Chapter 33
Sonia quickly pulled down the sleeves of
her sweater to cover the wordings of her tattoo before she opened the door. She
was surprised when she saw Toby and
Tina standing right outside the door
because she never expected them to
Toby wore a ck suit while next to him
was Tina, who wore a champagne-colored
evening gown that made her look fair and
beautiful. Both of them lookedpatible
with each other when they stood together.
When he saw Sonia’s messy hair and pink
cheeks, he immediately became colder
and asked her in a low voice, “Where’s
Tyler7”
responded in a gentle manner, “We are here to pick Tyler up. Can you ask him toe out quickly?”
Sonia turned around to yell into the house, “Tyler, your brother and your sister–inw are here. I’m not
the one who told them about your location. Your brother is the
one who installed location services on your phone and found you from there.”
When Tyler saw his brother, his shoulders
slumped in a slightlyzy manner as he slowly walked out of the house with his
bag.
When the three of them were about to
leave, she called after them, “President
Fuller, your brother used my medicine and
ate two bowls of beef noodles at my
ce. Aren’t vou nnina to pay for it?”
Tyler replied angrily. “How much does two bowls of beef noodles cosi? Since when have you been so
stingy?”
“Well, beef is quite expensive now. Apart
from that, we are not rted to each other
anymore. So why would I allow you to eat
for free here?”
He was speechless upon hearing that.
Meanwhile, Toby took out five pieces of
cash and passed them to Sonia with an
indifferent expression on his face. “Is this
enough?”
“Yes. Thank you, President Fuller. Have a
nice journey back home.” After receiving
the money, she closed the door
immediately without a second nce at
them.
The three of them then took the elevator down. After they entered the car. Toby finally asked Tyler, “Why
didn’t you head to the hotel and insteade to Sonia’s ce? What’s going on with the injuries on
your face?”
Tyler was feeling rather defeated in front of his brother. Upon hearing Toby’s questions, he immediately
and truthfully
replied, “I had a fight with my ssmates. I
know that you were having dinner with Tina’s family and I thought that it’s not a good idea to go to dinner
while looking like this. So, I asked sis-I mean, Sonia-to bail
me out and had dinner at her ce
instead.”
When Tina heard that Tyler still referred to
Sonia as his sister-inw, her fingers
clenched.
Tina took the medical kit in her car to gently deal with the injuries on his arms while speaking in a
soothing tone, “Tyler, if you get into trouble in the future, just call me or Toby. We are a family now, so
don’t worry about troubling us. Apart from that, Miss Reed already has a boyfriend. It’s not appropriate
for you to continue troubling her like this. I’m sure her boyfriend would
mind.”
At this moment, he remembered how
Sonia had teased him during dinner earlier
while feeling slightly ufortable, “She
seems to be staying alone. She’s not living
together with that guy.”
Toby shot a nce at him through the
rearview mirror. He did not know why he
felt rxed upon hearing Tyler’s words.
“Maybe they have a different abode.” Tina
gave a gentle smile. “Your wounds have been disinfected. Does it still huri?”
“Not anymore. Thank you, Tina.” Tyler
smiled. Tina is so gentle and she speaks
softly. She’s much better than Sonia!
After closing the medical kit, she casually spoke to Toby. “Toby, I heard that you already asked Tom to
deal with the news in our circle, right? It’s just a small matter, so we didn’t expect the employees from
Paradigm Co. to record a video and upload
it online. The video became viral among
the circle and ruined your mother’s
reputation, which affected yours as well.”
“What do you mean, Tina? Are you
suspecting that Sonia asked her
employees to record the video?” Tyler
asked in confusion
“That’s not what I meant.” Tina replied
hastily. “I just thought that Sonia might have known about this long ago and restricted her employees so
that the video would not spread like wildfire among their
department.”
“Paradigm Co. has many employees. Even if she had warned them, those who didn’t
mind getting into trouble would still
secretly upload the video.” Tyler pouted. “On top of that, Mom is in the wrong here.
Toby and Sonia have already divorced, yet
Mom still made a scene at Paradigm Co.
because of such small matters.”
Even though he did not like Sonia a lot, he
had spent six years living under the same
roof as her. He knew that she was not the
person who would resort to some dirty
tricks as such. Apart from that, it was Jean who went to make a scene at Paradigm Co. It wasn’t
something that Sonia had
asked for
Tina was shocked to see this. Tyler
obviously hates her. Why is he speaking up for her now?
*Tina, why are you looking at me like this?”
When Tyler saw her looking at him, he
raised his hand to touch his face, but he
identally touched his wounds and
hissed in pain. “Do I look that bad?”

She immediately returned to her senses and smiled gently. “A little. I was just
thinking that your ssmates would be
looking at you when you head to school
tomorrow
When Tyler heard that, his expression sank and he thought about skipping school. However, his older
brother was the driver, so Tyler did not dare to say it out loud, for fear that he might not even be able to
enter his house the next day. He had always been quite a coward who did not
dare to speak up.
They soon arrived at Fuller Residence.
Upon seeing that Tina was still here, Jean affectionately pulled Tina’s hand. “Oh, Tina,
it’s been difficult for you to search for Tyler
with Toby. Thanks for the hard work. Since
it’s already sote, why don’t you stay the
night here? Well, you should move in
earlier anyway.”
Tina also wanted to stay, so she shot a nce at Toby. After seeing that he did not utter a word, she
pursed her lips before saying, “Alright. Thanks, Madam White.”
“We are a family now, so don’t be too
courteous!” Jean was overjoyed when she
saw that Tina agreed to stay the night.
After Toby came out from the shower, he
did not immediately go to bed and looked through a few documents instead.
When he opened the drawer to take a pen, he opened the wrong tier and saw a stack
of yellowish letters that were ced inside
the drawer. His gaze became much gentler
when he saw the letters.
It was a coincidence that he was able to
know Maple. his den bal. After they
when he saw the letters.
It was a coincidence that he was able to
know Maple, his pen pal. After they exchanged many conversations with each other, they had a great
time, which was out of his expectations. This was the first time he felt touched when he interacted with
someone through letters. Yet, he never
expected the pen pal to be Tina.
