Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again
Chapter 770

Chapter 770 Thank Sonia

Anya’s body shook as she could tell that Tom was giving her a warning, but she couldn’t do anything about it. Currently, she was in a vulnerable position and had no right to refuse anything.

At the thought of that, Anya clenched her fists before she took a deep breath to force herself to calm down and answered with a tense voice, saying, “I… I understand.”

Looks like I won’t be able to avoid making a public apology to Sonia and explaining the reason I have to apologize. Still, I can cover my face during the broadcast so that no one will be able to replace out my real identity and hurt me. Since they didn’t mention that I can’t cover my face to hide my identity, I’ll take advantage of that!

Anya’s facial expression got better when she thought of that.

Not knowing what Anya was thinking about, Tom adjusted his glasses before he said in a nonchalant manner, “That’s good to know. You can arrange the broadcast according to your timing, but I’m hoping that you can schedule it as soon as possible. Is that alright?”

“Sure,” Anya answered quietly with a hint of spasmodic sobs while lowering her head to hide her emotions.

Nevertheless, Tom only frowned and didn’t say anything when he noticed that she was crying, as it was normal to cry when one was about to face cyberbullying, after all.

“Alright, then. I’ll be leaving now, and you should do so as well. As for President Fuller’s compensation, I’ll arrange for someone to contact you later on, and you can pass everything to that person. Do not show up in front of any of us ever again after this.”

Then, Tom prepared to leave. Suddenly, he felt the phone in his pocket vibrating. At this moment, he paused to check his phone before a shocked look appeared on his face, and the way he looked at Anya changed a little.

At the same time, Anya’s eyes glistened when she noticed the change in Tom’s look before she asked curiously, “What’s wrong, Mr. Brown? Is there anything on my face?”

Immediately, Tom kept his phone and recomposed himself before his facial expression became calm again, and he replied in a collected manner, “There’s nothing on your face. However, there’s good news for you. President Fuller had decided to let you broadcast your apology to Miss Reed without explaining the reason behind the apology.”

Upon hearing that, Anya looked taken aback before a surprised look appeared on her face. “Is that true? Mr. Brown, are you serious? I’m not hearing things wrongly, am I?” She quickly grabbed Tom by his arm.

As Anya was overly excited, her grip on Tom’s arm was extremely forceful, causing Tom to wince with pain. “Let go of me!”

Tom’s voice quivered as he was really in pain. Even though his arm was covered by his shirt, he could still feel Anya’s nails digging into his flesh as if they had pierced through his shirt. From that, it was obvious how forceful she was.

When Anya noticed Tom’s face twisting in pain, a joyful glint flashed past her gaze before it disappeared, and an anxious look quickly appeared on her face. Then, she removed her hand and apologized profusely, “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry, Mr. Brown. I didn’t do it on purpose. Are you alright?”

Nevertheless, Tom unfeelingly chuckled when he saw the fingernail marks on his sleeve. Am I alright? Isn’t it obvious that I’m in pain, considering she had even left fingernail marks on my shirt?

Tom had his hand on his injured arm before staring at the teary and lost woman in front of him emotionlessly before he asked coldly, “Did you do it on purpose?”

“What?” Anya looked taken aback as if she didn’t understand what Tom meant, while Tom narrowed his eyes and stared at her. “What I meant was, did you purposely grab my arm?”

Anya’s eyes widened. “How is that possible?!” She quickly shook her head and motioned her hands around. “I definitely didn’t do it on purpose. It’s true, Mr. Brown. You have to believe me. I just lost my composure because I was really happy. Besides, why would I deliberately do that?”

“Why?” Tom sneered. “Because I was really rude to you, and I’ve offended you just now, so you have the perfect opportunity to take revenge on me.”

“That’s not true!” Anya shook her head furiously. “I’m not like that. You have to believe me, Mr. Brown. I don’t have any thoughts of taking revenge on you at all.”

While she explained herself, she went from tearful to full-on bawling as droplets of tears started falling down her eyes.

At that moment, Tom panicked, as he didn’t expect Anya to start crying just like that. It was as if he had done something wrong to her. Yet, all he did was raise his suspicions. Hence, he was truly taken aback when Anya started bawling.

Right then, Tom started feeling annoyed as he massaged his temple. “Alright. Stop crying. You didn’t do it on purpose, then.”

Although he believed Anya did it purposely, he couldn’t do anything about it as Anya cried and refused to admit it. If Tom legitimately forced her to admit it, she might even pull some dirty tricks to make it look as if he bullied her. Therefore, he had no choice but to let things go.

Still, Anya acted as if she hadn’t heard how unwilling Tom sounded and broke into a smile. “I knew you were a fair person, after all.”

Once again, Tom chuckled coldly. How dare she claim she didn’t do it purposely when she quickly took my cue and tried to please me? If she really didn’t do it purposely, she would have been upset when she heard how unwilling I was and would have tried to argue to change my mind, but she didn’t do that at all. It’s obvious that she did it on purpose based on her reaction.

Still, that didn’t matter anymore, as Tom had no choice but to let things go.

“By the way, Mr. Brown, why did President Fuller suddenly change his mind?” Anya stared at Tom intently before she asked.

Meanwhile, Tom flicked on the wrinkle on his sleeve before he answered emotionlessly, “President Fuller is worried that you might get harmed, so he changed his mind and wants you to apologize only.”

Upon hearing that, Anya had her eyes glistened before her face brightened up visibly. “President Fuller is really a good person.”

Tom’s lips twitched a little when he heard her.

A good person? Did she misunderstand the definition of a good person? The only reason President Fuller wanted her to broadcast her apology was to allow the public to criticize her. Although she didn’t have to explain why she apologized now and she wouldn’t be attacked as much anymore, the speculations about her action definitely wouldn’t decrease. She would still be chastised publicly but with lesser consequences. Despite that, it would still be damaging to a woman’s reputation. Knowing all that, she actually thinks President Fuller is a good person? Is she seriously blinded because of love?

While Tom roasted Anya mentally, he pursed his lips. “You should be thanking Miss Reed instead of President Fuller.”

“What?” The smile on Anya’s face froze. “Miss Reed?”

“That’s right.” Tom nodded. “President Fuller told me that Miss Reed was the one who wanted him to do so. It wasn’t his decision, and he was only going along with Miss Reed’s wishes, so you should be thanking Miss Reed instead.”

This time, Anya’s facial expression froze completely before her hand that was grasping the armrest clenched up as well. It’s Sonia’s doing! I can’t believe that I thought this was Toby’s decision when Sonia had been the one behind this all along. Are they trying to humiliate me by making me thank Sonia?

When Tom noticed the look on Anya’s face, he narrowed his eyes. “What’s wrong, Miss Steinfeld? Are you unwilling to accept Miss Reed’s kindness and thank her for it?”
