Tom’s helpless voice rang out. “President Fuller, I have received many calls from different news outlets wanting to have an interview with you. I’m guessing that all of them want to know your thoughts about Tina’s current situation.”
Toby frowned. “Which media outlets?”
“All of them besides the biggest few.”
He pursed his lips. “Warn them that they should be prepared for their company to face bankruptcy if they want to interview me!”
“Yes!” Tom nodded without any hesitance.
To be honest, he thought that those media outlets deserved what was coming to them. How dare they try to secure an interview with
President Fuller at this time just to stay valid! Are
they serious?
“By the way, President Fuller...” He thought of something and asked, “Remember when you wanted me to ask Miles whether he knew that your heart belongs to Quentin? I’ve already asked him and it seems like he has always known about it. That’s why he has been secretly observing you for the past six years and immediately appeared after the effect of the hypnosis on you weakened.”
Toby nodded a little. “I see!”
“Besides that, he will come to the company tomorrow to help to remove the hypnosis and the ideomotor effects as well as releasing your blocked memories,” Tom continued with his words.
After Toby hummed as a response, he asked, “Have you completed your investigation on
Quentin’s death?” “No.” Tom shook his head regretfully. “It happened six years ago after all, so it’ll be hard to investigate it again. I’ve already contacted the transport department and asked them to look for the footage of Quentin’s accident back then. If they can locate it, we will be able to start our investigation based on the surveillance.
However, it will be arduous if they can’t find it.”
Toby’s gaze darkened. “You can try by investigating Tina.”
“That probably won’t work.” Tom sighed. “If Quentin’s death is really related to her, she would never admit it. Even if she did, she could still argue in court that we forced her to admit that she was guilty since we can’t produce any decisive evidence. By then, she would still be released without any charges!”
Upon hearing that, Toby’s frown deepened.
Indeed, it was hard to sentence Tina without any concrete evidence against her. If it weren’t the case, he would have thrown her behind bars when his hypnosis weakened.
Still, Toby had no evidence of her trying to harm Sonia. Although Charles and Zane had witnessed what Tina did, they were Sonia’s acquaintances. It would make it easier for Tina to argue in court that those two were taking Sonia’s side.
Of course, Toby could always do things his way if the law couldn’t make Tina pay for what she did.
At the thought of that, his eyes glistened a little before he coldly instructed, “Alright. Continue investigating Quentin’s death. Also, generate a report based on all the past projects between us and Triforce Entreprise. I want it ready before the press release tomorrow.”
As he understood that Toby was preparing to completely sever ties with Triforce Enterprise, Tom nodded. “I’ll get to it!"
After that, Toby placed his phone down and stopped saying anything else.
The next morning, Sonia prepared to head to her office after freshening up and wearing her shoes.
Nonetheless, she noticed the man leaning against the wall right after she opened the door.
“It’s you?” Sonia was stunned as she frowned instinctively before she asked in a displeased tone, “Why are you here?”
After he straightened his back, Toby handed the paper bag that he was holding toward her.
“Have you eaten breakfast?”
She eyed the paper bag and asked, “Are you here to bring me breakfast?”
He nodded a little. “I also want to see you as well.”
“That’s funny.” Sonia chuckled coldly. “I don’t want to see you, though!”
At this moment, Toby’s gaze dimmed a little before he quickly recomposed himself and gently explained, “I bought you mango porridge and mango sago, which are your favorites. Why don’t you try them?”
Nevertheless, she wasn’t surprised when he knew what her favorite foods were since she mentioned them in the letters after all.
