Chapter 165,Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again!
Upon hearing that the sounds of the footsteps were drawing nearer, the person outside the office looked around and turned around immediately. With quick steps, he darted toward the emergency staircase. After waiting for a couple of minutes, he heard the elevator doors closing, then he sneaked out of the emergency staircase. He stole a glance at Sonia’s office, whisked out his cell phone and made a call. At Fuller Group, Tom was sorting out the documents on Toby’s desk when his cell phone rang. Stopping the work in his hands, he then said to Toby, “President Fuller, I’m going to pick up a call.”
Toby was typing something on his computer, and when he heard him, he grunted his approval without lifting his head. With the permission given, Tom took out his cell phone, and his eyes sparkled when he saw the caller ID. “President Fuller, it’s Cooper.” “Who?” Toby asked with a frown, not realizing whom he meant. “That’s the assistant we bribed in Paradigm the last time,” Tom reminded him. “He’s always sending documents to Miss Reed’s office. That’s why we decided to bribe him so that he would look out for news about the child Miss Reed is pregnant with.

He hasn’t called us previously, but he must be calling now because he has news about Miss Reed’s pregnancy.” Upon hearing that, Toby jerked his head up. “Answer it,” he ordered without hiding the urgency in his voice. “Alright,” Tom said and picked up the call. “Hello, Mr. Brown.” Cooper greeted Tom politely over the phone. While waving his hand, Tom answered, “Alright, tell me quickly. Do you have news regarding Miss Reed’s pregnancy?”

“Your guess is right. Earlier when I went over to deliver some documents, I overheard President Reed and President Lane speaking about the pregnancy again.” Tom pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose as he turned to Toby. “Looks like President Lane already found out about Miss Reed’s pregnancy.” Toby pursed his lips and said, “Ask him if he heard whether the child belongs to Charles.” Tom nodded and passed the message. On the other end, Cooper answered very quickly, “It’s not President Lane’s child. I heard President Reed saying that the child belongs to a man she accidentally slept with on that night of President Lane’s birthday party.”

Immediately, Tom passed the information to Toby, whose pupils shrank at the news. A huge wave crashed over his heart. It’s mine! The baby in Sonia’s womb is my child! He tightened his fists. Perhaps the news was so shocking to him that his fists were trembling from him holding it so tightly. Upon seeing that, Tom understood the situation and he gulped. Suppressing the shock inside him, he said into the phone, “I got it. From now on, you don’t—” “No, let him continue.” Toby interrupted him in a hoarse voice. “Let him keep an eye out. On top of that, have him watch her keenly.

It will be best if he can find out her checkup appointment timings and the hospital she goes to. I’ll double his payout.” Tom nodded and answered, “Understood.” Then, he told Cooper about Toby’s offer, which made Cooper so happy that he tapped his chest and assured them that he wouldn’t let them down. After hanging up the call, Tom turned to Toby. “President Fuller, does the child in Miss Reed belong to you?” Lowering his eyes, Toby uttered, “Yeah.”

“What do you plan to do? Do you want to keep it or…” “I’m not the one who can decide on that, but Sonia. If she wants to keep it, I’ll have everything arranged for her in the dark so that she can deliver the baby safely. If she doesn’t want to keep it, I’ll respect her decision as well,” Toby answered. However, when he was saying “if she doesn’t want to keep it”, he felt a pain that pierced his chest, and he felt somewhat panicky. “It makes sense now why you want Cooper to find out her checkup timings and the hospital she goes to. So that’s why.” Finally, Tom understood the reason behind Toby’s efforts.

Toby merely pursed his lips and didn’t say a thing while Tom glanced at Tina’s picture next to the computer. He looked as though he had something to say, but managed to stop himself in time. Toby caught that, so he narrowed his eyes and told Tom, “Just speak your mind.” “Actually, I just want to say that if Miss Reed decides to keep the baby, then in the case that Miss Gray and her family find out about it, will they…” Tom trailed off, looking worried. Based on his knowledge of Tina and her family’s petty personalities, they would definitely not allow the child in Sonia’s womb to live.
