This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 769

Chapter 769 Do as You Are Told

Noticing that Toby pursed his lips, Sonia reached out to hold his face gently. “Alright. Stop frowning. I honestly don’t feel aggrieved about it. As long as you stay by my side and understand my pain and emotions, nothing else really matters.”

Nevertheless, Toby sighed when he met Sonia’s serious gaze. “But, I feel like you’re wronged.”

“Since you think that I was wronged, you can make up for me in other ways. As for Anya, just do as I say and don’t cause any casualties. She didn’t do anything other than throw empty threats,” Sonia suggested.

As she insisted, he could only go along with her decisions. “Alright. I’ll get Tom to arrange something.”

Then, he turned around to grab his phone by the side of the bed and sent Tom a message. At the same time, Tom was in a confrontation with Anya outside of the hospital ward.

When Anya noticed that Tom was alone and no one else was present, her gaze darkened. She tilted her head a little to look behind Tom as if she wanted to see if anyone was behind him.

Noticing what Anya was doing, Tom had his face darkened before he closed the door and asked in a hostile tone, “What do you think you are trying to do?”

Right then, Anya’s gaze wavered before she looked away and smiled. “Nothing.”

Tom harrumphed. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re looking for.”

You want to see President Fuller, huh? I won’t let things go your way.

Anya pursed her lips. Then, she acted as if she hadn’t heard what Tom said and pushed her stray hair to the back of her ear before asking, “Mr. Brown, is President Fuller getting better now?”

“Well, thanks to you, President Fuller woke up in the hospital bed when he could have done so in Miss Reed’s bed,” Tom replied snarkily.

Upon hearing Tom’s words, Anya felt her face twitch a little before she recomposed her emotion and smiled gently again. This time, there was a hint of joy in her eyes. “Mr. Brown, are you saying that President Fuller regained consciousness?”

Tom harrumphed and didn’t answer or deny what Anya said, which indicated that Toby had indeed regained consciousness.

Anya clapped her hands together. “That’s great! It’s good news that President Fuller finally regained his consciousness! Mr. Brown, can you let me enter and talk to him?”

Immediately, Tom got alerted before he dashed toward the entrance of Toby’s ward and blocked it. “You want to meet President Fuller?”

“Yes.” Although Anya was furious when she saw Tom’s action, she didn’t let it show. Instead, she sighed and explained in a guilty manner, “I know that President Fuller and you got into an accident because of me, so I’m hoping that I can meet President Fuller to apologize to him and—”

“And stay by his side to take care of him?” Tom’s gaze turned cold while Anya blushed. “I do have the responsibility to take care of President Fuller till he heals. I caused the harm, after all.”

“Wow.” Tom chuckled in disbelief. “Miss Steinfeld, I would advise you to drop that idea because what you told Miss Reed had already upset her. Do you think President Fuller would allow you to stay, considering how loyal he is to Miss Reed? Moreover, President Fuller doesn’t need any more helpers and doesn’t like strangers invading his personal space, so you don’t need to offer to take care of him. Besides, all of us know that that’s actually a lie to get closer to President Fuller, anyway.”

Anya’s face turned pale after she heard what Tom said. Instantly, she lowered her head awkwardly. “I’m not. I just—”

“That’s enough!” Tom rolled his eyes. “No one cares if you did or didn’t. To make things easier for you to understand, President Fuller doesn’t need your care now, and it’s better if you keep those desires of yours to yourself because President Fuller has a girlfriend now, and he loves her very much. President Fuller is loyal to his girlfriend, and there won’t be anyone else besides her, not to mention someone like you. Besides, you’re in a completely different world from him, so it’s better if you drop those thoughts of yours, or you’ll be the one who ends up getting hurt in the end.”

Anya met his gaze with red eyes. “Miss Reed told President Fuller to do this, didn’t she?”

Right then, Tom finally understood what Anya meant.

Does she actually think that Miss Reed was the one who wanted President Fuller to request a public apology? Wow! What a joke. Although Miss Reed could do something like that, this is definitely President Fuller’s own doing, based on my understanding. After all, how could she have told President Fuller what to do when she was sound asleep next to him?

Tom’s face darkened. “Miss Steinfeld, you might have misunderstood things. Miss Reed had never made such a request, and all of these are President Fuller’s decisions.”

“That’s impossible!” Anya retorted, while Tom rolled his eyes at her. “How is it impossible? You’ve only met President Fuller once, and he wasn’t even conscious. Do you even understand him? How can you tell that this is not President Fuller’s decision when you don’t even know him?”

“I—” Anya paused before she went quiet.

Then, she lowered her head to hide the dark glint in her eyes while feeling resentful.

Who says that I don’t understand Toby? Of course, I understand him. However, Toby back then, and Toby right now…

Anya’s gaze faltered before she stopped herself from thinking further.

On the other hand, Tom couldn’t be bothered to waste his time with Anya any longer as he uncrossed his arms. “All of this is President Fuller’s decision. You might not know how much he loves Miss Reed, but I can tell you that President Fuller definitely wouldn’t let you off the hook if you upset Miss Reed, so it’s better if you do as you are told, or you’ll have to pay for what you’ve done. Do you understand me?”
