Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 1236

Chapter 1136

Needless to say, Tom was able to tell that Sonia felt sympathetic toward Toby as he was happy for his boss. After all, it was a sign that Sonia was deeply in love with Toby. Why else would Miss Reed be so concerned about Mr. Fuller?

"Yeah, I'm shuddering at the thought of Mr. Fuller's reaction when I told him about that matter. Thankfully, Mr. Fuller was still rational enough to keep his impulse from getting the better of himself, or he would have killed Connor back there." Tom wiped his sweat and sighed.

In the meantime, Sonia could also feel her palms sweating. "Well, I bet the reason Connor had the guts to threaten Toby was because he had someone else bigger to back him up in the shadows. I wish we knew who that was."

"It doesn't matter who has Connor's back; he is eventually going to suffer defeat at our hands." He squinted.

Sonia smiled and replied, "You're right. No matter who is backing Connor from behind, evil can never prevail over good. However, his action of threatening Toby mustn't go unpunished. Did Toby say anything about our next move? What is it that Toby's mother left behind?"

Tom shook his head in confusion. "Well, Mr. Fuller hasn't said anything thus far, but I'm sure he must be bothered at the moment, which is why I have a feeling he isn't going to let things slide like that. As for the possession that Toby's late mother left behind, Connor hasn't revealed anything about it, so I have no idea what it is either. Nonetheless, if it's something Connor could use to threaten Mr. Fuller, coupled with the fact that other people are interested in it, I believe it must be something personal to Madam White when she was still alive."

He continued, "It might not necessarily be something valuable, and I don't think Connor would have been able to threaten Mr. Fuller with anything like that. After all, my boss is loaded with money, and losing something valuable is probably not going to upset him. Instead, if something precious falls into the wrong hands, it's going to land Mr. Fuller at a very disadvantageous position once it gets out."

Sonia nodded in response. "You're right. If it is really something personal that used to belong to Toby's late mother, we should probably get it back, or it's going to jeopardize Toby and the Fuller Family's reputation should it fall into the wrong hands."

"Exactly. Alas, I wish I could just read Mr. Fuller's mind now." Tom scratched his head. "I just don't have the courage to ask him what's on his mind."

"Don't worry about that. I got you. Just leave it to me." She gazed at him with a smile.

Tom was delighted. "Awesome, Miss Reed! I'll be counting on you, then."

"Sure thing." Sonia nodded.

As soon as the lady finished her words, a silhouette showed up right in front of the car near the duo. It turned out that Toby had returned, so She immediately winked at Tom and said, "Alright, we'll talk about that later. He's back."



In that instant, Tom quickly turned around and saw Toby walking in their direction. Thus, he gratefully smiled at Sonia as he opened the car door and let her into the vehicle before Toby.

Noticing the hard disc in the man's hand, Sonia asked rhetorically with a smile, "Bet you got what you needed, didn't you?"

Toby replied confidently, "Yeah."

"In that case, what are we waiting for? Let's go." She took a look at her watch.

"Sit tight. Let's hit the road now," Toby responded with an affirmative hum and ordered Tom to start driving. The next second, Tom replied affirmatively and started the engine.

They arrived at Paradigm Co. an hour later. Sonia planted a kiss on Toby's face and said goodbye to him before heading toward the building. In the meantime, Toby remained seated in the backseat with his hand on his cheek where Sonia had kissed him, looking as though he was caught in a trance.

After all, Sonia had never given him a kiss when they parted ways unless he told her to do so. Therefore, when she gave him a kiss without him asking, he was caught by surprise. Little did he know that Tom was secretly observing his reaction at the same time. Seeing Toby's stunned look, Tom quickly knew the reason and chuckled. "What a boost early in the morning, Mr. Fuller! Congratulations!"

After hearing his assistant, Toby put down his hand and kept his chest up, happily saying, "What's the big deal? It was just a kiss. There's nothing to congratulate me about."

Tom responded by rolling his eyes upward. Just a kiss? If it's nothing worth celebrating, stop smiling and keep your cocky attitude in check then. You're really funny, Mr. Fuller. Despite the thought of that, Tom didn't dare to speak his mind, replying with a cold grunt before he kept his eyes back on the road in an annoyed manner. I'd better shut up. Their lovey-dovey interaction is hurting my eyes.

However, Sonia, who just exited the vehicle, seemingly thought of something not long after she left the car. She then stopped in her tracks and doubled back toward the car. In the meantime, Toby saw Sonia returning and quickly ordered Tom to stop. Needless to say, Tom did as he was told and rolled down the window, sticking his head out to see whether Sonia was coming back.

Soon, Sonia got to the car and was about to knock on the window, but Toby beat her to it and rolled it down before she could do so. With a bright smile on Toby's handsome face, he turned around and looked at the lady.

"Did you forget something?" Still engrossed in the surprising kiss Sonia just gave him, Toby sounded exhilarated and high in spirits.

She faked a cough and said, "Nothing. I just want to tell you something."

"I'm listening." He jutted his chin.

Sonia secretly peeked at Tom, noticing the nervous expression on his face. Soon, she took her eyes off him and smiled. "It's getting late now, so I should probably get going. I have a meeting later, after all. Maybe we'll talk about it when we get home tonight."






















When Tom heard Sonia's words, he heaved a sigh of relief. Needless to say, he knew what Sonia was going to say to Toby, believing she was about to ask him what his next move was just as they discussed. After all, she told Tom that she would talk to Toby and sound him out earlier. However, that was precisely why Tom was afraid; he was worried that Sonia would do that in his presence. By then, Toby would most likely lecture him for his big mouth while he'd have a hard time explaining himself.

On the other hand, if Sonia chose to talk about that later that night, she could choose any approach she wanted to bring up the matter to Toby in his absence. Although Toby might still be mad at him for running his mouth off, he could not berate Tom right away. Besides, there was also a chance that Sonia might even dissuade Toby from giving him a hard time.

In the meantime, Toby had no idea what his assistant was thinking as he couldn't take his eyes off Sonia. Hearing the lady's words, he raised his eyebrows, his eyes seemingly filled with ambiguous emotion. "Is there something important?"

"Yes." Sonia nodded without hesitation.

"I'll come over and pick you up later in the afternoon." Toby agreed.

"See you, then." Sonia waved her hand at the man, who said goodbye to her and rolled up the window. After that, Sonia continued to stand by the roadside and waved at the man until the car went out of her sight before she entered the building. At the same time, the couple's lovey-dovey interaction was spotted by the employees around them as they couldn't help feeling envious toward the love Sonia and Toby had for each other. Although Sonia noticed their reactions, she only laughed it off and shook her head, greeting them as usual while walking toward the elevator.

As soon as Sonia arrived in her office, she heard someone knocking on her door. Thinking it was Daphne, she put down her purse and took off her coat while responding to the person outside her office without looking up. "Come in."

Hearing the rattling sound of high heels on the ground, Sonia paused for a second and looked up just when she was about to hang her coat. When she realized her secretary was someone else instead of Daphne, she asked in confusion, "Where is Daphne?"

"Didn't you know, Chairman Reed? Miss Daphne is on leave." The secretary stopped in front of Sonia's desk and politely added, "Miss Daphne applied for leave yesterday afternoon, so from today onward, I'm going to fill in for her until she comes back."

"That's right. I'm sorry, it totally slipped my mind." Sonia patted her forehead in frustration.
