Chapter 812 Misery

Toby was like a vengeful demon who suddenly overcame his resentment and in that instant, he became an angel that radiated warmth and love.

The rest of the people in the meeting room began to exchange gazes and let out breaths of relief after witnessing Toby being so different from how he used to be.

It was hard for them to not let their relief show.

Apparently, someone had misplaced a decimal point in an important project proposal earlier during the meeting. When Toby had noticed the hundred-million-dollar mistake, he immediately exploded and started biting everyone’s heads off. Even the innocent bystanders were given a taste of his wrath. The atmosphere in the meeting room had become so tense that there wasn’t one person in the meeting room, minus Toby, that wasn’t on edge.

Just as they thought they wouldn’t be let off easily, his phone started ringing. As soon as Toby held the phone in his hand, the scary Oni mask on his face had been replaced with a gentle, warm expression.

Everyone knew that only one person had the ability to make Toby transform like that. It was definitely Toby’s ex-wife and also his current girlfriend—Sonia Reed.

They were extremely grateful for the sudden life-saving text she had sent him.

Otherwise, they would have to suffer more if it wasn’t her message that came at the exact right time.

Even though no one spoke, everyone was thinking the same thing in their hearts. Sonia is my savior, and I’m thankful to her.

Despite his employees’ evident change in mood, Toby was not interested to look at their faces. He only leaned against the backrest of his chair while his fingers swiftly typed out a message: ‘I’m glad you like it. I was worried you wouldn’t.’

Sonia smiled when she read the reply, and quickly wrote another message: ‘How could I not? I quite like it! And you? You left pretty early today. Had your breakfast?’

Toby slightly nodded. ‘I did.’

Sonia took a bite into her food. ‘That’s good. Are you busy?’
