Chapter 616 Kowtow

Knowing that this was the personal matters involving the Reeds Family, Sonia did not hope for Toby to be a part of it as she wanted to resolve it herself.

Hence, he respected her wishes and was willing to wait for her here.

She smiled at him before turning around to walk with Daphne to her father’s grave.

Jessica was kneeling in front of the grave. Since she did not have an umbrella, her body was completely drenched from the rain, which made her look like a mess as her hair and clothes stuck to her skin.

Of course, the cruel, savage expression on her face made her look worse.

 

“So-nia!” she said through gritted teeth when she saw Sonia walking toward her. Then, she exerted some force on the ground to try to stand up.

However, as soon as her knees left the ground, the two bodyguards immediately pressed on her shoulders to force her down.

 

With a loud thud, Jessica’s knees slammed into the ground once again, making her yelp in agony. “Let me go! I’m the vice president of Paradigm Co.. If you dare to treat me this way, I’ll fire you! You better believe me!”

With that, she turned around and fiercely glared at the bodyguards behind her.

Both of them shot fearful glances at Sonia, who waved and looked at them calmly.

Then, she turned her gaze to Jessica before speaking in a cold voice, “You can’t even fire them. First of all, you only have the title of being a vice president. Even though you have the right to fire them, as long as I, the chairman, defend them, you won’t stand a chance at all.”

“You…” Jessica glared at Sonia before she smiled sarcastically. “Fine, Sonia. I admit that you are a step ahead of me and that I’ve lost. How ruthless you are!”
