Chapter 558 Accidental Kiss
While Sonia was deep in her thoughts, Jessica opened her mouth to speak again.
She rested her head on the man’s shoulder and responded in a sickly sweet voice, “I know you’re good to me. Wait for me; once I have the family property in my name, you’ll leave your fiancée and marry me, right?”
“We’ll see about that when you’ve successfully snatched the property first.” The man then started to play with her hair.
Sonia’s dark expression turned a shade deeper than charcoal. Oh, so she wants to snatch the family property now!
6 years ago, Jessica had already taken everything from the Reed Family and caused their father’s suicide. Sonia wasn’t even done with her revenge for those actions, but Jessica was now plotting to snatch the recently growing Paradigm Co. In your dreams!
Toby removed his hand from Sonia’s waist and rubbed her eyebrows instead. Then, he quietly advised, “Don’t frown so much. You don’t look pretty when you frown.”
“I don’t give a damn!” Sonia retorted.
Even though she had said something like that, her body was compliant and her frown gradually disappeared.
Toby could only smile.
He had no idea when she picked up her stubborn habit, but she still looked cute regardless.
It was especially so whenever she threw tantrums with her flushed face. He had wanted to rub her cheeks so badly and imagined that they would be soft and squishy.
Now that he thought about it, Toby looked at Sonia with an even darker expression and he swallowed a little, as if trying to hide something from her.
Sonia didn’t notice his change in behavior as her entire focus was on the couple on the other side of the door.
At that moment, Jessica was replying to the man. “Don’t worry, I’ll head home in two months’ time when I’ve settled everything and fight with that half-sister of mine. I heard that she’s the biggest shareholder in Paradigm Co. and since we share the same father, half of her shares should be mine too.”
“Haha! Sure, I’ll await your good news.” He laughed before he raised her chin and planted a kiss on her lips.
Jessica was impatient and didn’t have much shame either, for when the man raised her chin, she reached out with her arms and wrapped them around his neck before she passionately returned the kiss.
Their passion resembled the wildfire whereby they kissed ever so noisily.
The man pressed Jessica against the door.
As her back bumped into the door, the force had traveled past and into Sonia’s back.
Then, the sudden force had caused Sonia to fall forward.
Sonia was already in Toby’s arms; so, when the door relayed the force from the couple in heat, it had completely destroyed the distance between Sonia and Toby.
She could even feel her breasts being squished by Toby’s chest.
Sonia’s face immediately blushed in the shade of red, as if she would bleed out at any moment. She lowered her head as much as she could and lacked the courage to look at Toby.
He wasn’t dumb either as he could more or less identify the soft substance on his chest, after which he lowered his gaze to look at the woman in his arms.
However, the woman had bowed her head, so he couldn’t see her face. Only her dark hair and bright red ears greeted him, but it was enough for him to know what her expression was.
As he gave it a thought, Toby’s thin lips curved into a smile and the look in his eyes darkened even more.
At this moment, the couple on the other side of the door seemed to have arrived at a major stage of their session when Jessica suddenly let out an ecstatic shout.
Sonia then felt the door ram against her back; the force was so large that it violently shook her back to the point where her soul almost left her body and she raised her head in terror.
And this simple movement was enough for her to brush her red lips against Toby’s thin ones.
Since Toby had lowered his head to gaze at her, their lips touched when Sonia looked up.
Her eyes widened in bewilderment.
He was also a little shocked, for he never thought that things would arrive at such a stage, but he was glad that it did.
Now that Toby’s eyes shimmered, he came to his senses and snaked his hand behind Sonia’s head. Before she could even comprehend the situation, he had already parted her teeth and deepened their accidental kiss.
It was a moment later when Sonia finally recovered from her shock. There was a troubled look in her eyes as she pushed Toby away.
When he noticed her movement, he broke the kiss and leaned into her ear to say, “Don’t move, or they’ll discover us.”
Sonia immediately calmed down and stopped moving after his reminder.
Toby didn’t continue the kiss either.
He could seize the opportunity when she was distracted earlier to kiss those red lips he had always dreamed of, but now that she was aware of it, he couldn’t continue.
Otherwise, she would be annoyed with him.
He was already grateful enough for an accident like this.
Toby raised his hand and wiped away the moisture at the corner of Sonia’s mouth with his thumb.
When Sonia realized what he was doing, she quickly turned her head to the side to stop him from continuing. Instead, she reached up to wipe her mouth herself.
The moment he saw Sonia’s red face and irritated movements, Toby chuckled and lowered his hand.
On the other side of the door, the couple had already calmed down and the door no longer shook so much that it bumped into Sonia.
She could finally sigh in relief and back away a little to create more distance between her and Toby.
Even though she was still in his arms, at least their bodies weren’t squeezed together in that awkward position anymore.
“Mr. Lazuli, you’re amazing, but it hurt me so much.” Jessica leaned against the man in labored breaths after the ordeal. Then, she looked at him with narrowed eyes.
The man was elated to hear her words and he felt so powerful that he laughed aloud.
When Toby heard the wretched couple’s conversation, he had a look of disdain in his eyes. That’s amazing? It was over within a few minutes. He’s obviously lacking in that department.
Suddenly, a ringtone sounded in the air.
Sonia had the shock of her life when she thought it was hers and she quickly whipped out her phone to check.
When she saw that the screen on her phone had still displayed the recording interface, she relaxed. Then, the man’s voice sounded from behind the door as he said, “Alright, I’ll be back soon.”
With that, the man kept his phone away and thereafter pinched Jessica’s cheek. “Okat, it’s almost time for the session where the couple gives their speech. My parents have just notified me to prepare for it, so let’s leave. If someone comes to look for me and catches us together, we’ll be in trouble.”
“All right.” A reluctant Jessica nodded.
Soon, the two left their secret place of passion and walked in the direction where they came from.
When Sonia heard the sound of their footsteps becoming faint before it eventually disappeared, she finally relaxed her tense body and sighed in relief.
Then, she quickly took two steps backward to get away from Toby.
Upon seeing how she had avoided him like the plague, Toby pursed his thin lips. “I’m sorry for my actions earlier.”
Sonia froze before she glared at him. “Right, as you should! I can’t believe you’re so shameless that you’d sneak in like that!”
When she thought about that kiss moments ago, her face reddened again.
When Jessica and Mr. Lazuli had been bearing on them earlier, Toby knew that Sonia was blushing, but he didn’t catch a glimpse of her face.
Now that he did, he realized how beautiful she was.
Toby lowered his gaze to hide the darkness in his eyes before he said in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t do it on purpose. Will Lazuli and that woman were doing such things and it can affect people with such ease. Also, since you were in my arms, I couldn’t help it.”
“Y-You’re just making up excuses!” Sonia pointed at him with a shaky finger.
