Chapter 1378


    Anyhow, Lte refused to believe or evene close to epting the possibility that Toby got back


    with Sonia because he loved her.


    Sonia, on the other hand, couldn''t be bothered to exin herself anymore, seeing how affirmed Lte


    was in her notion.


    s, it was useless to convince someone who had their whole head stuck in their little world. They


    would never believe nor listen to anything that challenged their notion.


    So, why bother exining?


    "Oh, since that''s how you believe how things are, what are you going to do next?" asked Sonia as she


    tucked her wavy hair back, on the verge of not giving a duck anymore.


    "Expose your phony little mask in front of Toby and reim his leverage, of course!" Lte snarled.


    "Good idea." Sonia pped, apuding her. "And after that? Reim the leverage to save your dear


    Toby from jeopardy so that you can use it to threaten Toby to be with you, am I right?"


    "How did you—" Being called out, Lte turned subtly grim, then hurriedly backtracked her words with


    an evasive gaze when she realized what she was doing. "What are you talking about?! Who do you


    think I am to ckmail Toby with the leverage?! If you have nothing nice to say, don''t say anything at


    all, Reed! I''m not as vile and shameless as you are! I will naturally let Toby dispose of the leverage. No


    way would I do anything with it."


    While she ranted, her heart raced wildly.


    Goodness, I nearly blew it.


    Little did she think that Sonia would have such sharp instincts and hit the mark precisely.


    She was indeed going to threaten Toby with the very leverage that shackled him to Sonia after seizing


    it. If Sonia could seed, why couldn''t she?


    Though Toby might hate her for it, it didn''t matter. Once she was with Toby and became his rightful


    girlfriend, she would have all the time and ns in the world to coax Toby.


    She believed he would eventually be moved and fall in love with her if she took time and effort.


    By then, all the aversion and repulse she would face would be nothing.


    At that, Lte beamed as she reeled in the excitement and expectancy of the future.


    That said, she wasn''tpletely hysterical, so she hurriedly put her thoughts and emotions away after


    smiling for a moment, lest she exposed too much.


    But too bad for her because Sonia saw through everything.


    The young woman''s unfinished words, especially, looked absolutely ridiculous to Sonia.


    To think I have thought this girl is madly in love with Toby, but looking at things now, there isn''t much


    love, is there?


    Who would bear to use anything to threaten the very person they love to be with them?


    Thus, it was clear that Lte didn''t love Toby but the benefits that came along with him. Yet, the


    young woman loved to use true love to mask her vanity.


    A sliver of ridicule shed across Sonia''s eyes, but she couldn''t be bothered to call Lte out.


    Instead, she pped for the young woman and praised her perfunctorily, saying, "Wow, how noble of


    you, Miss Lore. So why don''t we go over to your beloved Toby now?"


    The expression on Lte''s face froze in response. See Toby? Now? No way!


    She hadn''t gotten anything on him, so seeing him now would do nothing for her, especially when she


    had snuck out.


    At that, her eyes darted everywhere nervously.


    Sonia, on the other hand, snorted disdainfully, seeing that the young woman was chickening out.


    To Lte, the snort was one of mockery and contempt from her love rival. Though it was a fact, for


    someone who had always been prideful, Lte naturally couldn''t take it at all. Hence, her anger got


    the better of her, and she snarled while ring daggers at Sonia.


    Because of her doll-like face, she looked like an angel when she smiled. However, when malice


    enveloped her face, she looked like the haunted doll from the horror movies that sent chills down


    people''s spines.


    Though it wasn''t to that extent for Sonia, she still felt ufortable, and she furrowed her brows in


    disdain. "What''s with the look, Miss Lore? Do you want to eat me up?"


    "Enough gloating, Reed. You better hand Toby''s leverage over if you know what''s best for you! Maybe I


    might be able to help keep you alive. I''m sure you know just what Toby is like. He would never let


    anyone threaten him. The only reason you''re still standing here today after threatening him is that you


    have something on him, or you would''ve long been dead meat. So, you better hand whatever it is over.


    As long as you hand it to me, I might be generous and consider interceding for you to Toby and ask him


    to spare your life. If you don''t, then it''s on you."


    Sonia couldn''t take it anymore after hearing Lte''s egotistical threat and chuckled with pursed lips.


    "What are youughing at?!" Offended, Lte turned grimmer by the second.


    "Your joke, of course. You said it yourself, Miss Lore. Toby would never spare anyone who dared


    threaten him. Since ckmail is the reason that I can still be alive today, why should I so idiotically


    hand it to you instead of continuing to use it? Would it just be a suicidal move? Also, you interceding for


    me? Ha, what a joke. We''re enemies! Would you want your enemy to live a good life? You may be able


    to fool an idiot with it, but you can''t fool me."


    At that, Sonia waved her finger with a smile. "Besides, you said it yourself. You might be generous and


    consider interceding. I''m sure the ''might'' here means ''no'', or why did you say you would instead of


    might? Hence, Miss Lore, I wouldn''t give up the leverage, much less hand it into your hands."


    "You!" Livid with rage, Lte red daggers at Sonia, surprised that Sonia could be so cunning. Not


    only was thetter not going to hand her the leverage, but she was even finding ws in her words,


    making her look illiterate.


    Meanwhile, Anya was just about to freshen up when she found Sonia as she turned into the corner not


    far from where the two were standing.


    Though all she saw was a back, there was only one fiery red dress of the design, and she knew


    Sonia''s figure like it was the back of her hand. Hence, she could tell at one nce that the back


    belonged to Sonia.

    To think I''d be so unlucky to run into this woman even in the washroom. Aversion enveloped Anya''s


    face as she clenched the armrest of her wheelchair. But what is Reed doing?


    With that, she retreated into the corner and peeked.


    As she had been looking straight ahead, Sonia''s back was all she could see. But now that she


    switched an angle, she finally saw more than that—Sonia was talking to someone.


    Is that a server? Anya wondered, unsure what Sonia had to talk to a server about. Is there something


    special about that girl?


    Withholding the notion that she could only defeat Sonia only by scrutinizing anything and everything


    that mattered to thetter, Anya finally spared the server a nce, seeing what was so important about


    the server that Sonia would spend time talking to her.


    Lo and behold, her gaze changed for the worse when she finally realized who it was.
