This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 204

See, that’s how different this hamper is from the others. He can‘t even be mad now that he knows Miss Reed has sent this, Tom thought with glee.

“Sonia sent this?” Toby’s fingers tightened around his pen as a pleased look flashed in his eyes

Tom noticed it and he quickly carried the hamper across the room to Toby. Then, Tom feigned innocence as he asked, “Do you still want this, President Fuller? I could always take it down to the finance department if you don’t.” I don‘t think you’d say no, President Fuller.

“Just put it aside for now,” Toby instructed coolly, jerking his chin in some vague direction.

As expected, Tom stifled a laugh as he nodded and responded, “Yes, sir.” So, I was right when I guessed that President Fuller would keep the hamper. More to the point, he could tell how happy Toby was and he found the man’s efforts to maintain a straight face rather pointless.

Tom set the hamper down without another word. He was just about to leave when his

phone rang in his pocket. As he took it out, he glanced at the screen to see that it was the receptionist calling. “I need to get this, President Fuller.”

Toby hummed distractedly in response as his gentle gaze lingered on the hamper.

Taken aback by how enamored Toby was with the gift, Tom mused, I bet he‘d have torn into the hamper if I wasn‘t here. Nonetheless, he looked away from his boss and simply answered the phone.

Barely two minutes had passed when he drew the phone away and informed plainly, “President Fuller, Miss Gray has arrived.”

When Toby heard this, he frowned. “What is she doing here?”

“I’m not sure, but she has probably caught the news of your injury.” Tom’s eyes fell upon the wheelchair in which Toby was sitting

Toby massaged the space between his brows. “Let her through.”

“Yes, sir.” Tom placed his phone to his ear once more and relayed instructions to the

person on the other line.

It took only moments for Tina to come up to the presidential office and as soon as she entered the room, she urged, “Is it true that you were hurt, Toby? How did that happen?”

Toby raised his cup and took a tentative sip of coffee. “It was a minor accident, that’s all.”
