A Phone Call from Zane
Little Leaf has an inferiority complex. She would take the initiative to end our relationship if Harry told
her she is unworthy of me.
Even if she does not agree, this will scar her and she will begin to doubt her relationship with me. After
all, it is my respected teacher who dissuades her.
Little Leaf will undoubtedly feel inferior if Harry deems us to be unfit. Toby massaged his temples. It
appears I should prevent them from seeing each other.
I should also visit him less frequently. Ugh, I hate to listen to his criticisms every time I see him. Toby
sighed lightly before facetiming Sonia.
Meanwhile, Sonia was completing some paperwork. She took much longer than usual to process a
document since she was suddenly dragged into a pool of Internet scandal out of nowhere. Had she not
distracted herself with work, she would have been preoccupied with the online scandals instead.
As such, the former seemed like a much better and healthier option to go on with the day. After all,
what more could she do than to keep reading those self-destructive comments online?
Suddenly, her phone that had been set aside rang unexpectedly; it was a video call.
Sonia set down her pen and turned to take a look at her phone screen, which flashed with Toby’s invite
to a video call.
She assumed he was done with his meeting and Tom had informed him about what was going on,
hence his phone call.
She pursed her red lips and complicated her expression as she looked at Toby’s call ID on the screen.
She had no intention of answering the phone; instead, she zoned out for a long time as the phone rang.
When the FaceTime invitation was finally disconnected, she awoke in a trance to find that the video
had been hung up.
Sonia bit her lower lip as a guilty expression flashed across her face.
She was upset at herself that she spaced out and missed Toby’s video call.
With that being said, she had no plans to call him back. As the anxious feelings stemmed from the
uncertainty of the culprit’s relationship with Toby, Sonia was concerned that once he had found out the
identity of the mastermind, he would advise her to proceed in a low-profile manner instead.
If so, she would be at a loss for how to deal with Toby and her feelings for him. It’s okay, I don’t need to
take the call. At least I will be at peace of mind for a little while…
“Miss Reed.” Several knocks outside the door were followed by Daphne’s voice.
Sonia looked up and saw Daphne standing at the door before getting up quickly, “You’re back.”
“Yes,” Daphne nodded before approaching the president.
“So?” Sonia asked worriedly.
“Miss Reed, the surveillance footage has been deleted, just as we suspected,” Daphne said, shaking
her head.
Hearing Daphne’s words, Sonia’s anxiety faded.
Am I disappointed?
Yes, but not so much.
After all, I’ve predicted it and I’m mentally prepared for it.
The answer Daphne gave was a confirmation of Sonia’s initial guess.
“What should we do now, Miss Reed? The identity of the person is obviously extraordinary given that
they are able to enter a large hotel and delete the surveillance footage,” Daphne asked while looking at
Sonia.
“I know exactly who did this,” Sonia piped up.
“Really?” Daphne asked in surprise.
“Yes.”
“That’s great. Now that you know the culprit, despite their complicated identity, everything will be simple
to discuss as long as you hand it over to President Fuller. That person will definitely obey his words.
They will also unquestionably hand the surveillance footage to him once President Fuller demands.”
Daphne gave a broad smile.
Sonia, on the other hand, remained expressionless.
When Daphne saw this, her cheerful mood abruptly froze. “What is the problem, Miss Reed? You don’t
seem to be in a good mood.”
“How can I be? Do you have any idea who did this?”
Daphne shook her head upon hearing this. She would not have asked if she knew.
“The culprit is Harry’s granddaughter.”
“Harry?”
“Yes.” Sonia nodded. “Harry is Toby’s mentor and his granddaughter is also Toby’s childhood
sweetheart. Do you think such a relationship makes me happy? ”
“How can this be? The culprit indeed has a strong backing!”
Daphne was not referring to their family background, but the relationship between the culprit and Toby.
“If this happens, then you can’t guarantee President Fuller to seek justice for you, right?” Daphne
asked as she looked at Sonia.
“Yeah. Toby just Facetimed me, but I didn’t respond because I was afraid to hear that he wanted to
settle this matter quickly and quietly. I’m still not sure who weighs more in his heart. Is it me or the
Lores?” Sonia explained.
“There is no way to quantify this. One is his teacher; the other is his lover. If President Fuller chooses
you over Harry, outsiders will regard him as an ungrateful disciple; if he chooses Harry, he will be
caught in the middle, complicating things even more.” Daphne sighed.
Her analysis was irrefutable. Toby had indeed become entangled in the crossfire.
“Let’s see if President Fuller can come up with a better solution,” Daphne comforted.
Still, Sonia remained deafeningly silent.
“Ugh, what is going on? Had the culprit been just a random rich girl who has nothing to do with
President Fuller, things would have been so much easier. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.” Daphne
pushed her glasses up her nose bridge.
“I know, right?” Sonia laughed.
“Miss Reed, if I’m not mistaken, Harry’s granddaughter should be a generation younger than President
Fuller. On the other hand, President Fuller is Harry’s student, which means Harry’s granddaughter is
President Fuller’s niece. A niece falling for her uncle is outrageous!” Daphne exclaimed.
“They are not related by blood anyway,” Sonia said as she averted her gaze.
“Even if they are not blood-related, there exists seniority. All in all, Miss Lore is most likely not a good
person,” Daphne concluded.
Not responding, Sonia had trailed after the voice in her thoughts.
A good person?
No good person will do such a thing.
It’s obvious that Miss Lore is the same species as Tina and Anya.
I’m sure there will be more emerging in the future, even if this problem is to be resolved now.
Sonia took the coffee and sipped it, only to worsen her headache.
“Miss Reed,” Daphne called.
“What’s the matter?” Sonia looked at her.
“Miss Reed, we don’t know how President Fuller will resolve this matter now. Moreover, the footage at
the hotel has also been destroyed, so there’s no way for the footage to clarify the gossip on the
Internet. How about we meet President Lane personally and let him come forward to clarify? Perhaps
that could be effective,” suggested Daphne.
“No. No one knows who the man in the photo is, so I don’t want to drag Charles into this. I’ll just have
to deal with this on my own.” Sonia sighed, shaking her head.
“But…”
The ringing of Sonia’s phone cut Daphne off in the middle of her speech.
Sonia lowered her gaze and expected the caller to be Toby, but it was Zane.
For the last two months, Zane had been traveling to the mountains and countryside to research the
dweller’s conditions in various locations for his political exam; now, he must review the written portion
of the exam.
For this reason, Sonia had not kept in touch with Zane in a while. Frankly, she had almost completely
forgotten about his existence.
Who knew he would call at this exact moment?
“Wait a minute,” Sonia told Daphne before swiping the screen and answering the call, “Hello?”
