“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.

Sonia turned around and walked to her own office. The assistant hadn’t finished speaking, so she tilted her head sideways when Sonia walked off without dismissing her. “President Reed is acting really weirdly.

She glanced at the first few lines of the post. ‘According to our sources, the Fuller and McRae Groups are arranging for a union of their families.

Now I know why he decided to let go of me, and now I understand why he no longer needs me to care for him. It’s because he’s in love with Lily and is getting engaged to her. That’s why he’s letting go of me, and that’s why he no

Charles couldn’t sense the difference in Sonia’s tone, and he stared at his computer screen as he continued blabbering excitedly. “Darling, did you know how rude Toby was toward Lily when we were at the social event last night? I can’t believe they’re getting engaged now! Tsk. What is going on in his mind, darling? Why is he getting engaged with Lily if he doesn’t like her? How does he benefit from this engagement?
