia, I guess I’ll help them.

At the thought of this, Rose moved her head away from Sonia’s phone and then held her forehead tiredly. “Mary, what time is it now?”

“It’s ten o’clock, Old Mrs. Fuller,” Mary said as she glanced at the time.

Pretending to be surprised, Rose stood up. “It’s already ten o’clock? Oh my, it’s already this late? Mary, isn’t it time for me to take my medicine?” As she spoke, she winked at Mary.

Of course, Mary would understand what Rose meant with a small signal, seeing she had served the old woman for decades.

With her head half-lowered, Mary tried to hold back the smile that was slowly painted across her face. She stepped forward to help Rose up. “Yes, Old Mrs. Fuller. The doctor said you must take your medicine at ten o’clock every night, so why don’t we go back to your room first? And since you will feel sleepy after taking your pills, you should rest early as well.”

“I guess you’re right. Let’s go back first.” Rose nodded, then turned to look at Sonia and sighed. “Sonia, I have to go back to take my medicine first. Why don’t you listen to Toby and go back and get some shut-eye?”

The corner of Sonia’s mouth twitched, and in her heart, she knew Rose was not returning to her room at this hour to take her medicine. Instead, Rose took it as an excuse to pardon herself from the conversation. The reason for Rose to do this was just to fulfill Toby’s wish to have Sonia go back. Also, she could see that Rose had been trying to play cupid for her and Toby the whole night tonight.

Odd. Wasn’t Rose the one who clearly said she would not match Toby and me together anymore? But why would she have such intentions now? Could it be that she saw through my feelings for Toby? As expected, everyone had already noticed that I had fallen in love with Toby again. Only I myself was blind enough not to notice and needed Nancy to remind me about it.

Though she let out a rueful smile in her heart, on the outside, she responded with a radiant smile on her face. “I understand, Grandma. You rest early too, you hear?”

“I know… I know… Alright, I’ll get going first, and there will be someone coming over to take you to your room later.” After that, Rose turned her head and looked at Mary, and she immediately walked Rose out of the pavilion.

Now, only Sonia was left in the pavilion. She looked down and saw that the phone screen was still showing that the call was ongoing. Her mouth widened, for she was feeling surprised. The call is still ongoing!?

She thought Toby had hung up while she was talking to Rose. Sonia immediately held the phone close to her ear and asked, “Toby, are you still there?”
