Chapter 1276
"Shoot, she did that?!" Lynette's plan stumped Sonia.
"Who allowed the ones guarding the Lores to let people in?!" Toby hit the roof.
Knowing they were in the wrong, Tom answered, "You just said not to let them out, President. But you didn't say
other people couldn't go in. So, Lynette used the loophole to get away."
So, it's my fault?! Toby turned grimmer by the second, making Sonia snigger.
"Is Mr. Lore still inside?" Toby asked while rubbing his temples.
"He is." Tom nodded. "Only one server went in, so only one could leave. Since Lynette ran away, Mr. Lore had to
stay."
"Right," Toby replied. "From now on, I don't want anyone else going in or out until I get there. Get the food and
drinks ready for Mr. Lore, and also have someone check on him every ten minutes. I want him safe and sound."
"Yes, sir." Tom nodded in acknowledgment.
He knew well that Toby didn't really mean 'safe and sound' but rather that Mr. Lore wasn't using his life to threaten
anyone.
"Also, find another two people to guard the door and send the ones originally keeping watch back to security school
to work on their vision. What use do I have for them when they can't even tell the wrong person left the door?!"
Toby ordered through gnashed teeth.
Tom, too, agreed with Toby. It was indeed time to send them back to security school when they couldn't even tell
Lynette had passed by them.
"Understood. I'll get to it right away, but Lynette…"
"She'll definitely come to the banquet. Have someone find her," Toby ordered.
"Yes, sir."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"One more thing." Toby narrowed his eyes.
Tom listened quietly as Toby gave his order. "Tina went to Kosovo?!" Tom exclaimed in shock.
"It's a fact yet to be verified. So, these are your next tasks," said Toby plainly.
"Understood, sir." Toby turned solemn. "I'll send people over right away, and Westsanshire, too."
Toby ended the call with a hum, then put the phone down and reached for the wine. However, Sonia placed her
hand over the glass.
"What is it?" The man looked at her with bafflement.
"Don't drink anymore," said Sonia as she pushed the glass further. "You've already had a lot. You're going to get
drunk if you keep at it. Have some of this."
She poured half of her juice out and handed it to him, who smiled as he looked at the juice in the wine glass.
"Alright, no more wine. You're the boss. I'll have this."
"Props to you." With that, she ate a piece of fruit using the expensive-looking fork, then put it down and stood up
after she was done.
"Where are you going?" Toby looked up at her.
"The washroom. I've had too much juice," answered Sonia as she grabbed her bag.
"I'll go with you," Toby suggested as he put the glass down.
"You want to go into the women's bathroom with me?" She rolled her eyes at him.
"I'll wait outside," announced Toby as he stood up.
"No need." Sonia found it ridiculous. "I'm not a child that needs attending to. Besides, there are so many people
here. It wouldn't be good if someone caught you waiting outside the women's washroom. Alright, just wait for me
here. I'll be back in a sec."
With that, she made her way to the washroom.
Meanwhile, Toby's gaze turned enigmatic as he watched her saunter away, and he picked up the glass of juice to
take another sip.
At the washroom, Sonia reapplied her lipstick at the bathroom vanity after doing her business.
After she had drunk so much juice, her lipstick had long faded.
What was more, she had on heavy makeup that night, so her entire look would look off when her lipstick faded.
Hence, she would need to reapply to complete her entire look.
When she was done, she turned her head from side to side to check everything was okay before putting the lipstick
into her bag and leaving the washroom happily.
Just as she exited the washroom, a female server approached her direction, and her beauty stunned Sonia.
She wasn't the bombshell type. Instead, she was adorable. She had a round face, delicate facial features, and
adorably chubby cheeks. Even adorable was an understatement.
Plus, she wasn't tall, probably only around five feet. And she had on a bun. Coupled with her doll-like face, she was
the epitome of a sweet princess.
If she puts on some frilly princess-style dress or some preppy clothes, she'll definitely look the part! Sonia mused.
No one wouldn't say no to anything adorable, and the same went for her too.
If it wasn't for the fact that it was rude, she'd really want to rub the female server's face. Her face must feel good
to knead, she mused with regret while sizing the approaching server.
Then, the second she walked past the server, the latter suddenly stopped and turned her head to Sonia. "You must
be Sonia Reed."
The server not only looked like a doll but even sounded like one.
Of course, that was beside the point. The point was this server knew her!
Sonia reflexively stopped as a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and she turned to look at the server standing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnext to her. "Hi, do you know me?"
She indirectly acknowledged she was indeed Sonia.
The female server had turned entirely around at this point and stared at Sonia face-on with nothing but malice and
jealousy.
Her gaze shocked Sonia, and it baffled her that a stranger would have such intense animosity toward her. But she
very quickly realized something when she looked at her unfitted uniform.
Hadn't Tom said over the phone that Lynette knocked a server out cold and ran away wearing their uniform? Also,
Lynette had a doll-like face!
The slightly large uniform and doll-like face that fitted Lynette's description appeared on this server, so it was clear
now who the person standing in front of her was.
"Lynette!" Sonia blurted out.
The female server smirked and crossed her arms in front of her chest. "So, you know me too, huh?"
She admitted she was indeed Lynette.
Sonia pursed her lips. "Well, I've heard of you, but I wouldn't say I know you." She didn't think she would be so lucky
as to bump into Lynette right outside of the washroom.
No, perhaps it wasn't that she was lucky, but that Lynette might have come specifically for her.
After all, she never saw a sliver of surprise in Lynette's eyes.
So, it was apparent that the young lady had come for her.
On the other hand, Lynette's smile froze after she heard Sonia's answer, displeased.
What do you mean 'I've heard of you, but I wouldn't say I know you.'?!
To her, they were love rivals, and to fight Sonia, she spent tons of time and money collecting various information on
Sonia. It could be said that she knew Sonia through and through.
Shouldn't that be the case for her too?!
