Chapter 496 Toby’s Getting Engaged

When the female assistant felt Sonia holding onto her, she thought she was about to be brought in for a lecture. Fear had just crept into her when she heard Sonia’s question. “What? Weren’t you about to reprimand me?” She was stunned.

The corner of Sonia’s lips twitched. “If I were to scold anyone, it would be your leader. What use is it for me to scold any of you assistants?”

The assistant let out a sigh of relief before she smiled. “You’re such a nice person, President Reed.”

“Enough with the nonsense. Tell me—what were you guys talking about earlier?” Sonia repeated her question.

“Oh, yes. We were talking about how President Fuller from the Fuller group might be getting engaged again,” the assistant replied.

“What?” Sonia’s pupils shrank as her body stiffened.

“Toby is… getting engaged?” The assistant was new to the company, so she wasn’t aware of Sonia’s past relationship with Toby. However, the assistant could sense a rather peculiar change in Sonia at the mention of Toby. “Yeah, that’s what the Internet says,” the assistant replied without thinking much of Sonia’s change in demeanor.
