After waiting for about half an hour, Toby was drinking coffee when he suddenly heard movement from the direction of the conference room opposite him.
He put down the coffee cup, stood up, and looked in that direction just in time to see the door of the conference room open. Then, a group of people came out in twos and threes.
Toby stared at those people, looking for the figure he had been thinking of among them.
However, he still couldn't see the figure that he wanted to see after looking for some time, and he felt slightly disappointed.
It seems like she's going to be the last one to come out.
Toby pursed his lips, but he still did not withdraw his gaze. If Sonia didn't come out last, wouldn’t he miss her if he looked away now?
Toby's gaze was so focused that he quickly attracted the attention of those who came out of the conference room.
When those people looked around and saw Toby standing there, they were all stunned.
"P-President Fuller?"
Someone couldn't help but call out. With this, the other sluggish people also came back to their senses.
"It really is President Fuller! I thought I was mistaken."
"Me too."
"Why is President Fuller here?" Someone raised a curious question.
Soon, these curious people were looked down upon by others.
"Nonsense, what kind of question is that? Our chairman and President Fuller are a match made in heaven.”
Upon being reminded of this, the person who had asked curiously immediately reacted by patting his forehead. He then said, "Yes, I almost forgot. President Fuller must be here to look for our chairman."
"That's right."
"In that case, shall we say hello?" someone asked.
However, it was quickly opposed by others. "It’s not necessary to greet him. President Fuller is here to find the chairman. Wouldn't it be annoying if we go over to greet him?"
"However, since he is here, it seems a little bit inappropriate if we don’t go over to say hello."
"Well..."
Everyone didn’t know what to say and fell silent.
Yes, it was both appropriate and inappropriate to say hello. What else could they do, though?
Moreover, they couldn’t leave now.
At that moment, the Paradigm Co.'s executives who came out of the conference room were all unsure of what to do.
Asher, who was in the middle of the crowd, listened to everyone's discussion before he looked at Toby. Meanwhile, the latter was staring at the expectant crowd, his face as dark as ever.
Asher had always been troubled by the relationship between Toby and Sonia.
The better the relationship between these two people, the worse it was for him.
When their relationship was good, Toby would help Sonia out during difficulties, so Asher’s dream of obtaining Paradigm Co. would be even more difficult to achieve.
Therefore, he wished that these two were distant from each other. Nevertheless, that was unlikely and unrealistic right now.
Toby had come here to pick up Sonia from work, so how could they be distant from each other now?
Asher clenched his fists, his face full of unhappiness.
When the executives who supported
Sonia saw Asher like this, they all laughed in disdain.
