This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 839

Underestimated Their Relationship

Sonia had seen that sentence on the Internet and it now flashed across her mind again, as she found it
very apt for the current situation between her and Toby.

Of course, Sonia knew that Toby’s current state was not an attempt to seduce her, but merely a result
of the spicy food he had just eaten.

Toby could not tolerate spice at all. Just a little bit was enough to make him suffer, and this was an
alarmingly spicy dish. Thus, Toby’s present state made it abundantly clear that he was really suffering
from the spiciness this time. Otherwise, he would never look this vulnerable.

After all, Toby was always the picture of handsome masculinity. No one had ever seen such a fragile
side of him. He looked as if he had been deeply hurt by someone.

Toby continued to be tortured by the spice, and Sonia quickly came back to her senses as she stopped
herself from admiring his attractiveness. She briskly poured a glass of water and even got up to grab a
few pieces of ice from the freezer.

“Here, have some iced water and you’ll feel better.” Once Sonia added the ice, she swiftly headed back
to the couch and handed Toby the glass.

Toby removed the hand that was covering his reddened eyes which were beginning to water. He
glanced at Sonia before reaching out for the glass of iced water and readily taking several large gulps.

His Adam’s apple bobbed with each gulp, and Sonia’s lips parted slightly. How dearly she wished to
know how it would feel to touch it. But she knew that it was not the time to do such a thing. If she did it,
then it would mean that she was trying to seduce this man.

What if she really did manage to seduce him, and they ended up doing the deed right there and then?



No touching, no touching. Sonia warned herself as shook her head and tried to rid her mind of these
lustful thoughts. She moved her gaze back up to his face instead.

Once Toby had finished drinking, Sonia took the glass from him first before reaching out with a pair of
tissues to wipe the sweat off his forehead. “Are you okay now?”

Toby shook his head and answered hoarsely, “Yes, I feel a lot better now.”

His breathing was indeed a lot calmer.

Sonia tossed the tissues away as she chided, “Really now, you shouldn’t have taken a bite if you can’t
eat spicy food. Look at what happened to you just now…”

Just as she was speaking, she noticed how the spiciness had affected Toby. She could not help but
chuckle as she took in his reddish lips, flushed face, and reddened eyes, as well as his hair that had
gotten all sweaty.

When Toby heard her laughter, he raised his eyebrows. “What are you laughing at?”

Sonia tried to stifle her laughter by covering her mouth. “I’m laughing at you, of course! All it took was
one bite for you to become so drained, so isn’t it very funny?”

Toby pursed his lips but did not respond. He too did not expect to have such a low spice tolerance, and
that one mouthful was enough to cause him this much pain.

Sonia had also felt the spice, but she was not at all as affected as he was.

He was a man, yet he was not even comparable to a woman.

Sonia could see the self-doubt that was written all over Toby’s face, and once again, she chuckled as
she shook her head. “Alright, don’t think about it anymore. It’s normal for people to have different levels



of spice tolerance, and you just happen to be one of those who can’t eat spicy food. You don’t have to
doubt yourself like that. Why don’t you head to the washroom and wash your face? Oh, and remember
to tidy up your hair as well. You were sweating earlier and your hair’s all messed up now.”

She reached out and adjusted his collar as she spoke.

Toby hummed in acknowledgment. “Okay, I’ll do that. You should continue eating.”

Once he finished speaking, he stood up and headed for the washroom.

Sonia stared at the table of spicy food in front of her, and not a single one was without spice. She let
out another helpless laugh and commented, “Really now, if he couldn’t eat spicy food at all, then why
didn’t he order a few non-spicy dishes for himself?”

Toby was always considerate of her and made choices in accordance with her preferences. Was he not
afraid of spoiling her rotten?

She turned and looked toward the washroom before reaching for her cellphone to make a call.

“What would you like me to do, Miss Reed?” A woman’s respectful voice rang out.

Sonia took a sip of water and answered, “Order a few dishes from Executive Dining and bring them
over to me.”

She listed out a few non-spicy dishes that she knew Toby liked eating.

Executive Dining was a private restaurant in Paradigm Co. that catered exclusively to the executives in
the company. Although the chefs working there were not quite the same caliber as Michelin star chefs,
they were definitely still skilled enough to open their own restaurants.

At the very least, it was good enough for Toby to eat.



“Duly noted, Miss Reed. I will bring it over soon.” Sonia’s personal assistant noted down her request.

Sonia ended the call after a brief acknowledgment.

By this time, Toby had tidied himself up and exited the washroom.

When Sonia turned to look at him, she saw that his hair was now perfectly styled, and his clothes were
neatly arranged once more. Toby lost all signs of his previous vulnerability and had now resumed his
usual dignified manner that was aloof and reserved.

Of course, this was only if she ignored his still-reddish lips.

“All good?” Sonia asked with a smile.

Toby nodded lightly and resumed his seat.

However, Sonia quickly took his cutlery away from him. “Don’t eat any of this anymore. I’ve already
asked someone to deliver some non-spicy food over, and it’ll be here soon.”

“Okay.” Toby nodded in agreement. He really did not want to eat these dishes either, and he wished to
never experience the horrendous pain that he had just gone through earlier ever again.

“Next time, don’t just blindly order whatever that I like to eat. You should think about yourself as well.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to eat anything and it’ll just be a repeat of today,” Sonia started to lecture
him as she tucked into the food.

Toby chuckled and replied, “I’ll pay more attention next time.”

“That’s right.” Sonia nodded and soon had a cheeky smile on her face. “Oh well, your food isn’t here
yet. I guess you’ll have to just sit there and watch me eat.”



“Gladly.” Toby gestured toward the fish. “Not only will I watch you eat, but I can even pick out the bones
for you.”

Right after he spoke, he started checking every piece of fish for bones and picking each one out for
her.

Sonia’s heart grew warm as she observed Toby’s actions.

Therefore, while they were waiting for Toby’s food to arrive, Toby began to wait on Sonia as she ate.

When the personal assistant brought up the food, she happened to see Toby placing a piece of
deboned fish onto Sonia’s plate.

The personal assistant was shocked by the sight of Toby’s oil-stained fingers. After all, Toby’s hands
were usually fair and clean, as they were only used to sign documents.

All the employees knew that President Fuller was deeply in love with Miss Reed, and he would often
shower her with lots of affection.

But it was still rather unexpected to see how far President Fuller would go for Miss Reed. He did not
mind getting his hands covered in oil in order to pick out the bones for her. President Fuller did not
even have a frown on his face while doing so, instead, he had a faint smile that was full of warmth.

It was certain that President Fuller was doing it willingly, and it was not just a request from Miss Reed.

Their assumptions about the relationship initially made complete sense to them. Since President Fuller
was someone with such a high status, he would not easily deign to do such a thing for Miss Reed no
matter how much he loved her.

Furthermore, even for normal couples, a guy would not necessarily be willing to do this for his girlfriend,
let alone the almighty President Fuller that they all looked up to.



Still, what they assumed was impossible was exactly what was happening now. President Fuller was
not only deboning fish for Miss Reed, but he was also doing it willingly as he waited on Miss Reed.

It seemed like they had underestimated Miss Reed’s wiles, as well as the feelings that President Fuller
had for Miss Reed.

This couple was far more loving than they thought.

The personal assistant’s thoughts started straying to the future. It was likely that she would not feel
startled no matter how shocking President Fuller’s actions were in the future. After all, she had just
witnessed how President Fuller deboned fish for Miss Reed.

After giving Sonia an envious look, the personal assistant placed the food on the table and reported,
“Miss Reed, here is the food you requested.”
