Chapter 169,Boss, Your Wife's Asking for A Divorce, Again!

The whole time, Toby was observing the changes in Sonia’s expressions, and for some unknownreason, he couldn't bear it when he saw her looking disappointed. However, with the quality of herproposal, he couldn't open up the back door for her no matter how much he couldn't bear it.Knowing that he had obtained the last partnership slot, Titus laughed happily. As he knew the levelof his proposal, it would be impossible to obtain a spot in the partnership. However, he still got it inthe end. Judging from this, it looks like Toby really threw out his principle of not engaging in insiderbusiness for Tina's sake and opened up the back door for me, his father-in-law, he thought, thesatisfaction growing in his eyes as he peered at Toby.

He's really my amazing son-in-law! On the other hand, Toby merely furrowed his brows inconfusion, wondering, What's up with the look in Titus’ eyes? Without pondering over it further, hesmacked his lips and said indifferently, “The five partners have been decided. At this same timetomorrow, you can go to Fuller Group to sign the contract. I'm going to disclose these fiveproposals and let those who didn’t make the cut have a look to see why they were not selected andwhere they lost.” “Good idea,” someone agreed with a nod. Sonia was also one of them who was inagreement with this idea, as she wanted to know as well how much different her proposal was fromtheirs.

Despite that, she was paralyzed with shock when she saw the proposal Tom published on the publicscreen. “How could this happen?!” she gasped out loud subconsciously. One after another, everyoneturned their attention to her. “What happened, President Reed?” Mr. Lanster, who was seated nextto her, asked in puzzlement. Instead of answering him, Sonia was staring fixedly on the screen thatwas displaying Titus’ proposal. “President Fuller, can you please tell me why my proposal is stampedwith President Gray's name?” What? Toby wondered, frowning and swirling around to look at thescreen behind himself.

After he peered at Titus’ proposal and couldn't replace anything amiss, he turned back again. “This isPresident Gray's proposal.” This was the same proposal he went through yesterday that belonged toTitus. However, a guilty look crept over Titus’ face. In fact, he already saw something amiss when hisproposal was displayed on the screen—the proposal with his name written over it wasn't even hisproposal. Even though he was shocked, he didn't voice it out because he could only let the wrongspiral down the wrong path.

Furthermore, it had dawned on him that he obtained the partnership slot because of this proposal,and not because Toby had opened up the back door for him for Tina's sake. Therefore, all the morereason he couldn't admit that this wasn't his proposal. Despite that, it was beyond his imaginationthat this was actually that wretched girl's proposal, and she even cried out loudly. “That's nonsense,Toby Fuller!” Sonia was so mad with rage when she heard Toby say that the proposal belonged toTitus that she was shaking all over from the fury and couldn't care less to address him as “PresidentFuller,” calling him by his full name instead. “This is my proposal. How dare you guys stamp TitusGray's name over my proposal and let him claim it as his?"

When everyone heard her accusing Toby of stamping Titus’ name over the proposal, they were allshocked. Narrowing his eyes, Toby asked, “So you're saying that we are the ones who changed yourproposal to President Gray's?” “Isn't that what happened?” Sonia snapped, glaring at him coldly. “Ireally didn't think that you guys could be so shameless,” she continued agitatedly. “Just to let himhave a slot in the partnership spot, you guys used such underhand tactics.” If her proposal was reallyterrible and was eliminated, she could naturally accept defeat with ease.

However, the truth wasn't the case. In contrast, her proposal was excellent. Otherwise, Titus wouldn'thave snatched it and obtained the partnership slot. Because of that, she would never let this matterrest so easily. Looking at Sonia who was hopping mad with rage, Toby then turned to look at Titus,who was obviously looking guilty with his head lowered, and he realized that she was telling thetruth—the proposal on the screen was really hers, and not Titus’. How could Titus steal somebody'sproposal and pass it off as his own! he thought. His eyes squinted dangerously, and a layer of grim,somber air started to build up around him.

From this, everyone could tell that he was mad. “I'm not the one who stamped the name,” he said ina serious tone, looking at Sonia. Seeing how serious he seemed, Sonia felt a little appeased andasked, “Is it really not you?” “There's no reason for me to do this,” he answered. Sonia bit her lip. Shecould tell that he was telling the truth, and she concluded, So he really didn't know that the nameon the proposal had been changed. “President Gray, since President Fuller already said that this hasnothing to do with him, it looks like the culprit can only be you.

Please explain to me how my proposal became yours!” she questioned in a cold voice, her eyesfixed on Titus. For the onlookers, they couldn't be happier if this issue blew up, and they startedspeaking out in amusement. “That's right, President Gray. Tell us, is this really your proposal?” “Yeah,give us an explanation.” Listening to these people's questions, Titus slammed the table and sprangup from his seat as the fire of fury ignited within him. “What else can I say? Of course this is myproposal!” “But President Reed said it belongs to her,” someone chirped. Titus turned to Sonia, andhis eyes flashed. Trying his best to feign composure, he said, “Is this really yours just because yousaid so?"

“Do you think I can't even recognize my own proposal?” Sonia retorted, chuckling from anger. Theguilt within Titus intensified, but admitting it publicly would be the last thing he did. “Fine, since youthink it's yours, then tell me how the signature on the proposal became mine in the end. Don'taccuse me of stealing it because I have been to neither Paradigm Co. nor Fuller Group. So how did Isteal it?” Stumped, Sonia was suddenly out of words to argue. He has a point, she thought. Titushadn't been to her company, and she would always either lock the proposal in a drawer or bring itstraight home every time after she was finished with a part of it.

There was no way he could have bribed someone in her company to steal it, either. In addition, Tobyhad said that he didn’t change the name on the proposal, but her proposal was now written underTitus’ name. Just what the hell is going on? she wondered. Seeing that Sonia was at a loss for words,Titus turned gleeful and added, “You can't answer me, can you? Since you have no answer for that,then you—" "Tom," Toby interjected suddenly. Titus’ eyes darted to him, his heart fluttering withpanic. Toby tapped his finger on the conference desk a couple of times and asked, “Are you the onewho personally collected Miss Reed's proposal?” “Yes,” Tom answered, nodding. Lifting his chin,Toby said, “Looks like the problem arose after you accepted the proposal.”

After hearing that, Sonia eyeballed Tom nervously, her eyes filled with suspicion. Knowing that shewas suspecting whether he was bribed by Titus, Tom waved his hands hastily and explained, “MissReed, please believe that I didn't do anything.” As Toby's special assistant, he was not an easyperson to bribe. Moreover, Toby already promised him that he would give him 0.5 percent of theoriginal shares once he finished working for ten years. Although it was a very small portion ofshares, judging from the market value of Fuller Group, that 0.5 percent of shares was worth a fewbillions.

Hence, why would he give up billions and settle for a few hundred of thousands from acceptingsomeone's bribe? “If you didn't do anything, then please tell me how my proposal became his,”Sonia demanded, pointing a finger at Titus. She had to get to the bottom of this issue no matterwhat. Chuckling bitterly, Tom answered, “I'm sorry, Miss Reed, but I really don't know. I personallysent your proposal to President Fuller's office.

On the way, I didn't pass by...” As though something came into his mind at this point, he trailed off,and his eyes widened. Seeing his face, Toby squinted his eyes. “Did you replace out something?” Tom'smouth parted. “I thought of a possibility, but...” Then, he shifted his eyes, which was filled with acomplicated look, to Titus.

Catching his eye, Titus felt his heart drop, and the expression on his face turned sullen. Clearly, heunderstood what had transpired. “Mr. Brown, please say it!” Sonia pressed urgently, her eyes gluedon him. However, Tom turned to Toby instead, seeking his approval. Toby nodded and said, “Just sayit.”
