Chapter 1185 Put the Blame on Others

Sonia knew Toby like the back of her hand. So, she knew that he loved to shower her with affection and then push

his chances for something more.

Now that she had kissed him, if she stayed put until he regained his composure, he would definitely kiss her back

and directly aim for her lips. Moreover, he would not let her go until he had enough. Therefore, she had to seize the

chance and make her escape to freedom.

Thus, she quickly opened the door, got out of the car, and closed the door. It took her less than a minute to do it,

and the whole process was smooth and swift. She had always maintained the mantra ‘slow and steady wins the

race’. Hence, judging from her speedy actions, it just indicated how ‘frightened’ she was about how he showed his

affection.

Still, after Sonia got out of the car, she looked through the window and waved with a smile. The window was tinted,

and she couldn’t see him clearly, but it didn’t stop her from waving her goodbyes before walking around the back

of the car and toward Paradigm Co.

Toby, who was inside the vehicle, finally snapped back to his senses. He touched his cheek and looked at the empty

seat beside him. Then, he abruptly turned to look out the window and saw Sonia’s figure rounding the rear of the

car.

He knew that she was walking to the office, so he quickly wound down his window.

She happened to hear the sound of the window lowering, so she instinctively halted her movements and turned to

look. Toby’s handsome face greeted her as their eyes met.

“You escaped after you kissed me, huh?” Toby opened his lips and teased in a low and pleasant voice.

“Of course!” Sonia grinned. “If I waited any longer, you might kiss me back and not let me leave, am I right?”

A trace of guilt flashed across his eyes because she was correct in her assumption. He coughed lightly and blurted,

“No, I wouldn’t do that.”

“Yeah, right! Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking?” Sonia crossed her arms and huffed. Then, she smiled

brightly. “Hurry up and go. Goodbye! See you tonight.” She waved at him again.

Toby knew that it was impossible to ask her to come back and kiss her other cheek, let alone kiss her more

passionately. He sighed under his breath, and the disappointment on his face was apparent. “Bye. See you tonight.”

She knew precisely why he was disappointed as she noticed the forlorn expression on his face. She rolled her eyes

in exasperation and continued to saunter toward Paradigm Co.

Toby did not roll up the window and ordered Tom to drive away. Instead, he kept looking at her as she strode

forward. It wasn’t until she entered the Paradigm Co. building that he rolled up the window and knocked on the

partition.

Tom, who was behind the wheel, heard the knock and knew that it was Toby’s silent order for him to drive. He

immediately started the car and lowered the partition with a grin. “Mr. Fuller, it took Miss Reed quite some time to

get out of the car. I bet you guys spent a long time saying your goodbyes, huh?”

Well, what he meant by ‘saying goodbyes’ was the physical intimacy between a couple, such as kissing, hugging,

and whatnot.

However, Toby was not in the mood to respond to Tom’s teasing. Instead, he glared at him with a cold expression

and hissed, “Your bonus for this month is deducted by half.”

“What?!” Tom gasped in utter bewilderment, and his expression changed radically. “Why?”

Wait a minute! Why does Mr. Fuller want to deduct my bonus?! He should give him an increment, shouldn’t he?

After I parked the car, I raised the partition to give them privacy so they could spend lovey-dovey time together! I

was so thoughtful and considerate, but instead of giving me a bonus, Mr. Fuller wants to deduct my bonus in half!

Why?! This is so unfair!

In his mind, Tom grumbled in great dismay.

“Why?” Toby gave a derisive snort. “You suggested I watch those romantic dramas and s, saying that I could

learn a thing or two about how to be romantic and become a charismatic and irresistible man. Oh, yeah, I learned

all of that, alright, but did you know what Little Leaf said?! She said that the characters in those dramas are sleazy,

tacky, and not the slightest bit charming! She even said that if it hadn’t been for my good looks, she would have

thought that I was a sleazy and tacky man too by doing all those weird things to her! I almost ended up being a

tacky man because of your stupid suggestion! I’m already being merciful by not firing you! Yet you have the cheek

to complain about the bonus!”

“Uh…” Tom’s mouth was agape in shock.

He didn’t know what he had done wrong earlier, but this reason was not what he had expected at all.

“That’s not right.” Tom retorted doubtfully while driving, “Why does Miss Reed think those characters are tacky? All

the female netizens are those actors’ fanatic fans, cheering them on. They never say that those characters are

tacky, but they say that they are so handsome and charming. That’s why I figured that Miss Reed would like them

too, so I recommended you watch the dramas. I never expected that she wouldn’t like them.”

At this moment, Tom apparently did not realize that those fanatic fans who adored the actors in the dramas and

s were young girls in their teens or late teens. They were not emotionally mature, and their life experience

was limited, so they took a fancy to these characters and did not find anything wrong with them. But, alas, Sonia

was a twenty-seven-year-old mature woman with different perspectives and preferences about men, which was

why she found those characters lacking.

Therefore, Tom had accidentally treated Sonia as a young girl and assumed that all the girls loved those characters

and wondered why Sonia didn’t like those men. Clearly, not every woman had the same taste in men.

Toby didn’t know what Tom was thinking about, and he was indifferent as he listened to Tom’s explanation and

thought of them as excuses.

“What do you know? You don’t even have a girlfriend! I don’t know how you have the cheek to teach me about

relationships.” Toby side-eyed him, and the disdain in his eyes was apparent.

His glare made Tom feel like countless daggers had stabbed his heart. The heartache was so intense that he almost

suffocated. His hands, which were gripping the steering wheel, were trembling slightly.

Argh, it hurts so much! Mr. Fuller, you’re so cruel! Yes, I don’t have a girlfriend. I’m single, so what?! Don’t I have a

right to say anything? Can’t I teach another man about relationships?

I may not have a girlfriend, but I have a lot of theoretical knowledge, so why can’t I teach you?

Speaking of which, when I gave you my suggestion, you didn’t say that my idea was lousy. You listened to me

seriously and even did as I told you. Now that the results were not satisfactory, you blamed everything on me!

You’re being ridiculous!

I didn’t force you to take me seriously! You wanted to listen to my advice. Now that the plan failed, you are blaming

everything on me instead of blaming yourself! It makes no sense!

Of course, Tom only dared to curse Toby in his mind but did not dare to voice his complaints aloud. He didn’t even

dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction toward Toby, for he was confident that Toby would send him to Ibira

immediately.

Therefore, not only did he have to take the blame despite his dismay, but he also had to apologize to Toby.

Well, this was the sorrow of a desk jockey.

Tom lamented his fate, but at least his pay was above average. He may be a single pringle, but he wasn’t a broke

single pringle!
