Chapter 628 Tom’s Pain

“Alright.” Toby nodded before following Sonia out.

More than 40 minutes later, they arrived at Paradigm Co..

After getting out of the car, she went around the head of the car to the other side and knocked on Toby’s car window. He then wound down the glass window.

She straightened her posture and said, “I’ll leave now. You and Tom should hurry to the Fuller Group. Remember to drive slowly on the road and be careful.”

“Don’t worry, Miss Reed. I won’t let anything happen to President Fuller.” Tom, who was seated in front, turned around to answer Sonia.

Then, Toby coldly glared at him. “Did I ask you to speak?”

It was Sonia’s reminder for him, but before he could even answer, he had been interrupted by Tom and was naturally upset as a result.

When he saw Toby’s warning gaze, Tom understood that he had spoken too much, so he retracted his neck as he hurriedly turned his head to the front in his quest to be invisible. Fine, I’ll keep my mouth shut and say nothing.

Seeing how nervous Tom was and how upset Toby looked while seated at the back seat, Sonia couldn’t help but be amused. “Alright, that’s enough. You two should hurry up and leave. It’ll be rush hour in a little while, so you should beat the traffic while you still can.”

 

Toby nodded slightly. “Okay. Tom, start the car.”

“Yes,” Tom replied from the front before starting the car engine.

 

Sonia suddenly thought of something, so she quickly placed her hand on Toby’s window to prevent him from closing it. “Wait.”

“What is it?” Toby asked as he removed his hand from the window buckle and looked at her.

She bit her lips and murmured, “Please don’t… switch off your phone for the next two days.”

She had promised Rose that she would accompany him on the anniversary of his mother’s death because Rose told her before that he would behave in a strange manner on that day.

Coincidentally, the anniversary happened to be in the coming two days. That was the reason why Sonia reminded him not to turn off his phone so that she could contact or locate him at any time.

However, Toby was confused by Sonia’s request. “Why?”

She lowered her eyes. “Please don’t ask me why. In short, just do as I say.”

It was impossible for her to tell him that the anniversary of his mother’s death was around the corner because she wasn’t sure how he would react to it emotionally.

After staring at Sonia for a while, Toby finally nodded in agreement. “Alright.”

She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. “You better keep your promise.”

“I never switch off my phone as it is always turned on 24 hours.” He took out his phone and brandished it.

Sonia nodded. “That’s great. Also, remember to keep your phone by your side at all times. Do you understand?”

“Yes,” Toby replied.

“Alright. Since there’s nothing else, I’m heading off. Bye!” She waved at the man before walking toward the entrance of Paradigm Co..

In the meantime, Toby stared at her back for a while until she entered the building. Then, he withdrew his gaze and wound up the car window before opening his thin lips. “Start the car.”

“Yes,” Tom replied and started the engine.

On the road, Tom hesitated several times and he finally couldn’t help but look into the rearview mirror to ask, “President Fuller, why do you think Miss Reed said that to you just now? Why does she want you to always turn on your phone for the next two days and not let it leave your side?”

Toby lowered his eyes without answering him. Why? It’s probably because it’s my mother’s death anniversary. Otherwise, why would she ask me to do so only for the next two days and not any other day? Except this, I can’t think of any other reasons. As to how she found out about the anniversary of my mother’s death, I’m afraid that someone told her and I think I know who it was. Two nights ago, Grandma specially brought Sonia away to speak to her alone in the gazebo. It seems like that was what she told Sonia.
