Since Titus raised Triforce Enterprise’s stock price at his expense, Toby would return the favor!
“Understood, but the liquidated damages—”
“Just pay the penalty!” Toby said with pursed lips.
Titus must have made those remarks in the video because he figured that Toby wouldn’t cancel their cooperation due to the liquidated damages.
It was a pity that Triforce Enterprise wasn’t as rich as the Fuller Group, and Titus wasn’t as rich as he was; he didn’t care about this penalty at all.
“Okay.” Tom nodded and went to carry out the task.
About half an hour later, Titus received a notice about the cancellation of their cooperation, and their finance department received payment from the Fuller Group for the liquidated damages as well.
At this moment, Titus was completely dumbfounded.
He knew that what he said in the video would offend Toby.
But he didn’t expect that Toby would rather pay for the liquidated damages than continue his cooperation with Triforce Enterprise!
Suddenly, Titus started panicking.
It was worth noting that Triforce Enterprise’s situation had long started going downhill, and the reason why it was still among the top ten enterprises in Seafield was because of their cooperation with the Fuller Group.
Now that their cooperation was gone, Titus dared not even imagine what Triforce Enterprise’s downfall would be like, and the company’s directors wouldn’t let him off the hook either.
Speak of the devil—there was a knock on the office door, and Titus’ assistant came in anxiously. “President Gray, I have some bad news. Director Walker and the others have called for a meeting and are requesting your presence.”
Titus’ pupils shrank, and his heart fell.
Then, he got up from the chair with a wry smile; he seemed to have aged a decade.
“I see. Let’s go, then!”
At the Fuller Group, Tom reported Triforce Enterprise’s current situation to Toby.
While going through some documents, Toby grunted an answer without raising his head to indicate that he had gotten the message.
At this moment, Tom’s phone rang.
“President Fuller, I need to answer this call,” Tom said while looking at Toby, who gave a slight nod.
“Go on.”
After getting permission, Tom took out his phone and raised his eyebrows when he saw the caller ID before answering.
Two minutes later, he hung up the phone and looked at Toby. “President Fuller, Mr. Snyder is here!”
Upon hearing this, Toby stopped moving the pen in his hand, then raised his head and narrowed his eyes while urging unabashedly, “Bring him in!”
“All right. I’ll go get him,” Tom informed before going out to fetch Miles.
In no time, Miles Snyder appeared in Toby’s office, expressionless as usual in a white shirt and trousers.
Toby looked at him in an equally indifferent manner.
The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and Toby was the one to break the strange silence.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know that the heart I have now belonged to your brother,” Toby stood up and said.
Miles’ silver-gray eyes landed on his chest. “Quentin gave it to you willingly, so you don’t have to say sorry to me.”
Willingly?
A gleam flashed across Toby’s eyes.
Perhaps Quentin had indeed given it to him willingly, just as Quentin had willingly fulfilled Tina’s wishes and got Miles to hypnotize him.
However, he still reckoned there was something fishy about Quentin’s car accident.
And Miles didn’t seem to realize that there was a problem.
Oblivious to what Toby was thinking, Miles looked at Toby and asked, “Can we start now?”
Toby returned to his senses and nodded slightly. “Yes.”
Forget it. I won’t tell him for now.
It wouldn’t be too late even if he waited until the results of his investigation came out.
