Chapter 870 Jealous Again

Sonia was not exaggerating at all. Toby’s affections for her ran deep, and she believed that he would do anything she asked him to, even if it meant letting Anya off scot-free.

But would she ask him to do that?

The man behind Anya was barking up the wrong tree with this plan of his.

True enough, Toby did not even have to refute the attorney’s words, as the attorney himself quickly added, “I know that it’s impossible, of course. President Fuller and I might go way back, but now we barely have any contact with each other. He would not choose to go easy on Anya just for my sake.”

“Since you’re well aware of that, then why did you accept the case anyway?” Sonia asked.

Mr. Salzburg promised that as long as I met with President Fuller and pleaded the case to him, then I would be paid 5 million.”

He held up his fingers to emphasize the amount.

Sonia gasped. “5 million? That’s a lot of money indeed.”

The attorney nodded in agreement. “Exactly! Combined with my retainer fee, I would be paid a total of slightly over 7 million. How could I say no to that?”
