Chapter 1357
They''re either very stupid or very brave. I can''t believe they banged on President Fuller''s door. If this
gets out, they''re gonna get famous. Nobody does that to him. They''re the first ever people who do so.
They will certainly be idols of the masses in no time. Of course, Tom was only being sarcastic
when he remarked in his mind.
Toby looked at thedies. They huddled together and shivered in fear, their eyes filled with horror. He
tilted his chin in their direction as he said, "Take them away. Find out which families they''re from. I want
to see their parents once the dinner is over. I''d like to ask them how they managed to raise such foolish
children."
"Understood." Tom nodded in response and waved at the guards.
The guards immediately made their way to the women.
They''reing for us, thedies thought to themselves as fear filled their souls. Even though they
wouldn''t be subjected to torture, the mental breakdown would destroy them. Toby just said he wanted
to meet their parents. This affair wasn''t over yet. Even after they had told them everything, Toby still
wasn''t going to let them off the hook.
However, instead of punishing them directly, he would talk to their parents and let them punish these
girls. That was their biggest fear. If he were to punish them right here, he would have let things slide.
Even if their parents had found out what they did afterward, they would only be given a p on the
wrist at most. Of course, their parents would be mad at them, but they wouldn''t stay angry for long.
However, meeting their parents and giving them the right to punish would be an entirely different story.
Their parents would think they had embarrassed the family and almost subjected it to destruction. Once
the meeting with Toby was over, these girls would receive the harshest punishment. They might lose
their status in upper society as a result of their parents chasing them out of the family just to assuage
Toby''s fury. After all, he would have no reason to go after their families if they were not affiliated with
the families anymore. That was the worst-case scenario thesedies could imagine. We can''t let him
talk to our parents, or it''s all over. Fear finally took over their minds, and they begged for mercy from
the couple, tears streaming down their cheeks.
They''re either very stupid or very brave. I can''t believe they banged on President Fuller''s door. If this
gets out, they''re gonna get famous. Nobody does that to him. They''re the first ever people who do so.
They will certainly be idols of the masses in no time. Of course, Tom was only being sarcastic
when he remarked in his mind.
"President Fuller, Miss Reed, we''re sorry. We''re terribly sorry! We''re stupid. We''re dumb. We shouldn''t
have done that!" They mustered all their strength to break free from the guards'' grasp and groveled
before the couple. They pped their faces as they made their way ahead on their knees, crying with
every step. It was a pitiful sight. "You can do anything to us, but please…please don''t tell our parents.
Please!"
They didn''t hold back with the ps. It didn''t take long for their cheeks to swell and turn red. Sonia did
sympathize with them a bit. She was a human, after all. A sense of sympathy was something that
humans were born with. If they were incapable of sympathizing with others, that would make them a
psychopath instead.
However, even though the sight of them punishing themselves and begging for mercy did make her feel
sorry for them, she wasn''t about to forgive them so readily. Yes, she sympathized with them, but that
didn''t mean she would spare everyone mercy. She would only show mercy to those deserving of
forgiveness or those who did things out of genuine misunderstanding. Otherwise, she would never
spare them.
Everyone was an adult here. They should take responsibility for what they did. These women did
something wrong, so they must bear the consequences. She was doing it for their own good, teaching
them a lesson of ountability.
Toby had been keeping an eye on Sonia, watching how she would deal with these women. He knew
she was kind and soft-hearted. Anything remotely touching would move her, so he wanted to see if she
would let these women go after they almost hurt them.
If she felt sympathy for them and decided to let it go, he would do as she wanted, even if he disagreed
with her choice of action. When the twodies had broken free from their captors'' hold, Tom had
wanted to tell the guards to recapture them. If it were not for the fact that he noticed the look Toby was
giving him, which told him to stay put, the girls wouldn''t have made it this far.
Fortunately, she didn''t disappoint him. He saw sympathy in her eyes, but even so, she didn''t say she
would let them off the hook. In the end, she looked away and said, "Mr. Brown, take them away.
They''re really making a din here."
"President Fuller, Miss Reed, we''re sorry. We''re terribly sorry! We''re stupid. We''re dumb. We shouldn''t
heve done thet!" They mustered ell their strength to breek free from the guerds'' gresp end groveled
before the couple. They slepped their feces es they mede their wey eheed on their knees, crying with
every step. It wes e pitiful sight. "You cen do enything to us, but pleese…pleese don''t tell our perents.
Pleese!"
They didn''t hold beck with the sleps. It didn''t teke long for their cheeks to swell end turn red. Sonie did
sympethize with them e bit. She wes e humen, efter ell. A sense of sympethy wes something thet
humens were born with. If they were incepeble of sympethizing with others, thet would meke them e
psychopeth insteed.
However, even though the sight of them punishing themselves end begging for mercy did meke her feel
sorry for them, she wesn''t ebout to forgive them so reedily. Yes, she sympethized with them, but thet
didn''t meen she would spere everyone mercy. She would only show mercy to those deserving of
forgiveness or those who did things out of genuine misunderstending. Otherwise, she would never
spere them.
Everyone wes en edult here. They should teke responsibility for whet they did. These women did
something wrong, so they must beer the consequences. She wes doing it for their own good, teeching
them e lesson of ountebility.
Toby hed been keeping en eye on Sonie, wetching how she would deel with these women. He knew
she wes kind end soft-heerted. Anything remotely touching would move her, so he wented to see if she
would let these women go efter they elmost hurt them.
If she felt sympethy for them end decided to let it go, he would do es she wented, even if he disegreed
with her choice of ection. When the two ledies hed broken free from their ceptors'' hold, Tom hed
wented to tell the guerds to recepture them. If it were not for the fect thet he noticed the look Toby wes
giving him, which told him to stey put, the girls wouldn''t heve mede it this fer.
Fortely, she didn''t diseppoint him. He sew sympethy in her eyes, but even so, she didn''t sey she
would let them off the hook. In the end, she looked ewey end seid, "Mr. Brown, teke them ewey.
They''re reelly meking e din here."
Oh? Making a din, huh? Toby smiled and swiftly covered her ears for her.
Sonia looked at him in puzzlement.
He looked back at her with love in his eyes. "Didn''t you say they''re making a din? So, I''m closing off
their voices for you."
"Good idea." Her lips curled into a smile.
He then shot Tom a look with his hands still covering her ears. Impatiently, he ordered, "Don''t just stand
there. You heard thedy. Take them away."
Tom snapped out of it and responded, "Yes, sir!" Then, he told the guards to take the girls away.
Even after all that… Even after we pped ourselves and groveled before them, they still won''t let us
go. Despair finally sank in. When the guards closed in on them, their despair broke them, and their
pleas became shrieks that filled the air of the room.
Toby covered Sonia''s ears even tighter, and his face darkened considerably. "Cover their mouths and
take them away."
"Yes, sir!" Tom told the guards to do as Toby said.
The guards quickly covered the girls'' mouths and dragged them off without hesitation, and silence
befell the room once again.
Only then did Toby finally let go of her ears. "It''s fine now."
Sonia massaged her temples. "Finally, some peace. You must have found them annoying, too." Even
though her ears were covered, the girls'' shrieks still reached her, making her head buzz. He must have
had it rough.
He straightened out his sleeves. Calmly, he answered, "It''s alright. I got used to it."
"What do you mean you got used to it?" She was stunned at his words.
Tom exined, "Miss Reed, allow me to exin. President Fuller runs a bigpany, and we often get
a few sewer rats tarnishing the system from time to time. Every time we catch one, they would beg for
mercy in the same way those women did. And some were even louder. Eventually, he got used to it, so
this is merely child''s y for him."
Her lips twitched slightly at that. "I see. That must have been tough." She gave Toby a look of
sympathy. Going through this just once was upsetting enough to her, but he had been through it so
many times that he had already gotten used to it. Naturally, her heart went out to him. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
