Chapter 769
Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again
Chapter 769 Do as You Are Told Noticing that Toby pursed his lips, Sonia reached out to hold his face gently. âAlright. Stop frowning. I honestly donât feel aggrieved about it. As long as you stay by my side and understand my pain and emotions, nothing else really matters.â
Nevertheless, Toby sighed when he met Soniaâs serious gaze. âBut, I feel like youâre wronged.â
âSince you think that I was wronged, you can make up for me in other ways. As for Anya, just do as I say and donât cause any casualties. She didnât do anything other than throw empty threats,â Sonia suggested.
As she insisted, he could only go along with her decisions. âAlright. Iâll get Tom to arrange something.â
Then, he turned around to grab his phone by the side of the bed and sent Tom a message. At the same time, Tom was in a confrontation with Anya outside of the hospital ward.
When Anya noticed that Tom was alone and no one else was present, her gaze darkened. She tilted her head a little to look behind Tom as if she wanted to see if anyone was behind him.
Noticing what Anya was doing, Tom had his face darkened before he closed the door and asked in a hostile tone, âWhat do you think you are trying to do?â
Right then, Anyaâs gaze wavered before she looked away and smiled. âNothing.â
Tom harrumphed. âDonât think I donât know what youâre looking for.â
You want to see President Fuller, huh? I wonât let things go your way.
Anya pursed her lips. Then, she acted as if she hadnât heard what Tom said and pushed her stray hair to the back of her ear before asking, âMr.
Brown, is President Fuller getting better now?â
âWell, thanks to you, President Fuller woke up in the hospital bed when he could have done so in Miss Reedâs bed,â Tom replied snarkily.
Upon hearing Tomâs words, Anya felt her face twitch a little before she recomposed her emotion and smiled gently again. This time, there was a hint of joy in her eyes. âMr. Brown, are you saying that President Fuller regained consciousness?â
Tom harrumphed and didnât answer or deny what Anya said, which indicated that Toby had indeed regained consciousness.
Anya clapped her hands together. âThatâs great! Itâs good news that President Fuller finally regained his consciousness! Mr. Brown, can you let me enter and talk to him?â
Immediately, Tom got alerted before he dashed toward the entrance of Tobyâs ward and blocked it. âYou want to meet President Fuller?â
âYes.â Although Anya was furious when she saw Tomâs action, she didnât let it show. Instead, she sighed and explained in a guilty manner, âI know that President Fuller and you got into an accident because of me, so Iâm hoping that I can meet President Fuller to apologize to him andââ
âAnd stay by his side to take care of him?â Tomâs gaze turned cold while Anya blushed. âI do have the responsibility to take care of President Fuller till he heals. I caused the harm, after all.â
âWow.â Tom chuckled in disbelief. âMiss Steinfeld, I would advise you to drop that idea because what you told Miss Reed had already upset her. Do you think President Fuller would allow you to stay, considering how loyal he is to Miss Reed? Moreover, President Fuller doesnât need any more helpers and doesnât like strangers invading his personal space, so you donât need to offer to take care of him. Besides, all of us know that thatâs actually a lie to get closer to President Fuller, anyway.â
Anyaâs face turned pale after she heard what Tom said. Instantly, she lowered her head awkwardly. âIâm not. I justââ
âThatâs enough!â Tom rolled his eyes. âNo one cares if you did or didnât. To make things easier for you to understand, President Fuller doesnât need your care now, and itâs better if you keep those desires of yours to yourself because President Fuller has a girlfriend now, and he loves her very much. President Fuller is loyal to his girlfriend, and there wonât be anyone else besides her, not to mention someone like you. Besides, youâre in a completely different world from him, so itâs better if you drop those thoughts of yours, or youâll be the one who ends up getting hurt in the end.â
Anya bit her lip and went quiet. It seemed like she was hurt by Tomâs straightforwardness.
Nevertheless, Tom didnât soften up, despite noticing Anyaâs reaction. Instead, he glanced at his watch before saying, âAlright. Itâs time to get to the point after all that nonsense just now. Miss Reed had already told President Fuller everything that you told her last night. Right now, President Fuller is very upset at your attitude toward Miss Reed, so heââ
âIs he going to come after me on behalf of Miss Reed?â Anyaâs hands, which were placed on her thighs, balled up into fists.
At this moment, Tom glanced at Anya and noticed her uneasiness. However, he didnât pity her at all before he answered calmly, âSince you didnât cause President Fullerâs accident on purpose, he wonât make a fuss about what happened yesterday. Everything will be settled by the books, and youâll have to pay for compensation. If youâre unwilling to do so, we will see you in court.â
âIâll pay for compensation!â Anya nodded without hesitation before she said, âI am the one who caused the accident, so I should bear responsibility for it and pay for compensation.â
Tom nodded slightly. âThatâs great. Regarding how you talked to Miss Reed last night, President Fuller wants you to broadcast your apology to Miss Reed, along with the reason youâre sorry. As long as you carry out President Fullerâs requests, heâll let you off the hook.â
Anyaâs face turned pale. âE-Explain why Iâm sorry?â
âBingo!â Tom grinned at Anya, causing her face to turn even paler before she clenched her fists tighter. She then gulped before asking in a panicked manner, âDonât President Fuller know... how cruel it is to account for my mistakes and apologize in front of the public?â
Although what Anya said to Sonia last night wasnât direct, everyone would be able to tell what she was implying, and she knew what would happen once she explained why she apologized to the public.
âThis is none of President Fullerâs concerns. Since you had the guts to do something like that, you should be able to handle the consequences of doing so,â Tom crossed his arms before he nonchalantly remarked while Anya started trembling. âItâs Miss Reed, isnât it?â
âWhat?â Tom raised his eyebrows.
What is she talking about?
Anya met his gaze with red eyes. âMiss Reed told President Fuller to do this, didnât she?â
Right then, Tom finally understood what Anya meant.
Does she actually think that Miss Reed was the one who wanted President Fuller to request a public apology? Wow! What a joke. Although Miss Reed could do something like that, this is definitely President Fullerâs own doing, based on my understanding. After all, how could she have told President Fuller what to do when she was sound asleep next to him?
Tomâs face darkened. âMiss Steinfeld, you might have misunderstood things. Miss Reed had never made such a request, and all of these are President Fullerâs decisions.â
âThatâs impossible!â Anya retorted, while Tom rolled his eyes at her. âHow is it impossible? Youâve only met President Fuller once, and he wasnât even conscious. Do you even understand him? How can you tell that this is not President Fullerâs decision when you donât even know him?â
âIââ Anya paused before she went quiet.
Then, she lowered her head to hide the dark glint in her eyes while feeling resentful.
Who says that I donât understand Toby? Of course, I understand him. However, Toby back then, and Toby right now...
Anyaâs gaze faltered before she stopped herself from thinking further.

ï¤Chapter 1211 Ending On the other hand, Tom couldnât be bothered to waste his time with Anya any longer as he uncrossed his arms. âAll of this is President Fullerâs decision. You might not know how much he loves Miss Reed, but I can tell you that President Fuller definitely wouldnât let you off the hook if you upset Miss Reed, so itâs better if you do as you are told, or youâll have to pay for what youâve done. Do you understand me?â
