This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 695

Chapter 695 Where Did You Get the Bangle?

Toby was caught in a trance when he realized Sonia saw through him. Nonetheless, he was quickly prevented by his pride and intuition from admitting it. Thus, he looked down a little and faked a cough. “Well, I’m not.”

“Are you sure you aren’t?” Sonia looked at Toby, expressing her disbelief in his words. “You looked obviously happy because I can stay over. If not, you wouldn’t have suggested that I bunk down in your place, would you?”

“That’s clearly not what I meant.” Toby tried to talk his way out.

Sonia folded her arms and said, “Really? Alright then, since that’s not what you meant, I suppose I could spend the night in the hotel later. Who says bunking down in your place is the best way?”

“No!” Toby grew anxious when he heard the lady say she wanted to go to the hotel.

“Why not?” Sonia intentionally asked Toby with her eyes filled with mischief.

“It isn’t safe to stay in the hotel,” Toby knitted his eyebrows and replied seriously.

Deep down, Sonia was amused by Toby’s reaction; however, she still tried to keep a straight face on the outside. Oh man! I wish someone knew how hard it is to keep myself from bursting into laughter. “Who says it’s not safe in the hotel?” Sonia grunted. “Do you think I’m going to stay in some motel?”

“No way!” Toby pursed his lips.

 

“Tell me why not then.” Sonia gazed at the man.

While Toby puckered his lips in silence, Sonia’s eyes lit up with glee. It looks like Toby needs a little ‘motivation’ before he decides to admit that he wants me to spend the night at his place. Otherwise, he’ll just keep denying it. At the thought of that, she reached for her phone. “Fine, if you won’t tell me why, I’m going to go ahead and book a room right now. If there’s no available room, I’ll just head over to Charles’s place and bunk down there.”

 

Upon hearing Sonia’s intention to stay at Charles’ place, Toby was instantly piqued and irritated. No way! How can I allow the woman I love to stay at my love rival’s place? He then snatched her phone and locked it. “No! You mustn’t go to the hotel or Charles’ place.”

“Seriously? You don’t seem to be okay with anywhere I want to go. Why don’t you tell me a place that I should head to? Am I supposed to sleep by the roadside?” Sonia placed her hands on her waist and stared at the man.

Soon, Toby returned Sonia her phone and rubbed his temples, as if he was about to make an important decision. “My place. You can only go to my place.” He especially emphasized his point one more time.

Sonia curled her lips in response. “In that case, it means you’re happy that my heater is acting up so that I can come over to your place. Am I right?”

As Toby signified his admission with an affirmative hum, Sonia chuckled and said, “See? It wasn’t hard to admit it, was it? If you had admitted it earlier, I would have had to come so far just to make you do that. You’re insistent, yet your pride still messes with you sometimes. What’s wrong?”

Upon hearing the lady’s words, Toby was seen with his eyes wide open. “So you did it on purpose when you said you were going to stay in the hotel or Charles’ place?”

“Haha.” Sonia laughed and added, “If I hadn’t done that, you wouldn’t have admitted that you’re happy with my malfunctioned heater because you wanted me to bunk down in your place.”

While Toby faked a cough without saying a single word, Sonia shook her head. “Alright, let’s talk later. I’m going to call the technician right now.”

“Sure.” Toby nodded.

While Sonia called the technician and talked over the phone, Toby stood beside her and looked at her with love and affection. When the other visitors and patients saw that, they couldn’t help but think Toby and Sonia were meant to be a perfect couple.

After making the call, Sonia met Toby’s eyes that were staring at her just when she took her phone away from her ear. Uncomfortable with the man’s gaze, she intentionally gawked at him and asked, “What’re you looking at?”

“You.” Toby chuckled.
