Chapter 25

President Fuller?

Sonia looked at the door of the private

room, just in time to meet Toby’s cold

teapot in her hand.

took the opportunity to exchange

business cards with Toby.

Meanwhile, Sonia was silently fiddling

with her cards.

After receiving the business cards

from the two men, Toby strode toward
