After seeing this question, all the netizens who stayed on Sonia's profile stopped typing their questions as they waited for her reply.
They were afraid that they could not see her reply if they continued typing and made the feed refresh itself with all the new questions to drown this question.
She smiled, then looked up to smile at Toby.
When he sensed her gaze, he placed his phone down and looked back at her. "Just tell them the truth."
That meant he saw the comment and knew why she looked over at him.
Sonia sucked in a deep breath. "Really? Are you okay with that?"
"Yeah. You have the right to do this. After all, you're the victim, so you don't need to ask me about it. Do whatever you need to do."
Toby's words made her smile. "Okay, then I won't ask you anymore."
After saying that, her gaze landed back on her phone to reply to the netizen, 'There's nothing between Squirrel and me. As all of you know, money makes the world go round.
With enough temptation, people would be daring to take certain risks.'
The netizens went into an uproar at that.
'That's actually true, but does that mean someone else is behind this and that the person in the dark is the one who wants to slander you, Miss Reed? This person gave Squirrel certain benefits, so Squirrel risked it all to make up a rumor to taint your name.'
Sonia liked that comment and replied while tagging Toby in her response, 'You're right. The person behind all of this is a woman who admires President Fuller, but what can we do?
President Fuller is too charming, so that woman thought of this plan, hoping that it would cause misunderstandings to arise between us to the point where President Fuller leaves me. She thought that she could get a chance with him when I'm not in the picture anymore. It's unfortunate for her that my man, President Fuller, had never suspected that I cheated on him since the start, and here, I'd like to thank President Fuller for his trust.'
Toby, who was tagged, instantly saw Sonia's reply toward the netizen.
When he saw that she called her his man, he felt a fire burning within his chest. Even his gaze was burning with desire for her, and his breath became heavier as well.
His stare made Sonia blush and think to herself, If Charles isn't here right now, I'm sure he's going to strip me with his gaze, or he might even do that for real. Jeez, stop looking at me!
Sonia glared at Toby with widened eyes and blushed cheeks.
He smirked, then raised his phone as he pointed to the screen. "Well, I like the way you referred to me, but it'll be even better if you could change that."
Looking at the phrase he pointed to, she blinked and asked, "To what?"
Slowly, Toby spoke, "Husband."
That made her blush even harder. Her cheeks were now as red as a tomato.
Charles, who was sitting opposite her, suppressed the bitterness in his heart and sneered. "Shameless. The both of you aren't even married yet. How dare you ask Sonny to call you that!"
Toby turned and shot Charles a cold glance. "It’s going to happen sooner or later. What? Are you jealous?"
