Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 465

Toby wasn’t too surprised at Tom’s answer because when he asked the question, he already had the answer in his heart. After a few seconds, he narrowed his eyes and said, "In that case, then continue to have people keep an eye on Connor. Once he shows any irregular movement, immediately report to me."

Whether this person was his father's murderer, he still wanted someone to keep an eye on him. It was better to be safe than sorry.

"Certainly, President Fuller." Tom nodded and answered, then thought of something else and added, "Also, there is one more thing."

"What is it?"

"It's the Stryder Family in Norfolk and the Southfield Family in Seafield. They seem to be in conflict recently." "What’s the reason?" Toby asked.

Tom adjusted his glasses. "Melody Stryder caught Peter Southfield cheating, and in a fit of anger, she pushed him down the stairs, breaking his leg. Now the Southfield Family is completely against the Stryder Family because of this matter, and Peter is also making a fuss about a divorce."

"Did they get a divorce?" Toby raised his eyebrows.

Tom shook his head. "No, because Melody is not willing to divorce Peter. He did ask for a divorce before but had not succeeded, so this matter is projected to be a difficult one."

Learning about the situation, Toby sneered, "Melody and Tina were friends before, right?"

"Yes, they seemed to get along. Melody even went against Miss Reed for Tina. Remember that time when several banks jointly chased after Miss Reed about the loans? Melody was the one manipulating all this behind the scenes. Luckily you helped Miss Reed; otherwise, she and

Paradigm Co. would be finished," Tom said in a deep voice.

Toby’s eyes flashed. "In that case, help Peter."

Everyone knew how much Melody loved Peter. In order to marry him, she had even played dirty, so for Melody, Peter was her life. Once the divorce was successful, she would probably go crazy. Previously, he was hypnotized, so he did not do anything to Melody except help Sonia find a way to defuse Melody's plan. If not for Tom mentioning Melody, he would have forgotten that there was such a person. Now that he remembered, he would let Melody pay the price for what she did to Sonia. For Melody, the most painful price was for Peter to divorce her.

"Certainly, President Fuller. I’ll make arrangements," Tom said.

Toby waved his hand, indicating that he could leave first. Thus, Tom didn't say anything and turned around to excuse himself.

After he left, the ward was once again quiet. Toby took out his phone, flipped to Sonia's phone number, and was ready to call her. But when his finger hovered over the call button, he halted. Since it was already late at night, he didn’t know if she was asleep. If she was, would he disturb her?

While Toby was hesitating, the door of the ward suddenly rattled, as if something had fallen on the floor. Toby was startled for a moment, and at that point, his thumb accidentally tapped the call button.

Somewhat speechless, Toby looked at his phone screen. It seems that God wants me to contact her.

Soon, the call came through, and Sonia's confused voice came from the other end of the phone. "Who is it?"

When Toby heard the sleepiness in her voice, he knew she was really asleep, so he lightly opened his thin lips and said, "It's me. Sorry to disturb you."

"Hmm?" At the other end of the phone, Sonia was lying on her side on the bed with her eyes closed and one hand putting the phone to her ear. Clearly, she had no intention of waking up at all. So, she also didn't even hear who was on the other end of the phone and what was said.

Toby thought his voice was too soft and repeated, "It's me. I'm sorry to disturb you so late. I—"
