Chapter 799 Don’t Even Think About It

 

While Tom was resigned to this humiliation, he couldn’t help but pray fervently that the delivery guy from Paradigm Co. would show up soon. If he did, then Tom and Toby would be spared from this embarrassment.

 

Perhaps the heavens decided to take pity on Tom and moved to spare him and Toby from the awkward situation, because not long after that, a man in a suit came through the entrance with a thermal container in hand.

As soon as Tom spotted the man, he stood up and announced enthusiastically, “President Fuller, the guy from Paradigm Co. is here! I remember that thermal container he’s holding because Miss Reed used it while she was taking care of you!”

Toby had been glancing at his watch when he heard Tom’s words and looked up immediately. Sure enough, the familiar thermal container came into view, and as for the man carrying it, Toby decided to pay no mind to him at all.

A smile tugged on his lips as he rose from his seat and walked up to the man from Paradigm Co.

On the other hand, the man was a little startled to see Toby approach him personally. “President Fuller,” he greeted.

“Give it to me,” Toby said in clipped tones as he reached for the container.

 

Without delay, the man quickly handed it over and smiled respectfully as he said, “President Fuller, this is the soup Chairman Reed made for you and had me send over here. She also wants to remind you to drink it while it’s hot.”

Toby grabbed the thermal container and replied warmly, “Thank you. You may go back now.”

“Very well,” the man said courteously with a nod.

 

Then, Toby turned and headed for the elevators with Tom hurrying after him.

It was only after the two of them had disappeared into the elevator that the receptionist let out a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, the two heads of Ceberus are gone! It was as if she had been brought back to life after turning into stone. She didn’t have to gird her loins or bear with the suffocating pressure anymore!
