Chapter 927
Chapter 927 Public Disy of Affection
Grace and Curtis subconsciously nodded at Toby’s words. “Well, that’s true.” After all, there was a saying
that a man who was willing to spend money for the sake of a woman must have a ce for her in his
heart, even if he didn’t love her very much. However, a man who was unwilling to spend money on her
must have no ce for her in his heart.
Toby is willing tovish so much money on Sonny. Even if he has yet to love her to the bones, his
feelings for her are probably not far from that, thought Grace as she exchanged a brief look with Curtis.
Inwardly, she gave Toby ten more bonus points. Now he’s 20 points away from a perfect score.
“So, please be sure to ept these presents. These are a token of my regard,” Toby said while pushing
the presents back toward them. Curtis and Grace looked at the presents that were pushed back toward
them. “Does Sonny know that you’ve prepared these valuable presents?” We can’t ept these
presents if Sonny doesn’t know about them.
Knowing what they meant, Toby replied with a slight nod, “Please rest assured, Mr. and Mrs. Lane. Little
Leaf knows about this. I made a point of showing these to her and asking her if it was necessary to add
anything else before bringing these over.
She knows about these presents, so you two may ept them with peace of mind. If you two don’t
ept them, even she will feel ufortable and think that the gifts we prepared aren’t to your liking, let
alone me.”
The instant he said that, Curtis and Grace dared not refuse his gifts anymore. After exchanging a brief
look, they immediately replied, “How could such fancy gifts not be to our liking?”
“Since they’re to your liking, please don’t refuse them anymore.” Toby looked at the couple.
Curtis and Grace exchanged another brief look. Finally, they took the presents back with a smile. “Alright
then. Now that you’ve said so, it’ll seem unkind and even somewhat unreasonable for us to refuse these
gifts,” Grace said with a smile while closing the lids of the gift boxes one by one. She nned to take a
closer look at them and try them on before going to sleep that night.
These are brand-new items that will only be on sale in the next quarter! I’m probably the first in the circle
of upper-ss women who got my hands on these. This is perfect. I can put them on tomorrow and show
them off in front of them. At the same time, she gave Toby thest 20 bonus points on the scoring sheet
in her mind. With that, he scored a perfect score in her mind.
At the moment, she was as satisfied with Toby as she could. Sonny has found herself a nice guy.
Inwardly, she couldn’t stop feeling happy.
“She’s right. In that case, Toby, we’ll ept them with pleasure,” Curtis chimed in while putting the wines
away one by one. Inwardly, he thought the same as Grace. Let’s call those few old friends over tomorrow
to open their eyes. It had to be said that he and Grace had proved themselves to be a couple because
they thought alike.
After putting the presents away, Curtis and Grace chatted with Toby, during which time Grace showed
thetter as much cordiality and friendliness as she could. It was no exaggeration to say that she treated
him like her own son.
At first, Toby didn’t like Grace being so cordial, but he really couldn’t resist it. He had no choice but to
force himself to ept her cordiality with a smile. In the end, however, he slowly got used to it.
When Sonia came back from the washroom, she saw Grace pouring Toby tea in one moment and
offering him fruit the next while calling him “Toby.”
At the sight of this, Sonia was totally stunned. What is going on? What caused Mrs. Lane’s attitude
toward Toby to change drastically while I was absent? Before I went to the washroom, she was still
having him under scrutiny, which was why she purposely pretended to be cool and standoffish toward
him.
Why would she be so friendly toward him when I came back from the washroom? She offers him
food and drink like a mother treating her own son lest he might get thirsty or hungry. So, what happened
when I went to the washroom that made her be so friendly toward him? Looking at the three people
across from her who were chatting happily, she tilted her head to one side in utter bafflement.

Upon seeing Sonia, Toby put down the drinking ss in his hand and beckoned to her. “Hurry ande
over.”
Seeing his gesture, Grace and Curtis turned their heads and saw Sonia. They beckoned to her with a
smile, saying, “Sonny, why are you standing there in a daze? Come on over.”
“I’ming,” Sonia replied with a smile while walking toward them.
When she came to Toby’s side, Toby took her hand and moved to the side to make room for her.
She took the opportunity to sit down.
Toby then handed her a ss of water. “What took you so long?”
Sonia had a drink of water before replying, “I had a phone call to answer. Otherwise, I’d havee back
earlier.”
Toby nodded without questioning her further. He merely picked up the fruit tter that Grace had just
given him. Then, he forked a piece of fruit from it and brought it to her lips.
Sonia seemed to have grown used to being waited upon like this by the man. Therefore, she
subconsciously opened her mouth and ate the fruit in a very natural manner.
Neither she nor Toby thought there was anything wrong with their actions, but Grace and Curtis were
shocked to see this. So is this how Sonny and Toby get along in private? To think that he could humble
himself to look after her like this!
As an old couple, Grace and Curtis didn’t know how other young couples got along with each other, but
they dared to say that many men wouldn’t serve their girlfriends the way Toby did.
After all, young people nowadays were proud and ambitious, and they were pampered and spoiled by
their parents. There was no way they would humble themselves to look after someone else—even if that
someone was their lover. However, as the high and mighty chairman of a conglomerate, Toby was able
to go to such extents. The visual impact brought about by this was simply enormous.
At the same time, though, it proved that he really loved Sonia very much. Furthermore, Sonia epted
Toby’s service in such an unruffled manner without feeling embarrassed in the slightest. This showed
that he had always been looking after her like this in private, which was why as time passed, she no
longer thought it was wrong of him to take care of her like this.
Seeing how the young couple got along with each other, Curtis said with a smile, “Honey, look! They’re
so lovey-dovey.”
Grace nodded with a smile. “You can say that again.”
Upon hearing their words, Sonia finally realized that she had gotten so used to being fed by Toby that for
a moment, she had forgotten that they were not at home, but at Lane Residence. It made her feel rather
embarrassed to be lovey-dovey with Toby in front of Grace and Curtis, and her face reddened. “Well, uh,
sorry for making you see this, Mr. and Mrs. Lane.”
“Nah, it’s okay.” Curtis and Grace immediately waved their hands and said that this was nothing tough
at.
“We’re just feeling happy that you two love each other so much,” Grace replied.
Curtis nodded. “She’s right. My wife and I will be even happier if you two can always be so affectionate
toward each other.”
Sonia hung her head bashfully without saying a word.
On the other hand, Toby smiled unperturbedly. “Don’t worry, Mr. and Mrs. Lane. We will.”
“That’d be great,” replied Grace and Curtis.
Just then, the servant came over. “Sir, ma’am, dinner is served and ready.”
Hearing that the dinner was ready, Grace immediately stood up and said, “Sonny, Toby, let’s go to the
dining room for dinner. It’s such ate hour. You two must be getting hungry, right?”
