Chapter 1146

"Got it," Toby answered.

"Although they were sincere at offering their apology, I wouldn't have forgiven them because of that. If they were

polite, I would have changed my mind about them; if they showed that they were remorseful about what they had

done and not blame their faults on me in future, I wouldn't be bothered by them. However, they weren't even able

to show basic respect, yet they expected me to forgive them and put in a good word for them. It was just

ridiculous!" Sonia rubbed her temples as she spoke.

"I've been too forgiving toward them in the past and never really monitored them, subsequently encouraging their

arrogant behavior. They assume they're able to do whatever they want just by using my name. As such, I'm

responsible for this," Toby responded.

After all, he was the one who had brought the Lore Family under his protection. Therefore, he was correspondingly

responsible for how the Lore Family would behave in the future. On top of that, Toby would have to teach them a

lesson for the mistakes they had made. However, he wasn't familiar with the character of the Lore Family and

assumed that they were reasonable people and wouldn't act beyond measure. Because of this, he rarely

questioned nor restricted them with the belief that they wouldn't cause trouble, so much so that his connivance

gave the Lore Family the audacity to cause trouble. They even believed that they didn't have to pay the price for

offending Sonia, the woman Toby loved. This was why he felt sorry toward the woman.

Hearing that, she sighed and uttered, "It's fine. I know that no matter what I tell you, you would still think that it's

your fault. Since that's the case, I shall not get involved in the matters that would follow. You'll be in charge of

taking care of the matter regarding the Lore Family, and I hope that you won't let me down."

She thought that they would stop coming to see her since she refused to help them out. Moreover, she couldn't

stand to speak to the brainless Lore Family and had decided to pass the task over to Toby, who was the most

suitable candidate for the job.

However, Toby knew that Sonia was doing this so that he could have a chance to make it up to her, which warmed

his heart. He was determined about it and answered confidently, "Alright, I will not let you down."

"That's good. Have you eaten?" Sonia asked after letting out a laugh.

"Not yet. My meeting with one of the foreign investors just ended, so I haven't had time to have my meal." He

pinched his glabella.

"It's way past your lunch time." Sonia frowned and was unhappy about it. "This won't do. Go and get Tom to prepare

something for you to eat now so that you can at least fill your stomach. You shouldn't let yourself starve." Toby

chucked when he heard how concerned she was. "What are you laughing at? Let's end the call so that you can get

Toby to buy some food for you. We can still talk when we get home tonight."

"Sure." Toby nodded and answered with a smile before looking over at Tom. "Did you hear what Sonia said?" he

asked.

"Yes, President Fuller. I'll get it arranged." Tom nodded.

With that, he immediately took his phone out and sent out a text. Tom admitted that he had overlooked it as he had

planned to prepare Toby's lunch after he was done with his work like how he usually did. He never expected Sonia

to check in on them this time round. Given the situation, he decided that regardless of whether Toby was occupied

with work, he would still prepare lunch in advance in order to appease Sonia. Toby would definitely be glad if she

was happy, and Toby might raise his bonus because of that. Tom's eyes lit up at the thought of that.

Toby, who was unaware of Tom's thoughts, ended the call with Sonia. As he was about to say something after

putting his phone down, someone knocked on the door.

Hearing that, Tom looked at the door and responded, "I'll go get it, President Fuller."

Toby signaled Tom to open the door by waving at him. Tom then carefully kept his phone before walking over to the

door and opened it. A well-dressed man in a suit was seen standing outside.

"Mr. Brown, is President Fuller in?" the man asked politely.

"What is it about?" Tom asked the secretary who was standing outside.

The secretary didn't beat around the bush and immediately flipped open the file that was placed in between his

armpits before pulling out a gold and purple invitation card. He handed it over to Tom and said, "This is an invitation

for President Fuller from the Lore Family."

"What?" Tom picked at his ear, thinking that he had misheard the man's words. "Did you say that it is from the Lore

Family?"

"Yes." The man nodded. "It's from the Lore Family that you know of."

Oh, great. Tom rolled his eyes and uttered, "Why are they suddenly sending out invites? What are they up to now?"

Hearing that, the secretary smiled and replied, "This invitation was passed to us by the butler of the Lore Family. We

were told that they were hosting a welcoming back party for Miss Lore as she would be returning from overseas.

This party is hosted in order to introduce Miss Lore to everyone, which is why they are handing out invites. They're

hoping you'd attend the party with Miss Reed."

Hearing that, Tom smiled and muttered, "So it's a debutante for Lynette." He then patted the invitation card and

ridiculed, "Why are they making such a big fuss about her returning to the country? Everyone in the circle was

aware that Lynette is from the Lore Family. Do they have to purposely host a debutante for her? It's obvious they're

just coming up with a reason to meet President Fuller in order to smooth things out with him. Alright, I got it. You

can get going. I'll pass this to the president."

"Alright, Mr. Brown." The secretary nodded and left.

After Tom closed the door, he walked toward Toby and passed him the invitation card without saying a word.

Although Toby didn't speak to the secretary, he had heard Tom's entire conversation moments ago. Toby furrowed

his brows after taking a look at it and stuffed it into his drawer, uninterested.

Seeing that, Tom asked, "President Fuller, will you be attending?"

"Nope," answered Toby as he closed the drawer impassively.

Even so, Tom wasn't surprised at the way Toby stuffed the card into his drawer, showing that he was uninterested in

attending. Thus, he stopped asking about it.

"Go and check when Lynette will be coming back." Toby suddenly spoke.

"Got it." Tom nodded and turned around before walking out.

After he left, Toby leaned on his chair with his arms folded while deep in thought as he narrowed his gaze.

Meanwhile, Sonia had been busy with work after she ended the call with Toby. Not long later, Charles suddenly

turned up at her office.

She was surprised to see him carrying a big basket into her room. "What brings you here?" She stood up and

asked."

"My mom visited my maternal grandmother yesterday and brought back some dried porcini mushrooms. She

knows that you love them, so she got me to send some over to you. Here you go." With that, he passed the basket

to her.

"That's a lot!" She pointed at the basket and exclaimed.

"Is it?" He looked at it.

"This is a huge basket. I think it weighs almost ten pounds." She covered her mouth with her hand.
