Chapter 1226

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 gladness. 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 play 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.
