Chapter 478 Toby’s Refusal to See Her

 

In order to save herself the embarrassment of chasing Sonia away like she did to the other women, the receptionist tried hard to keep her name in mind. However, she didn’t expect the day she met Sonia in person would come so soon.

 

 

So, this is Miss Reed—the lady whom President Fuller has been crazy about. Oh my gosh! I’m so fortunate to run into her now, and I must receive her with hospitality. Who knows, she may give me a large tip if I could make her feel happy?

 

Getting carried away with her imagination, the receptionist looked at Sonia as if she was gazing at a generous tycoon who was about to give away her money. Thus, she poured Sonia a glass of water and treated her cordially. “Please have a glass of water, Miss Reed. I’ll pass on the word about your arrival.”

 

“Thank you.” Sonia nodded a smile. In fact, she had actually tried to contact Toby when she was on her way there but failed to get an answer from Toby, whom she thought was probably busy at that moment. Thus, she had no choice but to approach the front desk and request help to contact the man.

“Tom, Miss Reed is here. She is actually just right beside me now.” The receptionist shot a gaze at Sonia.

 

 

 

“What did you say? Sonia is here?” Tom froze in his tracks.

 

“Yes.” The receptionist nodded.
