Chapter 749 Jessica Wants to See You

Deep down, Tom was aware of Toby’s insecurities even after Toby rekindled the old flames with Sonia, as she still appeared to reject him somehow. Therefore, he believed Toby should probably feel more uplifted and confident now that he had managed to win Sonia over completely.

As Tom had anticipated, Toby curled his lips upward upon hearing his congratulations. “Alright, that’s enough. What’s there to congratulate me for? After all, what we did was nothing uncommon,” Toby said as he barely hid his complacency.

Tom rolled his eyes upward in a speechless manner but still responded with a smiling face. “Of course, President Fuller.”

“By the way, why did you call up?” Toby asked and continued to say, “I told you I won’t be in the office today, so don’t bother looking for me for anything because I’ll only be back to look into them tomorrow.”

“I know, but I must tell you this because it’s not about our company’s affair but Jessica.” Tom sounded serious.

As soon as Toby heard Jessica’s name, he sat up straight and showed a keen interest. “Really? Jessica?”

“Yeah.” Tom nodded. “I got a call from the police station this morning and was told that Jessica would like to see you.”

“What?” Toby knitted his eyebrows. “She wants to see me?”

“Yeah.”

“Are you sure Little Leaf is not the one she wants to see?” Toby had no idea why Jessica wanted to see him because there was nothing personal between him and her. Instead, he reckoned Sonia should be the one she wanted to see before going to jail.
