Chapter 496 Toby’s Getting Engaged

When the female assistant felt Sonia holding onto her, she thought she was about to be brought in for a lecture. Fear had just crept into her when she heard Sonia’s question. “What? Weren’t you about to reprimand me?” She was stunned.

The corner of Sonia’s lips twitched. “If I were to scold anyone, it would be your leader. What use is it for me to scold any of you assistants?”

“Oh, yes. We were talking about how President Fuller from the Fuller group might be getting engaged again,” the assistant replied.

However, the assistant could sense a rather peculiar change in Sonia at the mention of Toby. “Yeah, that’s what the Internet says,” the assistant replied without thinking much of Sonia’s change in demeanor.

“The Internet?”

“Yeah. A media website uploaded an article today, and it included pictures of President Fuller hugging another woman. The media predicted that President Fuller might have good news to announce soon…” The assistant continued talking, but Sonia no longer heard anything that she said. All Sonia could think of was how Toby might be getting engaged again.
