This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 102

Tina chewed on her bottom lip as panic filled her. No longer in the mood to stay for Cynthia’s appeal, she turned and left.

Half an hour later, she found herself at Fuller Group.

“Toby…” Tina couldn’t care less if there were others in the presidential office as she strode over to Toby’s desk. With her eyes red and glistening with tears, she sat down on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck, thereafter nuzzling into his chest as she began to sob quietly.

Toby stiffened at her unanticipated behavior, but when he regained his composure, he frowned at the woman in his arms.

If it weren’t for the fact that she was crying, he thought he might very well push her away.

“Leave the documents here, and I’ll get back to the both of you after I’ve reviewed them. Go back to your own desks for now,” Toby announced to the man and woman standing in front of his desk. He put down the documents in his hand and rubbed his temple tiredly.

The man and woman standing in his office nodded. “Yes, President Fuller.”

After that, they left his office.

It was only after the door closed behind them that the woman whispered disapprovingly, “Isn’t she President Fuller’s fiancée? She ought to know better than to barge into the office without knocking first. It’s so rude of her to interrupt while we’re in the midst of a work discussion, not to mention sit down in President Fuller’s lap at first instance. The company is no place for her to throw her girly tantrums.”

The man next to her simply shrugged. “President Fuller always lets her have her way.”

The woman was obviously displeased. “Okay, well, he needs to draw the line somewhere!”

“Alright, that’s enough now. We’re the ones who would get in trouble if we keep talking about this.”

The woman pouted but said nothing more.

Meanwhile, in the office, Toby carefully pried Tina away as he said, “There, there, Tina. Why don’t you get down for a bit?”

“No!” Tina whined, burrowing back into his arms.

He sighed and did not try to push her away again. Indulging her whims, he asked, “Go on, then. Tell me what happened.”
