When Sonia and Toby looked up, they saw Zane walking toward them while twirling the car keys on his fingers. Toby narrowed his eyes as he glanced at Zane and Sonia with a frown on his face. Why would she get Zane to fetch her? Since when has their relationship progressed this far?

On the other hand, Zane was surprised to see Toby. “Why are you here with President Reed, Toby? Are you two on a date?” He pointed at the two of them teasingly.

 

After setting the ice pack aside, Sonia rolled her eyes at him. “Stop spouting nonsense. I came for a business negotiation and just happened to bump into President Fuller.”

“Is that so?” Zane caressed his chin in disbelief. Seeing that Toby said nothing to affirm or deny the claim, Zane pouted, bored by the uneventful exchange. Then, he was startled when he saw Sonia’s swollen ankle. “President Reed, what happened to your leg?”

“I sprained my ankle,” Sonia replied casually while putting her heels back on.

Zane tutted. “The sprain looks quite severe. You must have hurt your bones.”

 

“So, your next mission will be sending me to the hospital.” Sonia raised her head to look at him.
