Chapter 1225 Sonia’s Attempt to Sound Toby Out

Sonia smiled gently at the young lady. “Of course. In fact, I will always support any one of you as long as you’re working hard for your future. Therefore, I want you to know that there is nothing you should worry about besides working toward your goal.”

Rita was touched upon hearing Sonia’s words. She then wrapped her arms around the document and nodded with a bashful smile on her face. “Loud and clear, President Reed. You’re such a kind employer.”

Please tell the departmental managers that I’ll have the documents sent to them in an hour.” In response, Rita smiled and nodded without asking Sonia why she was distracted before she excused herself.

If I hadn’t done that, I wouldn’t have been bothered by the thought that Toby might be mad. It’s taken a toll on my productivity. I guess that’s why we shouldn’t do anything against our conscience because what goes around comes around.
