Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1037

"I am a nice boss." Toby slightly raised his chin as he displayed a smug expression.

The corner of Sonia's lips twitched. "Hey hey hey. I am being sarcastic. Can't you tell?"

She knew he loved exploiting Tom, but she never expected him to go this far! It was as if Toby did not know what was wrong with doing so.

"I can." He leaned against his chair and let out a light smile. He was not an idiot, so how could he not be able to read between the lines?

"So, what's with that proud face?" She gave the man an eye-roll.

He smiled. "If he isn't the one working overtime, then I will be the one. If so, I wouldn't have the time to be with you.

So, why not let him do the work? He's single and has loads of time for it."

His shameless yet reasonable words rendered Sonia speechless. Despite the frustration and funny feeling, her heart went out for Tom.

What's wrong with being single? Is it a reason to be exploited?

Feeling helpless, she kneaded her forehead. "Think about it. If it weren't for you, he would've the time to find himself a girlfriend.”

Toby fell into silence. That makes sense too.

However, he would not admit to it; if he did, he would be the main cause for Tom being single. Thus, he would never admit to it, so it was not his fault.

As an afterthought, he pursed his lips and coughed before replying nonchalantly, "Him being single is not on me. He is the one at fault. He doesn't want a girlfriend. If he does, he will spare the time to get one no matter how busy he is."

In short, it was none of Toby's business.

How could Sonia not know that he was being stubborn and not admitting the truth? He was making up an excuse. She shook her head in helplessness. "Yeah, yeah. It's none of your business. You care so much for your workers. How would his subordinates not have the time to find themselves a partner when they have such a nice boss, isn't it?"

Hearing that, Toby shamelessly hummed in response. Yeah, that's right.

The corner of Sonia's lips twitched once again.

This brazen man.

She said that on purpose and yet, he accepted it without a tad of guilt. Just what should she do with him?

"Fine. Regardless, don't exploit him too much. You guys are still young and have to work together for another few decades. If you put too much pressure on him, it'll take a toll on his health and what will you do in ten years time? Are you sure you'll be able to find someone who has a good rapport with you and knows you as well as he does?"

She gave an eye-roll.

It took him a while before he reciprocated, "Little Leaf."

"Hmm?" She cocked her head. "What's wrong?"

"You..." Toby pursed his lips and his voice trailed off. A couple of seconds later, he finally continued, "I think you're worse than I am. You push Tom more than I do."

She was stunned. "What do you mean? How am I worse than you are?"
