Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 1087

Indeed, he didn't have the capability to ask Toby to return the goods to him after the latter had seized them.

However, he was never the kind of person who would keep his grievances to himself. He couldn't fight against Toby

openly as the latter was rich and powerful. Still, he could secretly put a spoke in Toby's wheel to disgust him.

A hint of excitement flashed across Xander's face when he realized what Connor meant. He immediately replied

with a nod, "Yes, Mr. Salzburg. I'll get it done right away."

"Just go." Connor waved his hand.

Xander left quickly to make the necessary arrangements.

Connor picked up the remote control and replayed the paused video of the opera, upon which the video started

playing again. Unfortunately, this time he was no longer in the pleasant mood he had been in as he rewatched the

video.

Toby was still unaware that Connor was already setting a trap for him. At this moment, he and Sonia arrived at the

police station. He had just parked the car, unbuckled his seat belt, and was about to get out of the car when his

phone rang. It was a phone call from Tom.

Sonia released her grip on the car door handle when she saw that. "Answer it. We'll get out of the car after you

finish talking."

"Give me a minute." Toby nodded slightly before swiping his thumb across the phone's screen. Then, he held the

phone to his ear as he spoke. "Hello?"

Tom's apparently excited voice sounded through the phone. "President Fuller, what we did to Triforce Enterprise

was a success. Chief Dunlap has heard the information disclosed by our men. After he left the company, he went to

the Mining Resources Bureau right away to check the files on the mine collapse back then."

"Uh-huh," Toby mumbled. "Got it."

"It's too bad that Titus did a clean job of destroying the evidence back then. Regrettably, the conclusive evidence is

gone, or he'd absolutely be shot to death. How ironic that we can only make him pay an astronomical

compensation in retribution at the moment," Tom said with a sigh of regret.

Toby pursed his lips before turning to look at Sonia. "I'm also to blame for this. Titus went out of his way to borrow

some of my men while getting rid of some of the evidence back then, which was why I knew about this. If I had

been able to stop him from destroying the evidence, or if I had been able to get my hands on the evidence before

he did, he wouldn't have been so lucky right now."

When Sonia noticed how the man blamed himself for how things had turned out this way, she patted his hand and

reassured him with a smile, "What are you feeling sorry about? You were hypnotized into thinking you loved Tina

back then. Titus is her father, so it was normal for you to help him. It's just that I never thought you'd help him with

this kind of thing."

Toby replied with a frown, "I didn't know Titus had borrowed my men to get rid of such evidence. I wouldn't have

lent my men to him if I had known about this. I shielded him at the time for Tina's sake, but I wouldn't be so

unscrupulous. We're talking about the lives of 15 people here." He thought nothing of people's lives, nor did he care

about the lives of others, but he wouldn't act with no regard for human life as Titus did. Not only did the latter not

stop after people were killed, but he even made a special effort to hide it and destroy the evidence.

Sonia let out a disbelieving gasp when she heard the figure. "What? 15 lives, you say?"

Toby nodded. "That's right; there were 15 of them. I was also shocked upon learning about this. When Titus asked

me to lend him my men back then, I didn't know what he was trying to do, so I simply lent my men to him without

asking him about it. It wasn't until when my men came back later that I realized Titus had actually done such a

thing. It was my mistake." As he had said, had he known earlier that Titus would do such a thing, he wouldn't have

lent him his men.

"You're not to blame for this." Sonia looked at him with a smile. "After all, who would've known that Titus would do

such a thing? Even if you asked him about it, I don't think he'd tell you the truth either."

Toby's eyes were full of regret as he massaged his temples. "I just regret it. I could've helped you obtain the

conclusive proof that could crush Titus, but I let it slip through my fingers just like that."

Sonia tucked her hair behind her ears. "You don't have to blame yourself for this. This is fate; no one knows what

will happen in the future, and neither do you. You didn't know at the time that the situation would turn out the way it

does today, so you don't have to think that this is your fault. Perhaps God doesn't want us to crush him so easily.

Well, there's no way we could destroy him now, but we can at least weaken his influence. Then, when he goes to

prison in the future, he'll realize that not only has he ended up going to prison anyway, but he's even spent a lot

more money. Isn't such an outcome even better?" she said while covering her mouth with a chuckle.

Toby stared at her for a while before ruffling her hair. "You're right."

Sonia raised her chin to signal Toby to look at his phone. "Alright, hurry and answer Tom's phone call, or he'd still be

waiting."

The phone conversation with Tom was still ongoing. Toby pressed the phone against his ear again as he instructed,

"Pay more attention to Titus' side and help Chief Dunlap in secret as much as you can. If he pursues the case the

wrong way, have someone correct him. I want Titus to lose a fortune this time." As he spoke, a cold glint flickered in

his eyes.

Tom replied with a nod, "Alright, President Fuller. By the way, things are going smoothly on Connor's side. The goods

have been intercepted; they're all custom-made high-quality goods from abroad. Connor's quite willing to spend the

money."

"He intended to use that batch of goods to open up the Lacralian market, so he had to get a batch of high-quality

ones, of course. Nonetheless, this batch of goods is now ours," Toby replied as his thin lips curved into a smirk.

Tom scratched his head. "But, President Fuller, that batch of goods isn't useful to us. Our company doesn't do the

processing of goods."

Toby decided the goods' destination at once. "Have them delivered to Paradigm Co."

Sonia didn't expect to be involved in this. Rather, she looked up in surprise, asking, "Why are you delivering the

goods to Paradigm Co.?"

Toby turned to look at him. "Isn't Paradigm Co. specialized in the processing of goods?"

Sonia laughed. "Yes, it is, but we don't do the routine processing of goods. We only do the processing of heavy

industry spare parts. I've looked into the Salzburg Group before. The company mainly deals with processing

electrical engines, so I can roughly guess that the goods you intercepted are chips or engine bearings. Even if I

have these, I can't process them."

"You can use the batch of processing machines you ordered from Kosovo to process and assemble engines with a

little modification. So, you can give it a try using this batch of goods first. If the processing of the engines ends up

being a success, Paradigm Co. will be able to develop a new line of business, which is good for the company's

growth," Toby explained.

Sonia was startled. "Is that possible?"

Tom quickly chimed in over the phone, "Miss Reed, what President Fuller said is indeed true. The batch of large

processing machines you ordered can indeed be modified to process sophisticated things like engines."

Now that Tom had said the same thing, Sonia's heartbeat quickened in anticipation. She was somewhat tempted,

but she couldn't come to a decisive decision after pondering the matter. After all, reforming a company was no

trifling matter, so she couldn't rush into a decision.

Still, when Toby saw how tempted and hesitant she was, he took her hand in his, brought it to his lips, and kissed it.

"There's no need to feel torn about it. All you have to do is give it a try. And besides, these goods are snatched from

Connor; they're a token of apology for how he snatched your goods last time. They don't cost money, so you won't

lose money by giving them a try. Moreover, such an opportunity is hard to come by, so there's no harm in trying. If

you miss out on it, it's hard for such an opportunity to arise the second time."
