"Uh..." After Daphne calmed down for a moment, she came to realize that it really was like what Sonia had said.
Touching her nose, Daphne then awkwardly muttered, "Chairman Reed, even if it was you who forced her to apologize, she was at fault for the whole incident first. If you didn't force her, she wouldn't have apologized at all. So, you forcing her isn't wrong. It's her acting like you wronged her and her making you out to be the bad guy that makes me disgusted."
Smiling, Sonia then said sarcastically,
"Unfortunately, you'll always meet delusional people who don't think they are in the wrong. It is always someone else's fault in their minds."
Tina was such a person.
I wonder which hole is Tina hiding in right now.Tim said that he had poisoned her two times using the venom of the sago palm. This kind of poison can make a person contract the most painful and incurable sickness in the world—ALS.
Tina was not born with it and she would not be directly affected by the sickness, but her body would still start to stiffen after being destroyed by the venom.
That was why Sonia and Toby had been trying to find Tina through doctors that specialize in treating ALS. However, after searching for so long, they only found out that those doctors had not diagnosed a person similar to Tina, nor were they invited to give a private diagnosis somewhere else.
This only meant that Tina's body had not started to sitfen, as each individual was different. Tim also was not able to ensure that her body would show signs of the sickness working, only saying that the chances of her body having problems would be higher.
The alternative conclusion was that Tina's body had started to stiffen but in order to not get discovered, she did not go for a diagnosis and just let her body stiffen slowly. This was not that far-fetched of an idea.
After all, she was a ruthless person not only to others, but to herself as well.
Inhaling deeply, Sonia decided to not think about her any longer, as it made her more and more frustrated.
"What is the Internet's take on this?" Sonia asked as she moved her neck around.
Subsequently, Daphne replied,
"Because you had ordered them earlier on, the PR department has been doing their job since the start. Although the opinion is against you due to Anya whining, the problem isn't that big as the PR department has practically silenced all such thoughts. There wasn't much of a splash caused by the incident this time around. Although some media outlets did contact me and wanted to ask about the details of her apology video, I just ignored them."
"Yeah, you can just continue to ignore them. No matter who asks, don't entertain them." Sonia waved her hand.
Nodding, Daphne then suggested, "I understand, but Anya intentionally behaved that way to sway public opinion, Chairman Reed. Do you want to..."
"There's no need." Pursing her lips, Sonia continued, "I know what you're trying to get at. Just leave this kind of person be. The more you care about this, the more excited she'll be. She might even do something to frame us bullying her. We'll be on the losing end if that happens. Just treat her as air, since we won't be bumping into each other anytime soon, so we don't have to come into contact with her anymore."
Hearing Sonia say that, Daphne also chose to give up. "Alright, then. I know what to do."
Sonia hummed in agreement. "If there's nothing more, I'll be hanging up now. I will be at the company before noon."
"Yes, Chairman Reed." Daphne nodded.
Putting her phone down, Sonia then looked at the time.
It was 10.20 AM.
Turned out that she didn't actually sleep that long.
She still remembered that when she was going to sleep yesterday, she could vaguely see twilight breaking the sky outside her window—it was a little over 5 AM then.
That meant Sonia had only slept five to six hours, which wasn't a long sleep at all.
But this only applied to her because she had gone to sleep so late.
For a normal person who slept before midnight, she did wake up too late.
After switching away from the clock on the screen, Sonia then noticed a message from Toby, which he had sent a little after 7 AM.
