Chapter 110
“Aren’t you going in?” By now, Toby was also aware that Sonia was here for the meeting, even though he had no idea how she managed to secure a place in the meeting
She bit her lower lip in hesitation and answered, “Why don’t you head in first? I don’t want to enter at the same time as you.”
At that moment, she could tell that the room was bustling with activity from the muffled sounds.
If she entered the room with him, the attendees might gossip about them due to the awkward nature of their relationship.
Toby sensed her concern and lowered his gaze. “There are three minutes left. If you’re late, you will lose the right to join.”
After that, he pushed the door open and entered the room, leaving her standing alone and gawking at him.
Was that a kind reminder?
Sonia regardlessly took his words in all seriousness and turned to her wristwatch. A minute later, she took a deep breath and stepped into the room.
Her appearance had caused widespread shock and exclamation.
“Isn’t this President Fuller’s ex-wife?”
“She is also the vice president of Paradigm Co.”
“Paradigm Co.? How were they invited to this meeting if they’re on the brink of bankruptcy?”
Everyone started whispering and murmuring except for Toby and Titus.
