Chapter 1064
Toby spoke in such a definite tone that Sonia no longer could come up with any words to rebuke that. However, she
was quite pleased to know that she remained Toby's first choice regardless of the situation. As such, she would not
have to worry about him brushing off this matter because of Harry's identity as his teacher.
Still, she was not a heartless person and it was not her intention to force him into cutting ties with his mentor. After
all, she was not intent on pursuing this matter relentlessly either and insisted on making Lynette pay the price.
However, she realized that if she relented this time and let the other party off the hook through connections, then
not only would they not be appreciative, they would most likely find her weak and easily overcome. From then on,
they would only behave worse than ever toward her because they assumed she would go easy on them for the
sake of Toby.
At that point, she realized that it was okay to not be unconditionally kind and considerate all the time. Who knew,
one might just be digging their own pitfall when they allowed others to take advantage of their kindness. Besides,
Toby was the one linked to the Lores, not her.
There was a glint that flashed across Sonia's eyes that disappeared soon enough.
Charles, who had been standing by the side while continuously doubting Toby's words and going against everything
that he said, was finally at a loss for words at that moment. After all, Toby had spoken and he would definitely seek
justice for Sonia. He was also willing to cut off ties with the Lores, so there was nothing else that Charles could
come up with to refute that. In fact, Charles was impressed by Toby. Toby was an extremely logical man and he was
also showcased as an emotionally stable person as he was not a wishy-washy person who would somehow be led
by his emotions. Ultimately, he knew that as long as Toby maintained his sense of logic and level-headedness, then
it would be quite unlikely for Sonia to encounter any unhappy situations. As such, Charles no longer shot his snide
remarks at him, despite reserving some displeasure toward the man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, Toby was not interested to know what Charles thought about it. In fact, he did not even bother to cast
eyes on that childish man. Toby ruffled Sonia's hair and stood up as he spoke, "Since you've figured out the
perpetrator behind this incident, you should just let me deal with the rest."
Sonia moved her red lips slightly as she attempted to say something, but Toby's phone suddenly went off and
interrupted her words. With no other option, she kept her mouth shut and gestured at him to answer the phone
first.
Comprehending her gesture, Toby fished out his phone to glance at the screen. He noticed that it was a call from
Tom, so he figured that it must be something urgent. Without any hesitation, he answered the phone and placed it
next to his ears. "Yes?"
"President Fuller, I just got back from Squirrel Media and I've found out the perpetrator behind this incident after
interrogating the fatso, Mitch." On the other end of the phone, Tom walked out of the front doors of Squirrel Media
and stood in front of the car as he turned back to glance at the building where Squirrel Media was located. At that
moment, there was a somber look on his face.
Toby heard Tom's words and a dangerous look flickered in his eyes as he narrowed them slightly. "Go on."
Tom knew that Toby wanted him to continue recounting what Tom found out, so he took a deep breath and
collected himself from his complicated feelings before slowly voicing out, "That fatso mentioned that... that..." Tom
repeated himself several times, but he did not get to the main point.
At that moment, Toby's brows were furrowed tightly and there was an evident look of impatience on his face. "I'll
hang up if you don't tell me what's going on."
"Okay, okay, I'll explain things." Tom was quite worried that Toby would hang up on him, so he quickly responded
and indicated that he would no longer behave hesitantly and stammer his words.
Indeed, Toby took the phone and placed it next to his ears once again. "Hurry up and tell me."
Tom responded affirmatively and at the same time, he seemed to have made up his mind too. He shut his eyes for
a moment and after he opened them, there was no longer a lost look in his eyes. Instead, it was now a calm look in
his eyes and he finally finished off the sentence that he could not continue earlier.
"President Fuller, the fatso from Squirrel Media said that this incident was initiated by Miss Lynette Lore and she
instructed him to do so. One week ago. Miss Lore contacted the fatso by phone and told him to arrange for some
tabloid reporters to tail Miss Reed in an attempt to take some compromising photos of Miss Reed with someone of
the opposite gender. However, one week went by and the tabloid reporters didn't manage to take any scandalous
photos, so Squirrel Media then attempted to come up with some fake photos and target Miss Reed. However,
before they proceeded with that, the sight of Miss Reed and Mr. Lane entering a hotel together was caught by a
tabloid reporter tailing Miss Reed. So, that was how the scandal broke on the internet."
Pausing momentarily, Tom continued as he did not get a response or an idea of what Toby was thinking about.
"According to him, Miss Lore did that because she is interested in you, President Fuller. That's why she purposely
created a scandal relating to Miss Reed to cause your breakup."
"I know that." Toby glanced at Sonia before responding in a cold voice.
Meanwhile, Tom was quite stunned as he instantly exclaimed, "You already knew?! President Fuller, did you know it
was her all this time, as well as her motive? "
Toby grunted affirmatively.
At that point, Tom gasped. This is impossible! I've just come out of Squirrel Media, so logically speaking, I should be
the first to find out. How did President Fuller find out before me?
"Little Leaf told me everything." Toby could seem to read Tom's mind, so he recounted how he found out about
everything.
The proud woman revealed a slight smile upon hearing his words as she could guess from his words the details of
their conversation.
As for Charles, he already had his phone out and he was currently engrossed in a mobile game. After all, Toby was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnow aware of the matter and he had firmly expressed that he would stand by Sonia no matter what happened. As
such, Charles had nothing to worry about and he decided to just leave everything to Toby.
"Gosh, was Miss Reed the one who actually told you this?" Tom exclaimed in surprise and there was an incredulous
look on his face. What's going on? How did Miss Reed find out? I just found out about this not long ago, so how is
she a step ahead of me? Since when did Miss Reed become so much more influential than President Fuller? Tom
found the situation quite perplexing.
Toby was clearly aware of what was running through Tom's mind. At that moment, Toby had his eyes on Sonia and
there was a proud look on them. "Just because we managed to dig the dirt directly from Squirrel Media doesn't
mean Little Leaf can't either!"
Meanwhile, Sonia felt slightly awkward under his intent look but at the same time, she found him quite sweet too.
She did not think that she was as great as he portrayed her to be, so she was fairly surprised to see him be so
proud of her. Nonetheless, she was happy that he felt so proud of her and he showed it by being so smug about the
situation. This man... Sonia shook her head with a smile.
On the other end of the phone call, Tom was rendered speechless by Toby's words. Heh! I can tell that President
Fuller's mocking me for being idiotic and not realizing such a simple thing. Well, in fact, I didn’t think of that, so I
guess I am quite idiotic. At that moment, Tom felt quite crushed.
However, Toby paid no heed to Tom's current feelings and he slowly returned to his normal self as he made up his
mind to admire Sonia in private. Subsequently, Toby went back to his cold, indifferent self. "How's the editor doing?"
As soon as Toby asked that, Sonia's ears twitched slightly and she leaned closer to him. Evidently, she wanted to
listen to their conversation. From Toby's earlier statement about Sonia's intelligence earlier, she could tell that Tom
must have used similar means to find out about the truth too. The only difference lay in that she had threatened
the person working for the editor to betray him and get information. However, Toby must have gone straight to the
source and interrogated the chief editor. Otherwise, Toby would not have asked how the editor was currently doing.
Furthermore, based on her understanding of Toby's personality, he must have used some strong-armed tactics
during the interrogation process. Therefore, she was keen to find out the consequences of the chief editor too.
