Chapter 1020


    On this side of the phone, Sonia''s red lips twitched as she listened to Daphne''s guess. She thought


    that Toby might have done it as well. In the entire Seafield, he was the only one who did not have to


    respect Connor and was able to take the parts back from him without any effort. After all, Connor


    would never take the initiative to return it.


    However, how did he know that Connor stole herpany’s parts? She was pretty sure she had


    never told him. Could it be that he had ced a spy in herpany again, and was really watching


    her as Charles had guessed before? As she recalled what Charles had said in the past, Toby must


    have ced some of his people in Paradigm Co., and it was not impossible for him to receive


    reports about her in every detail all the time. Otherwise, how could he know about the parts?


    As she pondered, Sonia frowned, feeling a little unhappy. How would she be happy? Nobody would


    be d that the person they loved sent someone to monitor them and report their movements all


    the time. It was like being a prisoner without having any privacy. In short, Toby''s behavior was


    completely distrustful and he didn''t believe in her performance. Besides, he had done this before,


    but she had told him to withdraw the spies ced in herpany. Though he agreed, he did not


    keep his word at all.


    Sonia pursed her red lips, and it took a while for her to respond to


    Daphne''s words. "I will verify whether it is Toby or not and give you a reply tomorrow. As for the


    parts, it''s a good thing that they are back. Hurry up and notify the processing department to start


    processing so that we don''t miss the construction period."


    "Yes, Chairman Reed." As she listened to Sonia''s instructions, Daphne had no objections and


    immediately


    agreed.


    When the call ended, Sonia slowly took her phone away from her ear with a stiff expression. After a


    few seconds, she rubbed her eyebrows, then tapped on her contacts to dial Toby''s number. She


    wanted to know if he was the one who had gotten the parts back, and if he was, why didn''t he tell


    her beforehand?


    When the call went through, Sonia quietly listened to the beeping sound on the phone. However,


    after a while, the dial tone was still ringing, and it was not reced by his low and pleasant voice.


    She frowned again and brought her phone to her face to have a look. It showed on the screen that


    she had already been dialing for more than twenty seconds. If Toby hadn''t answered the phone for


    so long, it probably meant that he wasn''t free.


    When she thought of how Fuller Group had thousands of people in their headquarters alone, she


    suddenly couldn''t be angry with Toby for sending someone to monitor her, and she only felt worried


    for him. After all, she already felt exhausted managing hundreds of people in Paradigm Co., let


    alone the Fuller Group headquarters with more than 2,000 people. Besides, many subsidiaries of


    the Fuller Group submitted hundreds of documents every day and sent them to the headquarters for


    processing, so it was clear that he worked so much more than her.


    She had backache every single day, and Toby, who worked so much more than her, naturally had it


    worse. However, because he was a man, he never showed these things on his face, so the person


    she saw was always in good spirits. It seemed that she had neglected him quite a lot. Sonia


    lowered her eyes, feeling shameful and guilty. If it weren''t for the fact that Toby didn''t answer the call


    this time, she might not realize how busy and tired he usually was. She had really been spoiled.


    Recently, he almost always pushed his work back, or pushed it aside just to make time to be with


    her. Even if he was not by her side, as long as she contacted him, he would almost always respond


    as soon as possible. So much so that over time, she forgot that he was the president of Fuller


    Group, and he was so much more tired and busy than her.


    A helpless smile came from the corner of Sonia''s mouth. Didn’t this mean that she was spoiled? He


    spoiled her, and yet she had neglected him so often. In the future, she would have to pay more


    attention to him, and she couldn''t gradually abandon him like this. It was unfair to him.


    At the thought, Sonia hung up and gently sent a message to Toby.


    At the same time, in the president''s office in Fuller Group. Toby was sitting behind his desk with a


    fountain pen in his hand and his head slightly lowered, going through documents one after another.


    The time each document spent in his hand would not exceed three minutes, and he was as precise


    as a ruthless machine. After the documents were processed, he tossed them directly to Tom who


    was standing opposite the desk and sorting out the documents.


    Meanwhile, the documents in Tom''s hand had already been piled high into a tall mountain, all of


    which Toby hadpleted in a single afternoon. Though Toby could work without getting tired, Tom


    felt that in the two or three hours he had spent standing here, his eyes were losing focus and his


    legs were sore. However, as he looked at Toby''s cold expression and the pressuring aura that


    emanated from his body, he couldn''t seem to persuade him to rest for a while and let him go.


    Instead, he could only grit his teeth and force himself to endure the pain in his sore legs, pretending


    as if nothing was wrong as he organized the documents in silence.


    That was until a minute ago, when Toby''s phone rang, and Tom nced at the screen. Seeing that it


    was a call from Sonia, he suddenly became excited, thinking that Toby would answer her call no


    matter what, which meant that he could also take the opportunity to move his legs around and rest.


    Unexpectedly, Toby didn''t mean to answer the phone at all, as if he hadn’t heard or seen Sonia


    calling, and he didn''t pause in going through the documents.


    Though Tom was disappointed that he had lost the chance to rest, he couldn''t help but feel his heart


    stop as he had a bad premonition. What was going on? Toby didn''t answer Sonia''s call, and he


    even indifferently pretended not to have seen it. They weren''t facing rtionship problems, were


    they?


    Tom looked at the phone that was already quiet, and then at Toby, who was looking at another


    document on the opposite side, and panicked a little. No way. That can''t be true, right?


    He took a breath and couldn''t help but ask tentatively, "President Fuller, the call just now was from


    Miss Reed. Didn''t you see the caller ID?"


    Still, he knew how unnecessary his question was. How could Toby not be aware? When he looked


    at Toby''s phone screen, he saw that Toby had also nced at it, so it was impossible for him not to


    know. He had seen it, but he deliberately didn’t answer the call.

    Toby''s hand stopped in its tracks as he raised his eyes to look at Tom. Those eyes were full of


    darkness and indifference, but they were enough to pierce through a person. Tom almost felt as if


    Toby could see through his mind, and he quickly lowered his gaze.


    "I saw it." The second Tom lowered his eyes and avoided Toby’s gaze, Toby spoke up, answering


    him in a cold and curt tone.


    Hearing that, Tom abruptly lifted his


    head. "You saw it?”


    Toby did not reply to his question.


    Tom''s mouth gaped. "Then... why didn''t you answer?"


    Toby still remained silent, only looking at him gloomily.


    Tom felt a shiver run down his spine from Toby''s stare and lowered his head again, feeling his heart


    race with panic. It''s over. These two are definitely having rtionship problems.
