Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 96

Back in the venue of the press conference, Sonia continued to target Cynthia as she went on, “Miss Stone posted about me pestering my ex-husband after our divorce, being a third wheel in President Fuller and Miss Gray’s relationship six years ago, as well as forcing President Fuller to marry me. I would hereby declare that except for the final point, everything she said is false!”

The crowd was surprised as soon as they heard her statement. A journalist stood up and asked, “Miss Reed, does this mean you really forced President Fuller to marry you?”

“Yes.” Sonia looked at the journalist before nodding in admission.

On the side, Charles was all jittery. “Darling, what are you talking about?” Is this something that you should be announcing in public?

Meanwhile, Toby, who was in Fuller Group’s office, couldn’t help but frown. Even Zane couldn’t fathom Sonia’s decision. “Although it is true, isn’t she worried that the onslaught of public opinion might just lead to Paradigm Co.’s downfall if she admitted to it just like that? Toby, what the hell do you think she has in mind?”

Zane raised his head to glance in Toby’s direction, only to see the latter wordlessly pulling his lips into a thin line.

Meanwhile, Tina was also watching the live broadcast in Gray Residence. Seeing Sonia admit to threatening Toby brought a smile to her face, for she assumed that Sonia was digging her own grave.

Back on the scene, Sonia remained impassive despite the fact that the press were buzzing with excitement. She was aware of the consequences of bringing her past actions to light, but she had

no regrets.

The journalist followed up with another question. “Miss Reed, why did you do that?”

“Why, you ask?” Sonia lowered her gaze before replying with a cool voice, “Because I love him.”

Toby’s pupils shrunk, and his body straightened subconsciously. He knew he was the person whom she loved, for he had witnessed it in her gaze during the past six years. However, he didn’t expect her to actually open up about her feelings for him. While rubbing his fingers together, pleasure filled his heart.

However, the euphoria didn’t last long, for it was dissipated by what Sonia said next. As Sonia stared at the camera, she declared, “But that was a long time ago, and I no longer love him now!”

Toby’s expression changed slightly, panic surging within him as if he had lost something. At the side, Zane whistled. “Toby, do you think what she said is true?”

“It has nothing to do with me, be it true or false!” Toby clenched his fists, his voice cold and hard.

Aware of Toby’s dishonesty, Zane smiled cheekily. “Is that so? From what I can see, you don’t look like it.”

“Go get your eyes checked.” Toby glowered at Zane.

Zane shrugged. “Okay, I guess I’ll shut up.” With that, he hung his head low and continued watching the live broadcast.

Meanwhile, the journalist asked again, “Miss Reed, despite your love for President Fuller, isn’t forcing him to marry you by holding the fact that you saved Miss Gray against him crossing a line? Besides, President Fuller was already with Miss Gray back then, so—"

“As I said earlier, I never stepped in between them. Those are just baseless rumors.” Already knowing what the journalist was about to ask, Sonia cut her off while holding the mic up. “It’s because I had no idea back then that they were together. When I was in university, I asked Miss Gray about her relationship with Toby. The reply she gave was that she saw Toby as her brother, which was the reason I went after President Fuller. As for my request for him to marry me...”

Sonia took a deep breath. “I admit that it’s not the right thing to do. Back when I saved Miss Gray after she got involved in an accident, President Fuller asked if I had any requests. When I told him to marry me, he agreed to that, so that’s what ended up happening. If...”
