Chapter 918 He Came With the Wind

Mary stood still and waved Toby goodbye as she watched him drive away, only going back inside after

the car could no longer be seen.

Inside the car, Toby had been glancing toward the rear view mirror until the old manor was completely

out of his sight before rolling the window up. Following that, he grabbed his phone, searched for

Sonia’s contact, and called her.

Meanwhile, Sonia had been waiting for Toby to show up at Paradigm Co.

However, he was still nowhere to be found when there was only half an hour left until seven, and it got

her worrying if he was only still talking to Old Mrs. Fuller or if something had happened on his way

there.

Just as she was about to call and check on him after a few seconds of hesitation, her phone, which she

had left on her desk, suddenly rang.

At that, she turned around to find it was Toby calling, leading her worries to fade away as she answered

it with a smile. “Hello?”

“Sorry for keeping you waiting. My chat with Grandma went on longer than expected,” he apologized

immediately.

“Don’t worry about it,” she said, shaking her head. “Grandma’s more important. Besides, there’s still

time. Have you finished chatting with her?”

“Yeah.” Toby nodded. “I’ve just left her place. I’ll reach in about ten to twenty minutes.”

“Ten to twenty?” Sonia chuckled with a quirked brow, amused. “You’re joking. The old manor is up on

the hill, miles away from the city. You’ve just left, and it’d take at least half an hour to get here by car.

No way will you be able to get here less than that. If you think it’ll be too late by the time you get here, I

can tell Mrs. Lane we’ll be late. Don’t speed just because you want to get here in time. It’s perilous.”

He wouldn’t be able to reach in less than twenty minutes even if he sped, but he would still be able to

show up sooner.

Hence, she worried he would actually do it. What if he got into an accident?

Speeding was one of the leading causes of car accidents!

Toby smiled and chuckled under his breath upon hearing her worry and disapproval. “Relax. I won’t

speed. I have a plan. I mean it when I said I’ll be there in ten to twenty minutes. You wanna bet?”

“What do you have in mind?” Sonia couldn’t think of any other way he could get here so quickly.

However, Toby wouldn’t say anything as he continued acting all mysterious. “You’ll find out soon.

Alright, I’m hanging up now. See you in a few.”

At that, he ended the call.

And just like that, her words got stuck in her throat. H*ll, she wasn’t done talking!

She looked at her phone, which now displayed the homescreen, and shook her head, chuckling.

“Alright, fine. Let’s see if you’ll actually show up in twenty minutes.”

It better not be just big talk, or the person being laughed at will be you.

After mumbling, she put her phone down and headed to the washroom.

Meanwhile, after Toby parked his car on a private lane on Tolher Hill, he got out and looked up into the

sky.

About a minute later, the sound of a propeller buzzing grew louder, and a lavish, silver-white helicopter

appeared in the sky the next second, coming closer and closer to Toby, ultimately hovering about thirty

feet above his head.

After he gave a signal to the helicopter, the hatch opened, and a rope ladder was chucked out of it.

Following that, a man in a bodyguard uniform poked his head out and nodded toward Toby before

climbing down the rope ladder.

Very quickly, the bodyguard jumped off the rope ladder and saluted Toby. “President.”

Toby dipped his head in response and chucked his car key to the bodyguard. “Take it back to Fuller

Group.”

“Yes, sir,” said the bodyguard as he caught the key.

At that, Toby walked past the bodyguard and climbed up the rope ladder, leaving the bodyguard to his

task.

He stopped when he got to the middle of the rope ladder, and with that, the helicopter elevated.

It wasn’t until it rose to a certain height that someone in the helicopter began pulling the rope ladder in,

bringing Toby inside.

Meanwhile, Sonia still had no clue that a certain someone was already on his way to Paradigm Co. in a

helicopter.

After returning to her desk, she grabbed her phone and began counting down for Toby.

Though she was certain he wouldn’t show up in less than twenty minutes, she still wanted to see if he

could do it.

Hey, what if there’s a miracle? She thought while smiling.

Time ticked by, and when it came to the fourteenth minute, her phone suddenly vibrated.

Startled, she nearly dropped it.

Fortunately, she responded in time and caught it. With that, she heaved a sigh of relief and mumbled,

vexed and amused with herself. “Oh my. You just have to send a message so suddenly.”

Though complaining, her eyes were all smiles as she opened the Messenger app.

Fifteen minutes had passed since he last called. Surely the sudden text was to apologize for his big talk

and that he couldn’t make it in time.

Ha, why boast when you know you will eventually have to admit you’re wrong? She thought as she

clicked into their chat interface.

Lo and behold, there were only four words: Come to the rooftop.

Rooftop? His request stumped her for a split second.

Rooftop? Why does he want me to go to the rooftop? To jump?

At that, she shook her head, chucking the ridiculous inchoate thought out the window, before mulling

over his purpose for asking her to go up there.

Surely it isn’t to jump or to view the rooftop. There’s nothing up there apart from a helicopter landing

pad. Only a lunatic would view—wait. Landing pad?

An idea struck her, and she widened her eyes with incredulity as she jumped out of her seat.

“No, he can’t possibly be coming in a chopper, can he?”

But he did say he would reach in ten to twenty minutes, and only an aircraft could do that.

Besides, this guy had all sorts of private aircraft, yachts, and whatnot. He just had to give the order, and

someone would fly the helicopter to him, no?

Since he wanted her to go up to the rooftop now, no doubt it was a helicopter.

Sonia chuckled at that.

She had really underestimated him, thinking it was impossible for him to reach in twenty minutes.

But, in reality? He absolutely could.

Sonia wasted no more time and jogged upstairs.

Right as she opened the heavy metal door to the rooftop, she heard the sound of an approaching

propeller.

With that, she looked up to find a helicopter slowing down in her direction, bringing along a gust of

wind. It caused her hair to fly in every direction and forced her to squint.

She hurriedly pressed her hair down while staring at the helicopter with squinted eyes.

Soon, it came and hovered above the landing pad for a moment before slowly descending, clearly

wanting to park there.

Meanwhile, Sonia’s gaze continued to follow the helicopter, lowering her eyes as it descended.

The rotor finally stopped after it parked, and the wind had also disappeared along with it.

When she finally no longer had to squint and press her hair down, she went up to the helicopter.

Right as she got to the hatch, it opened, and there Toby was, in his full glory. He was sitting inside with

his legs bent, and both hands were holding onto the hatch, smiling at her. “Well? I didn’t miss the

twenty-minute mark, did I?”

“No,” said Sonia as she shook her head, smiling. “You’re very much on time. Precisely twenty minutes.

You sure didn’t let me down, Mr. Fuller.”
