Chapter 284

Soon, Sonia recalled that Toby stayed behind in the police station when she and Carl left in the afternoon.

Could it be that at that time, Toby was doing this behind her back?

Did he ask the officers to increase Cynthia and Davins sentence on purpose?

Thinking of this, Sonia pursed her red lips and dialed Toby’s number.

Back in the Fullers’ Residence, Toby was having a video conference in the study when his phone rang all of a sudden, interrupting his speech. He felt a little annoyed.

However, after seeing the caller ID, the annoyance on his face disappeared without a trace and was replaced by a hint of joy.

Sonia actually took the initiative to call him!

Toby grabbed his phone and did not immediately answer. Instead, he looked at the computer screen and said, “Let’s take a break from the meeting-I have to answer this call first.”

After speaking, disregarding the dumbfounded gaze of the group of people on the computer screen, he got up and went to the balcony.

“Wait. Didn’t President Fuller set the iron rule of not answering calls during any meetings himself?”

“Yes, but he has broken it personally now. That said, he didn’t seem to be affected by the ‘rule’ he set.”

“So… who do you think was the one that called?”

“Who knows? But judging from his look, it’s probably his sweetheart.”

Naturally, Toby didn’t know how his employees spoke about him after he left. He only stood in front of the balcony railing, swiped his thumb over the green answer button, and answered Sonia’s call. “What’s up?”

His voice was low and hoarse with a touch of gentleness, which was particularly nice to hear.

Hearing his voice, Sonia felt an unknown itch in her ears, so she couldn’t help but

 

take her phone away from her face. After rubbing her ears, she brought the phone back to her ears and asked, “Did you request for a heavier sentence for Cynthia?”

So it turned out that she only called him for this!

All of a sudden, the little speck of joy in Toby’s heart disappeared without a trace as he lowered his eyes and answered, “That’s right.”

Seeing how he had admitted to it so directly, Sonia was stunned for a moment. However, she soon recovered her calmness and asked in a cold voice, “Why? Why did you do this? This matter had nothing to do with you, right?”

“I know. I just wanted to do something for you,” Toby replied after pursing his thin lips.

“You… wanted to
