Chapter 1409

Toby grunted and took the fork, then he dug into the aglio olio. Sonia rested her chin on her hand, staring at him. Not a sound echoed in the air, save for the sound of Toby munching on pasta. But even so, Sonia still felt warm and fuzzy. The man she loved was right in front of her. Not too long later, Toby was done with the aglio olio, and Sonia sat up. “Do you want more?”

“No. I’m full.” He shook his head.

Sonia didn’t persuade him to eat more. Everyone’s appetite was different. Trying to force someone to eat more would be bad for them.

Mary took the cutlery away and did the dishes, while Sonia poured Toby a glass of warm water. “Here.”

“Thank you.” He took the glass of water and had a sip.

“Has Charles gone back home?” asked Sonia.

“Yes.” Toby nodded. “Been a while now. He’s coming back tomorrow, and his mother is tagging along.”
