The Harper Family was definitely one of Seafield's wealthiest families and had a reputation in the area
because of its links to the transportation industry.
At least, they were more influential than the Lore Family.
Also, the Young Master of the Harper Family was also the second grandson who constantly made
headlines for his ignorance and incompetence.
Some of his actions were even against the law.
Whenever there was anything that involved the young master's breach of the law, the Harper Family
would intervene and have a word with the media outlets to prevent them from releasing such news.
Due to the influence of the Harper Family, most media outlets naturally agreed to their request and
would instead actively suppress the news.
Squirrel Media, on the other hand, was different; it would proceed to report the news with no
consequences whatsoever.
For that reason, if Squirrel was unafraid of the Harper Family, would they be frightened of the Lore
Family, which shared a similar standing?
Not to mention, the person in question was the family's young lady with no influence of her own.
Who would believe such news?
Mitch was on the ground in tears, but he was once again stunned after hearing Sonia's words.
He never expected that Sonia was aware of his situation to a tee.
As a result, his earlier words had no credibility and merely sounded ridiculous.
However, it did not mean that Nicholas would throw in the towel.
Now that Toby had a firm hold on him, he knew that it was impossible to make a comeback and
intended to admit defeat.
Yet, who would have expected that he would run into Sonia at such a place?
Women would always be more soft-hearted than their male counterparts. As long as I have a chat with
Sonia, maybe I might have a way out.
So, no matter what, he did not want to lose this opportunity.
As he thought about it, Mitch cheered for himself before he spoke, "Miss Reed, I know that you'd find it
difficult to understand how I was convinced by the young lady of the Lore Family to do what I did. I had
no choice, though. The Lore Family and President Fuller have an extremely close relationship, which
was why I didn't dare to ignore Miss Lore's words. If you don't believe me, Miss Reed, you can ask
President Fuller about his relationship with the Lore Family."
He couldn't care less; he had to give it his all.
Sonia raised her hand. "I don't have to ask. I'm aware that Toby and the Lore Family have a
relationship akin to a master and pupil. Miss Lore's young enough to even be considered Toby's niece."
"Yes, that's right. Miss Lore can be considered as Toby's niece, which was why she threatened me. If I
didn't dare to do it and offended President Fuller. As a result, I—"
"But don't you forget!" Sonia squatted and lowered her head to look at Mitch with a cold gaze. Then, as
she cut him off mercilessly, she continued, "Lynette Lore may be Toby's niece, but I'm Toby's lover. So
if you dare not go against Lynette for fear of offending Toby, yet you're brave enough to help her attack
his girlfriend? Don't tell me you're not worried about offending Toby?"
Mitch's expression changed as he broke out in cold sweat.
Officer Chase and two policemen, who were all present at the scene, looked at him with contempt.
"I-I… I never thought that f-far…" It took Mitch ages before he could stammer a reply with trembling
lips.
He was telling the truth; he had indeed never thought far.
Back when Lynette gave him a call and used her grandfather's connection to Toby to plead with Mitch
to help her with something, she even said that Mitch did not need to fear offending Toby. Her
grandfather was Toby's master, so she definitely could protect Mitch from the consequences. As long
as Mitch agreed, she would then pay him five million.
The idea of receiving five million greatly tempted Mitch, and since he had someone to back him up, it
was a done deal.
After that, he ignored the fact that Sonia was Toby's girlfriend. He utterly forgot that messing with her
was akin to offending Toby.
As Sonia observed Mitch's astonishment, she rose to her feet. "Did you forget that I'm someone
important in Toby's heart? My position is about the same as his master's. That must be the reason why
you did what you did. Still, it's such a pity that you had the wrong idea. Compared to Mr. Lore, Toby
cares more for me. You see, Toby had personally delivered you here, but no one from the Lore Family,
especially Lynette, came to save you from this mess. She didn't even call you at all, which shows that
she has completely given up on you. Do you know why? It's because Toby is about to go against the
Lore Family. So, the Lore Family can't afford to save you."
Mitch's eyes widened. "President Fuller wants to go against the Lore Family?"
"That's right. I believe you'll see the news reports that Toby has taken action on the Lore Family in due
course." There was a smile on Sonia's face as she said those words gently.
When he saw her smiling like that, he felt that he was seeing the devil. Her words that Toby wanted to
go against the Lore Family kept ringing in his head.
If Toby wanted to attack the Lore Family, it meant that they had stepped on his bottom line and angered
the man himself.
That was why he refused to let even his master's family off the hook.
In short, forget about Mitch; the entire Lore Family was in a precarious situation now.
At this moment, Mitch panicked and was completely terrified. His cries became even louder as he
pleaded, "Miss Reed?"
He continued shrilly, "I know I'm in the wrong, Miss Reed. As I have explained, it's because that
woman, Lynette, fancies President Fuller and is jealous of you. So she asked me to secretly arrange
for a reporter to be hot on your trail and take pictures that she could use to threaten you. We wanted to
use it to create rumors and force you and President Fuller to break up. By doing so, Lynette would
have a shot at being with him.''
He hiccuped as he kept coming up with excuses for himself, "She even said that her grandfather is
President Fuller's master and someone he deeply respects. If there's any problem, everything can be
settled once her grandfather speaks to President Fuller. The five million that she gave me was my
reward. Miss Reed, I know that I have screwed up and only cared for money. Since I have explained
everything to you, including Lynette's calls, I can surrender the audio recording to you. Just let me go, I
plead with you, Miss Reed. I—"
"Since she is the one who approached you, you should beg for mercy from her." A deep male voice
answered even before Sonia could say anything. That voice came from someone from the crowd.
Then, everyone turned to look at the source of the voice.
Toby placed one hand in his slash pocket while gently swaying the other hand as he walked toward
Sonia and Mitch without expression.
The heels of his leather shoes made a clear sound, with each step leaving a soothing aftersound.
Unfortunately, to Mitch, it was not melodious because such a sound meant that Hades was slowly but
surely approaching him. Toby's footsteps pounded on Mitch's heart and left the man with an uneasy
feeling.
"P-President F-Fuller…" Mitch raised his head and looked at Toby, approaching with wide eyes. He
was even quivering and couldn't form a proper sentence.
Officer Chase even made way by offering his spot to Toby.
Finally, Toby stopped next to Sonia, who then asked him, "Why are you here?"
"I noticed that you haven't returned after so long and decided to see what's up. But, of course, I never
expected to hear those words just now," he replied. Then, he lowered his eyes to look at Mitch, who
resembled a defenseless ant, and continued, "I heard what you and my girlfriend said just now,
though."
Toby hugged Sonia's waist and explained, "What my lover said is correct. She has a higher position
than my master in my heart. It's because she'll be the one with me for the rest of my life, whereas my
master won't. Yes, I respect my master, but if my master has gone overboard and is not as virtuous as I
remembered, then I can just be as disrespectful to him. Since I can throw my master to the lion's den,
what makes you think my master's granddaughter would be worthy enough for me to spare?"
Mitch gaped at him and couldn't speak. It was because Toby's words were the final words announcing
a tragic ending for him. That's true, though. If he can choose to sacrifice his master, why would he care
about his master's granddaughter?
