Madam Escaped Again Sir

Chapter 1049

Tom raised his head slightly and secretly cast a glance at Toby. He was overjoyed when he saw Harry's expression as if he had just stepped on poop.

Indeed, he was relieved to see that Toby's words had defeated Harry as Tom never liked this old man to begin with.

Harry, who was Toby’s teacher, always treated assistants like him rudely by exerting his seniority over them.

For instance, Harry yelled at Toby's assistants when Toby was not around and ordered them to serve him as if they were his own people; his granddaughter did the very same.

Since Harry was Toby's senior, Tom was unable to tell Toby about many things as he had to keep the issues hidden out of respect.

I'm afraid President Fuller is still unaware that his teacher is far from being so kind and gentle when he's around others.Harry is, in reality, a snobbish old man who despises the poor and kisses the wealthy's *ss.

Toby was unaware of Tom's thoughts. As he observed Harry's stunned and speechless expression, his attitude softened.

After all, Harry was still his respected teacher.

"I'm sorry, Harry. I went overboard earlier. Allow me to apologize to you. Please forgive my behavior," Toby said as he leaned over and poured Harry a cup of tea before serving it to him.

Harry's dark complexion improved when he saw the tea that his student had poured for him. He sipped the tea as an indication that he had accepted Toby's apology.

However, his dislike for Sonia had progressed from displeasure to mere disgust.

He claimed that Toby was siding with Sonia and refuting him because of her; if this continued, he would end his relationship with Toby himself.

No, I can't let Sonia be with Toby because it will eventually hurt him.

After some thought, Harry set the teacup down and frowned. "Toby, since you said that the Fullers don't need any arranged marriages and that you don't care about your wife's background, then at this point, I don't have much to say." Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Toby sipped his tea and was about to thank Harry for his patience when he heard Harry continue, "You can choose to not care about her family background or capabilities, but what about her attitude and etiquettes?"

"What exactly do you mean?" Toby paused for a moment while holding the teacup, then raised his eyes and stared at the old man sitting across from him.

Harry chuckled. "It's simple. This girl is incapable and she is completely unworthy of you. I won't comment on her family's ability, but I'm sure her well-being is not decent."

Toby was wearing a frosty expression as he replied, "You're going too far, don't you think? You haven't even met her, so how can you disrespect her as a person like that?"

President Fuller is right. Tom nodded in agreement, mocking Harry in his heart.

Neither President Fuller nor Old Mrs.

Fuller thought Miss Reed is a bad person. It's absurd enough that you, an old man, are pointing the finger here.

Harry could see that Toby was unhappy once again as a result of his own words. He felt downcast for a while and was even more convinced that this was all Sonia's fault.

In the past, Toby had always obeyed his words and never dared to oppose them. Now, he disagreed with almost everything he said.

Sonia is clearly to blame!

Harry inhaled deeply and temporarily suppressed his disgust for the woman. "I haven't seen her, but I've always heard of her. I heard you were going to marry her when I was abroad and I disagreed at the time. However, you insisted. Tell me, what happened in the end? It didn't go well, did it?" he asked solemnly, looking at Toby.

Silent, Toby lowered his eyelids, leaving everyone wondering what he was thinking.

Harry, on the other hand, took Toby's silence as an agreement to his own words as he continued, "And then came the chaotic divorce, which I only knew you married in the first place because she forced you. I can see how cunning she is from the way she threatens the head of an upper-class family, but I didn't expect you to reconcile after only a few months of divorce."

Continuing with a sigh, "She must have done something for you two to reconcile, right? She was able to force you to marry her back then, so it's not impossible for her to force you to get back together now. Overall, this woman..."

"Harry," Toby interrupted his words by raising his head before looking at him with indifference.

Intimidated by his cold expression, the old man's face turned pale.

Toby... He actually has the audacity to look me in the eyes this way just to protect an indecent woman like her!

Harry was so enraged that his breathing became erratic. He quickly put down the teacup and patted his chest as if he was about to pass out from suffocation.

Toby's expression changed slightly as he noticed this before standing up abruptly. "Harry."

"Harry," Tom called out as he approached the old man and helped him up.

As much as Tom did not agree with Harry, he was Toby's mentor after all. Therefore, he could not possibly ignore the old man in need of help. It would make things difficult for President Fuller if Harry dies in his office.

Tom assisted Harry in getting up and allowing him to lean against the back of the couch. Harry's breathing became more rapid and his face became increasingly pale.

Not letting any seconds go to waste, Toby dashed forward, rummaging through Harry's pockets before pulling out a small medicine bottle, which revealed two white pills.

When Tom saw the pills, he forced open Harry's mouth without Toby’s instruction so that Toby could feed Harry the medication.

Tom hurriedly turned around after Toby placed the pills in Harry's mouth, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, and fed Harry water, which flushed the pills into his stomach.

Soon after the pills took effect, Harry's breathing gradually calmed and his pale face flushed. Evidently, his condition had improved and he was no longer on the verge of a heart attack.

Toby and Tom's tightened chests finally were able to catch a breath of relieving air.

Tom returned to his spot while Toby sat back down on the couch. Looking at his mentor, he inquired, "Harry, are you feeling better now? If there is any discomfort, I will request Tom to summon the doctor."

Though the old man had fully recovered at this point, he was still furious with Toby. Unimpressed by Toby's concern, he snorted coldly at him. "Save it. You have yet to piss me off to death."

"Harry, I don't think I'm pissing you off," Toby responded with a blank expression.

"Are you sure that you're not pissing me off? You bore a piercing stare at me just to defend Sonia! You—" Harry was trembling with rage.

"You're the one who said the wrong things in the first place. Of course, I'm upset with you," Tony argued as he raised his gaze.

The implication was that if Harry's words irritated Toby, Toby would adopt the same attitude and reciprocate it toward him. Who cared if he was his mentor?

Once again, Harry became enraged after learning the meaning of Toby's words.

He would not be in good health right now had he not taken the medication; he might just be out of breath again.
