This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 771

Chapter 771 Accompany Him to Work

Upon hearing Tom’s displeasure, Anya had her pupils constricted a little before realizing her behavior was inappropriate. Immediately, she pursed her lips and forced herself to smile. “No. Of course not. That’s not what I meant.”

“What do you mean, then?” Tom frowned while Anya lowered her gaze. “I’m just trying to express my disbelief because I didn’t expect Miss Reed to voice out for me despite me offending her, and that’s why I was so surprised when I heard what you said. I am not being ungrateful for Miss Reed’s kindness. Instead, I’m nothing but grateful for her thoughtfulness.”

Tom dropped the topic as Anya’s explanation was logical, and he couldn’t find any fault in what she said, so he harrumphed. “That’s good to know. You may return now, Miss Steinfeld. We will be waiting for your compensation and apology.”

Anya nodded. “Alright.”

Then, Tom stopped entertaining her and turned around to enter Toby’s ward.

Meanwhile, Anya watched as Tom left with a twisted expression on her face.

Nevertheless, her demeanor only made her face look even more stiff and terrifying due to her facial reconstruction surgery.

Of course, Tom didn’t know about what happened after he left.

When he entered the ward and saw the couple cuddling on the hospital bed, he rolled his eyes secretly.

Are these two for real? Why would they still fool around in bed instead of getting up when they already woke up?

Although that was what Tom thought to himself, he didn’t dare to voice out his thoughts and only cleared his throat while acting as if he hadn’t seen anything. “President Fuller, Miss Reed.”

While Toby had no reaction, Sonia reacted awkwardly upon seeing Tom’s arrival before she blushed and wanted to get away from Toby’s embrace as she was awake now.

Sonia could act as if she didn’t know anything when she was asleep, but she couldn’t do so since she was awake.

It’s better if I get up.

Nevertheless, Toby hugged her waist tightly when he noticed that she was moving and refused to let her out of his embrace. “Stop moving!”

Sonia glared at him. “Let me go. Mr. Brown is here.”

Right then, Toby gave Tom a look, and Tom quickly tensed up and straightened his posture as if he was threatened. “It’s fine, Miss Reed. You can pretend I’m not here, really!” Tom said earnestly.

However, that made Sonia feel even more embarrassed.

Pretend he isn’t there? How is that even possible when he’s sitting right there? There’s no way that I can act like he’s invisible unless I’m blind or I really don’t care. Wouldn’t he witness everything if Toby suddenly gets into the mood for that?! That would be so embarrassing!

Toby could tell what Sonia was thinking about by looking at her wavering eyes. He smirked a little and got down to business, as that would distract Sonia from overthinking.

“Have you settled everything?” He turned to Tom while Tom nodded slightly before replying, “Everything is settled. That woman promised to pay for compensation and apologize to Miss Reed openly.”

Toby hummed in acknowledgment. “Alright.”

“However, she didn’t accept it at first,” Tom mentioned.

Upon hearing that, Tom frowned. “How so?”

On the other hand, Sonia didn’t look surprised as she chimed in, “It’s normal for her not to accept the arrangement, considering the fact that she might get cyberbullied after this.”

“That’s true.” Tom nodded. “She even thought that Miss Reed was trying to get revenge on her.”

“Me getting revenge on her?” Sonia chuckled in disbelief while Toby’s face darkened. “Who does she think she is for Sonia to get revenge on her?”

Tom shrugged. “At least that’s what she thought.”
