It was one thing to work with each other and another to take revenge.
There weren’t any conflicts between these two matters.
As he finally understood what Sonia meant, Charles gave her a thumbs up. “Sonia, you’re a bright child!”
She replied with a smile, “Alright. Let’s meet those people in charge.”
“Sure.” He nodded and rose to his full height as well.
It was two hours later when they sent those people in charge off.
Since Toby had obviously wanted to partner with them because he wanted to compensate Sonia, most ofthe terms were advantageous toward her.
Naturally, she and those big guns signed the deal without much hiccups.
When Tom heard about it, he quickly informed Toby about the news while Toby’s tightly knitted eyebrowsfinally relaxed. “Alright.” Looks like Sonia finally has dropped the issue of Tina pushing her off the stairssince she accepted the deal.
As he thought about that, Toby finally winded down. “By the way.” He looked up at Tom. “Did you replace outwhose child Sonia is pregnant with?”
Tom shook his head. “Nope. It seems like Miss Reed doesn’t even know she’s pregnant as no one hadever mentioned it, not even Mr. Lane.”
Hence, there was no way for those men whom he arranged to discover the identity of the father ofSonia’s unborn child.
Tom observed as Toby pursed his lips. “President Fuller, why don’t we reveal this to Mr. Lane so that hecan confront Miss Reed about it? She might speak about it if that’s the case.”
Then, Toby’s gaze slightly moved as he seemed tempted.
Nevertheless, he still motioned his hand and somehow rejected Tom. “It’s fine. Let’s just wait and see.”
“Alright.” Tom didn’t say anything else,
At the same time, news that Sonia struck a deal with the subsidiaries of the Fuller Group had spread likewildfire in Paradigm Co, with mixed reactions,
In the president’s oflice, Asher looked like he was in a bad mood. “How’s your investigation? Did youknow why Sonia managed to strike a deal with those from the Fuller Group?”
The secretary standing in front of him cautiously answered, “I’m sorry, but I still can’t investigate thereason behind it, President Dafoe. It seems like this is a private matter between Vice President Reed andPresident Fuller, so it’ll be hard to replace out what happened.”
“Private matter?” His eyes narrowed.
One of the directors at the side made a bold assumption. “Could it be that there’s still something betweenthem, so…”
Asher’s face darkened. “If that is so, it could be possible that’s how Sonia struck the deal with them.”
At that moment, he couldn’t help but feel threatened. If Sonia really manages to secure a deal with themfor the new energy resources, I might really lose about half of the authority in my hands right now.
At that thought, Asher’s fists tightened before he instructed his secretary with a tight voice, “I want you tosecretly investigate the relationship between Sonia and President Fuller. Report to the Gray Familyimmediately if you replace something out of the ordinary.”
“President Dafoe, are you trying to subdue Sonia using the Gray Family?” the director asked before aglint of cunningness flashed past his eyes.
However, Asher sighed. “With President Fuller helping Sonia out, she might really win the bet. Therefore,to stop her from winning, we could only get the Gray Family to help us out.”
“That’s true.” The director nodded. “Since the Young Lady of the Gray Family and President Fuller areengaged, the Gray Family would definitely not let Sonia off the hook if there’s anything between her andPresident Fuller. By then, she can only
dream of securing the partnership for new energy resources with President Fuller’s help.”
“Exactly.” Asher tapped on his office desk with a manipulative look in his eyes.
It was at this moment when someone knocked at the office door, which caused him to frown. “Come in.”
The door was pushed open to reveal Daphne. “President Dafoe, President Reed is requesting you tohead to the meeting room for a meeting.”
“A meeting?” He pursed his lips. “What meeting?”
“It’s regarding the partnership contract earlier,” she replied.
Asher’s face immediately darkened before he answered coldly, “Alright. I’ll head over as soon aspossible.”
“Well, then, I shall inform President Reed about it.” Daphne closed the door and left.
Ten minutes later, he went to the meeting room along with the directors and they ran into Sonia whenthey arrived at the entrance.
Then, she nodded slightly. “President Dafoe.”
“Congratulations for securing a few more deals, President Reed. You’re a really outstanding person.”Asher’s lips slightly curled up before he gave a peculiar greeting.
At the same time, Sonia pushed her hair back. “You’re exaggerating it, President Dafoe.”
“Nah, I’m not exaggerating. I’m just telling the truth since there are not many women who could still takefrom their ex-husband after a divorce in this world,” he replied sarcastically.
Her face darkened as Charles clenched his fists. “What did you just say, old fart?”
“Charles.” She quickly pulled him by his elbow and hinted at him not to do anything irrational.
When Asher, who was initially worried that Charles would punch him, saw Sonia
pulling the man back, he felt relieved and continued jeering, “President Lane, I can’t believe you’reactually generous enough to not do anything when your girlfriend is still having unresolved issues withher ex-husband.”
“You—”
“Charles!” Sonia could feel herself losing her grasp on Charles before she used her other hand to pullhim back. Then, she shook her head. “Don’t be impulsive.”
“Darling, are you listening to what he said?!” He glared at Asher.
“I know. However, whacking him won’t solve anything.”
Then, Sonia released her grip on Charles and took a step forward to shield before she stared at Asherwith cold eyes. “President Dafoe, are you implying that I received these deals because of Toby?”
“Otherwise? Who’s able to secure not just one but a few deals at one go? How could you have done it ifit weren’t for President Fuller? I bet you’re thinking of getting the partnership for the alternative energytechnology through him too,” Asher sneered.
Sonia’s fists clenched tightly in that second before she answered emotionlessly, “Looks like that’s howyou think about me, huh?”
“If you don’t want others to make assumptions about you, you shouldn’t do things like this. I understandthat you want to get more people in the company to favor you using these deals, but have you everconsidered how shameless tactics like this would affect the misunderstanding between Paradigm Co.and Triforce Enterprise?” Asher stared at Sonia coldly.
She then harrumphed, “The misunderstanding between us and Triforce Enterprise wouldn’t deepenanymore since we are already at the end of each other’s throats. Moreover, these deals were given byToby as compensation for Tina, so don’t you think that the Gray Family would have already known aboutit?”
Upon hearing that, he looked dumbfounded. “What do you mean?”
However, Sonia only gave him a cold look before entering the meeting room without any answer.
When Charles walked past Asher, he snarkily added, “I bet you feel embarrassed after
accusing Sonia for using dirty tactics to get those deals when you don’t even know how she scored themand later learning that it’s not what you thought it was, huh?”
Then, he ignored Asher and entered the meeting room as well, leaving Asher in the walkway as his facecontorted from anger.
As the meeting was about the partnership deals, it was a long one.
Since these partnerships had involved all of the industries that Paradigm Co. dabbled in, everyone had aserious discussion with regards to those fields being revived.
The plan to revive was finally established by night time and they only needed to wait until Fuller Group’ssubsidiary companies had sent them the funds to resurrect the stagnant industry for Paradigm Co.
Meanwhile, the company could finally be free from the verge of bankruptcy to start a stable development.
Although Sonia was disgusted by what Toby had done to protect Tina, she had to admit that he hadprovided great assistance to Paradigm Co. this time around.
Nevertheless, this didn’t mean that she would bury the hatchet.
