When Harry heard Grayson's voice, he put down the elegance in him as he gripped his phone tightly while he roared, "Don't call me dad! I don't have such a dumb son!"
At that moment, he was in the same state as Grayson when he was being unreasonable in Sonia's office. Like father, like son— not only did they look alike, but their behaviors were identical.
Just as Grayson was expecting Harry's tone to be calm, he was met with a roar when he picked up the phone. It startled him, and he winced while putting the phone away from him.
While covering one of his ears, Grayson mumbled into the phone. "What are you doing, Dad? I'm in the car with my assistant, so don't embarrass me in front of him. Dumb is such a harsh word, you know."
Harry sneered upon hearing his words and said, "Why should I avoid embarrassing you when you have done something foolish? Who do you think you are?"
"What foolish thing did I do, Dad?" Grayson retorted.
"What did you do?" Harry sneered. "You'll know what you've done later on. Now, hurry up and get back here. I'll give you thirty minutes for this. If you are not back by then, I'll teach you a lesson." With that, he hung up the phone.
Grayson only noticed the call had been disconnected when he looked at it after hearing no sound when he had been calling Harry. Then, he threw his phone aside and said bitterly, "What's wrong with him? Why is he so angry?"
When the assistant saw how confused Grayson was, he rolled his eyes in secret. Although my dumb boss might not know why President Lore is furious, I know it has to do with apologizing to Miss Reed. Since he has messed up the apology, it would only be expected for President Lore to be mad.
As the assistant thought about it, he didn't tell Grayson. After all, it would be a waste of time to say such a thing to a foolish person. I'm better off driving back to the company in silence, he thought calmly while turning the steering wheel.
At the same time, Toby was just done meeting a client in the Fuller Group. When he left the drawing room, he saw Tom walking toward him with a stern face.
"What's wrong?" Toby stopped walking and asked.
"President Fuller, something happened to Miss Reed," said Tom as he stood in front of Toby.
"Again?" Toby's expression changed, and he had an intimidating presence.
Noticing Toby's change in countenance, Tom quickly pushed his glasses and comforted him. "Calm down, President Fuller. It's not a big deal. It's just that the Lore Family went to Paradigm Co. to meet Miss Reed," he said.
When Toby heard that it was the Lore Family who had gone to find Sonia, his expression became even colder. "Which one of the Lore Family?" he asked.
The Lore Family disliked Sonia and treated her unruly. As such, when he heard that they had met with Sonia, his first reaction was that they would cause trouble for her. That was why he was in a bad mood.
When he saw Toby walking away, Tom quickly trailed behind him while saying, "It's Grayson."
"Him?" Toby squinted his eyes. "Did you find out why they are looking for her?"
Tom shook his head and replied, "I didn't ask. However, Paradigm Co.'s employee recorded a video when he went there and posted it online. Then, they wrote that he was there to apologize to Sonia for what happened yesterday."
When Toby heard his words, his lips curled into a sneer as if he had listened to a joke. "An apology? I didn't know that he could apologize," he said.
