This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

In order to save herself the embarrassment of chasing Sonia away like she did to the other women, the receptionist tried hard to keep her name in mind. However, she didn’t expect the day she met Sonia in person would come so soon.

So, this is Miss Reed—the lady whom President Fuller has been crazy about. Oh my gosh! I’m so fortunate to run into her now, and I must receive her with hospitality. Who knows, she may give me a large tip if I could make her feel happy?

Getting carried away with her imagination, the receptionist looked at Sonia as if she was gazing at a generous tycoon who was about to give away her money. Thus, she poured Sonia a glass of water and treated her cordially. “Please have a glass of water, Miss Reed. I’ll pass on the word about your arrival.”

“Thank you.” Sonia nodded a smile. In fact, she had actually tried to contact Toby when she was on her way there but failed to get an answer from Toby, whom she thought was probably busy at that moment. Thus, she had no choice but to approach the front desk and request help to contact the man.

“You’re welcome,” the receptionist replied, and reached for the telephone before dialing a number.

On the other hand, Tom happened to just exit from the elevator with a stack of files in his hands when he heard his phone ringing. Upon shifting the files to his left arm, he rummaged through his pocket for his phone and answered the call. “Hello, what’s up?”

“Tom, Miss Reed is here. She is actually just right beside me now.” The receptionist shot a gaze at Sonia.

“What did you say? Sonia is here?” Tom froze in his tracks.

“Yes.” The receptionist nodded.

A surprised look flashed across Tom’s face as he wondered to himself. I can’t believe Sonia is here. “What did she come here for?” Tom asked.

“She wants to see President Fuller,” the receptionist answered.

Tom was rendered speechless after hearing the receptionist’s answer, thinking he had just asked a silly question because there was no one else Sonia would come a long way to see besides Toby. Soon, he curled his lips upward and took a deep breath to keep himself together. Then, he said, “Alright, I heard you. I’ll see President Fuller and tell him about it while you receive Miss Reed.”

“Sure.” The receptionist responded with an affirmative hum.

meantime, Toby responded with silence while squinting in a ponderous manner. In fact, he was aware of Sonia’s call about half an hour ago and had no idea why she was calling him. He was just sitting in his chair, tempted to answer Sonia’s call, when his
