Sonia was surprised to see Tom, but she was even more surprised when he told her to get into the car. She glanced toward the back seat window. It was tinted, so she couldn’t tell if there was anyone sitting in the back. “Do I have to do what you say?” She was reluctant to go along with Tom’s words.

“President Fuller is the one who told you to get in,” Tom replied.

 

“No thanks.” Sonia’s gaze darkened when she heard Toby’s name. Similarly, Toby’s expression dimmed when he heard her rejection from his seat in the back of the Maybach. He immediately lowered his window to stick his stern, cold face out in the cold air. “Get in!” His voice made it clear that there was no room for negotiation.

Sonia shifted her calm gaze toward him. “I just said that there’s no need for that, President Fuller. Don’t you understand my words?” What’s up with this guy? Isn’t it normal for me to decline his offer? I’m not related to him, anyway. Who is he to get mad at me? What an odd guy.

He frowned when he heard the impatience in her voice. He was tempted to get Tom to drive off since she refused to get in. But he held his temper back when he saw her rosy cheeks that were flushed from the piercing cold. “What are you doing here?” he asked in a deep voice.

She could tell that he was tempted to leave, yet she didn’t know what made him stay. She couldn’t be bothered to guess what was going on in his mind. “I’m waiting for the tow truck,” she uttered flatly.

 

“It looks like Miss Reed’s car broke down, President Fuller,” Tom added after he took a glance at Sonia’s car.
