"You look fine." Sonia shook her head. "If I hadn't taken a good look at you, I wouldn't have noticed you gained weight, so you don't have to worry about that."

Happiness filled Toby's eyes as he asked, "Would you be repulsed by me if I turned ugly?"

"That's impossible." She denied. "I'm not that kind of person. Besides, you're perfectly fine, but I did hear that middle-aged men tend to gain weight easily. They'd become bald and grow a gut, so will you —"

"No way!" As if knowing what she wanted to ask, he shook his head to show that he would not grow out of shape. Moreover, even he could not stand having a bald head and a big belly. Just the thought of it felt awful to him.

Seeing the man before her being so revolted by the image she described, Sonia burst out laughing. "If that's true, you'd better take care of your health, so you won't turn into your worst nightmare."

"Of course, I will." Toby raised his chin and promised. He would never allow himself to become like that.

"Alright. Enough about that. Hurry up and finish your meal." She rose to her feet and headed for the bathroom.

When she came out, he was almost done with his meal, so she went over and gathered the plates and utensils before washing them in the kitchen.

At that moment, Tim was doing his rounds and entered their room. Then, he proceeded with his daily checkup on Toby.

After that was completed, he suddenly thought of something and looked at Sonia, who came out of the kitchen and informed, "This morning, Titus' wife came to the hospital again."

"Did she ask for help in saving him again?" Toby squinted his eyes.

Tim confirmed their guesses. "She's the last person who wants Titus dead, so she would never give up any chance at saving him. I think she'll be visiting hospitals frequently, not just here but others as well."

"It doesn't matter where she goes. All that matters is that Titus can't be saved." Sonia approached them expressionlessly.

Toby's eyes twinkled for a moment. "Are you sure Titus' condition is incurable?"

Tim adjusted his glasses while explaining, "Yes, I'm positive. That old fellow's health won't allow him to hang on for long. Forget about finding a suitable kidney donor because even if there was one, he won't be able to make it through surgery unless a miracle happens. If miracles happen so easily, they wouldn't be called miracles."

Therefore, Titus was destined to be a dead man.

"I understand. So, we won't have to be bothered with the Grays anymore," Toby told Tim, who shrugged his shoulders without any comments.

Afterward, he stayed for a while before getting called away by a nurse, saying that he had a consultation to attend to.

Once he was gone, Sonia sat beside Toby's bed. "How is Triforce Enterprise doing?"

"Many of Triforce's properties have been suspended. The higher-ups have discovered some evidence related to the collapsed mine, so they ordered for most of Triforce's properties to be suspended, and there is only a small portion running. However, the profits earned by that portion aren't enough to sustain the entire Triforce Enterprise. The shareholders have realized the risk and are starting to sell their shares, ready to cash them out. Meanwhile, Titus is bedridden and can't do anything about it."

"Selling their shares?" She taunted, "I bet no one is willing to buy those, right?"

He nodded. "You're right. The news of Triforce being under investigation has spread throughout the business world, so everyone knows Triforce is in trouble. Therefore, no one will be inclined to buy the shares because if the company goes bankrupt, those shares would be useless, and no one is willing to take that risk. That's why there are still no buyers when the shareholders are selling their shares at such a low price."

"How much are they selling for?" she suddenly asked.

With narrowed eyes, he asked, "You interested?"

Before she could answer, he added, "It's fine if you want to buy them. Triforce Enterprise should've been yours, so if you want to, I'll ask the higher-ups to be more benevolent and leave some clean properties so that Triforce won't go completely bankrupt. That way, you can merge them with Paradigm Co.."

However, Sonia did not pay attention to what he said later because she was curious about the first part of his words. She looked at him and asked, "Why did you say Triforce Enterprise was supposed to be mine?"

A dark glint flashed across Toby's eyes but disappeared immediately as he explained, "Since Titus had harmed the Reed Family, he should make it up to you by giving you Triforce Enterprise. That's why I said it should be yours."

She nodded. "I see. I'll think about it. Come to think of it, I am interested in some of the properties under Triforce."

"What are they? Tell me, and I'll help you analyze whether they're compatible with Paradigm Co.," he suggested.

She agreed, and the two began discussing dividing Triforce Enterprise.

Though the company was still being investigated and its outcome had not been determined, these two were already thinking about dividing its properties. If Titus had been present, he would have been angered to death.

"The properties you're interested in aren't bad. Since you want them, I'll have Tom come up with a list of all the shares owned by each shareholder of Triforce Enterprise. Then, you can contact them according to the list. That way, you wouldn't have to worry about them raising the price, and you have leverage over them to buy their shares with prices lower than the lowest price in the market." Toby nodded slightly.

Sonia smiled. "Tom's got his work cut out for him."

"He's paid to do that."

"Although that's true, he's the one running errands for us, so he does have a lot on his hands." While speaking, she looked at the clock. Seeing that it was almost time, she gave Toby his medications. "Alright. It's time to take your meds."

Without any dawdling, he took the medications and popped them into his mouth before swallowing them with water.

The following morning, Tom brought over the list of shares Sonia needed. That was not the only data he prepared, for information on each shareholder, especially their personalities and leverages no one knew about, was also detailed.

With this knowledge in hand, she could easily win over the shareholders of Triforce Enterprise and buy their shares at the lowest price possible.

Although using others' leverage to reach her goal was shady, this was the business industry, after all. It could very well be compared to a battlefield, so employing unconventional means to get what one wanted was justifiable.

That afternoon, Sonia visited a few shareholders she thought were the easiest to deal with and bought their shares. Since she did everything in secret, Titus and his gang had no idea about this. Soon, she became the second largest shareholder after him.

Once Titus was out of the picture, she could rely on Toby to use his connections with the higher-ups

and completely dissolve Triforce Enterprise, leaving only the properties she was interested in.

Having thought of that, she felt like she was on cloud nine.

Time flew by quickly, and it was already a week into the new year. All the employees gradually returned to work.

Similarly, Sonia returned to work at Paradigm Co..

A few moments after arriving at her office, she received a call from the reception counter. "Chairman Reed, a gentleman is looking for you."

"A gentleman?" She frowned in confusion. "Who is he? What's his name?"

Is it Zane? Wait, the receptionist knows Zane, so if it was him, the receptionist would've told me straight up. So, the person who came must be a stranger to the receptionist. Who could it be?
