Chapter 170,Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again!Since Toby allowed it, Tom didn’t need to hold back anymore. He nodded and said, “Miss Gray showedup not long after I accepted Miss Reed’s proposal. She was here to hand in her company’s proposal aswell. Halfway through, I had to leave to make some coffee for Miss Gray, so I left all the proposals in theroom, and there wasn’t anyone besides her back then.” There was no need for further explanation fromTom, since everyone could see Tina was the one who did the switcheroo. Toby stared down,disappointed in Tina’s behavior. “Nonsense!”Titus shot up and glared at Tom. “How dare you slander my daughter! Toby, your assistant is spewinglies!” Titus knew his daughter was the one who did it, but he couldn’t admit to it no matter what.“President Gray, I’m an honest man. I didn’t lie at all. If you don’t believe me, I can show you thesurveillance camera’s footage,” Tom rebutted unhappily. He worked to his bone to get to where he was,so he wouldn’t slander anyone, or he would have been fired a long time ago. All the color drained fromTitus’ face when Tom said he had evidence to back him up.
Sonia mocked, “What a nice daughter you have, President Gray. She went really far to get this deal,didn’t she?” “True. This is an… eye-opening experience, so to speak,” someone agreed. Titus wasfuming, but he couldn’t do anything. All he wanted to do then was replace some place to hide, for there wasnothing but humiliation for him here. He had never felt so embarrassed before, not even when he wasarrested. After all, nobody knew what he did to warrant the arrest, but this time, it was different. Everyoneknew Tina did a switcheroo, and they even thought Titus was behind it.
He could imagine how everyone in the circle would view him after this. Rage was filling Titus up. Hehated Sonia for exposing the truth, for not taking the hit like he wanted her to. He hated Toby forexposing him publicly, but most of all, he hated Tina for doing this. “President Fuller.” Since Titus had lostthe battle, Sonia lost interest in him. So she turned to Toby. “Now that the truth is clear, what will you do,President Fuller? Will you keep working with President Gray, or…” Toby interrupted, “Now that we knowthe truth, I hereby announce that we shall no longer be working with Titus Gray.
President Reed shall be our new partner from now on. Any objections?” He looked at everyone.Everyone shook their heads. “No.” Titus’ spot belonged to Sonia in the first place, and not to mentionSonia’s proposal was a decent one. “What about you, President Gray?” Toby looked at Titus. Titus forceda smile. “No, not at all.” Not that I can do anything even if I do. Toby nodded and turned back to Sonia.“You heard them. What do you think?” “Great.” Sonia was delighted, for she finally got the partnershipafter going through so much. Yes! I won the bet. In your face, Asher. She clenched her fists inexcitement.
A smile curled Toby’s lips as he shared her happiness, but the smile only lasted a moment. He was aboutto say something, but then Sonia blurted, “But this isn’t enough, President Fuller.” Hearing that, everyonein the room buzzed with excitement. Oh ho. Seems like she’s a greedy one. She’s not satisfied with justthe proposal and the deal, huh? Someone’s in trouble. Titus barked, “Don’t push your luck, Sonia!” Soniaglanced at him calmly. “What do you mean ‘push my luck?’ I’m the victim here, so why shouldn’t I get faircompensation? That reminds me, President Gray.
You’re the perpetrator here, and not only are you not apologizing, but you’re even yelling at me. That’s abit too much, don’t you think?” “Why you…” Titus’ eyes were starting to roll to the back from fury. ButSonia ignored him and turned back to Toby. “President Fuller, I handed in my proposal in your company,but yet someone still managed to switch it out. You’re the boss, so take some responsibility here. Youdon’t want everyone losing their trust in the Fuller Group, do you?” “President Reed is right.” Someonenodded. “You should take some responsibility here, President Fuller.”
Toby sat up straight. “We take full responsibility for this fiasco. I sincerely apologize for our staff’smistake, Miss Reed.” Then he stood up, put his hand on his belly, and bowed at her. Tom did the samething. “This is all my fault, Miss Reed. I’m really sorry for this.” Sonia’s mood took a turn for the betterafter they apologized, then she looked at Titus. “President Fuller has apologized. What about you,President Gray?” “You want me to apologize too?” Titus stared at her in disbelief. Sonia smiled. “Whynot? Yes, you weren’t the one who did it, but you could potentially be the mastermind.
Even if you aren’t, you wanted to sweep this under the rug and pretend the proposal’s not mine. If Mr.Brown didn’t bring up the fact that he has evidence, you would have insisted that my proposal is yours.Shouldn’t you apologize for that?” “President Reed is right, President Gray. You insisted that theproposal’s yours, not hers. Everyone saw that too. We know what you were planning, so you’d better saysorry before things get worse for you.” Someone laughed. Titus was shivering with anger, but he couldn’tretort, or everyone would think of him as a joke even more.
He took a deep breath, held his fury down, and glared darkly at Sonia. “Fine, I’ll apologize. I’m sorry.Happy?” “You don’t sound too willing to me, but it’s already good enough that you apologized. I’llreluctantly accept your apology, then.” Sonia chuckled. That almost knocked Titus out. What do youmean ‘reluctantly’? I’ll get back at you for this one day! “Tom,” Toby said all of a sudden. “Tell everyonethat Tina will have to make an appointment every time she wants to come to the company from now on.She’s no longer allowed to come and go as she pleases.”
Tom adjusted his glasses. “Yes, sir.” “Toby, you can’t…” Titus gawked at Toby, for he couldn’t believewhat he just heard. Sonia couldn’t believe it either. Toby looked at her for a moment before turning hisattention to Titus. “This is the price Tina must pay.” Titus wanted to argue, but he couldn’t. From then on,Sonia’s opinion about Toby changed a little, since she never thought he’d actually punish Tina when allhe ever did was spoil her.
Looks like it’s gonna rain gold today. Titus took a deep breath and said, “I don’t feel so good, Toby. I willtake my leave now.” He’d only get humiliated further if he stayed any longer. Toby knew he was justtrying to escape the humiliation, so he nodded. “Send President Gray off, Tom.” “Yes.”
Tom grunted in obligation, then he invited Titus to go with him. After Titus was gone, Toby clapped. “Let’scontinue the meeting, then.” Thus, Sonia sat down and went on with the meeting. On the other hand,Titus stormed back home, obviously upset. Julia was in the middle of her skincare routine when he came
home. She was shocked to see him looking so angry. “You’re early today, dear. Is the meeting donealready?”
“That’s no meeting. I would have had a heart attack if I stayed there any longer.” Titus slammed hisbriefcase down on the sofa. Julia took her facial mask off. “What happened?”
