Chapter 1032
He wouldn't push the woman he loves away otherwise. I think I should stop being on guard around him now.
"So how are you gonna reward them?" Sonia asked curiously, holding his hand.
He patted her head. "That'll be my business. Don't worry. I'm not gonna be stingy on this."
Sonia rolled her eyes. "Never said you would. You're rich. I don't think you'd be a scrooge about this."
Toby smiled. "I should feel happy that you think so highly of me."
"You should." She grinned.
Toby flicked her forehead. "Right. The rewards are settled, so now's the time for punishment."
"Wait, punishment?" Sonia froze, and she looked at him in confusion. "Who's getting punished?" Toby didn't answer. Instead he gazed at her, and her heart sank. What? "Wait. Are you saying it's me?" She pointed at herself.
Toby didn't give her a straight answer. "I'm upset that you hid things from me, so a punishment is in order. You're spending the night with me," he whispered the last part into her ear and nibbled on her earlobe. Toby made it sound beguiling on purpose.
Sonia shivered. She understood very well what he meant by 'spending the night with me'. Darn it. She blushed. "You really know how to work the system. You just have to get all the rewards you can, huh?"
Toby chuckled. "Let's go then." He bent over and carried her in his arms, then they went to the room.
Sonia gasped in surprise. "Let me go. We haven't finished dinner yet."
"It's fine. We're almost done anyway."
"I see. Stay back at the company once you're done. Get to work in the afternoon tomorrow."
Tom stopped massaging his forehead for a moment. He thought he was hearing things. I can start work in the afternoon? Is he serious? Is he finally starting to care for his poor little assistant? "Thank you very much, sir." Tom's face was red with excitement.
Toby pursed his lips. "But you'll have to do one little errand before that."
Tom's smile froze, and it was replaced by a sneer. I knew it. Well, but I'm used to it. It's not every day I get to start work in the afternoon. I'll take the offer. "Sure, sir. What do you need?" He was smiling, but he was cursing silently too.
Toby sipped some tea. "If I'm right, Bank of Caruna's Seafield branch needs a lot of cash, don't they?"
Tom wondered why he asked, but he nodded. "Yeah. Their main bank took 70% of their liquid assets, so they need a lot of cash now. Brian's trying to get a lot of company bosses to put their money in the Bank of Caruna instead of stashing them overseas. If his branch can't meet its target and starts having cash flow problems, he'll be fired."
