Chapter 748 Tom’s Best Wishes
The pitiful sight of the woman made Toby feel like torturing her even more than ever. However, he knew
that she could no longer handle his harsh treatment, so he had no choice but to take a deep breath and
suppress the urge to continue bullying her. He ran his hand across her burning face as he spoke in a
deep voice. “Who do I belong to? Tell me your name. How am I supposed to know if you don’t tell me
your name?”
Sonia knew that the guy was trying to cause her trouble. If she wasn’t so weak, she would definitely kick
him off the bed!
“Hmm?” Toby lowered his head when he saw her eyes looking around the room for a while. “What are
you thinking about?” He gave her a peck on the lips.
“Nothing much.” Sonia looked away as she didn’t want him to know what she was thinking. What if he
can tell what I’m thinking about, and what if he decides to go on with me after this? But Toby stopped
forcing her to answer his question when he saw her keeping quiet. Instead, he only got her to answer his
previous question. “Tell me—who do I belong to? I’ll let you rest after you answer me.”
“How do I know if you’re being honest? How do I know you won’t make me answer another question?”
Sonia bit her lip as she answered in a pitiful tone.
He chuckled. “I won’t. This is thest one. Trust me, alright?”
Sonia shifted her gaze to look at him. She kept staring at him as if she was trying to decide if she could
trust him. In the end, she gave in when she thought about how tired she felt. She decided that she would
trust the man once more. “You’re Sonia’s.” Her swollen lips parted as she spoke softly.
Toby was rather disappointed at how soft her voice was, but he gave up on asking for her to repeat
herself in a louder voice when he saw how tired she looked. Instead, he rubbed his forehead against
hers as he spoke in a gentle voice. “Okay. Look, I kept my word, right? You can go to bed now. Thank
you for tonight.” He gave her another kiss on her lips before resting his hands on top of the woman’s face
to close her eyes.
When he finally released her, she felt her entire body rxing. She no longer had to fight the sleepiness,
and she allowed herself to close her eyes beneath the man’s warm hand. After about two minutes, she
fell asleep, snoring a little louder than usual as she was too tired.
Eventually, Toby removed his hand from Sonia’s eyes to find her fast asleep. When he saw her flushed
face and the hair that was stuck to her forehead due to her sweat, he felt as if his heart was about to
melt. After that, he pulled the sheets off of him and picked his pants off the floor to put them on. He didn’t
put on a shirt, and he leaned down to pick the woman up before carrying her to the bathroom.
By the time he changed the bedsheets and showered both himself and Sonia, it was nearly sunrise. He
tucked her into bed and took his phone from the bedside table to send Tom a text, telling him to contact
Sonia’spany to inform them that she was taking a day off. Once that was done, he got into bed and
curled up beside the girl before falling asleep. The next day, he only woke up when he received a call at
2PM.
The moment Toby opened his eyes, he immediately hurried to find the ringing phone before ending the
call and turning to check on the woman beside him. He wanted to see if she had been awakened by the
phone call. When he was certain that she was still fast asleep, he massaged his brows as he let out a
sigh of relief and got out of bed. “It’s 2PM already?” Toby frowned when he saw the time on his phone.
He hadn’t expected to sleep past noon. If it weren’t for Tom’s call, he might have slept for even longer.
My quality of sleep does seem better when I have my lover in my arms.
Toby lowered his phone to look at the sleeping woman with a tender and loving gaze. He knew that he
had worn her out yesterday—that was probably why she hadn’t woken up despite the loud ringing of his
phone. By the looks of it, she is going to remain asleep for a while longer. I guess that’s fine. I should just
let her continue sleeping. After bending down to give her a kiss, Toby left the room to return Tom’s call.
“What is it?” Toby walked over to the couch, where he sat down and poured himself a ss of water
while talking on the phone. Tom was shocked to hear his boss’s rough and rather sleepy voice from the
other end of the line. “President Fuller, you didn’t just wake up, did you?”
“Mhmm.” Toby took a gulp of water to soothe his dry throat.
“Did you really just wake up?” Tom stared out of his office window, where the blinding sun—a rare sight
during winter—hung high up in the sky. The sunlight reminded Tom that it was past 2PM in the afternoon.
Yet, President Fuller just woke up… I… This is… Tom gulped. Is this the diligent workaholic that I know?
“Is anything the matter?” Toby didn’t want to know the reason Tom was so shocked, so he phrased his
question in a t tone.
Tom hastily shook his head. “No, no. There’s no issue at all.”
Toby scoffed as he lowered his ss and changed the topic. “I texted you at 5AM this morning and got
you to inform Paradigm Co. that Sonia won’t be going to work today. Did you do it?”
“Of course. I’d never not follow your orders.” Tom pushed his sses up the bridge of his nose. Despite
his polite and ttering tone of voice, Tom wore a stiff, icy smile on his face. He was furious about what
happened at 5AM that morning. The sun wasn’t out yet, and Tom had been dreaming about meeting a
new girlfriend, but before he got to take a good look at the girlfriend’s face, his work phone on his
bedside table began to ring and vibrate like mad.
The loud noise had startled Tom, sending his imaginary girlfriend up into thin air. Tom had two phones,
and the one that vibrated was the one he used only when he was contacting Toby. When he heard that
phone ringing so early in the morning, he assumed that something huge and urgent must have
happened to Toby. Tom didn’t even attempt to recall what his girlfriend in his dream looked like and
instantly picked the phone up to check his messages.

However, he then realized that it was no big deal at all. Toby simply got him to apply for leaves for both
Toby and Sonia as they weren’t going to work the next day. Tsk! What’s the big deal? Can’t he just tell
me thatter? Why does he have to wake me up at 5AM to tell me about this? Despite feeling annoyed
by the matter, Tom proceeded to fulfill his tasks once he woke up the next day.
Initially, Tom assumed that Toby and Sonia were taking a day off from both their workces because
they wanted to go on a date. Tom was, therefore, shocked when he heard that both of them had slept
through the entire morning. Wait… They slept? Tom widened his eyes as he seemed to realize
something. If all they did was sleep, they couldn’t have remained in bed until this hour. That means…
President Fuller and Miss Reed…
Once Tom realized what was going on, he looked around his room before speaking into the phone with a
careful tone. “President Fuller.”
“Yes? What is it?” Toby frowned.
“Well…” Tom spread his lips into a perverted smile. “You and Miss Reed were up to somethingst night,
weren’t you?” As Toby’s trusty assistant, Tom was well-aware of everything going on between Sonia and
Toby. Although both of them were officially dating, Sonia hadn’t gone beyond third base with Toby as she
wasn’t mentally prepared for it.
But considering the fact that both President Fuller and Miss Reed applied for leaves today, and
considering that they just woke up, it’s likely that they did somethingst night. That’s why they’re only
waking up now.
Toby narrowed his eyes when he heard Tom’s question. “Why are you asking me about this?” Although
Toby didn’t give Tom a solid answer, Tom knew his guess was right.
The perverted smile on Tom’s face widened. “Oh, it’s nothing. I just wanted to congratte you. You’ve
finally gotten what you wanted! Miss Reed ispletely and utterly yours now.”
