Chapter 359
“Sonia, what are you thinking?” Zane waved his hand in front of her when he saw her zoning out.
Then, her eyes flickered. “Nothing” she replied faintly.
“Then, Douglas...
She bit her lip as she seemed to be still considering.
Seeing this, Zane signaled Douglas. Hey, kid. Hurry up. It’s up to you whether you stay or not. I‘ve done my best
Silly Uncle Zane. You‘re the one who brought me here. You said that there was a misunderstanding between you and Aunt Sonia and that she was ignoring you. That‘s why you brought me over to be the peacemaker so that she would forgive you. So why are you dumping everything on me? I‘m just a baby. Douglas rolled his eyes.
Zane pouted. Stop this nonsense. Hurry! Be cute so that she would let you stay if you still want her to be your aunt. Then, you can put in a good word for me.
Helplessly, Douglas sighed like an adult. Then, he put on a calm expression and tugged Sonia‘s sleeve.
“Can‘t I stay with you? I don‘t want to stay at home alone. Please?” He looked at her pitifully and blinked
his big eyes, looking as if he was about to cry.
“Please, Sonia” Zane chimed in.
Sonia glanced at Zane and then at Douglas. Finally, her heart softened. She reached out to wipe the
tears off Douglas‘ face and nodded. “Alright, then. I‘ll help you to take care of Douglas for two days.”
“Awesome! I can finally live with Aunt Sonia!” Douglas giggled cheerfully.
“Thank you.” Zane bowed with a look of gratitude pasted on his face. In truth, he was overwhelmed with
excitement.
Good boy! As expected from the cutest baby of the Coleman Family! Good work for succeeding on the first try!
Right after, Zane put Douglas down. Zane crouched down and held Douglas as he reminded, “Be a good
boy these two days. Listen to Aunt Sonia, and don‘t be naughty, okay?”
You‘d better remember what your task is: It‘s to mediate our relationship. That‘s the actual reason why / brought you here.
Obediently, Douglas nodded. “I know. I‘ll be a good boy.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDon‘t worry, Uncle Zane. I‘ll see to it that Aunt Sonia forgives you. Just remember to get me my limited
edition Transformer.
“Good. Now, I can rest assured.” Zane patted Douglas‘ head.
I won‘t forget, so stop reminding me about it.
Then, Zane stood up and looked at Sonia. “I‘ll leave him to you, then.”
Unaware of the eye contact between both uncle and nephew, she nodded her head lightly and
answered, “Okay.”
“I‘ll leave now,” Zane said.
“Take care,” she responded.
Upon hearing this, he smiled bitterly at how quickly she wanted him to leave. She didn’t even offer him a
drink.
However, this was not the most disappointing.
What was most disheartening was when Douglas waved at him. “Goodbye, Uncle Zane!”
The corner of Zane‘s mouth couldn‘t help but twitch as he glared at Douglas.
That useless little brat. You could‘ve faked a cry and said that you couldn‘t bear seeing me leave when
she didn‘t ask me to stay for a drink. That way, I might have been able to stay a little longer.
Seeing through Zane‘s thoughts, Douglas made a face at Zane. Filled with anger, Zane‘s face twisted.
That rascal! I‘ve been wasting my love on him!
With a sigh, Zane headed toward the elevator.
As soon as Zane’s figure went out of sight at the elevator entrance, Sonia took Douglas into her house.
The next day, a phone call woke Sonia up.
It was Charles who called. “Darling, quick, check out what‘s online. Titus is holding a press conference.”
“A press conference?” She sat up from the bed immediately. “What‘s it about?”
“I’m not sure, but I think it has to do with Tina. After all, her being arrested by the police again yesterday
caused a huge commotion, and Triforce Enterprise was badly affected, so he can‘t just keep quiet,” he
noted.
Nodding her head, she said, “Okay. I‘ll take a look.”
After that, she put down her phone and lifted her blanket before heading to the study.
However, she went to another room before going to the study. Quietly, she opened the door and peeped
inside to see if Douglas was awake.
Seeing him sprawled out and sleeping soundly on the bed, she couldn‘t help but smile. Later on, she
closed the door and went to the study to turn on her laptop.
She clicked into Triforce Enterprise‘s official website and saw Titus‘ press conference live stream.
It had already started for a while. At that moment, Titus was answering the media’s questions about
Tina‘s rearrest.
Sonia paid serious attention because she wanted to hear what he had to say.
However, his answers were very formal. There was nothing explosive about them.
The media was greatly disappointed as they wanted something juicy. Yet, he gave them such generic
answers.
All of a sudden, a reporter stood up and asked, “President Gray, are you going to come up with a plan to
save your daughter?”
It was a penetrating question to ask.
A few media outlets had wanted to ask the same question but were afraid of facing criticism by the
authorities.
After all, asking a capitalist if he would get an alleged offender out of jail would only cause an outbreak of
war online.
Netizens were most sensitive about the capitalists‘ doing whatever they pleased and getting away with
everything. So, the media held back and decided not to ask.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnexpectedly, a hotheaded reporter asked this question. While they were surprised and anxious, they
were also envious of his bravery.
Meanwhile, in the VIP ward of the hospital, the wounds on Toby‘s back had been stabilized. Hence, he
was moved to the general ward from the intensive care unit.
At that moment, he was watching the press conference as well.
Hearing the reporter‘s question, he furrowed his brows.
“He must be a rookie reporter. Otherwise, he wouldn‘t have asked such a question,” Tom, who was
beside Toby, commented.
“It‘s alright. I‘d like to hear Titus‘ answer as well” Toby replied indifferently.
Though the question was penetrating, it was not easy to answer.
if Titus decides not to save Tina, the netizens will support him while the people in the business world will not. If he could betray a close relative just like that, there was no guarantee that he wouldn‘t betray them. As a result, he‘ll have a hard time getting around in the business world. However, if he decides to save her, not only will he be the target of criticism all over the Internet, but he‘ll also be taken away by the authorities. So, it would be interesting to know what he would say. To save, or not save?
In fact, Toby was not the only one who wanted to know Titus‘ answer. The media at the press
conference, the audience watching the press conference, and Sonia also wanted to know.
This question was like forcing Titus to the edge of a cliff because it wouldn‘t end well for him no matter
what he said.
He was well aware of his current situation. Glancing coldly at the reporter who asked the question, he
took a deep breath, looked into the camera, and answered, “Regarding this, my answer is no.”
Few people were surprised when he made this statement because everyone already knew that there
was a high chance of him deciding not to save Tina. Though he might have a hard time getting along
with others in the business world, the whole Internet would be supportive of him. Hence, it was likely for
him to choose not to save her. Then, he opened his mouth to speak again, “At the same time..
Quickly, everyone glanced at him.
“At the same time?” The reporter, who questioned him earlier, asked.
