Chapter 969 Terrified Rina
“Of course.” Toby chuckled. “I know you’re trying to attract Madam Lloyd’s attention; that’s why you commissioned the earlier dress. However, that dress was destroyed by Anya. Since I took over this task, I won’t forget the purpose of your dress. I won’t only find the best dress for you and forget about Madam Lloyd. That’s why I commissioned the dress from Sophia.”
Sonia looked at Toby with eyes full of emotion. “Thank you so much. You kept thinking about me.”
As Toby had stopped before a red traffic light, he freed his hand to stroke her hair. “If I don’t plan carefully, I will be holding you back. Your hubby is not dumb at all.”
“Hey!” Sonia blushed. “Hubby? Since when are you my husband? Stop assuming things.”
Toby raised his eyebrows. “Am I really? You said you will remarry me and we can have a child. I’m just saying that earlier. I’m not wrong.”
Sonia couldn’t refute it.
Indeed. Assuming things are going well, we will get married again.
He isn’t wrong; he’s just early.
Fine, I’ll just let him be.
“Alright, the light’s green now. Go.” Sonia peevishly glanced at the man and changed the topic.
Toby chuckled and stepped on the pedal.
On the way, Sonia suddenly frowned and looked worried.
Although Toby was driving carefully, he would still pay attention to her from time to time using the corner of his sight.
Seeing her worried expression, he asked with concern, “Any more troubles?”
“I have a feeling that I forgot something,” Sonia said with uncertainty while biting her lip.
Toby turned around and glanced. “Forgot something?”
“Yeah.” Sonia nodded. “I think I’ve overlooked something, especially since I left Sophia’s shop. However, I can’t remember what I had forgotten.”
“Then don’t think of it anymore. If you feel that way after you leave Sophia’s store, it means you have forgotten something in that store. However, the only thing we did in the store was to get the dress. We have nothing to do with the store after we receive the dress so even if you do forget something, it is not important. Don’t worry about it,” Toby comforted while looking at the road ahead.
Sonia thought it made sense, so she didn’t say any more.
Soon, they arrived at the most famous restaurant specializing Norfolkian cuisine in Seafield.
After Toby parked his car, he took Sonia’s hand and the duo then went in.
The restaurant was vast as it had two floors. The first floor was an open hall and the second floor housed private rooms.
It was apparent Toby wouldn’t choose an open hall. After entering, he quickly asked for a room as he didn’t want to enjoy a meal with others.
He just wanted to enjoy the meal with Sonia without being disturbed.
Sonia thought the same. The hall was crowded and chaotic, and the private room was quiet compared to the hall.
Hence, she was happy with Toby’s arrangement.
“This way, please.” The waiter then urged them to follow her.
Without saying anything, Toby took Sonia’s hand and followed the waiter.
When the three reached the second floor, the waiter opened the door to the best private room for Toby and Sonia.
As the couple followed the waiter into the room, the door of a room on the opposite side suddenly opened. Then, Rina came out with an uncomfortable expression, just in time to see Sonia and Toby’s silhouettes.
Rina opened her eyes wide immediately and was stunned.
Is that President Fuller and Miss Reed?
Although I can’t see their faces, I can immediately recognize their familiar backs.
It must be them who entered the opposite room!
Rina tightly clenched her hands and her face was paler than before.
She never expected to see Toby and Sonia. Initially, Rina was making her way to the washroom to discreetly vomit out the disgusting Norfolkian cuisine.
Are they here for the Norfolkian cuisine?
Of course. This is a restaurant selling Norfolkian cuisine, after all. There are no other things to do in a restaurant.
However, I don’t understand why they come here for the unpalatable cuisine.
Rina didn’t care about Toby.
However, she paid attention to Sonia.
Julia was a Norfolkian. Even after her marriage, she still enjoyed Norfolkian cuisine, so she would go to Norfolk or this restaurant once in a while for a Norfolk meal.
The reason why Rina appeared here was to accompany her parents to eat Norfolkian cuisine. This was her first time consuming it, but she hated it. To act like Julia’s daughter, Rina lied that she loved Norfolkian cuisine and inherited Julia’s taste. As expected, it made Julia happy.
However, Rina secretly hated this kind of food. In order to avoid exposing her lies, however, she swallowed every bite despite the nausea that threatened to overcome. If she couldn’t take it anymore, she would go to the washroom to vomit it out. This was her second time going to the washroom.
Unexpectedly, Rina saw Toby and Sonia as soon as she came out.
I don’t know about Toby, but it is evident that Sonia inherited Julia’s taste.
Moreover, Julia and Titus are in this restaurant too. Our room is just opposite Sonia’s room, so there is a big chance that they will meet each other.
If my parents meet Sonia and know she loves Norfolkian cuisine, will they doubt her identity again?
There’s a lot of evidence that Sonia is the actual Rina Gray.
Last time, when Julia and Titus returned from buying a blueberry cake, Julia said Sonia had a scar on her wrist.
God knows that when I heard this, I was terrified, fearing that Sonia would tell them the scar was from the red mole removal surgery.
Fortunately, Sonia didn’t say anything as she dislikes them. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to keep my fake identity as Rina Gray.
I must not allow them to meet Sonia, especially not in the place where Julia and Sonia share the same taste. Otherwise, Julia and Titus will make a connection.
The only problem is, how can I stop them from meeting each other?
This is a restaurant, after all. How can I predict when Sonia and Toby will come out of the room?
As Rina gritted her teeth and panicked, Julia’s puzzled voice came from behind. “Rina, why are you standing there? Aren’t you going to the washroom?”
Hearing Julia’s words, Rina forced a smile and turned back. “It’s nothing. I’ll go now.”
After that, Rina closed the door and walked to the washroom.
Sonia might not come out soon because she has just entered the room.
Titus and Julia also went to the washroom earlier, so they won’t leave the room again.
So, it should be safe to vomit in the washroom.
In the Gray Family’s room, Julia looked at the closed door, feeling worried. “Hubby, do you think that Rina has been strange lately? It seems that she is nervous and worried about something. However, she didn’t tell me about it.”
Titus took a sip of pickle soup and nodded. “I agree, but you know how unpredictable the youths can be. I don’t think we should worry about it.”
“I understand. However, Sharon said Rina is often plagued by a nightmare. She will mutter that she is the real Rina, not a fake. What do you think is going on?” Julia put down her spoon and looked at Titus.
