Go to Ibira
Resentment filled Toby as his back slammed against the couch. Of course, he wasn’t upset with Sonia
but with the person who rang the doorbell when it was already this late at night.
Sonia, on the other hand, turned a blind eye to the man’s displeasure and hurriedly moved away from
the couch. “Did you hear the doorbell just now?” she asked while fixing her disheveled hair and clothes.
Toby, too, was fixing his clothes at this point. Compared to her fluster, he couldn’t be any more
composed.
Not even an unexpected visitor could make him lose his composure.
It wasn’t until he patted his sleeves and crossed his legs that he answered, “I heard it. It’s just a visitor.
Why are you so panicked?”
Then, as he watched the woman, who stood up to fix her pants, he smirked and continued, “Besides,
this is our home. As owners, we’re panicking when there’s a visitor. Those oblivious might think we’re
doing something bad in someone else’s place.”
His words rendered Sonia stupefied, and she blinked dumbfoundedly.
Yeah, this is my place. Whatever Toby and I do here is justifiable, so why would I panic so badly just
because there’s someone at the door?! Those oblivious might actually think we’ve come to someone
else’s place to do bad things.
At that, Sonia slapped her forehead, ridiculed by her reaction. “I’ve reacted too dramatically, but hey,
this is a reflex. After all, anyone would react like this when someone suddenly comes while they’re
making out. No one wants anyone else to know they’re doing it, no?”
Toby chuckled in response.
“Alright, I’ll go and get the door.” Sonia tucked her hair behind her ear while walking toward the
entryway.
“Together,” said Toby as he held her hand.
He’d like to see just who the hell decided to ruin his night by coming at this time.
I swear you better have serious business or… He narrowed his malicious eyes.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the door, the visitor couldn’t help shuddering and rubbing his arms,
feeling inexplicably cold.
Just then, the door opened, and Sonia and Toby appeared.
“Good evening, President Fuller, Miss Reed,” greeted the visitor as he hurriedly put his arms down and
stood straight when he saw the two.
“Tom?” Sonia was pretty surprised when she learned who was behind the door.
Toby, on the other hand, frowned. “What are you doing here?”
“I—” Tom had just answered when he saw his boss’ sub-zero countenance. “This better be serious, or
you can pack up and head to Ibira to work tomorrow.”
“What?!” Tom couldn’t believe his ears, so dumbstruck that his glasses slipped to the tip of his nose.
What’s going on? What the heck?! What have I done? Why am I suddenly assigned to the Ibira
expedition?
Tom looking completely stupefied and questioning all existence made Sonia purse her lips and burst
into a snigger.
It was her snigger, too, that allowed Tom to come to himself. At that, he looked despondently at his
boss, asking, “What have I done wrong, President? Why have you suddenly assigned me to the Ibira
expedition?”
“Do you even need a reason for it? Drop your complaints and just do as you’re told.”
“But…”
“Alright, Toby, cut it out.” Sonia held Toby’ arm and giggled. “Don’t freak Tom out.”
She believed she knew why he would suddenly send Tom to Ibira. He must be mad at the poor
assistant for suddenly interrupting him when they were just about to make out. Thus, he decided to get
even with Tom, sending the poor guy to Ibira.
Oh, she knew full well just how petty this man could get. Amused, Sonia shook her head with a
chuckle.
Meanwhile, Tom blinked with stupefaction. “Freak me out? What do you mean, Miss Reed? Are you
guys playing some sort of game? Truth or dare? Is President Fuller doing this to me in a fit of anger
because he lost?”
The assistant might as well just blatantly said his boss was a sore loser who would take his anger out
on the innocent. But, of course, Toby got the implication, and he turned grim.
Looks like I can really chuck this assistant away. It’s time I send him all the way to Ibira to prove his
worth.
Sonia didn’t expect Tom to be this oblivious either or have such a wild imagination at that. To think he’d
assume they were playing truth or dare.
Then again, she had to admit that he was pretty close to the right answer.
Though they weren’t playing truth or dare, and Toby didn’t lose either, what they were playing had
indeed upset Toby and caused him to lash out at Tom.
“Fly straight to Ibira tomorrow morning at eight. You don’t have to pay for the ticket. It’s on the
company,” ordered Toby with a wave of a hand.
“C’mon, President, you can’t do this!” Tom grew apprehensive. “You can’t take it out on me just
because you lost a game. I’m innocent!”
Sonia, on the other hand, tried so hard to hold her laughter back that her shoulders were shaking. Ha,
looks like the poor guy is convinced Toby wants to transfer him away because Toby lost a game.
However, neither she nor Toby intended to clarify to him. After all, how could someone tell anyone else
what they were doing so blatantly? So a misunderstanding it was then.
“Alright, Tom, relax. Toby is just messing with you. He’s not really transferring you over to Ibira.” Sonia
reassured him with a smile, seeing how uneasy he was.
“Really, Miss Reed?” Tom’s eyes lit up immediately. “President Fuller really won’t transfer me to Ibira?!”
“Says who?” Toby bore into Tom icily, rendering the poor assistant stupefied once again.
Sonia rolled her eyes at that and slapped Toby’ arm in exasperation. “Alright, c’mon, cut it out. Stop
scaring Tom. Where are you going to find another assistant that knows you so well on such short notice
if you really send Tom to Ibira?”
Exactly! Tom nodded his head like a bobblehead.
Meanwhile, Toby pursed his lips as Sonia continued, “Besides, Tom didn’t do it on purpose.”
“He disrupted our moment.” Toby pointed to his assistant with a frown.
At that, Sonia shook her head helplessly. “So? It’s just a little later. If it makes you feel better, we’ll
continue after Tom leaves.”
The next second, the coldness surrounding Toby disappeared instantly, replaced with joy and elation.
Even an idiot could tell he was beside himself with joy right then.
As the two whispered while leaning close to each other, Tom couldn’t tell what the two had talked
about. But judging from how happy his boss was after hearing Sonia’s words, he couldn’t help having
admiration for her.
Man, you’ve got to hand it to Miss Reed. She can really turn an active grenade known as President
Fuller into a sweet man with just a few words. Sure enough, everything has its vanquisher. If these two
aren’t perfect examples, then I don’t know what else is.
“So? Still upset?” Sonia nudged Toby, oblivious to Tom’s sassing about her and Toby in his mind.
At that, Toby cleared his throat and said, “Not anymore.”
“In that case, don’t scare Tom anymore. What are you going to do if he’s terrified when he’s so
committed to seeing to your affairs?” cajoled Sonia as she looked at Tom.
“You’re the best, Miss Reed.” Tom felt utterly grateful for her.
At that, Sonia smiled and said, “You’re too kind, Tom. Don’t worry. Your boss won’t send you to Ibira
anymore.”
“Is that true, President?” Tom looked expectantly at Toby, hoping to get an answer from him.
