Chapter 46
While shivering in fear, Tyler quickly hung up the phone and he carried his bag on his shoulder before
rushing toward the door. He didn’t wait for Sonia to make the
request.
However, before leaving, he turned around and warned, “You have received my gifts,
which means that you muste to
school and help me this Saturday! If you dare to tell Toby about this, I’ll tell him that you are already
sleeping with another man right after your divorce!”
Upon listening to him, Sonia was rendered
speechless.
Tyler ran to the south gate as fast as he
could-which was exactly in two minutes.
The moment he arrived at the side of the road, he could already see Toby casually
sitting on the driver’s seat of his sports car
as the smoke from Toby’s cigarette
lingered around his fingers.
Tyler immediately sat on the passenger seat as he panted before he fastened his
seatbelt.
However, due to Toby’s cold stare and gloomy aura, Tyler didn’t dare to utter a word while he kept his
head lowered.
While waiting for the car to move on the
road, Toby finally opened his mouth.
“Didn’t I tell you not to look for her? Are my words a joke to you?”
“I didn’t have any money on me…”
“There are several hotels under the Fuller Group. Did you really think that no one
would know that you are the Young Master
of the Fuller Family?” he sneered.
“My stomach has been acting funnytely, so I came to her for help. Don’t you know how good your
wife’s cooking is?” Tyler refused to cave under Toby’s line of questioning. However, the moment Tyler’s
words came out of his mouth, he seemed to realize that he had said something wrong and quickly
corrected himself. “1-L mean your ‘ex-wife’. Toby, I know that you
two are divorced, but can’t Ie to her ce for a meal? Besides, she is the one who invited me in for
a meal. It’s not like!
forced her to do so.”
Again, the man let out a sarcastic chuckle as he clearly didn’t believe a word Tyler said, so Tyler carefully
continued with his
words. “Toby, I can see that Sonia is actually a nice person.”
As he hoped that Sonia coulde to school and help him out, he tried to put in
a few good words for her in front of Toby,
but he also believed that she was a good
person in his heart. Sometimes, it takes our
own eyes to judge whether a person is good or not instead of blindly listening to others.
Upon witnessing Toby’s silence, Tyler
summoned the courage to continue
speaking, “I heard that herpany isn’t doing welltely. Can you please help her? Maybe you could
teach her on managing a business whenever you are free. After all,
business whenever you are free. After all, she didn’t ask anything from you as
alimony when she divorced you, so her life isn’t going
well-“I don‘t think I should tell him that Sonia has dated someone online before.
After all, who doesn‘t have a past?
However, Toby immediately interrupted
Tyler. “Does your face still hurt?”
Tyler grazed the inside of his mouth with
his tongue and answered, “It was, but once
she applied medicine on the wound, the
pain subsided.”
“When we return home, I want you to apologize to Mom. Also, you should stop ying basketball and
focus on your studies instead.” Toby ced his hand on
the car window sill as he wore a grim
expression. “When I was sixteen, Dad had
already started assigning me to a handful
of businesses to deal with. He even asked
me to join thepany’s management
team.”
Upon listening to him, Tyler’s eyes darkened as he wanted to say something. However, Toby didn’t give
him a chance to speak and asked, “Do you prefer to study abroad starting from tomorrow?”
Since Tylercked the courage to go against his brother, he lowered his head
and remained quiet.
At the same time, Sonia didn’t think much about Tyler’s words as she was busy with
meetings and paperwork.
She asked her team to arrange a meeting
with him to discuss the acquisition of the
Continental Co. when Charles had the time toe over to Paradigm Co. After analyzing the means and
methods of the
takeover, they finally came to an
agreement.
If they were able to consolidate thepany, Continental Co. would be apatible asset alongside
Paradigm Co.
Not to mention, Sonia also had the funds
to make her purchase.
However, there were far too many people
who wanted to acquire the Continental Co,
so the owner was so frustrated that he
went abroad for a holiday in December and
never returned since. On top of that, he
never answered his phone, which made it
Sonia tried to get in touch with the owner
of the Continental Co. for the past few
days through her connections, but to no
avail.
She was close to being frustrated with the
situation when she received numerous
calls from Tyler in the morning, asking her
when she woulde to his school.
Therefore, she immediately blocked his
number.
However, Tyler was able to reach Sonia in
the end after using his school’sndline to
call, but he didn’t have an arrogant tone.
There was instead a hint of plea in his
words.”I’ve put in a good word for you when Toby picked me up that night. Can you please help me just
this once? I beg vou If you don’te my life is
While she listened to him, Sonia didn’t
know whether to be angry orugh. As a
sixteen-year–old brat, he has his whole life in
front of him, but he has now given up just
because he can‘t y basketball anymore?
She ruthlessly hung up the phone and ignored Tyler. However, once she was done with her work, she
suddenly felt sorry for him when she remembered his pleas on the
phone. After knowing him for so long, this is the first time I‘ve seen him
pleading to someone other than his brother.
“President Reed, are you busy?” Reba knocked on the open door before she entered. “My granny
hasn’t been in good healthtely, so I’d like to take a three day
leave to visit her.”
Upon listening to Reba mentioning her family, Sonia suddenly thought of Rose,
whom she had stopped contacting after
the divorce from Toby. I wonder whether she is in good health.
“Alright. If the situation is critical, I can
also allow you to leave earlier today,” Sonia answered. “You can also stay at home for a few more days if
you want to. You can

hand me the slip afterward.”
Reba’s eyes immediately brightened. “Wow, you really are nice, Sonia. Not only are you beautiful,
your heart is also lovely!”
However, she was not in a hurry to leave after she received the slip. Instead, she
asked Sonia, “President Reed, I have a
poor friend who works three jobs a day. I
really want to help him, but I’m afraid of hurting his self-esteem. Can you please
help me?”
“How old is he? What is he good at?” Sonia asked. “If he doesn’t know anything, he can also be a
security guard here at Paradigm Co. I’ll give him a higher sry.”
Since Reba and Charles were alumni of
the same university, she was willing to
help Reba to take care of her friend.
“I’ve already arranged everything. I just need your approval.” Reba smiled. “I can ask him to be your
driver. You can call
him whenever you need to head
somewhere and I’ll help to pay for his
It was true that Sonia needed a driver to
transport her around from time to time. “It’s fine. I can pay for his sry. After all, your ie isn’t that
high.”
“I’m fine with it. I own a house in the city and it can be sold for quite a lot of money. The selling price
would be enough to pay him a year’s worth of sry.” Reba waved her hands, showing that she was
alright with paying him.
Sonia was startled for a moment before
she asked, “Is that your only house?”
“I have a few houses as well as a couple of
vis.” Reba tried to remember. “My mom bought all of it, but I’ve lost count of how many she
purchased. Are you looking for a house at the moment? I can sell you
Meanwhile, Sonia was rendered
speechless as she rubbed her head.
Moments ago, she was worried that
Reba’s sry wasn’t high enough, but it
so happened that Reba was merely
gaining experience through her current work. In the end, it was Sonia who was actually the poor one.
Sonia had nned on visiting Tyler’s schoolter, so she handed over her car keys to Reba. Then,
Sonia had asked Reba’s friend toe to drive her
there.
Fifteen minutester, Reba called.
“President Reed, he is now waiting for you downstairs. Try to be careful when you’re speaking with him
to avoid him knowing
“I understand.”
After packing her stuff, Sonia left thepany and walked straight to her car before opening the door.
“Are you Reba’s friend?” While asking
him, she turned her head and prepared to tell the driver her destination. However, at
the same time, the driver had also turned
to look at her with a hint of joy in his
narrow eyes.
As the two of them stared at each other,
Zane lifted his hand and waved at her.
“Hello, President Reed.”
