Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again

Chapter 1460

Chapter 1460 Toby’s Complacency

It was awkward for Sonia as well as for Mary. "I'm sorry, Old Mrs. Fuller, but I haven't. It seems that both Young Mistress Sonia and I have forgotten about it because we were too excited and wanted to deliver you the great news first. We didn't think of Young Master Toby right away," Mary admitted cautiously.

"Yeah, Grandma." Sonia tried to get away by sticking her tongue out.

"Very well!" Rose couldn't contain her laughter. "This shows that I still hold a more important place in your hearts than Toby."

"That's right! Grandma is my favorite." Sonia wrapped her arm over her and placed her head on Rose's shoulder.

"Alright, now that you have finally thought of him, do inform him ASAP. He is the father of the children. He shouldn't be the last to know about this," Rose advised as she lightly patted Sonia on the back.

Even though he wasn't the first to know about the news, he should at least be the second.

Sonia understood where Rose was coming from, so she nodded in agreement.

"Young Mistress, it's connecting." Mary handed her the phone.

"Thank you, Madam Mary." Sonia took the phone with a smile and checked the screen, only to see that Toby had not picked up the call.

All of a sudden, Sonia remembered something and went, "By the way, Grandma, would we be bothering Toby at this time as it's still nighttime abroad? Shouldn't he still be sleeping now?" Sonia asked, gazing at Rose and others.

Don't wanna disturb his sleep, do we?

Everyone was quiet for a little moment after she said that; clearly, they had forgotten about the time zone difference.

"It's fine. This is celebratory news! What's the harm in keeping him from that little bit of sleep? He's still a young man; some lack of sleep is fine," Rose brushed it off indifferently.

"Yeah, Young Mistress Sonia. You should just call him. He won't blame you for calling him. You're his favorite person," Mary agreed with Rose.

Sonia smiled as she placed the phone to her ear. Well, since Toby's grandmother said so.

"Hello..." A husky and gruff voice of a man came from the other end of the phone. It was clear that the drowsy man was awoken abruptly and that he had picked up the call abruptly without checking who the caller was. "Is this Tim?"

"It's me, honey." Sonia smiled as she answered the phone with both hands.

Toby was taken aback for a moment by the voice at first, and then he promptly opened his eyes. Putting up with the brightness of the screen, he checked and confirmed that it was Sonia on the line.

He was now awakened. He rose in bed and turned on the bedside lamp, then leaned against the nightstand. "Why are you calling me at this hour, darling? Is there something wrong?" He sounded worried.

It was awkward for Sonia as well as for Mary. "I'm sorry, Old Mrs. Fuller, but I haven't. It seems that both Young Mistress Sonia and I have forgotten about it because we were too excited and wanted to deliver you the great news first. We didn't think of Young Master Toby right away," Mary admitted cautiously.

He knew her well enough to know that she was never the one to call him during his breaks.

He had been here for two days and never once did Sonia call when it was midnight for him, so he was worried that something terrible had happened to her.

Sonia could hear the worry and anxiety in his tone on the other end of the phone which made her heart warm. She replied with a grin, "No, nothing's wrong. I'm fine! I'm calling at this time to deliver you some good news."

"What good news?" Toby exhaled a sigh of relief after hearing that everything was alright and proceeded to lean on the head of the bed while smiling and rubbing his temples.

He appeared ecstatic about the wonderful news that was going to be shared. It must have been a shocking piece of news that she had to call in the middle of the night.

"The wonderful news is... you're going to be a dad!" Sonia rolled her eyes and made a valiant effort to keep him perplexed.

When everyone next to her heard what she said, they all chuckled.

Rose even nodded her forehead in a doting way, saying, "You naughty girl."

"Hey, is that Grandma? I think I heard Grandma's voice," Toby asked, his eyebrows shot up.

"Yeah, it's Grandma. She came to visit me today, and she asked me to call to tell you the good news. Are you happy to be a father, honey?" Holding down her laughs, Sonia questioned.

"Didn't I already know this three months ago?" The corner of Toby's mouth twitched. "Why is it that you're saying this again?"

Toby pondered whether she intentionally made this call to tease him in light of Grandma and others' laughter earlier.

"Well, that was three months ago; we should be focusing on the present, honey. What I'm saying is that you're going to be the father of another child!" Sonia chuckled.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Toby couldn't comprehend it. Confusion was written all over his face.

He thought that was odd.

"Alright, honey, I won't tease you anymore. I just want to inform you that I have not one but two babies in my tummy!" Sonia's shoulders were shaking from the laughter.

"What? Two babies?" Toby was taken aback, thinking he had misheard.

"Yes, hubby, I'm expecting twins. Are you happy?" Sonia asked eagerly.

Toby was stunned by her words. Thus, he sat still for a long time in a daze.

He returned to his senses after a while only when he heard Sonia calling his name on the phone again. His voice was quivering. "You mean you're having twins, honey? Is it true that you're expecting two children?"

"That's exactly what I'm saying! I am expecting twins," Sonia affirmed with a nod.

"How could this be?" Toby frowned in puzzlement. "Wasn't it just one child? How did they become twins? Did the baby split in half?"

Such a thought occurred to him.

Rose and the others happened to hear him because the phone call was on loudspeaker.

Mary and Rosie exchanged delighted glances.

Everyone else was laughing except for Rose, who showed a displeased face. "What nonsense are you sprouting, brat? Do you not understand biology despite having a few doctoral degrees?"

Toby's mouth twitched as he heard his grandma's nasty remarks. "Grandma, I was just joking. Don't be angry."

Rose scoffed. "It's not that the first baby was split into two, but there are already two babies. It's just that one embryo started growing first, while the second embryo was still incubating. The second embryo development is two months behind schedule. It has only now begun to develop and hence detected by the ultrasound."

Toby finally understood it after hearing his grandmother's explanation and nodded in agreement, saying, "I see. I get it now."

Rose chuckled with delight. "The Fuller family has never had twins. Sonny's the first woman in the family to bring such happy news. You are certainly a lucky star for our family."

"You flatter me, Grandma." Sonia's cheeks reddened as she was a little embarrassed by Rose's praise.

"Oh, Sonny, it's the truth. We are so grateful for you!" The older lady gave her a lovely and gracious grin.

Toby, on the other end of the phone, felt funny.

Hey, I made that two children, too. Why doesn't Grandma give me some credit? Little Leaf will not be unable to conceive the twins without me. Wow! I can't believe we're having twins. I actually made Little Leaf conceive twins!

He leaped out of bed and walked to the bathroom, where he stood in front of the mirror and thoroughly examined himself.

A grin crept on his face as he did, and his grin couldn't hide his complacency and pride.

"You're phenomenal!" Toby propped his hands on both sides of the sink, stared in the mirror deeply, and praised himself.

You not only got Sonia pregnant, but you also got her pregnant with two children. How many men in the world can do that?

Toby stared at himself proudly in the mirror for a little while before returning to the room and taking up the phone that still had the call connected. "Honey, are you still there?"
