Chapter 1122


    "Overboard?" As if she had heard something ridiculous, Rose mmed the table and sneered, "Mr.


    Lore, in your eyes, Toby and Sonny dealt with this a bit too seriously, didn''t they?"


    "Is that not the case?" Harry was visibly upset now. "Yes, Lte is in the wrong, but she didn''t


    mean it. Does Toby need to cut ties with my family just because of this? Isn''t it enough when we''ve


    apologized?"


    "So, this is your stance on this situation." Rose smirked. "In my opinion, I think they did the right


    thing. I don''t care if your granddaughter intended this or not, I only know that she did it without


    verifying the truth and concluded it one-sidedly. She was so sure that Sonny had betrayed Toby and


    uploaded the pictures. Her aim? To let Sonny suffer under the public''s criticism. Yet, have you ever


    thought about what would happen if Sonny was not tough enough to face the bacsh?"


    "I''m aware, Madam." Mary peered at Harry coldly. "Miss Reed might suffer from mental breakdown


    andmit suicide. Since this happens often, the number of people who die because of


    cyberbullying is actually quite high."


    "That''s right." Rose nodded. "That means that your granddaughter nearly killed Sonny. Toby loves


    her a lot. Since he nearly lost Sonny, what makes you think he won''t cut ties with you after the


    incident? Who told you to mess with the person he loves the most? This is why I''m in favor of their


    response."


    Harry was rendered speechless by their words.


    After a while, he finally replied, "But this isn''t as serious as you make it out to be. Isn''t Miss Reed


    fine?"


    "Sonny is fine, but that doesn''t mean that she should forgive your misdeeds." Rose snorted.


    Clenching his fist, Harry continued, "It is our fault. We are willing to apologize to Miss Reed. We are


    even willing topensate her, but she… Sigh. She doesn''t want to let this go and keeps wanting


    to argue this. She even brought Toby into this. He wasn''t like this in the past."


    "What''s with the suddenparison?" Rose''s expression darkened. "Are you implying that Toby


    was negatively influenced by Sonny?"


    Harry quickly waved his hands. "Oh no, I didn''t mean that. What I meant was that the reason Toby


    wouldn''t forgive us was because of Miss Reed too. Perhaps, she doesn''t want him to forgive us. I


    know that you like Miss Reed very much, Old Mrs. Fuller, so I implore you to not get angry at what


    I''m about to say. Think about it. Toby is my student. Our families are very close with the public


    knowing that Toby respects me alot. If the masses knew that he cut all ties with my family just


    because of a few words from Miss Reed, how would they view him? Wouldn''t they think that Toby


    turned on his teacher just for a mere woman? This would harm his reputation."


    "Oh?" Rose lowered her gaze and smiled mysteriously. "What is your suggestion, then?"


    Harry took a sip from the tea before continuing, "Old Mrs. Fuller, I don''t ask for much. I just request


    you to speak with Toby and persuade him as well as Miss Reed. Give Lte and my family a


    chance to apologize. Bad blood shouldn''t have to be stirred up just because of this. This wouldn''t


    benefit either of our families. This is also my aim ining here as I''m out of options as well. Toby


    wouldn''t ept our calls, much less see us. I only came here because I don''t know what else I can


    do. So, Old Mrs. Fuller—"


    "So all in all, you came to me because you wanted me to act as a mediator, helping your family


    build a rapport with Toby and Sonny, right? Oh—what I meant was that you wanted me to order


    Toby and Sonny to forgive and reconcile with your family, am I right?" Rose interrupted and smiled


    at him curtly.


    Hearing that Rose had voiced out his genuine thoughts, Harry decided to get to the point and


    rubbed his palms together before saying, "Yes, this is what I meant. It''s not a major incident, since


    Lte only did a bad thing out of good intentions. Lte and the Lore Family are more than


    willing to apologize to Miss Reed and reimburse her as well. I think that Miss Reed shouldn''t have


    been so stubborn as to hold a grudge against us. After all, Lte did it to protect Toby; she didn''t


    want him to be kept in the dark. As Toby''s woman, she should understand and even ept the


    compensation and apology my family is willing to give out. Otherwise, Miss Reed would just be


    making it hard for Toby, who''s stuck between all of this. It is quite unbing for her to be acting


    like this as his partner. Besides…"


    Harry settled his tea down. "To summarize this, it''s just squabbles between the youngsters. An


    apology andpensation are supposed to be enough, but Miss Reed made it worse than it


    should. In the end, it caused our families'' rtionship to sour. This shows how narrow-minded she


    is. She isn''t a tolerating person! If she does reconcile with Toby in the future, I don''t think she can


    contribute much to him. I think that she might even distant Toby from the families he shares a close


    rtionship with. So, Old Mrs Fuller, I suggest you use this chance to lecture Miss Reed properly.


    Tell her to be more forgiving and not attract so much trouble for Toby. What do you think?"


    His words were directly hinting at Sonia being a homewrecker. Undoubtedly, this caused Rose and


    Mary''s expression to darken.


    Afraid that Rose might worsen her health due to anger, Mary patted her on the shoulder, hinting that


    she should calm down. Then, Marry stepped forward and smiled coldly at Harry.

    "Mr. Lore, only snakes speak like you did. Don''t think that we can''t tell you''re purposefully making


    Miss Reed look bad in front of Old Mrs. Fuller. You just want to make her feel disdain toward Miss


    Reed and let her separate Young Master Toby and Miss Reed. You sure did n ahead quite


    thoroughly. Too bad, Madam knows best what kind of person Miss Reed is like. So, don''t treat us as


    fools and assume we don''t see through you. We''ve seen countless people like you."


    "I''m not—"


    "Enough." Rose showed her palm to him, breaking off what Harry was about to say, for she had lost


    all patience at this point. "Mr. Lore, I''m not sure if you are stupid or foolish. You came with the


    intention of wanting me to be the mediator, to persuade Toby and Sonny to ept the apology of


    your family and save the rtionship you share with him. Then, you should''ve praised Sonny in


    front of me instead of belittling her. After all, you already know that I like her a lot. If you had made


    me happy by praising her, I might even persuade them on your behalf. Yet, I didn''t think you''d be


    this dumb to cut your only option off like this."


    "That''s right." Mary, who saw that Rose wanted to get up, quickly bent over and helped her up. "Mr.


    Lore, do you think we''re clueless to what you''re trying to do? You''re just trying to belittle her to the


    point where Madam would separate her away from Young Master Toby! We know it all. We know


    that you''re using this awful tactic to help your granddaughter get married to him!"
