Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 1065

Chapter 1065

Toby noticed Sonia's little movements before joy flashed across his eyes. Then, he pulled his phone away from his ears and put it on the loudspeaker.

When she heard that his call was amplified, she knew that the man had found out she was eavesdropping, and she was immediately embarrassed.

She felt that she was acting like a thief.

However, it was a good thing that he noticed. Now, she didn't have to continue eavesdropping, nor did she have to worry about not being able to hear the conversation.

As she thought of this, Sonia straightened her body that was leaning to the side.

After all, now that Toby had turned on the loudspeaker for her to listen in, she didn't have to try so hard to eavesdrop since it was tiring.

On the other end of the phone, Tom had no idea what was happening on Toby's side. After hearing Toby's question, Tom smiled and replied, "That idiot is really a coward. When I first went to look for him, I thought that he would put up a fight. Yet, as soon as I took out my wrench, the man dropped to his knees and confessed everything. President Fuller, it seems like the news of how you like to pull people's teeth is well known in the circle."

Toby remained expressionless, but this took Sonia by surprise. "What? Pull people's teeth?"

However, Charles, who was on the side, didn't have a reaction. When he heard her exclamation, he lowered the volume of her game a little before raising his head to explain, "Do you not know about that, Sonny? Pulling out teeth is one of the punishments this guy does to some people in the circle."

He freed one hand and pointed at Toby.

Toby glanced at him lightly but did not refute. This was seen as a sign that Charles was right.

She took a gulp of water and looked at him. "What is Charles saying? Can you elaborate?"

Toby raised his chin. "You know very well that in my current position, I will naturally have a lot of enemies. Many people are jealous of me and want to pull the Fuller Group or me down. Therefore, these people will either try to plant moles in the Fuller Group or secretly plot against me. I can't go too lightly against these people. Instead, I need to be ruthless. So, over time, I began to revert to a few common means to deal with them. Pulling their teeth is one of them. But that is just to deal with those hard- mouthed people. It's not something I always do."

"I see." Sonia nodded suddenly. "You never told me about this."

Then, he clenched his fist and placed it against his lips before letting out a light cough. "If I told you these, I'm afraid I'll scare you away, and you'll think I'm barbarous."

"I won't." Sonia smiled and shook her head. "Being in such a high position, you'd face all sorts of danger. If you don't use some ruthless means to deal with them, you wouldn't be able to protect yourself, your family, or the company. So, it is understandable for you to do this. You also don't have to worry about my thoughts of how barbarous you know. Although I am soft-hearted, I am still reasonable. I know when to be cruel and when to be empathetic."

Wouldn't she be considered a saint if she was always empathetic and kind?

A saint was also often more likely to attract enemies and hurt the people around her.

After hearing Sonia's words, Toby glanced at her and smiled. "I'm glad you can think that way."

However, she shot him an angry look. "All right now, hurry up and answer Tom."

On the other end of the phone, Tom heard what she said, waved his hand, and quickly said, "It's okay, Miss Reed. You and President Fuller can take your time. I can wait. You don't have to feel like you're dragging my time."

Tom was afraid that Toby did not want to talk to him and that Toby wanted to hang up the phone to focus on talking to Sonia.

Yet, she was pushing for him to talk to Tom, and this would definitely rile Toby up.

Wouldn't this just set Tom up for a scolding?

"How can we keep you waiting? Wouldn't it be better if you get this over with so you can do something else?" Sonia smiled at Toby's phone before tugging him, motioning him to go back on the call with Tom.

Toby pursed his thin lips, obviously reluctant. Yet, he didn't want to oppose her as well, so he turned to his phone. "Even if he has confessed, we can't let him off the hook so easily."

When Tom heard the coldness in Toby's voice, he smiled bitterly. Well, it seems like President Fuller is unhappy. Forget it. He is my boss at the end of the day. If my boss is angry, I'd have to endure it. Otherwise, I'd be too embarrassed to receive such a high salary and the 0.2% share dividend.

"What do you mean, President Fuller?" Tom asked as he nudged his glasses.

Toby did not answer immediately. Instead, he glanced at Sonia.
