Chapter 792 President Fuller Is an Incubus
Looking at the woman who was sleeping in his embrace, Toby knew that she must have been exhausted, and he blamed himself as he felt bad for her.
He knew that he did not hold back this night, but this wasn’t exactly his fault either.
What man could hold it in when doing the most intimate thing in the world with the woman they loved the most?
Rubbing his forehead, Toby thought of apologizing to Sonia after she woke up and buying a present for her.
At that thought, he carried Sonia to the bathroom before washing her and himself up. It was only then that he did sleep, with the woman in his embrace.
Yet, Toby did not sleep for long. At around 7 AM, he was already awake. After washing up and putting on his clothes, he then pecked Sonia’s cheek and exited the room silently, leaving Bayside Residence.
The idea that was pushed forth the day before was unanimously voted on by everyone. So naturally, he would have his fair share of work cut out for him today.
The reason he had to leave so early was because he needed to go inspect every factory. Otherwise, Toby would’ve accompanied Sonia until she woke up.
“Morning, President Fuller.” In the parking lot, Tom, who had been waiting beside Toby’s car for quite a while, immediately extinguished the cigarette and greeted him while standing up straight the moment he saw Toby coming.
Toby greeted him with a nod. Then, he ordered Tom, “Tell Daphne that Little Leaf will be arriving late to Paradigm Co. today.”
Upon hearing his words, Tom immediately knew what was up. He nodded after a short laugh. “I understand, President Fuller.”
He’s good, making Miss Reed unable to get up as usual and go to work. Now I see how capable the president is in that area.
Toby glanced sideways at Tom after catching him laughing.
Understanding that he had exposed his somewhat dirty side, Tom immediately stopped laughing and tried to cover it up with a cough. With a straight face, he commented, “Sorry, President Fuller. I’ve a somewhat sore throat today.”
Not in the mood to care about such things, Toby instead opened the door and boarded the car.
While Tom was fastening his seatbelt after hurriedly getting into the driver seat, he heard another order coming from behind him, “When it’s about 9 AM, let the hotel prepare a set of breakfast and send it to her residence, but don’t knock. Let the waiter stand at the door and only give it to Little Leaf when she wakes up. Don’t let them disturb her sleep.”
“Yes, President Fuller.” Tom nodded.
With no further orders, Toby then took out his phone, lowering his head and looking at the screen.
At the same time he put away his phone, Sonia’s phone in her room also buzzed as the screen lit up.
Hearing the buzzing, Sonia, who was still on the bed, frowned and moved her eyes around, looking like she was about to wake up.
But alas, due to her eyelids feeling like metal shutters, she could not open them up after trying for quite some time, so she just gave up and went back to sleep.
It was a phone call that thoroughly woke her up after sleeping for another two to three hours.
“Hello?” Sonia, who still had not opened her eyes, only used her hand to reach in the direction of the bedside table.
With the habit of putting the phone at the bedside table before sleeping, she reached for her phone on the first try. Then, using muscle memory, she unlocked the screen and put the phone to her ear.
At the other side, Daphne only heard a sleepy and hoarse sounding Sonia struggling to get up. After a bit of silence, the former proceeded to speak, “Chairman Reed, it’s me.”
“Ah—Daphne.” Recognizing the woman’s voice, Sonia rubbed her eyes before finally opening them. Lying flat on the bed, she gazed at the lights on the ceiling.
Nodding, Daphne replied, “Yes, it’s me, Chairman Reed. Have you… just woken up?”
Daphne asked this in a careful tone.
