Madam Escaped Again Sir

Chapter 1385

It was the first time the netizens had seen such generosity, and there were even rumors that he had used the money from his personal account and not the company. This went to show how wealthy he was; spending 30 million on netizens just because he could.

They were not the first who spent 30 million on benefits for Internet users, though.

Every year during the new year, the companies funding major websites would do this, but these companies used the money from the companies' accounts, unlike Toby who used his personal account.

Even though they said there were 30 million for grabs, that was just some vouchers, coupons, and other miscellaneous items. For one to receive cash, even if it was a negligible amount, was considered lucky.

The most ridiculous part was, there weren't even 30 million, to begin with. The 30-million claim was nothing but publicity.

Toby was the first of his kind to fork out 30 million.

Now, he was again giving away so much money for everyone's entertainment, and his popularity soared all of a sudden to its peak. All the other leading influencers were nothing compared to him and he undisputedly became the title holder of 'Perfect Husband.'

Reading through the comments sections, Sonia kept laughing at the netizens who called Toby their husband. "Are you happy?" She showed her cell phone to him. "You're the husband of so many."

An unpleasant, gloomy look was on his handsome face. "No, I'm not their husband," he said, taking the phone from her. Then, he made another post, asking the netizens not to call him their husband because he was only Sonia's husband.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

In response, the netizens laughed at him and asked whether he was having shortness of breath from the anger.

However, they were joking harmlessly, and Toby wasn't really mad, either. He simply told them again not to call him that because he didn't like that title, and the netizens agreed to his request nicely. Ultimately, they were worried about him withdrawing the benefits if they made him mad.

When they stopped addressing him as their husband, the look on his face turned normal again and he called Tom to organize a lucky draw event for them with all expenses to be paid from his private account.

Soon, Tom's side came up with the lucky draw links, and the netizens stopped commenting on Toby's comment section. The second the links were shared, all of them moved to the official page of Fuller Group to participate in the lucky draw.

As for the rest, Toby stopped caring about it and set the phone aside, but he had just placed down his phone when Sonia's phone started ringing instead.

Taking a look, he saw that it was Grace calling, and he reckoned she was calling to ask about Sonia's pregnancy. However, the one who picked up the call was Toby, not Sonia.

Toby made it compulsory for her to have less contact with electronic devices. Although the radiation wasn't high, he didn't want her to be in any contact with radiation because her body was very weak now.

Out of wits, Sonia could only let him be. She felt so loved and cherished when she saw how he cared about her and wouldn't be mad at him over it.

Sure enough, after Toby picked up the call, Grace immediately asked him about Sonia's pregnancy, how she was feeling, how was the child doing, and such.

Patiently, Toby answered all her questions. Besides keeping from her about how weak Sonia was right now, he answered every other question carefully.

He acted under Sonia's instructions because she didn't want to cause Grace any worry. Otherwise, given Grace's personality, she would make frequent visits.

As Sonia didn't want to cause her too much trouble, she thought that she should hide some things if needed. After all, there were already enough people worried about her.

After Grace found out from Toby that both Sonia and the baby were doing well, she breathed in relief. Before hanging up, she advised him to take good care of Sonia and mentioned that she would visit her when she was free.

He had yet to place down her phone when it started ringing again. This time, it was Sonia's grandfather, Leonard, who was calling.

As a leading archeologist, Leonard worked at the ancient tombs in the deep forests, and very rarely could he be contacted.

Otherwise, when Sonia remarried, she would have given him a call directly instead of sending a text because she knew that even if she called him, he might not receive it.

So, she didn't tell him about her pregnancy and only told him that she was married.

Much to her surprise, Leonard took the initiative to call her when news of her pregnancy got out, and this time, Toby didn't pick up the call and let Sonia do it instead.

He knew that she had been missing her only kin, and he allowed her to take the call despite the concern about radiation.

As it turned out, Leonard didn't know about her marriage or pregnancy. It was his assistant who accidentally saw the news on the Internet during his break time. After seeing this news, he thought that Leonard should know about this as he was her only living relative. Thus, he drove into the mountains and told Leonard, who then called her from a satellite phone.

The second Sonia heard his voice, tears welled up in her eyes and her voice choked, especially when she heard him apologizing for neglecting her for the past few months. Bittersweet feelings overwhelmed her heart and tears poured down her face.

Heartbroken to see her cry, Toby took over the phone and conversation.

Speaking of which, it was the first time Toby spoke to Leonard.

Old-fashioned and strict, Leonard was an old man who would only appear pleasant when he was with Sonia, but not Toby, his grandson-in-law.

That was made worse by the fact that Toby had hurt Sonia in the past, and his attitude toward Toby wasn't the best. Leonard was talking to him like he was a stranger, but that didn't bother Toby, and neither was he mad at it because he knew that any elder couldn't ignore the mean things he did before.

So, he was extremely patient and listened humbly to Leonard's lecture.

Perhaps it was because of this attitude that Leonard treated him a little better afterward, especially when he heard that Toby was now in the hospital taking care of Sonia. As a result of that, Leonard became even friendlier.

Well, he had to be nice to Toby because he wasn't by Sonia's side and Toby was the one whom he could rely on to take care of her. If he wasn't nice to Toby, Toby might be mean to Sonia!

As Toby had set the call to loudspeaker mode, Sonia could tell what the change in Leonard's attitude meant, and that upset her even more.

In this world, only her kin would set aside his dignity for her.

After ending the call with Leonard, Toby glanced at her bloodshot eyes and passed two pieces of tissues to her. "Don't cry. I'll bring you to visit your grandfather if you miss him in the future. We can visit if we pull some connections."

Taking the tissues from him, she then wiped the corners of her eyes. "We'll see. I just haven't heard his voice for ages and can't hold back because I'm a little sad and happy at the same time."

"It's okay." Toby took her into his arms. "Your grandfather said that he'll apply for leave and visit you once you're about to give birth. With your kin by your side, you can give birth with peace of mind."

"I know. I heard everything." Sonia sniffled. "And I'm very happy because it's true that I haven't seen him in a long time."

"Soon, soon. Just a few more months and you can see him again." Planting a kiss on the top of her head, he added, "He even said that he'll bring a present for you."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it," she admitted with a smile.

While they were chatting, the phone rang again, and it was Charles this time.

Immediately, Toby's face turned dark, and he grumbled with a frown, "Why is this guy calling?"

Chuckling softly, Sonia said, "What else but to ask about my pregnancy?"
