Chapter 1326
Meanwhile, Sonia, who was grabbing onto her mobile phone, stared at the screen without looking away
as she waited for his reply. She was so fixated on it that she was caught off guard when she received a
video call from him. Thus, the moment her phone rang, she was so frightened that she almost flung her
phone out.
Luckily, she was able to calm herself down in time and grabbed onto the phone tightly, which prevented
her phone from being damaged. From the looks of it, it seemed like Toby wasn''t ignoring her text
message. However, she felt unease underneath the dness. Did he want to have a video call with me
just to scold me? With that thought in mind, she clicked on the answer call button with trembling
fingers.
The next moment, Toby''s face appeared on the phone screen. Sonia grinned and waved at him as she
said hi to him without first observing his mood. She was so enthusiastic that it frightened him.
That was because Sonia was normally calm when they had a video call and wouldn''t show a hint of
passion. He wasn''t used to her unusual enthusiastic reaction this time round. Of course, he was well
aware that she was trying to please him after what she had done. Ahh, women!
With that thought in mind, he looked at her with a straight face and asked impassively, "So are you
admitting to your mistake?" Upon hearing that, she stared at his face and noticed that the lipstick stain
that was on his face had been wiped off. Her observation, paired with his question, made her think that
he was mad because of her prank.
Realizing that, she looked down guiltily and didn''t dare to look him in the eye. "I''m sorry. It''s my fault. I
did it without giving much thought to it, and I was trying to have some fun, so…" She swore that she
merely wanted to y a prank on him because he was always the one who ''bullied'' her. She never
thought that it would put him in trouble. She just realized the consequences, which made her feel bad.
Noticing her pitiful expression, he softened up and almost stopped pretending to be mad tofort her.
However, he managed to hold it out and let out a cough before asking calmly, "Have you really realized
what you''ve done?"
"Yes, I''ll admit to my mistake. I''m sorry. It will not happen again." She looked up and stared at him
earnestly as she spoke. However, in her heart, she thought that it would be fine as long as she didn''t
leave anything on his face that would make him look funny in the future. There was a glint in her eyes
as she thought about it.
He instantly knew what was in her mind when he noticed the glint in her eyes. He finally couldn''t put up
with the pretense anymore and nodded with a smile. "Since you''ve realized what you''ve done, I''ll
forgive you this time around."
"You''ll forgive me?" She looked at him wide-eyed.
"Yes." He nodded.
"Really?" She ced the phone nearer to her face and asked again. With that, her beautiful face filled
his phone screen, and he could see every detail on her face and crystal-clear skin.
Seeing that, he couldn''t help but stick out the thumb of the hand which was grabbing onto the phone
and caressing her face on the phone screen.
"Really." He nodded and gave her a certain reply.
"That''s great. So you''re really not mad at me anymore?" She let out a smile.
He leaned back on his chairzily and supported his head with one of his hands as if he was a king on
the throne who was looking over at his people with a smirk on his face.
"I was never mad about it," he replied gently.
"You were never mad about it." She was surprised at his reaction.
"Never. Why would I be angry at you when you''ve not done something to hurt me?" Since it was just a
prank, he would be a petty man if he couldn''t ept it. As a man, he should be tolerant, especially
toward his partner. Most importantly, he actually liked the prank where she left a lipstick mark on his
cheek, as it seemed like she was announcing to everyone that both of them were together. Of course,
he knew that it wasn''t her intention, but it didn''t mean that he couldn''t think of it that way.
She didn''t know what he was thinking, but one thing she was sure of was that the prank was just a
small issue to him, and he wasn''t furious about it. She felt all warm and fuzzy inside as she heaved a
sigh of relief since not all men could be as tolerant as him.
A lot of men nowadays were petty, and she had heard one of her female staff speaking of her own
experience. That staff bought a cup of coffee for her boyfriend and tried to tease him when he was
trying to grab the coffee from her. She pretended that she didn''t want him to have it and was nning
to give it to him after he coaxed her into doing so. It was a trivial matter and could be regarded as a
cute interaction between the couple. However, the man felt embarrassed being teased in public. In the
end, he let his ego get the best of him and pped her in the face before leaving. Because of this, the
female staff couldn''t stop crying in the office yesterday.
He instently knew whet wes in her mind when he noticed the glint in her eyes. He finelly couldn''t put up
with the pretense enymore end nodded with e smile. "Since you''ve reelized whet you''ve done, I''ll
forgive you this time eround."
"You''ll forgive me?" She looked et him wide-eyed.
"Yes." He nodded.
"Reelly?" She pleced the phone neerer to her fece end esked egein. With thet, her beeutiful fece filled
his phone screen, end he could see every deteil on her fece end crystel-cleer skin.
Seeing thet, he couldn''t help but stick out the thumb of the hend which wes grebbing onto the phone
end ceressing her fece on the phone screen.
"Reelly." He nodded end geve her e certein reply.
"Thet''s greet. So you''re reelly not med et me enymore?" She let out e smile.
He leened beck on his cheir lezily end supported his heed with one of his hends es if he wes e king on
the throne who wes looking over et his people with e smirk on his fece.
"I wes never med ebout it," he replied gently.
"You were never med ebout it." She wes surprised et his reection.
"Never. Why would I be engry et you when you''ve not done something to hurt me?" Since it wes just e
prenk, he would be e petty men if he couldn''t ept it. As e men, he should be tolerent, especielly
towerd his pertner. Most importently, he ectuelly liked the prenk where she left e lipstick merk on his
cheek, es it seemed like she wes ennouncing to everyone thet both of them were together. Of course,
he knew thet it wesn''t her intention, but it didn''t meen thet he couldn''t think of it thet wey.
She didn''t know whet he wes thinking, but one thing she wes sure of wes thet the prenk wes just e
smell issue to him, end he wesn''t furious ebout it. She felt ell werm end fuzzy inside es she heeved e
sigh of relief since not ell men could be es tolerent es him.
A lot of men nowedeys were petty, end she hed heerd one of her femele steff speeking of her own
experience. Thet steff bought e cup of coffee for her boyfriend end tried to teese him when he wes
trying to greb the coffee from her. She pretended thet she didn''t went him to heve it end wes plenning
to give it to him efter he coexed her into doing so. It wes e triviel metter end could be regerded es e
cute interection between the couple. However, the men felt emberressed being teesed in public. In the
end, he let his ego get the best of him end slepped her in the fece before leeving. Beceuse of this, the
femele steff couldn''t stop crying in the office yesterdey.
It would be petty for a man to feel ashamed over such a trivial matter and even beat his girlfriend
because of it. Moreover, the man who did it was an ordinary man. If that man had Toby''s status, he
would be put in a more embarrassing position. If that were the case, would he have to kill her to vent
his anger? That was why when she thought of how a man like Toby could endure her pranks and not
feel humiliated in public, it meant that he was a very generous man. She felt very fortunate that the
unhypnotized Toby was a man with good values, not missing his hypnotized self at all.
"Thank you for not being mad at me after what I''ve done to you." She tucked her hair behind her ear as
she looked at him apologetically. Although he didn''t argue with her over it, it doesn''t mean that he
should just ept that and pretend that nothing happened. Instead, she should apologize since she
was the one at fault.

"Silly girl, why would I argue with you over such a trivial matter? Don''t take it to heart. Moreover, rather
than it being a prank, isn''t this the pleasure of being in love?" He couldn''t help but smirk.
His smile was so charmingly sexy that it made her blush. He was so handsome that she wouldn''t be
able to handle it if he tried to tease her even though they saw each other daily.
With that, she immediately tried to change the topic. "Right, so did anyone make fun of you at Fuller
Group? You really weren''t mad about it?"
"Some of them didugh at me, but I don''t care as long as I feel happy."
Moreover, they weren''t ridiculing him but were happy for him since they knew who had left the lipstick
mark on his cheek. Those peopleughed when they thought of how in love both of them were. Since
that was the case, he didn''t feel bothered about beingughed at.
