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

Chapter 780 Furious

If that is the case…

Everyone secretly looked at each other and saw smiles in each other’s eyes.

If it was Toby’s phone that was ringing, they could watch him mess up for once since it was something that they had never witnessed before. After all, he was a faultless person, so it was impossible for others to see him make a fool out of himself.

However, it might not necessarily be the case this time. Of course they were prepared to see him make a fool out of himself since this was the first time in history.

Thinking about it, everyone began to covertly look forward to it in excitement.

Toby didn’t care about these people’s thoughts. He switched on his phone screen and saw that a few messages had popped up. As soon as he saw them, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Well, it was really his phone. Sure enough, he had made a fool of himself earlier when he questioned others, which was why he was now embarrassed.

If it were someone random who sent the messages and dared to embarrass him in public, he would skin them alive. However, the person who sent the messages was his darling, so how could he be willing to do that?

Toby massaged his brows before he turned off his phone and momentarily ignored the few messages from Sonia. He knew that she was not the kind of ignorant person who texted him when she was aware that he was in a meeting. Since she had sent him a message at this time, there was probably something serious happening, but it was not particularly urgent. Otherwise, she would have directly called him.

Thus, it would be fine to read the messages later as the current meeting was much more important.

He set the phone aside, picked up the laser pointer and said nothing. Then, he turned around and calmly walked toward the big screen without any emotion on his face as if he was not the slightest bit embarrassed by the misunderstanding.

All in all, as long as he was not embarrassed, it would be the others who would feel as such, especially when everyone didn’t know what Toby thought. After he saw that it was indeed his phone, he calmly placed it down as if nothing had happened and left those present a little dumbfounded.

What’s going on here?

The subtle expression that Toby had when he looked at the phone earlier told him that it was indeed his phone that was ringing. However, why didn’t Toby feel embarrassed? How were they supposed to see him make a fool of himself if he was not embarrassed?

Everyone looked at each other again and they all saw the disbelief in each other’s eyes.

Sure enough, Toby was still the same person. Even if he was filled with embarrassment, he would not reveal it before them. Ugh, what a pity. I thought we would have a chance…

Everyone shook their heads in regret.

“Let’s continue.” Seeing these people looking downcast, he knew what they were thinking about and snorted coldly, not intending to bother with them.

There were indeed many people who wanted to see him making a fool of himself, but no one had succeeded so far.

The meeting had lasted nearly four hours, after which it finally came to an end. Everyone gathered the documents in front of them and left the conference room in satisfaction.

How could they be dissatisfied? After the plan was set in motion, all they had to do was to wait for the profit. Once the company had made the profit, the shareholders’ pockets would also swell, so they were grinning from ear to ear when they left one by one.

Toby didn’t leave but merely pulled out his chair and sat down to ease his stiff legs.

In this meeting, he was basically standing all the time and he didn’t stop talking. He kept describing the plan, which resulted in his now sore and dry throat. Then, he took a sip of the coffee that had already cooled down in front of him before picking up his phone. He was now ready to check the messages that Sonia had sent.

However, after he finished reading the text, his expression changed as he jumped from his chair angrily. “Tom!”

His shout was filled with an undisguised coldness and hardness. When Tom heard his voice outside, he immediately opened the door to enter. “President Fuller, what’s the matter with you?”

Looking at Toby’s extremely dark face, Tom immediately understood that something bad had happened. However, Toby didn’t answer but merely handed over his phone.

Although Tom didn’t understand what was going on, he still took the phone over. The first thing that he saw was the nickname of ‘Little Leaf’ on the top of the screen, which made him raise his eyebrows involuntarily.

Why is President Fuller showing me his chat record with Miss Reed? Could it be that he wants to show off his relationship with her? If so….

He forced a smile on his face. If this was the case, he didn’t want to see it, but he couldn’t throw the phone aside either. As he thought about it in irritation, he still read the chat as per Toby’s orders. Tom had initially thought it was an intimate conversation between Toby and Sonia, but what he didn’t expect was her saying that someone had trespassed Toby’s office to look for documents.

“President Fuller, this…” Tom’s expression had also changed as he hurriedly looked at Toby. No wonder President Fuller was so angry earlier. He thought that it was because the couple were arguing with each other and never once expected Toby’s reaction to be a result of this revelation at all.

“It’s Damon Lore.” Toby tightly pursed his thin lips and uttered these words in an emotionless voice.

Tom returned the phone to Toby. “He hasn’t given up.”

Toby sneered. “He is not satisfied with being an idle shareholder because he is the veteran of the Fuller Group. He has always wanted to be a shareholder with real power, the kind who can influence my decision-making and pave the way for the younger generation of the Lore Family. The document on that infrastructure project is the only way for him to gain real power, so he certainly won’t give up.”

“That’s true.” Tom nodded. “There is something wrong with that infrastructure plan, though. Otherwise, President Fuller, you wouldn’t have been holding back from implementing it all these while. After all, it’s a mega-project worth tens of billions.”

“He couldn’t see the problem, though; he thought I was a fool who refused to make money, that’s why he repeatedly mentioned the implementation of the plan to me and asked me to hand over the plan to him with full responsibility. He thought that as long as he does a good job on it, I and the other shareholders will not object nor dare to object if he asks for real power later. After all, he will become a hero who has made great contributions to the Fuller Group. However, he really didn’t think it through. Am I really the kind of person who refuses to make money? If this plan is so good, will I keep holding it back?” Toby added with a frosty face.

Tom sighed. “Yes, there are too many problems in this plan and there are many government departments to be involved. If you are not careful, it will all collapse. By that time, the Fuller Group will definitely run into huge problems. Mr. Lore is really a piece of work, though. After he wasn’t able to obtain the planning documents from you, he actually had someone come to your office to replace them. It’s just…”

He didn’t finish his words as it was clear that he wanted to say how brainless Damon Lore was.

For a questionable project, he had completely offended Toby! As a result, Damon was now finished.

“Let’s head back to the office!” Toby grabbed his phone and strode out of the conference room. He wanted to hurry back to the office to check on Sonia’s situation. When Damon’s thief entered the office, she was alone, so she was probably scared.

Thinking that Sonia was probably afraid at that time, Toby felt his heart constricting in distress. Soon, he returned to the office and opened the door himself without waiting for Tom to do it.

“Little Leaf…” Before Toby’s words were fully said, Toby suddenly saw Sonia asleep on the couch and immediately swallowed the words that he wanted to express.

Behind him was Tom, who saw that he had stopped and didn’t go any forward, so he asked, “President Fuller, what’s the matter?”

Toby raised his hand and lowered his voice. “It’s okay; go and check on Damon first to see who he had sent to my office.”

“Yes.” Tom nodded in agreement and turned to do as ordered.

Then, Toby closed the door of the office and quietly walked toward the sofa.
