Madam Escaped Again Sir

Chapter 1455 Toby's Revenge

From Mary? Toby had just video-called Sonia two hours ago. Did something bad happen to Sonia?

At that thought, he swiftly abandoned his work, threw his pen aside, and tapped into the messages.

However, the messages did not bring bad news as he expected. They were just some photographs.

In the photos, Sonia was trying on all sorts of antique dresses with a bright smile on her face. She looked gorgeous.

Although her beauty was not as striking since she did not have her hair and makeup done, Toby thought Sonia looked beautiful no matter what. His eyes softened. After saving all the photos he received, he called Mary.

“Young Master Toby?” Mary waited until Sonia went away to change into another dress before answering the phone.

Julia discreetly pricked her ears up when she heard it was a call from Toby.

Unfortunately, Mary did not put him on speaker. No matter how hard Julia tried, she could not hear a word he said

In the end, she gave up on trying to listen in on the conversation and solemnly focused on the changing room door, waiting for Sonia to come out dressed in another dress.

"What's going on, Madam Mary?" Toby leaned back in his chair. "Where did these dresses come from?" While he was not very fashion-savvy, he could tell that Sonia's dresses were high quality and nat something that could be easily bought on a whim

The embroidery and designs on those dresses were easily recognizable as handmade works from famous designers. They were not dresses that one could buy with mere money.

When Mary realized that was the reason for the call, she chuckled. "The dresses are from Mrs. Gray, sir. Old Mrs. Gray had them made for Mrs. Gray years ago. Some are maternity wear, and some are normal dresses. Mrs. Gray said she never wore any of them before, so they are a gift for Young Mistress Sonia.”

Ah. Toby nodded. Kind of guessed it.

Only a top-tier embroiderer like Pauline Gray could have made those dresses. "What do you think, Young Master? Are they nice?" Mary asked with a smile. He smiled, "Yes."

"What a pity that Young Mistress Sonia doesn't have her hair and makeup done. Oh, it won't be too late to dress her up when the child is born anyway. I just know she'll look amazing.”

Women who had given birth were always a little more voluptuous than before. All those antique dresses would look the best in wearers who were slightly more voluptuous. While Sonia looked beautiful in them now, she would look even more striking wearing the dresses after she gave birth.

Mary's words made Toby imagine what Sonia would look like in those dresses with her hair and face completely done up. His eyes darkened as he hoarsely said. "My wife is naturally the most beautiful woman around.”

"Yes, sir." Mary nodded with a smile

"Where's she?" Toby asked.

"She has gone to get changed. We still have two more dresses to try out. I'll pass the phone to her once she's out." “Okay.”

Soon, Sonia stepped out of the changing room in another dress. Julia walked over to straighten out the dress.

The dress was what some might call gothic with multiple skirt layers that required to be straightened after the dress was put on. Otherwise, the dress would look like a mess.

The dress was extremely beautiful though. If Sonia had a hat on. she would look like a noblewoman who had come out of a painting

Sonia loved the dress. To be more exact, this was her favorite dress out of all that she had tried out

As Julia continued to straighten out the dress, she gave Sonia an admiring smile. "You're so beautiful. I just knew this dress would suit you." Sonia lowered her eyes and weakly whispered, "Thanks."

Julia froze for a moment before happily shaking her head. "You don't need to thank me. You deserve it.”

It was a mother's duty to praise her daughter.

Sonia had run out of words to say. Then, she heard a camera snapping.

She turned around to find Mary smiling at her. "It's a photo for Young Master Toby. He just so happened to call me, Young Mistress. Would you like to speak with him?”

Although it was a question, Mary shoved the phone into Sonia's hand without waiting for a reply.

Mary's actions made Sonia want to.

Xu

laugh as she turned to hold the phone up to her ear. Before she could say a word, Toby's sensual vaite drifted to her ears. "Gorgeous."

Her face blushed red as she knew he was referring to how she looked in the dresses.

"How about you model them for me again when I get back?" he asked

"You've seen them all, right? Madam Mary's been taking pictures the entire time. I know she sent them to you,” she shot back shyly. "I have, but seeing it in person is more realistic. I'd love to see them with my own eyes,” he answered

She chuckled. "Okay. We'll talk once you get back. Are you busy right now?"

She was curious

He shook his head. "Not really.”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"It sounds like you are somewhat busy. I'll leave you to your work, alright? Bye." Sonia then moved to end the call

"Wait!" he called out quickly. "Don't rush. Let's talk.”

There was a coy pleading tone in Toby's voice.

That made her smile. "What do you want to talk about?"

"The bodyguards say Charles and Zane are annoying you again,” Toby said with narrowed eyes.

Those two men... Did they think I would not know they went looking for Sonia when I am away?

She had expected him to ask about that. "They're visiting me, not annoying me.”

"When they're together, they're as loud as a dozen ducks. How are they not annoying?" He raised his eyebrows in question She froze. When she thought about how the two men would get into a fight every other second, she realized Toby was right.

"What happened in the end with Charles? Why was he upset when he left? Did he fight with Zane? Were you implicated?” he asked, worried.

She shook-her head. "No, they weren't fighting, Something happened to Daphne, so Charles was upset. I don't know what ~ happened though, and she ditin't say anything. She hasn't even called me

yét.”

Vie,

That made her feel quite exasperated.

It seemed like Charles did not properly listen to her.

‘Ignore hinasl've told the bodyguards that they-are not allowed to visit you together in the future. There can only-be one of them around you at one time,” he exerted. Content ~~

She was shocked. "You never liked them. Why are you still willing to let them visit?"

A glint flashed in Toby's eyes when he heard that. He smirked. "I want them to know I'm going to be a father while they are still forever alone.” To put it bluntly, he merely wanted to aggravate the two men

Why would he not allow them to torture themselves if they asked for it?

His reasoning was so unexpected that it filled her with both anger and glee. "You are so childish. Aren't you afraid they'll get so angry that they will strike back?"

"Them? Pfft." He raised his chin high as he mocked smugly. Being smug was not considered going overboard on his end since he had a point to behave as such. "President Fuller.” Just then, someone knocked on his door.

Hearing Tom's voice, Sonia knew there was work waiting for Toby. Hence, she decided to end the call. "I'll leave you to your work. We can talk later, honey."

"Okay. I'll call you back.” Toby nodded. After ending the call, Sonia handed the phone back to Mary.

Julia handed Sonia the last dress. "Try this one."
