Chapter 170,Boss, Your Wifeâs Asking for A Divorce, Again!
Since Toby allowed it, Tom didnât need to hold back anymore. He nodded and said, âMiss Gray showed
up not long after I accepted Miss Reedâs proposal. She was here to hand in her companyâs proposal as
well. Halfway through, I had to leave to make some coffee for Miss Gray, so I left all the proposals in the
room, and there wasnât anyone besides her back then.â There was no need for further explanation from
Tom, since everyone could see Tina was the one who did the switcheroo. Toby stared down,
disappointed in Tinaâs behavior. âNonsense!â
Titus shot up and glared at Tom. âHow dare you slander my daughter! Toby, your assistant is spewing
lies!â Titus knew his daughter was the one who did it, but he couldnât admit to it no matter what.
âPresident Gray, Iâm an honest man. I didnât lie at all. If you donât believe me, I can show you the
surveillance cameraâs footage,â Tom rebutted unhappily. He worked to his bone to get to where he was,
so he wouldnât slander anyone, or he would have been fired a long time ago. All the color drained from
Titusâ face when Tom said he had evidence to back him up.
Sonia mocked, âWhat a nice daughter you have, President Gray. She went really far to get this deal,
didnât she?â âTrue. This is an⦠eye-opening experience, so to speak,â someone agreed. Titus was
fuming, but he couldnât do anything. All he wanted to do then was find some place to hide, for there was
nothing but humiliation for him here. He had never felt so embarrassed before, not even when he was
arrested. After all, nobody knew what he did to warrant the arrest, but this time, it was different. Everyone
knew Tina did a switcheroo, and they even thought Titus was behind it.
He could imagine how everyone in the circle would view him after this. Rage was filling Titus up. He
hated Sonia for exposing the truth, for not taking the hit like he wanted her to. He hated Toby for
exposing him publicly, but most of all, he hated Tina for doing this. âPresident Fuller.â Since Titus had lost
the battle, Sonia lost interest in him. So she turned to Toby. âNow that the truth is clear, what will you do,
President Fuller? Will you keep working with President Gray, orâ¦â Toby interrupted, âNow that we know
the truth, I hereby announce that we shall no longer be working with Titus Gray.
President Reed shall be our new partner from now on. Any objections?â He looked at everyone.
Everyone shook their heads. âNo.â Titusâ spot belonged to Sonia in the first place, and not to mention
Soniaâs proposal was a decent one. âWhat about you, President Gray?â Toby looked at Titus. Titus forced
a smile. âNo, not at all.â Not that I can do anything even if I do. Toby nodded and turned back to Sonia.
âYou heard them. What do you think?â âGreat.â Sonia was delighted, for she finally got the partnership
after going through so much. Yes! I won the bet. In your face, Asher. She clenched her fists in
excitement.
A smile curled Tobyâs lips as he shared her happiness, but the smile only lasted a moment. He was about
to say something, but then Sonia blurted, âBut this isnât enough, President Fuller.â Hearing that, everyone
in the room buzzed with excitement. Oh ho. Seems like sheâs a greedy one. Sheâs not satisfied with just
the proposal and the deal, huh? Someoneâs in trouble. Titus barked, âDonât push your luck, Sonia!â Sonia
glanced at him calmly. âWhat do you mean âpush my luck?â Iâm the victim here, so why shouldnât I get fair
compensation? That reminds me, President Gray.
Youâre the perpetrator here, and not only are you not apologizing, but youâre even yelling at me. Thatâs a
bit too much, donât you think?â âWhy youâ¦â Titusâ eyes were starting to roll to the back from fury. But
Sonia ignored him and turned back to Toby. âPresident Fuller, I handed in my proposal in your company,
but yet someone still managed to switch it out. Youâre the boss, so take some responsibility here. You
donât want everyone losing their trust in the Fuller Group, do you?â âPresident Reed is right.â Someone
nodded. âYou should take some responsibility here, President Fuller.â
Toby sat up straight. âWe take full responsibility for this fiasco. I sincerely apologize for our staffâs
mistake, Miss Reed.â Then he stood up, put his hand on his belly, and bowed at her. Tom did the same
thing. âThis is all my fault, Miss Reed. Iâm really sorry for this.â Soniaâs mood took a turn for the better
after they apologized, then she looked at Titus. âPresident Fuller has apologized. What about you,
President Gray?â âYou want me to apologize too?â Titus stared at her in disbelief. Sonia smiled. âWhy
not? Yes, you werenât the one who did it, but you could potentially be the mastermind.
Even if you arenât, you wanted to sweep this under the rug and pretend the proposalâs not mine. If Mr.
Brown didnât bring up the fact that he has evidence, you would have insisted that my proposal is yours.
Shouldnât you apologize for that?â âPresident Reed is right, President Gray. You insisted that the
proposalâs yours, not hers. Everyone saw that too. We know what you were planning, so youâd better say
sorry before things get worse for you.â Someone laughed. Titus was shivering with anger, but he couldnât
retort, or everyone would think of him as a joke even more.
He took a deep breath, held his fury down, and glared darkly at Sonia. âFine, Iâll apologize. Iâm sorry.
Happy?â âYou donât sound too willing to me, but itâs already good enough that you apologized. Iâll
reluctantly accept your apology, then.â Sonia chuckled. That almost knocked Titus out. What do you
mean âreluctantlyâ? Iâll get back at you for this one day! âTom,â Toby said all of a sudden. âTell everyone
that Tina will have to make an appointment every time she wants to come to the company from now on.
Sheâs no longer allowed to come and go as she pleases.â
Tom adjusted his glasses. âYes, sir.â âToby, you canâtâ¦â Titus gawked at Toby, for he couldnât believe
what he just heard. Sonia couldnât believe it either. Toby looked at her for a moment before turning his
attention to Titus. âThis is the price Tina must pay.â Titus wanted to argue, but he couldnât. From then on,
Soniaâs opinion about Toby changed a little, since she never thought heâd actually punish Tina when all
he ever did was spoil her.
Looks like itâs gonna rain gold today. Titus took a deep breath and said, âI donât feel so good, Toby. I will
take my leave now.â Heâd only get humiliated further if he stayed any longer. Toby knew he was just
trying to escape the humiliation, so he nodded. âSend President Gray off, Tom.â âYes.â
Tom grunted in obligation, then he invited Titus to go with him. After Titus was gone, Toby clapped. âLetâs
continue the meeting, then.â Thus, Sonia sat down and went on with the meeting. On the other hand,
Titus stormed back home, obviously upset. Julia was in the middle of her skincare routine when he came
home. She was shocked to see him looking so angry. âYouâre early today, dear. Is the meeting done
already?â
âThatâs no meeting. I would have had a heart attack if I stayed there any longer.â Titus slammed his
briefcase down on the sofa. Julia took her facial mask off. âWhat happened?â
