Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1418

Hearing Toby's question, Tom instantly lowered his head dejectedly. "President Fuller, I'm heartbroken."

Toby was stunned by this sudden piece of information. "Since when were you in a relationship?"

As his superior, he was confused as to why he didn't know about this earlier.

Tom instantly choked miserably. "Just recently, but it's an online relationship. We haven't met in real life yet."

Toby raised an eyebrow. "Online relationship? Are they trustworthy?"

His words were like a sharp arrow, viciously shooting into Tom's heart.

Tom clutched his chest, feeling even more despondent. "Not at all. I saw how good your relationship is with Mrs. Fuller, and I'm already thirty-one, so I wanted to find a girlfriend for myself. The thing is, I was too busy to look for an actual one. Hence, one of my friends told me to look for one on the internet. I thought it sounded interesting, so that's what I did. I met a girl with a nice voice and a good sense of humor, and after talking to her for some time, we started dating."

"Then, what?" Toby asked, looking at him. He had a feeling that things didn't turn out that simple.

"Then…" Tom covered his face in pain. "Then, while we were dating, I kept sending her money. I'd spent over a hundred thousand on her, but when I asked her for an offline meetup yesterday, she rejected me. Then, I looked at her personal details and found out that she's actually a guy… Sob…"

At this point, he finally broke into tears. He bawled, hard. Anyone else would've broken down if they encountered something like this during their first romantic relationship. After all, he had truly given his heart away.

At the sight of Tom sobbing sorrowfully, Toby looked at him in disdain. "You're just stupid. Why didn't you figure out whom he is before getting into a relationship? If you waited to think of this after you sacrificed your time and money, who's to blame other than yourself?"

Tom was speechless, unable to refute. Toby was right. He was too eager to get into a relationship and had dove into one without looking his partner up. It wasn't at all surprising that he got cheated.

"A hundred thousand isn't a small amount; it already qualifies as a scam. Best if you lodge a police report." Toby then opened the door to the back seat and got into the car.

Tom hurriedly entered the driver's seat before he continued, "I've already made a report. They're looking into it now and said they would contact me in a few days. This is so frustrating. If I get to see that guy, I'm gonna teach him a lesson. How dare he lie to me."

"You were too impulsive. He was wrong, but aren't you too?" Toby shot him a look.

Tom instantly gave in. "You're right, I am."

"I've decided." Toby rubbed his temples before saying, "After I've dealt with Connor, I'll give you a month off, so go and take a good rest and find a real girlfriend. Then, you can transfer to one of our subsidiary companies and work as the CEO there. That way, you'll have the time to settle your romantic relationships."

Toby was aware that Tom would not have any time to date anyone if he continued to work for him, and it was what he owed Tom as his superior. Hence, he decided to let him go so that he could find a partner, or he would soon turn forty if he kept dragging it on.

Hearing that, Tom instantly cheered up, his eyes brightening as he said, "All right. Thank you, President Fuller."

"Right, start driving." Toby lifted his chin.

Tom inhaled deeply and collected his thoughts before he began to maneuver the car seriously. An hour later, they arrived at Trifecta Hospital.
