Chapter 1077
Toby didn't argue against Charles' statement—deep down, he clearly believed what Charles had said. However, Charles' words reminded Toby of something that he hadn't paid much attention to in the past. Now that I hear what Charles said, it seems like a possibility. Toby shut his eyes as he tried his best to contain his anger. When he next opened his eyes, his gaze had turned much darker than before.
Everyone in the room knew that Toby wasn't going to take the situation lightly. He simply concealed all of his emotions beneath his cold and empty gaze. "I got it. I'll deal with this." Toby let go of Sonia's face as he responded to Charles.
"Well, don't disappoint us," Charles uttered with a shrug. Toby ignored the other man and was about to speak to Sonia when his phone rang again. Ever since he ended the call earlier, he had left his phone on Sonia's desk. So, once it started ringing, everyone could see who the call was from. It was from Tom. This time, Toby showed no intention of ignoring the call. "What is it?" he asked as he placed the phone against his ear.
"President Fuller." Tom's voice came from the other end of the line. "Mr. Lore just called me a while ago and said he couldn't get to you. But, he wanted to know your whereabouts and whether you were occupied."
Toby's face remained blank after hearing Tom's words. Toby had clearly expected the Lore Family to contact Tom after they failed to contact him. "Well? How did you respond to him?" Toby asked as he narrowed his eyes. Through their call, Tom could tell from Toby's voice that Toby wasn't fond of the Lore Family. "I told him that I didn't know where you were. I explained that I'm not the only assistant and that I don't always know your whereabouts," Tom answered hastily.
Toby nodded. "Go on."
"I don't think Mr. Lore believed what I said, but he no longer tried asking about you since he knew that he couldn’t get anything from me. Regardless, he indirectly asked me about your responses to the incident online and your views on it," Tom added.
"Ignore him." There wasn't a hint of emotion on Toby's face.
Tom pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose as he replied. "I know what you mean, President Fuller. So, I simply responded with a few vague sentences just to get him off the call. He eventually ended the call with a rather annoyed tone, so I believe that he'll try to contact you again," Tom explained.
"I got it." Toby nodded. After that, he took a look at the woman who was sitting in front of him. "You don't have to care about the Lore Family for now. I'll deal with it in the future. But, for now, I need you to handle the ghostwriters and fake business accounts online. You'll also need to deal with Titus and Connor," he ordered.
"I've already sent someone to deal with Squirrel Media, and they should be in the midst of discussing some matters acquiring Squirrel Media. We managed to acquire their company this afternoon, but the workers in Squirrel Media... Except for that secretary that Sonia mentioned..." Tom replied.
"We'll have to do a background check on all workers. I want all the people involved or interested in this matter, and all the individuals who had ever produced fake news, to be fired instantly." Toby's short statement had probably turned thousands of people jobless.
