Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 21

“Baby, don’t look at him. Look at me, all right?” Charles tried his best to draw Sonia’s gaze back from the window.

“I’m more handsome than Carl, okay? Or do you like virgins like him more?”

Having had her thoughts interrupted,

Sonia didn’t know if she should be angry or laugh, so she rolled her eyes at him. “When I was young, I thought you were narcissistic. Who knew you’d

grow up worse.”

“I’m just aware of how handsome am!” Charles chuckled. “Really, baby.

Don’t you want to marry me? The Ocean’s Heart is nothing. I will find the world’s most unique diamond ring to propose to you!”

Sonia and Charles grew up together, and they often dropped by each other’s houses, so they were extremely close. Sonia knew that Charles was just trying to cheer her up because he knew that she was upset.

She was indeed rather amused by his remarks, and she even remembered the things she had neglected.

Sonia opened her handbag and took out a ring from one of the compartments. Even in the dim lighting of the car, the diamond was still dazzling.

This was her wedding ring.

Sonia looked at the wedding ring in her hand, and everything that happened tonight flashed rapidly through her mind.

She recalled the scene of Toby kneeling down and proposing to Tina, almost as if he was spoiling her, and the scene where he protected Tina… Her calm heart began to make waves again.

Through the rearview mirror, Charles saw the ring, but he didn’t make a joke about it. “Baby, you know that some people look like humans, but they don’t deserve to be humans. If you meet again in the future, you have to take a detour” Okay.” It was only a few dozen seconds, but Sonia’s heart was already at peace.

She placed the wedding ring on the armrest compartment in the center and her tone was calm when she said “Sell this wedding ring for me too.

Donate the money to the people in the poor mountain areas.”

With that, Sonia leaned back in her chair and looked at the scenery flashing by outside the car window,

and her whole being calmed down.

After eight years, her one-sided love had finally come to an end, which made her feel relieved.

At the hotel, the banquet was still ongoing, and the guests were still bustling, as if nothing had happened earlier.

One after another, Toby greeted each company’s bosses and business partners. It took a long time before he had time to breathe, and exhaustion

was clear in his eyes.

As soon as he sat down to rest, Tina came over.

“Toby, are you okay?” Tina asked thoughtfully as she poured warm water for him before walking around to the back to massage his shoulders.

Her technique was right, but there was still a lingering irritation haunting Toby’s heart Toby pressed Tina’s hand, then said in a deep voice, “You’d been going around with your father greeting everyone tonight, so you must be quite tired. You should sit down and rest.”

“Okay.” Tina gave a small smile, then sat down beside the man.

She peeled an orange and handed it to Toby, but he didn’t take it and simply stared at her. “Tina, how did the car accident happen back then? Tell me

again.”

The man’s eyes were deep and sharp.

It was as if he had an insight into people’s hearts. When Tina met his gaze, her hands trembled, and she almost dropped the orange onto the ground.

“I was in a coma in the hospital for too long, so there are many things I don’t remember.” She forcefully steadied her mind and tried to recall it. “I don’t

remember exactly how the car accident happened. I only vaguely remember that I was hit.”

She continued, “Tonight, Miss Reed brought people over to create trouble.

Toby, you can’t possibly believe what Charles said about me staging the accident, right?”

Met with Toby’s silence, Tina grabbed his hand before she said in a flustered and aggrieved tone, “Toby, you must believe me. I’m not familiar with Miss

Reed, so why would I frame her? I won’t treat my life as a joke.”

Seeing that her eyes were red, Tony’s doubts disappeared, leaving only distress Tony took her hand and kissed it, then said, “Since you’ve recovered, the

matter with the car accident ends here.

It has left you traumatized, and I don’t want you to feel upset because of it anymore.”

“Okay.” Feeling relieved, Tina smiled faintly.

Tina peeled an orange again and handed it to the man while looking at his stem expression. “Tony, I know that Miss Reed had been married to you for

six years, and she had contributed quite a lot to the Fuller Family, so I’m very grateful to her. I’d like to invite Miss Reed to dinner some other day and prepare another present to thank her.”

“There’s no need for that.” Thinking about what happened half an hour ago, Toby’s gaze darkened, and his tone was a little cold. “Sonia was the only

person who could donate blood to you at the time. She used this to threaten me, which was why I married her. And the Ocean’s Heart, which she took

away tonight, is worth quite a huge sum.”

Seeing that the man was so loyal to her and always stood by her side, Tina felt utterly relieved.

She leaned over and wrapped her arms around the man’s waist, and a soothing smile appeared on her face. “Toby.

thank you for waiting for me. Now that I’ve recovered, I will have plenty of time to spend with you and Madam White.”

Since they were seated so closely together, Toby could smell the faint scent of roses on her body. Seemingly uncomfortable with the smell, he

frowned.

He remembered that Sonia also used perfume. He had smelled it several times, but his nose never felt uncomfortable.

“Tina, mind your actions.” Julia and Titus came over. Seeing how Tina was hugging Toby, Julia smiled, but she reprimanded her. “There are guests all

around. It’s not good for the guests to see this,” Tina blushed after being told off, so she quickly let go of Toby and sat back in her seat.

Unbothered, Titus said, “Toby and Sonia are already dating, so what do they have to be wary of? if it wasn’t for that Sonia gir Halfway through his angry talking.

Titus seemed to have realized something, so he stopped short and said to Toby, “I heard that you had dinner with the boss of Continental Co.

last week. Do you intend to buy it?”

“President Drew and I just had dinner and a casual chat,” Toby said. “Ryan is competitive, and he attaches importance to his company. He would

never let it be acquired no matter how bad things got.”

Titus nodded, “I heard that he was looking for people to invest these days, so he has obviously run into a wall.”

When the two of them talked about business matters, Titus did the talking, while Toby assumed his role as a junior and listened while occasionally

agreeing with him.

Seeing the waiter walking through the crowd with a glass of juice and sending it to another table, Toby remembered something and called the waiter over. “I want a pot of freshly squeezed mango juice.”

“No problem. Please wait a minute.”

When Tina saw Toby asking the waiter for mango juice, her face became stiff, but she figured she shouldn’t ask anything In no time, a jug of freshly squeezed mango juice was delivered.

Toby poured a cup and handed it to Tina, a faint smile on his lips. “I remember when we corresponded last time, you wrote that you loved eating

mangoes. Once, you went to your grandma’s house and ate 30 small mangoes in one go, seemingly unafraid of overeating.”

“They were just small mangoes. There wasn’t much flesh.” As Tina snake cha “I love to eat mangoes, and I also like to drink mango juice. Back in the days, Mom always made me mango juice.” Tina interrupted her father. She shot him a look to tell him not to say anything more Tina looked at the mango juice in her hand, then fiercely gritted her teeth and quickly finished the whole cup.

wasn’t much flesh.” As Tina spoke, she took the glass of mango juice from him and held it tightly, but she didn’t drink it immediately, and her face

seemed to have turned paler.

“What’s the matter?” Toby asked, “You love to eat mangoes, but you don’t like them as fruit juice?”

Titus didn’t understand what Toby was saying to Tina, but he knew that she was allergic to mangoes, and it was very severe. She couldn’t touch them at

all.

Titus hurriedly said, “Toby, Tina can’t-” I love to eat mangoes, and I also like.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 22

“The mango juice is very sweet.” Tina smiled sweetly at Toby, then placed the cup on the table. “Thank you for remembering what i like.”

Toby’s thin lips twitched slightly. “I remember all the things you like.

There’s a fruit farm with decent fruits. Tomorrow, I’ll ask the boss to send two boxes of mangoes to the Gray Residence. If there are other fruits you’d like to eat, you can just tell me.”

“Okay.” Tina responded forcefully. She started to feel uncomfortable, so she pushed her chair aside and stood up as her face became paler. “I’m going to

the restroom. Toby, you can carry on chatting with my dad.”

Lifting the hem of her dress, she turned and hurried off. Tina had been allergic to mangoes since she was a child, and having just a little bit would be life threatening. Before she got to the restroom, she felt her breathing becoming uneven, then she twisted her leg and nearly fell down.

“Tina! Tina!” Julia rushed over and hurriedly held her daughter.

When Julia saw the discomfort on Tina’s face, she grew anxious. “Are you out of your mind? You’re allergic to mangoes! Why did you drink the mango juice Toby gave you? Do you have a death wish?”

“Mom, I’m not feeling well…” Tina was breathing hard and panting as she tightly clutched Julia’s hand. “Call for a doctor. You must never let Toby know.

If he asks you, you must say that I love mangoes.”

“How can you still talk about this at such a time?!” Julia rebuked, trying to help Tina to the lounge.

But, after taking a few steps, Tina felt so sick that she fainted.

“Tina!” Julia was panicking so much that she was almost in tears, and she was all over the place. “Help! Someone help!”.

In the banquet hall, Toby and Titus talked for a long time. Toby checked his watch, only to realize that twenty minutes had passed, but Tina hadn’t retumed yet.

Tina had just recovered, so Toby was afraid that something else had happened to her body. Pushing his chair back, he got up. “Mr. Gray, I’m going to look for Tina.”

“Don’t worry. Tina is fine” Julia happened to return, and when she heard what Tony said, she chuckled and assured him, “She’s just a little sleepy after busying herself with us today. I’ve brought her to the lounge to rest.” Then, she added, “Toby, you’ve also worked hard today. Go back and get some early rest When Tina wakes up, her father and I will bring her back.”

The banquet had come to an end, and Toby was indeed a little tired.

“Then, I’ll have to trouble you with that, Mrs. Gray,” Toby said solemnly. “When you’re not so busy with company affairs, i hope you and Mr. Gray can

honor me with your presence and have a meal with my mother.”

Julia smiled. “Sure. Be careful on your way back.”

Toby then retrieved his coat and left.

When he got to the door and turned around, he saw Julia tell Titus something before they walked to the back of the banquet hall in a hurry.

At the side of the hotel, Tom was already waiting. When Tom saw Toby coming out, he hurriedly opened the back door of the car. The car drove smoothly to the Fuller Residence.

Now that everything had quieted down, Toby felt even more irritated as scenes of Sonia turning up at the banquet crossed his mind. Not to mention,

there was that gentle and handsome young man beside her.

Toby tugged on his tie. After a while, he asked Tom in a deep voice, “Have you found out Carl’s family situation?”

Tom reported his findings truthfully,

“Yes. Carl was born in Jordain County.

It’s a slum area, and it’s close to the mountains, so the transportation system there isn’t developed. There‘s only one school, and it’s ten kilometers

away. Six years ago, Miss Reed went to Jordain County to visit the poor children and provided Carl with financial aid. After he left, he was scouted by Vashine Entertainment on his way to work during summer vacation, and now, he’s their most expensive male model. Carl’s also particularly smart. Miss Reed was able to become a shareholder of Paradigm Co. so quickly because he helped her.”

After hearing all that, Toby said bleakly. “Sonia is controlling Paradigm Co with her shares, but if the shareholders disagree with her, Paradigm Co. won’t

last long. She hasn’t dabbled in the industry before, so she doesn’t know anything.”

“Indeed.” Tom agreed. “President Fuller,

although you were forced to marry Miss Reed, I can see that you treat her well. Knowing that she has just taken over Paradigm Co., you must be afraid

that President Gray would take revenge on Miss Reed in the business world for his daughter’s sake, so you gave her the Ocean’s Heart to get her to leave.”

Toby closed his eyes to rest for a while. A moment later, he said, “She often goes to the Fuller Residence to accompany Grandma. She’s taken care of her for so many years, so I’m just doing it for Grandma’s sake.”

Tom smiled. “Yes. Old Mrs. Fuller likes Miss Reed very much.”

Toby could also tell that Rose liked Sonia very much. Every time he and Sonia returned to the Fuller Residence,

Rose would hold on to Sonia and talk to her non-stop. However, when he brought Tina to visit her, Rose had her dislike toward Tina clearly written on

her face.

As Toby thought of the fact that Rose didn’t like Tina, he got a headache. As such, he said coldly, “Why are you so talkative today?”

Hearing that, Tom immediately kept his mouth shut. At this moment, the phone in Toby’s suit pocket vibrated twice.

When he reached for it, he came into contact with a small hard object.

Toby looked at his phone first and saw that Tina had sent a message asking if he had arrived home. After responding to her message, the man looked at the

ring in his hand under the glow of the light in the car. Soon, he remembered that he and Sonia went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to sign the divorce

papers the other day. After they came out, he took off his wedding ring and threw it into his suit pocket. The servant must have presumed it was a valuable item and dared not remove it, so they placed the ring back after cleaning his suit.

After staring at the ring for a long time, Toby asked, “Did I buy this wedding ring?”

Tom looked at Toby in the rearview mirror, then at the ring in his hand before saying carefully, “When you married Miss Reed, you said it would be hard to explain to Miss Gray if you bought Miss Reed a wedding dress and the other necessary stuff, so there was no wedding dress or grand ceremony. The wedding ceremony was simple. Also, you asked Miss Reed to pick the ring on her own, but…” After a pause, Tom continued, “You didn’t give Miss Reed any cards, nor did you ask me to handle it, so Miss Reed bought the wedding ring herself.”

After hearing what Tom said, Toby stared even more intensely at the ring.

He thought back to how carefree and proud Sonia looked on the day they got divorced. During their six years of marriage, Sonia never asked anything

from him, and she left the marriage with nothing as well.

Tom noticed that Toby was silent for a long time. He wasn’t sure what he was thinking, so he asked after careful consideration, “President Fuller, do you want me to deal with the ring for you?”

“After you arrive at the office tomorrow moming, sort out Continental Co’s information,” Toby instructed. “Since Zane’s company has a cooperation

with Paradigm Co., you can send this information to Paradigm Co. under his name.”

“Okay.” After working for Toby for several years, Tom instantly understood the meaning behind his words. Then, he said, “Paradigm Co. is already dying. If they can successfully win over Continental Co., they might be able to start over, but the only concern is that Paradigm Co. might not have enough funds.”

Toby replied, “Then, it depends on how Sonia handles the Ocean’s Heart. The victory or defeat of Paradigm Co. lies in her hands.”

Tom couldn’t help but add, “I think Carl is quite incredible. He could easily make Miss Reed a new shareholder of Paradigm Co. If Miss Reed asks him to

help Paradigm Co., then their future.”

As he spoke, Tom noticed a sudden drop in the atmosphere in the car-it was suddenly so cold that it caused him to shudder. He immediately shut up and drove quietly.

Toby’s gaze fell on the ring again. He thought about how when he wore the wedding ring while attending various receptions over the past few years, he

managed to stop many women from throwing themselves at him. At that thought, he figured his wedding ring wasn’t just a meaningless accessory after all.

A few seconds later, Toby put the wedding ring back into his suit pocket, then said to Tom, “If Paradigm Co. can’t acquire Continental Co., bring

someone in to help.”

Tom responded, “Got it.”

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 23

Ever since Sonia returned home last night, she was in a bad mood, so she drank until midnight. In a daze, she didn’t sleep long before she was awakened by a phone ringing.

Slowly coming to her senses, she reached for her phone that was on the bedside table and answered, “Hello?”

“President Reed, it’s me-Daphne.”

Upon hearing the other party’s spontaneous introduction, Sonia sobered up a bit and quickly remembered who she was.

The person on the other end was Charles’ secretary. Charles was afraid that after she entered Paradigm Co.,

she would have none of her own people around her, so he gave his secretary to her “What’s the matter?” Sonia asked while walking toward the bathroom.

Daphne informed, “There are a few urgent documents that you need to settle at the company. When will you be coming to the office?”

Sonia figured the matter was very urgent, so she glanced at the time on her phone. “Around 8.30AM.”

“All right.”

After hanging up the phone, Sonia washed her face with cold water and lelt much better. But, she drank a lot of wine last night, so her head still hurt. She looked in the mirror, and her expression was a little unpleasant.

After washing up, Sonia tightly pursed her lips when she left the bedroom and saw the state of the living room.

I must‘ve been out of my mind last night to have drunk so much.

When Sonia arrived at the office, it was 8.30AM sharp. She had just set one foot down in the office when Daphne appeared behind her.

“President Reed, this is the urgent document that needs to be signed.”

“Okay.” While opening the file, she asked the secretary, “Has the contract with Dwells been signed?”

“Originally, it was supposed to be signed at 9.00AM today, but Dwells regretted it,” Daphne reported helplessly.

“They’re not signing it anymore?” Sonia frowned and took out her phone. Til call Charles and ask him to talk to them.”

Daphne hurriedly said, “President Reed, don’t call him. He was going to go to Dwells to talk business with them thi moming, but after answering a call, he told me that there’s something at his company that he needs to deal with, so he’ll deal with Dwells’ contract when he comes back.”

Upon hearing this, Sonia stopped calling him.

She was so focused on getting Charles to help that she almost forgot he had his own company to run and that he had a lot to deal with too.

Seeing that Sonia was silent, Daphne asked, “Then, President Reed, may leave?”

“Help me check Dwells” boss” Itinerary for today.” After taking a deep breath, Sonia ordered her secretary. “Report to me as soon as you find out. I’ll settle these few documents first.”

Daphne was taken aback. “Didn’t Charles say to wait for him to come back to deal with it?”

“He’s very busy as well, so I can’t wait for him to handle everything.” Sonia pursed her lips. “Besides, now that I’m in this position, I have to learn

whatever it is I don’t know yet.

Otherwise, I’ll be criticized before I secure my position.”

“Okay. You do your work, President Reed. I’ll go find out.” Daphne quickly left the office, leaving Sonia alone to busy herself with work.

Because Sonia had only recently come into contact with these matters, added with the fact that there were many jargons in the documents, the speed at

which she read the documents was extremely slow, so by noon, only one third of them had been processed.

After hastily eating the lunch sent by her secretary, she continued to look through the rest.

It was only at 2.30PM that she finished processing all the documents.

Sonia rubbed her sore neck and when she saw the phone on the table light up to indicate that there was a new

message, she opened it to check.

Carl: ‘Sonia, the company has arranged a job for me. I need to go to Palmont for a business trip for two months. Because of the time difference, I can’t

reply to your messages in time. If you encounter an emergency, you can call the number I left for you.”

Sonia: ‘All right. Take care of yourself there.”

As soon as Sonia replied to his message, another message popped up at the top of the screen, telling her that money had been transferred into one

of her bank accounts. When she saw the amount, her eyes widened slightly 90 million Could it be that Charles has already sold the Ocean‘s Heart?

At this moment, Carl sent another message: ‘l know Paradigm Co.’s situation isn’t good now, and you need some liquid funds. You can use this

money first. Tell me if it isn’t enough.”

Sonia: ‘I still have money in my account. If I’m really in trouble, I’ll ask Charles for help. I can’t take your money.’

Carl’s reply came in an instant. ‘Six years ago, if it weren’t for your help. belongs to you, Sonia.”

Sonia’s heart felt warm when she saw his message, and she stopped refusing Sonia: ‘Okay. I’ll treat it as you lending money to Paradigm Co. When we rise,

the money will be given back to you,

plus interest.”

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

“Come in.”

Daphne pushed open the door and walked in with a box of fruits in her arms. “President Reed, the delivery man from Four Seasons Orchard sent

this.”

After that, Daphne took a secret glance at Sonia. She saw that Sonia was Smiling slightly, seemingly happy. She thought to herself. Does President Reed

know who sent the fruits?

Sonia opened the box and saw that it was full of mangoes.

After feeling surprised, she soon remembered that Charles often gave her food and knew what she liked to eat, so she figured that Charles bought

it from the Four Seasons Orchard.

Sonia shifted her gaze away from the box of mangoes and asked, “Did you find out where the boss of Dwells is?”

“I did.” Daphne hurriedly replied. “Today happens to be Friday, and Dwells’ boss usually goes to Sakura Heights with his friends at 2.00PM to play cards. I’ve sent you the address on Messenger.”

“Okay.” Sonia got up and put on her coat. “When Paradigm Co.’s situation improves, I’ll give you a raise.”

“Thank you, President Reed.” Daphne was overjoyed.

She remembered that there was going to be a heavy rainstorm today, so she chased after Sonia to remind her to bring an umbrella, but she later found that Sonia had already entered the elevator, and her gossip-prone colleagues had surrounded her.

Her nosy colleagues were anxiously asking, “Did President Reed say anything when she saw the box of mangoes?”

“She just opened the box and took a glance.” Daphne spread her hands wide and was also quite puzzled. “Even the company’s cleaners know about

the matter between President Fuller and President Reed. Why is it that even though the two are divorced, President Fuller still sends fruits to Paradigm Co.

for her?”

“Could it be that President Fuller regrets the divorce?”

“How’s that possible! Everyone in the industry knows that President Fuller loves Miss Tina. He even proposed to her with the Ocean’s Heart!”

“Maybe President Fuller feels that after the divorce, the two parties can still become business partners.”

“Our company is about to go bankrupt;

no one wants to acquire it, let alone President Fuller!”

The gossip went on and on.

When Sonia was on the way to Sakura Heights, it suddenly rained, and it got considerably heavier.

When she arrived at Sakura Heights,

there was no more space in the underground parking, so she could only park in the open-air parking lot. Then,

as she got out of the car, she found that there was no umbrella in the car, so she had to cover her head with her bag and rush in while gritting her teeth.

The path was very close to the hall, but because of the heavy rain, Sonia still got wet, and her whole body was trembling when the cold wind blew.

When the waiter saw Sonia,

The path was very close to the hall, but because of the heavy rain, Sonia still got wet, and her whole body was trembling when the cold wind blew.

When the waiter saw Sonia, he immediately brought her a towel.

“Thank you.” Sonia dried her hair with the towel and spoke to the waiter. “It’s Friday, so business should be good,

right? Are Mr. King and the rest still playing poker in the private room?”

When the waiter heard this, he thought she was Paul’s friend. “Yes. Private room 1103 is always reserved for Mr.

King.”

After successfully tricking him, the corners of Sonia’s mouth curled up slightly When the waiter left, Sonia went to the front desk and ordered a pot of top “What’s wrong?”

Toby retracted his gaze and answered lightly. “It’s nothing.”

Sonia didn’t know that Toby was here as well, so she brought the tea into the private room with a smile on her face.

Sonia scanned the place and saw a vintage style room. Four men were sitting at a table playing cards and chatting. It felt uncomfortable,

because two of the bosses had young girls by their sides.

She had read Dwells’ information before, so in no time, she managed to identify Dwells’ boss among the four “What’s wrong?”

Toby retracted his gaze and answered lightly, “It’s nothing.”

She had read Dwells’ information before, so in no time, she managed to identify Dwells’ boss among the four men. She walked over and greeted, “Mr. King.”

Paul, who was playing cards, glanced sideways at Sonia. “Oh, who are you?”

“I’m Sonia Reed from Paradigm Co.,”

Sonia said with a smile while setting the tea and pastries down on the small table.

“I came here this afternoon to meet a friend. He played cards with you before and praised your skills. I figured the two of us have business dealings, so I

came over to say hello to you. Am | bothering all of you?”

Paul gave her a vague answer and continued playing, while the man sitting on the south side of the table asked, “Is your father Henry Reed?”

“I’m familiar with your father. I’ve played with him before. He’s really good,” the man, Chester Yancey, said. He glanced at Sonia from top to bottom, his gaze somewhat ambiguous Sonia ignored his gaze that was making her uncomfortable, then replied with a smile, “Yes, my father’s card skills are indeed good. That’s why he’s able to play with all of you, Mr.

Yancey.”

While the two chatted, the men just finished playing a round of poker.

He got up and beckoned Sonia over. “My waist hurts a little bit after playing one round. Come and play for me, darling.”

Sonia appeared embarrassed. “Mr. Yancey, I don’t know how to play.”

*Your father’s skills are so good, so how bad can you be?” The man continued to wave her over. “Come here. If you really don’t know, I’ll teach you.”

Paul spoke up as well. “You can play on Mr. Yancey’s behalf. If you really don’t want to play, then leave. Don’t spoil the fun.”

Sonia could hear the dissatisfaction in Paul’s statements.

Lately, Paradigm Co. was on the verge of collapse, so capitalists all looked down upon them and refused to buy their shares. Dwells figured that only

they could produce Paradigm Co.’s foreign goods, so Sonia would definitely beg him, which was why he was being so arrogant now.

She came here today to beg Dwells, so she was willing to suffer any grievances.

Sonia suddenly relaxed the hand that had been holding tightly onto her bag, then she got up and went to sit at Chester’s place. With a shallow smile, she said, “Mr. Yancey, if you don’t mind, I’ll play one round for you, I’ll handle the losses if I lose, but if I win, the money will be yours.”

Chester smiled with satisfaction, then sat down next to Sonia before patting her on the shoulder. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll teach you.”

Sonia turned her body to the other side, discreetly avoiding Chester’s hand.

Soon, another round of the game began Chester glanced at Sonia’s cards, which were in a mess. Seeing how randomly she was throwing down her

cards, he figured she really couldn’t play, but he didn’t give her any advice.

Instead, he chatted with Paul and instinctively placed his hand on the back of Sonia’s chair.

Even though Sonia was there, the several men spoke unscrupulously. They talked about everything, and the topic would occasionally be a little

indecent.

As they spoke, the topic turned to Sonia’s marriage with Toby.

Despite knowing the answer, Chester asked, “Darling, why did you and President Fuller get a divorce our of nowhere? How many hundreds of millions worth of his property did you “We weren’t getting along well, so we got divorced.” Sonia pressed her lips together, then quickly replied, “The

Fuller Group is President Fuller’s property, so how would I possibly be eligible to get anything? After getting divorced, I left the marriage with nothing.”

“President Fuller really doesn’t know how to conduct himself,” Chester said regretfully, then looked unscrupulously mt Sonia. “You’d slept with him for at least six years. Yet now that you’re divorced, he won’t even give you any compensation.”

Sonia released an inward sheer.

Toby doesn‘t know how to conduct himself? In fact, he‘s too good at it. In his heart, there‘s only Tina. Throughout the six years of marriage, he had never

once touched me.

If she admitted this out loud, everyone would probably laugh at her.

Sonia suppressed that emotion and smiled while answering Chester, “It’s not like I don’t have anything. I still have Paradigm Co., which my father

left for me. Mr. Yancey, you and my Father are old friends, so I might need to trouble you to help me more in the future.

Chester laughed. “Okay. Since you’ve already mentioned it, what reason could I have to not help you?”

Sonia’s card skills were truly poor, and she was repeatedly defeated by the others.

Before one round was over, the pile of cash she took out from her bag was all gone.

When she arrived, she had gotten drenched by a little rain, so the thin hali-wet. Not to mention, all the men were smoking, and the windows were wide open, so cold wind was gushing in. After the wind blew on her for a while, she felt a little light-headed, but she was forcibly enduring it.

Chester noticed that Sonia’s fingers were slender and fair, so he moved his chair closer to hers and placed his hand on top of hers. “Play this card.

Oh, darling, your hands are so cold.”

While he said that, Chester took the opportunity to touch Sonia’s hand a couple more times Sonia wanted to withdraw her hand,

but Chester held on tightly.

He inched closer to Sonia, then coaxed her, “President Fuller doesn’t know how to dote on people, but I do. If you need help with anything, just let me know.

You must want Dwells to work on your company’s overseas order, right? I’ll talk to Paul later and get him to sign the contract with you!”

Sonia was already uncomfortable, so when she smelled the stench of smoke and sweat on his body, her stomach churned.

She had been enduring it since she came in, but she couldn’t bear it anymore.

Sonia forcefully pulled her hand out,

then moved her chair before saying in a cold tone. “Mr. Yancey, I can’t play like this.”

Chester was taken aback, then his face sank and he snapped, “Darling, what’s going on? I was going to put in a good word with Paul to help your company,

but now you’re shunning me?”

“I don’t think you want to help me. You just want to sleep with me, don’t you?”

Sonia unveiled his hypocritical mask.

“As far as your company is concerned, you don’t have any money to save you. It’s only a matter of time before you go bankrupt,” Chester sneered. “I quite pity you. After six years of marriage with President Fuller, he didn’t even help you Save Paradigm Co.”

Chester’s remarks were getting increasingly unbridled. “Tell me. Now, besides using your beauty, where else can you get connections and money to

save Paradigm Co.?”

Sonia had already grabbed the teapot on the small table and was about to smash it to smithereens against Chester’s head when suddenly, there

was a knock on the door of the private room before it was pushed open..

Paul was about to ask Sonia to leave,

but as soon as he looked up, he saw the tall figure at the door and immediately stood up from his seat.

Paul was about to ask Sonia to leave, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the tall figure at the door and immediately stood up from his seat.

“President Fuller.”

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 25

President Fuller?

Sonia looked at the door of the private room, just in time to meet Toby’s cold gaze. After just one second, she averted her eyes and released the teapot in her hand.

“President Fuller, why are you here?” Chester, who was sitting next to Sonia, stood up and asked politely.

The men in the private room were all one generation older than Toby-some even two-but Toby’s power in the

industry was obvious to everyone.

Coupled with the fact that the Fuller Group was currently at the peak of their power, they wouldn’t dare get into a public dispute with Toby.

Toby shot Sonia a glance, then walked in and said in his deep voice, “I heard that you were here playing cards, Mr.

King, so I came to say hello.”

“It’s Friday today. It’s fine. Come and play some cards.” As opposed to the arrogance he displayed in front of

Sonia, at this moment, he was speaking to Toby with a smile. “It just so happened that President Reed came to talk about the order of the goods, so she stayed to play a few rounds with us.”

Chester smiled and chimed in. “That’s right. I’m friends with Sonia’s father, He’s very good at playing cards, but she must be rather unlucky, because she keeps losing.”

The other two bosses muttered a few words in agreement as well, then they took the opportunity to exchange

business cards with Toby.

Meanwhile, Sonia was silently fiddling with her cards.

After receiving the business cards from the two men, Toby strode toward Paul and said blankly, “You guys carry

on playing. I’ll just watch.”

Paul understood the man’s actions as soon as he saw it, so he immediately gave up his seat.

Toby pulled out the chair and sat down.

It was only at such a close distance did he notice that Sonia’s turtleneck was wet, and a little bit of hair was sticking

to her fair neck.

“Cough, cough!” While she was playing,

Sonia suddenly coughed twice.

Toby felt the chill, then saw that the window was wide open, so he went over and closed it before calling the

waiter over and instructing, “Bring me a blanket.”

Paul and the rest’s expressions changed when they saw the way Taby However, Sonila turned a blind eye and

ear to Toby and his words. After arranging her cards, she threw one out.

In no time, the waiter delivered the blanket.

“Thank you, but I’m not cold.” Sonia politely accepted the blanket, then stuffed it behind her chair before continuing with the game.

Seeing how stubborn she was being, Toby frowned and felt annoyed.

This woman had never even been in the business circle before, yet she dared to come here and play cards with a bunch of cunning old foxes. Isn’t she afraid of being eaten alive?

Perhaps it was because Toby was there-or perhaps because everyone in the private room knew about his relationship with Sonia-the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became very harmonious,

and no one talked about anything indecent Paul and the others even quietly fed Sonia good cards.

How could Sonia not know the true nature of these people? Letting out inward sneers, she pretended not to understand their actions and continued to throw down random cards.

The cards in her hand got worse and worse. The men wanted to win, but they didn’t dare do so.

Toby saw Sonia coughing a few more times, and his brows furrowed even more. When she was about to play a card, he leaned over, then took another card and threw it out.

When Sonia caught a whiff of the cold scent from the man’s body, she grew even more lightheaded, so she leaned

back.

Afterward, Toby basically picked cards for Sonia and laid them down,

Paul glanced at Toby, then said to Sonia almost apologetically. “A few days ago, an old customer of mine suddenly placed an order, and I didn’t inform the commerce department before signing with him. It’s only today that I learned that your company urgently needs the foreign goods, President Reed. I’m really sorry. I’ll call the commerce department later, and I’ll sign the contract at 9.00AM tomorrow.

I’ll definitely ask the factory to produce your goods as soon as possible.”

Since Paul was showing such kindness, Sonia accepted it. “Then, I’ll have to trouble you with it, Mr. King.

Couah, cough.”

Cough, cough…

Seeing how badly she was coughing, to the point where her cheeks were slightly flushed, Toby felt even more agitated. He pulled out the blanket from behind her chair and was about to wrap it around her, but Sonia noticed it and suddenly stood up to avoid contact with him.

“President Fuller, Mr. King, I still have things waiting for me to deal with at the office. You guys continue playing. Today’s bill is on me.”

With that, Sonia picked up her bag and left.

Her high heels made crisp clattering sounds on the tiles, and her slender figure quickly disappeared outside the door of the private room.

Chester was unbothered as he watched Sonia leave. While he played, he issued Toby with an invitation.

“President Fuller, there’ll be a cocktail party at 7.00PM tomorrow. Do you have time to attend and have a taste of

some good wine?”

“I’m not free tomorrow night,” Toby answered simply as he drew a card,

but he didn’t look at it as he stood up.

He glanced at Paul and the several other people at the table. His gaze was extremely sharp, and his voice was deep. “No matter how bad my ex-wife’s card skills are, no one can bully her. Mr. Yancey, don’t you agree?”

“Y-Yes.” Chester forced a smile. “President Fuller, you’ve misunderstood. We didn’t bully Miss Reed.”

“Mr. Yancey, regarding your plan to build a resort in the Northern District,

I’ve read the proposal, and I’m not interested.” Toby threw the cards on to the table, then stated with a blank

expression, “Mr. Yancey, go find a new partner.”

The man then picked up his coat and strode off.

Paul uncovered Toby’s cards and was shocked when he saw them. “Sonia’s cards were so bad, but after President Fuller took over, he was able to get winning cards…”

Meanwhile, Chester seemed paralysed in his seat, as if his soul had left his body. “Aren’t they divorced?”

That‘s right The few of them exchanged confused looks with each other.

Everyone knew that Toby’s marriage with Sonia was completely ruined, but anyone would be able to discern that

Toby was protecting his ex-wife just now.

When Sonia left the private room, she saw that it was still raining, so she went to the front desk to ask for an umbrella.

Not only was it raining heavily outside,

it was also cold. As the cold wind blew on her, her coughing got even more severe. When she reached the front of

the car and was about to open the car door, her wrist was tightly grabbed.

When Toby felt how cold the woman’s hands were, his eyes darkened, “You can’t drive like this. I’ll send you back.

“President Fuller, let go,” Sonia tried hard to pull her hand out while saying coldly: “Even if I can’t drive, I can call for a driver. You don’t need to bother about mel”

In the past, Sonia was docile and virtuous, and she never spoke like this.

Now, when she called him “President Fuller”, it sounded piercing.

“Sonia, we’re just divorced. I’m not your enemy.” Toby summoned his patience to talk to her. “You can tell me if you

need anything. There’s no need to suffer by coming here to play cards with Mr. King and the rest.”

Curling her lips, Sonia sneered.

“Compared to the grievances I suffered during our marriage, what happened today were trivial matters.”

At this moment, Sonia’s phone rang.

Ignoring Toby, she took out her phone and saw that it was Charles calling, so she quickly answered the phone. “Hey,

are you done settling your company’s business?”

“Not yet. I went to Norfolk for a business trip. I won’t be back until next Wednesday.”

“Okay. That’s fine. Settle your affairs first,” Sonia replied, then lowered her head and coughed. “Dwells will sign

the contract with us tomorrow.”

“Didn’t I say that I’d deal with it after i return? Did they bully you?”

“Yeah.”

Toby was standing next to her, so even though the call wasn’t on speakerphone, he could vaguely hear their conversation.

He watched as Sonia brazenly behaved coquettishly with Charles, and she even asked him to go to a branded

store to bring two new items back.

Compared to the docile person she was before, she was a completely different person, which caused an insuppressible sense of irritation to rise in Toby’s heart.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 26

Standing beside the car, Sonia talked on the phone in the cold wind. She felt a little dizzy, and her feet swayed.

Toby’s gaze darkened, then he calmly took the phone from Sonia’s hand and hung up before picking her up and walking to the other side of the car.

Being lifted into the air all of a sudden,

Sonia was shocked, and the umbrella nearly flew out of her hand. She panicked and grabbed the man’s shirt with one hand as her face grew slightly cold.

“Toby, let me down!”

Ignoring her, Toby opened the passenger door and stuffed her into the car.

*President Fuller, are you done creating trouble?” Watching as the man tugged on her seatbelt, Sonia snapped coldly, “I can find a driver. You don’t need to care about me!”

During their six years of marriage, Toby never cared about her. The two had only had a handful of conversations. But, after their divorce, she and Toby had met several times in just a few days.

When did Seafield become so small?

Toby noticed the discomfort and stubborness on her face, and annoyance filled his heart. “The weather is so bad. Even if you order for a substitute driver, no One will take vour order.”

“It’s my business whether I get one or not.”

“Sonia.” Toby leaned closer to her. His cold breath enveloped her, and his eyes were cold and sullen. “Do you have to be so stubborn?”

There wasn’t much space in the car, so Sonia had nowhere to hide when he approached her.

Her face grew chilly. She was about to speak, but she accidentally glanced behind the man’s back and found that he couldn’t hold the umbrella when he carried her in to the car. It was raining heavily outside, so most of his back was wet.

Sonia’s heart gave a fierce shudder, and the words she was about to say died in her mouth as she quickly looked awav.

Toby cast her a glance before continuing to pull the seat belt across her. However,

because he was too close, his fingers accidentally rubbed against her heaving chest.

Both of them froze.

Sonia was the first to react. She pulled the seat belt from his hand and inserted it in tothe buckle.

Toby’s Adam’s apple bobbed. I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay. I know you didn’t mean to do it, President Fuller.” Sonia thought about what Chester said when they were playing

cards just now, and she couldn’t help but taunt him. “President Fuller, you’re a rare ‘saint” that’s only seen once every thousand vears!”

Met with the woman’s cold remarks, Toby frowned, but he quickly got into the driver’s seat and started the engine.

Toby asked, “Where do you live?”

“Bayside Residence,” Sonia answered stonily, then looked out the window and rested her chin on her hands.

Neither of them spoke again. Silence filled the car, the only sound was the slight swiping of the wipers.

Sonia had been exposed to the rain, so she was feeling very uncomfortable.

Now that the heater was blowing hot wind,

the cold was replaced with heat. After a while, she grew groggy and fell asleep in

the car.

They soon arrived at Bayside Residence, but Toby didn’t know which building Sonia lived in. Seeing how flushed her face was, he figured she had caught a cold, so he looked for a drugstore along the road and got down to buy a box of flu medicine.

“Sonia.” Toby patted the woman on the cheek. “Have some flu medicine.”

After calling her several times, Sonia still didn’t respond, but she coughed a few times. Hence, he took the medicine, then pinched her jaw and forced the medicine into her mouth.

Sonia’s lips were a bit cold, but very soft. It felt a little seductive, which made it difficult for Toby to control himself as he plunged deeper in.

All of a sudden, the phone on the car’s ammest vibrated.

Toby returned to his senses. His eyes scanned over Sonia‘s slightly swollen lips,

whereupon he realized what he had just done. His eyebrows twitched, then he answered the phone.

“Toby, have you finished discussing the collaboration?” Tina’s soft voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

“Yeah”

*Then come to the Outlet Mall to pick me and your mom up.” Tina said. “Madam White and I went shopping, but it suddenly started raining heavily. The driver went to school to fetch Tyler. He can’t make it, so I called you.”

Toby glanced at Sonia in the passenger seat, then replied in a low volce, “Okay. I’ll be there in 15 minutes.”

“Be careful on the road.”

There was a faint fragrance in the car, which was the smell of the perfume Sonia usually used. The more Toby smelled it, the more troubled he felt.

Taking an umbrella, he got out of the car and called Tom to inform him that he was at the south entrance of Bayside

Residence About five minutes later, Tom arrived.

“President Fuller.” Tom came over with some clothes. He was a little surprised to See Toby standing beside the car, then he took a look at the car behind him.

Hey, isn‘t that Miss Reed‘s car?

Toby took the clothes and the car keys, then glanced at the car behind him with a knowing gaze. “Drive her car and bring her to the Sheraton Hotel, then ask the attendant to take her temperature.”

“Okay.” Tom replied without asking any questions.

Toby drove to the Outlet Mall, occasionally thinking of Sonia’s stubborn appearance and her soft lips, which disturbed him,

He lowered the windows of the car slightly and he felt better after being caressed by the cold wind.

After arriving at the Outlet Mall, Toby quickly spotted Tina and Jean standing at the entrance, both carrying several

shopping bags.

He took an umbrella and got out of the car, then hurriedly walked over. “It’s so cold. Why didn’t you wait inside?”

Upon seeing him approach, a slight smile appeared at the comers of Tina‘s lips.

“Madam White and I just came out, and Surprisingly, you arrived at the same time.”

Reside her. Jean Snickered, “Who said we just came out? Tina knew that you were coming, so she wanted to come out to wait for you! Don’t look at what she bought. All she bought for herself was a coat. The rest are clothes for you.”

“Madam White.” Tina blushed a little after being exposed. “If you say anything more, Toby will think I’m not reserved at all.”

“Oh, we’re all family. Why are you still being so polite and calling me Madam White?”

Hearing this, Tina blushed even more.

“It’s cold outside. Let’s get into the car first,” Toby urged while taking the shopping bags from Tina’s hand and covering her head with the umbrella,

After Tina got in the car, he went to fetch Jean.

After getting in the car, Jean said, “Tina, look at how well Toby takes care of you. He brought you into the car first before coming to fetch me, his own mother. How biased. I think when you really get married, he won’t care about me anymore.”

The grin on Tina’s face grew wider. Afraid that Jean would tease her again, she changed the subject and asked Toby. “Is this Tom’s car?”

“Yeah.” Toby’s eyes moved, then he said in a low voice, “Tom sent my car to 4S Automation for maintenance.”

“No wonder you’re picking me and Madam White up in his car.”

At this moment, Jean intervened, “I heard Tina say that you were talking to people at Sakura Heights about a cooperation, and you even bought some pastries for Tina. How many boxes did you buy? Let me try some.”

Toby had wanted to determine if the person in Paul’s private room was Sonia, and he left the place with her too

afterward.

He completely forgot to buy the pastries.

Toby said, “I was so busy discussing business matters that I forgot about it. I have the boss‘ phone number. I‘ll get them to send a few boxes home tomorrow.”

“Look at you. How forgetful,” Jena chided. “Tina was thinking about you while she was shopping. She bought plenty of stuff for you, but you even forgot to buy pastries for her.”

With that, she took Tina’s hand and said with a smile, Tina, have dinner at my house tonight. You’ve just recovered, so I’ll cook some soup for you to nourish your body.”

Tina gave her a small smile. “Thank you, Madam White.”

At this moment, the phone in her bag vibrated a few times.

After checking and seeing the content and picture in the message, the smile on her face froze.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 27

“Tina, what’s wrong?” Jean asked, as if sensing that there was something off about Tina’s expression.

Tina immediately locked her phone and said softly, “It’s nothing. My mother sent me a message asking when I’m going back. I’ll reply to her later.”

Jean didn’t suspect anything and turned to talk to Toby.

After making sure that Jean wasn’t looking at her, Tina picked up her phone again and read the message her friend had sent her.

This friend of hers was also playing cards at Sakura Heights today. She said that shew Toby and wanted to say hello, but she saw himchasing after Sonia. Then, the two of them sload by the car and chatted for a long time Tima turned off the volume before clicking on the video She saw Toby saying something to Sonia, then he picked her up and placed her in the driver’s seat of her car before driving away It was just a short ten-second video, but Tina felt chills all over her hands and feet as she held her phone in a firm squeeze.

Aren’t they divorced? Then why did Toby get into Sonia’s car? And why did he lie to me?

Tina remembered that at the banquet that night, Toby seemed to be on her side, but as soon as Sonia made the request, he gave her the Ocean’s Heart because he didn’t want to humiliate Sonia. And today’s video…

Tina felt a sense of panic in her heart. She was afraid that even though Toby and Sonia were divorced, Toby still wasn’t fully hers.

Could it be that she was destined to be unable to keep something she stole?

When Sonia woke up in the hotel, it was already the next morning.

She remembered being caught in the rain last night and catching a cold, but when she woke up, she felt refreshed.

Sonia soon remembered that Toby had driven her back to Bayside Residence yesterday afternoon. While she was still in a muddled state, she felt someone feeding her something…

Was it Toby?

Sonia banished the images from her mind, then quickly washed up before leaving the hotel.

After arriving at the office, Sonia called Daphne. “Dwells’ boss will come to the office to sign the contract later, so get the contract ready.”

Daphne was surprised. “President Reed,

you managed to seal the deal with Dwells?”

“Yeah. Although Sonia didn’t want to admit it, if it hadn’t been for Toby coming to the private room yesterday afternoon, Dwells boss wouldn’t have relented and taken on Paradigm Co.’s order.

She owed Toby a favor.

“Okay.” Daphne nodded, then quickly went to prepare the contract.

After taking off her coat, Sonia hung it on the hanger. Just as she was about to sit down and settle the documents Daphne had sent, the phone on her desk rang.

She answered, “Hello?”

“President Reed, a gentleman named Zane wants to see you,” the receptionist reported. “Do you know him?”

Sonia responded, “Send him up.”

Soon, there was a knock on the office door, and the receptionist led a man in.

The man was dressed in comfortable and loose casual clothing; his jet-black hair was thick with the ends slightly curling upward, and his facial features were so perfect that no flaws could be found. He was handsome and carried himself with ease and natural poise.

His narrow eyes swept nonchalantly across the office before finally landing on Sonia “President Reed, you adapt really well.” Zane walked toward the desk, then pulled out the chair and sat down. He began makina conversation with Sonia as if they making conversation with Sonia as if they were close friends. “You’ve only been in Paradigm Co, for a few days, but you already possess the spirit of a proper leader. I couldn’t tell that you’d been a housewife for six years.”

“I didn’t expect that the romantic and suave playboy who couldn’t refuse any women would turn out to be the youngest son of the mayor.” When it came to being sharp-tongued, Sonia was never weak.

Zane raised his eyebrows. “President Reed, I was complimenting you for finally being yourself, yet you’re insulting me?”

“I was praising you for being popular with the ladies.”

Zane knew that this woman looked gentle and dignified, but she was extremely good at talking. After adjusting his posture, he said, “I know that Paradigm Co. has an overseas order and wants Dwells’ factory to produce it, but I know a factor that’s even better at producing foreign goods.”

“Are you saying that you want to introduce resources to me?” Sonia looked at him in surprise. “Why?”

Zane shrugged, then spoke in a lazy and casual manner. “We have a business relationship, don’t we? If I have good

resources, of course I’ll introduce it to you.

Treat it as a personal favor!”

Sonia didn’t believe his nonsense. “Mr.

Coleman, we’ve only met once before, so we‘re not even close with each other, and another man. If I don’t get my revenge, I’d be a sorry excuse of a man…

Sonia looked at the woman in the photo. “Your girlfriend is very beautiful. I didn’t expect that there would come a day where you would get cheated on.”

Zane ignored the sympathetic look she was giving him. “Yeah. I can’t tolerate being cheated on! So, I want to take revenge on Dwells. No friend around me is allowed to cooperate with Dwells. You and I are partners, so of course, you can’t cooperate with them either. This standard of the foreign goods this factory produces is higher than Dwells’. Believe me.” Zane fiddled with his phone. “I’ll send you the number of the person in charge at Rentoor.”

“Rentoon?” Sonia was slightly shocked.

She knew about Rentoor Inc. They were a well-known factory in Norfolk. Because of its high quality, many foreign companies approached them to produce their goods.

She even heard that their production orders were scheduled until next year.

Initially, Sonia wanted to approach Rentoon too, but because she didn’t have any way to do it, she went for the second best option and chose Dwells.

“I’m very familiar with their business in Norfolk,” Zane explained. When he saw the box of mangoes by the table, he picked one up and peeled it before eating it. “Call him and talk to him first.”

Sonia immediately copied the number given by Zane before dialing it. The other party picked up fairly quickly.

Sonia knew the overseas order like the back of her hand, so her conversation with Rentoor’s commerce department went smoothly. It didn’t seem like she was a newbie who had just entered the industry at all; she spoke in such a clear and organized manner that even Zane was looking at her with admiration.

Finally, Rentoor’s staff told Sonia that after signing the contract, they could produce her goods within the time limit, but she needed to go to the factory on Thursday to have a look. The two parties would discuss again before going through with the contract After hanging up the phone, the burden in Sonia’s heart was lifted completely. “Zane, you’ve done me a huge favor.”

“As long as you don’t cooperate with Dwells, we’re friends.” Zane had finished eating a mango and was wiping his hands with a tissue. “Four Seasons Orchard has good mangoes this year. Did Toby send them?”

As Sonia thought of what happened yesterday afternoon, she frowned. “No.1 divorced him a long time ago, so I won’t

accept the things he sends. A childhood friend of mine bought these. You can bring them back if you like.”

“Really?” Zane raised an eyebrow and gave her a knowing look.

Sonia found the look he was giving her to be strange. After taking a look at the time, she got up and put on her coat. “Mr. Coleman, if you don’t have any plans for lunch, let me treat you to a meal.”

“Sure. Then I’ll have to pick the restaurant well.” Zane followed her out of the office.

“Sonia, you b*tch. Come here right now! | must teach you a proper lesson!”

As soon as Sonia came out, she heard the noises outside, and the voice was rather familiar. Looking up, she saw Jean

standing not far away from her. With her hands on her hips, she was screaming at Sonia at the top of her lungs.

There were emnloveee around her who There were employees around her who tried to throw her out, but they retreated after being scolded by Jean Sonia walked over in her high heels, then asked calmly, “Madam White, is something wrong?”

“You b*tch. You’re finally showing yourself!” When she saw Sonia, Jean became even angrier. She stalked toward Sonia in a rage, then raised her hand to slap Sonia.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 28

Sonia was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Fuller Family, so she did not have to bear with Jean anymore. She grasped Jean’s wrist forcefully and pushed her away which caught the latter completely off guard. Because of that, Jean lost her balance and fell onto the ground. Her image was ruined as she moaned in pain.

“Madam White, please mind your behavior;” Sonia said coldly, “If you’re going to start throwing hands, I will not

hesitate to do the same.”

Jean was boiling in anger. “Sonia, how dare you say that to me!”

Previously, when Sonia and Toby were still married, Sonia was extremely obedient to Jean and would never dare to talk back. However, she had changed completely after the divorce.

“I knew you were a b*tch! You have been putting up an act all this while to cotton up to me!” Jean scowled. Despite wearing an elegant dark blue dress, she looked shrewish with her ferocious expression.

“You’re the one who refused to take a single cent from Toby when you guys divorced! What is this attitude you’re giving me right now? Have you no shame?!”

“It’s true that I didn’t take money from Toby.” Sonia looked directly into Jean’s eyes.

“Why are you still pestering my son then?!” Jean snarled.

She then took out a stack of pictures from her handbag and distributed them to the staff who were watching, “Look at your boss. What a shameless woman. My son has already divorced her and even has a girlfriend now, but she still refuses to let

go of him. She just won’t stop pestering him!”

After distributing the pictures, Jean threw the remaining pictures at Sonia. “Take a look for yourself. How could you be so shameless to ask Toby to carry you into the car?!”

The pictures which Jean threw hit Sonia before landing on the ground. Sonia picked up a couple of them and saw Toby and her in them–she was talking to Tohv hecide in them-she was talking to Toby beside the car while holding an umbrella. Because the two of them were standing close to each other, it seemed as if she was hugging Toby. On the other hand, the second picture was the scene of Toby carrying her into the car.

Little did Sonia expect that someone had secretly captured pictures of Toby and her when they were at the car park yesterday afternoon.

Jean pointed at Sonia and continued to reprimand, “Tina’s father has apologized to you regarding the video, but you’re such an ungrateful brat! You do know that Tina likes mangoes, don’t you? And yet you dared to ask Toby to send mangoes to your company!”

Sonia was startled by Jean’s words. She didn’t know Tina liked mangoes and thought that the box of mangoes was from Charles. It turned out that it wasn’t the “I’m warning you, Sonia-you better stay away from my son! The reason Toby agreed to marry you six years ago was because of Tina. Otherwise, given your status, do you think you deserve to be with Toby?”

Seeing Sonia’s pale face, Zane quickly stood up to mediate. “Madam White, although Miss Reed and Toby have divorced, they are still friends. The pictures must be a misunderstanding, Why don’t you go back and ask Toby about it?”

“If she didn’t seduce Toby, why would he carry her into the car?” Jean questioned,

“Maybe Miss Reed was feeling unwell, and Toby merely helped her out of kindness. Madam White, this is Miss Reed’s office after all. You’ll put her in a difficult situation by causing such a scene,” Zane said politely However, Jean darted a glare at Zane and thereafter looked at Sonia with her eyes filled with contempt. Then, she sneered in a loud and sharp voice, “Ha! You’re really good at seducing men, Sonia. Not only did you seduce the model, but you won’t even

spare Toby’s friend!”

With that, Zane was rendered speechless.

Meanwhile, seeina how Jean was beina increasingly unreasonable, Sonia grabbed a cup of coffee from a staff’s table and splashed it toward Jean’s face. The coffee was still warm as it was splashed onto Jean’s face and her dress. Screaming, Jean quickly took some napkins to wipe the stains on her dress.

“You b*tch!” Jean almost wanted to tear Sonia into pieces when her favorite dress was stained. Nevertheless, before she could do anything, the securities had rushed up and held her down.

Sonia put the coffee cup back on the table and stared at Jean coldly. “President Fuller is a renowned man in the business circle. I hope that you will conduct yourself better,

Madam White, lest other people think President Fuller’s mother is a rude shrew.

Also, this is Paradigm Co.-my company.

Therefore, please make an appointment at the concierge if you would like to see me. If a situation like this happens again,

ask my lawyer to talk to you, Madam White.”

Before Jean could blow up, Sonia ordered the two securities, “Madam White here has disrupted everyone’s work. Please send her out.”

“Let go of me! I’m going to kill this b*tch!”

Jean was still cursing Sonia as she was dragged out by the securities, and she looked like a shrew indeed.

Meanwhile, the staff sensibly dismissed themselves and went back to their desks to work.

“My apologies, Mr. Coleman.” Sonia smiled faintly while wiping the coffee stain which spattered onto her sleeve.

Thereafter, the two went into the lift. Zane couldn’t stop glancing at Sonia as he rubbed his chin with his slender fingers and commented, “I realize you’ve changed a lot after divorcing Toby”

Before Toby and Sonia had divorced, Zane had gone to the Fullers’ residence a few times and had seen the way Jean treated Sonia like a servant, ordering her about. On the other hand, Sonia would always obey her commands in a servile manner. As such, Zane was very surprised to see Sonia’s domineering stance today when she splashed coffee at Jean and taught her a lesson.

“Yeah. Thanks to Toby,” Sonia said in sarcasm.

She married Toby six years ago because she loved him. She had been an obedient daughter-in-law and served the Fullers while bearing with Jean’s scolding and unreasonableness, thinking that by doing so, Toby would be moved and fall in love with her.

Nonetheless, it was only later on did she realize it was just her wishful thinking.

There was already someone else in Toby’s heart, so no matter how she loved him humbly and wholeheartedly, she wouldn’t be able to capture his heart.

“It’s not a bad thing that you guys divorced. I reckon no woman will dare to marry into the Fullers aiven Madam

White’s character.” Zane freaked out at the thought of Jean’s fierce look. Toby is amazing for not being psychologically distorted having a mother like this.” Then, he changed the topic and asked Sonia, “The model seems pretty decent. When do you guys plan to get married?”

Sonia wasn’t that close with Zane and thought she didn’t have to tell him everything, so she answered, “Carl is quite

busy and has gone on a business trip overseas.”

Hearing that, Zane perceived that the two were indeed dating, and he hummed in response.

When the lift arrived on the ground floor, a message came into Zane’s phone. He glanced at it and turned to Sonia. “Miss Reed, I’ll take a rain check on the lunch as I have some matters to attend to.” “Sure.” Sonia nodded and sent Zane out of the company After arriving at Majestique, Zane found the private room and entered it. Seeing that Toby was already here, Zane said immediately. “Your mother was making a scene at Paradigm Co. just now.”

Toby frowned. “What did she do?”

“Sigh. It’s because of the person who took pictures of you carrying Sonia into the car.”

Zane sat down and poured himself a cup of tea. “I have no idea how she got those pictures. She went to find Sonia in her company and scolded her for being shameless and seducing you even alier you guys are divorced.”

Zane continued asking with interest, What’s going on? Are you the one seducing Sonia?”

“No.” Toby shot Zane a cold glance and explained in a displeased tone, “She wasn’t feeling well after being caught in the rain yesterday afternoon. I was worried that she would cause a car accident if she drove, so I decided to send her back, but she was stubborn and insisted on getting a temporary driver.”

“She’s right. She could have just gotten a driver. Question is, why were you, her ex husband, worried about her?” Zane tutted.

“Thanks to your ‘kind act, your mother went to Paradigm Co. and called Sonia “She’s right. She could have just gotten a driver. Question is, why were you, her ex husband, worried about her?” Zane tutted, “Thanks to your ‘kind act, your mother went to Paradigm Co. and called Sonia names in front of all her colleagues.”

Upon hearing that, Toby was rendered speechless.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 29

Zane ignored the gloomy face Toby was giving and asked again, “Also, why did you ask someone to send mangoes to Paradigm Co.7”

Toby furrowed his brows. “I didn’t.”

Toby’s face darkened even more after Zane explained how Jean scolded Sonia because of the matter about the mangoes.

Then, he quickly called Four Seasons Orchard to look into it.

After looking into the matter, the person-in charge quickly apologized, “I’m sorry.

President Fuller, the delivery man wasn’t aware of your divorce and thought Miss Reed was still your wife, so he delivered the mangoes to Miss Reed’s company instead. My sincere apologies about that.”

Toby had put his phone on speaker, so Zane–who was sitting across from him–heard the content too. “Oh, poor Sonia. She was wrongly accused by your mother.”

Feeling vexed, Toby rubbed his eyebrows.

He had never thought that someone would have the guts to secretly take pictures of him at Sakura Heights. Besides that, he had not expected that the mangoes would be delivered wrongly, which caused Jean to confront Sonia at Paradigm Co.

After waiting for the waiter to serve the dishes and walk out, Toby asked Zane, “Has Sonia talked with the person-in

charge from Rentoon?”

“Yeah, She’s going to visit Rentoor’s factory on Thursday.”

Zane even praised Sonia. “I think even if you didn’t give Rentoor a heads-up, they will still be willing to collaborate with Sonia given her eloquence. Although she has just entered the business circle, she’s a fast learner, and that is really something.”

“You think so? All of a sudden, Toby felt like it wasn’t that he didn’t know Sonia well enough, but he just had not paid attention to her at all.

After having married Sonia for six years, all he could remember was the scene of Sonia being busy at home. As a

responsible wife, she would prepare charge from Rentoon?”

Yeah, She’s going to visit Rentoor’s factory on Thursday.”

Zane even praised Sonia. “I think even if you didn’t give Rentoor a heads-up, they will still be willing to collaborate with Sonia given her eloquence. Although she has just entered the business circle, she’s a fast learner, and that is really something.”

“You think so?* All of a sudden, Toby felt like it wasn’t that he didn’t know Sonia well enough, but he just had not paid attention to her at all.

After having married Sonia for six years, all he could remember was the scene of Sonia being busy at home. As a

responsible wife, she would prepare delicious dinners for him and iron his clothes.

Toby had never expected that besides doing house chores, Sonia was outstanding in other aspects too.

Zane shrugged. “You’ll understand when you see it for yourself next time. Your ex wife is really something. But I don’t understand, Toby. Isn’t Paradigm Co. going to sign a contract with Dwells soon? Why did you still introduce Rentoor to them?”

Zane asked. “You would owe Rentoor a favor by doing so, and Rentoor would surely bother you to return this favor in the future.”

“This overseas order is very important for Paradigm Co., which is currently very unstable,” Toby replied indifferently while eating. “Dwells is good at dealing with overseas orders, but Rentoor is even better, and they are more well-known than Dwells. If Paradigm Co. can establish a long-term collaboration with Rentoor, they won’t have to go look for orders as the business with Rentoor will be profitable enough.”

“Did I hear it right? Toby, are you helping your ex-wife to build connections?” Zane rubbed his chin.

Toby remained silent for a moment and said nonchalantly, “She did not ask for anything when we divorced. I’m doing so as compensation to her.”

*This compensation is too stingy. She has stayed with your family for six years.

Having been ordered around by your mother every day for six years straight–if I were Sonia, even a billion is too little of a compensation.” Zane chuckled.

Before Zane could finish teasing Toby, the latter suddenly put down the cutlery and grabbed his blazer on the back of his chair.

“I’m heading back to the office.”

Seeing Toby walk out, Zane yelled, “I’m just spitting facts. Did that bother you, Toby?”

As a response to him, Toby flung the door closed with a loud bang.

“Go ahead and fling it. I don’t have to pay for any damage caused anyway.” Zane shrugged and summoned the waiter to order more food Some staff of Paradigm Co, had secretly recorded the video of Jean causing a scene in the company, and that particular video had spread across the business circle.

Everyone was surprised that Toby, who was resolute and honorable in the business circle, actually had such a

ferocious mother. Meanwhile, some thought Sonia was too much for treating her ex-mother-in-law that way after

watching the second half of the video which had been deliberately edited.

Some even came up with theories that Sonia had already been together with the model from Vashine Entertainment long ago, and that Toby had divorced her upon finding out her betrayal.

All sorts of conspiracy theories started going around the business circle.

Nonetheless, Sonia couldn’t bother less about the rumors. After settling the agendas in the company, she went to Norfolk on Thursday. Rentoor’s factory occupied a large area in Norfolk After Sonia greeted Rentoor’s boss, she followed him to visit the production line, to observe how the overseas goods were made and to inspect the final products. Both of them negotiated from lunch at noon till 2 in the afternoon. Finally, they came to an agreement and the contract was signed by both parties.

Sonia wore a relaxed smile the moment she saw Rentoor’s stamp sealed on the contract. She then shook hands with

Rentoor’s boss. “I’ll count on you for the orders then. The New Year is coming soon M’ll ask my secretary to send some gifts to you and the staff later.”

“No problem. You’re too kind, President Reed.”

Later, Sonia turned down the boss’ invite for dinner and bought a plane ticket at 3 P.M. It was 4.30 P.M. when she arrived back at Seafield.

While walking along the boarding bridge, a passerby who was walking in a rush beside Sonia accidentally bumped into her,

causing her to almost lose grip of her phone.

“I’m sorry.”

Seeing that the other party had apologized,

Sonia didn’t think it was necessary to make a fuss. She quickly picked up the scarf from the floor and passed it to the person. Just then, the person lifted her head and Sonia realized it was someone she knew, so she greeted her politely, “Hi, Mrs. Gray. What a coincidence.”

Julia‘s originally gentle-looking face darkened when she saw Sonia.

Without thanking her, Julia quickly grabbed her scarf and said coldly, “We‘re having dinner with Toby’s parents tonight to decide the date for Toby and Tina’s engagement. Miss Reed, since you’ve already divorced Toby, please stay away from him.”

Hearing that, Sonia smirked slightly. “I’m so sorry. If it wasn’t that I asked President Fuller for the Ocean’s Heart, he and Miss Gray would have been engaged long ago.”

“You!” Julia glared at Sonia with a sullen look.

“Don’t worry. Mrs. Gray. I’ve never regretted any of my decisions and will definitely not get back with President Fuller. He and Tina are a good match.” With that, Sonia brushed past Julia and walked away resolutely Initially, Julia wanted to give Sonia a warning, but she was irritated by her in return. With a gloomy expression, she walked out of the airport with her luggage and coincidentally saw Sonia talking to her secretary. Sonia’s side profile caught Julia’s attention when the former was getting into the car as she thought it looked rather familiar. Julia gazed fixedly at Sonia’s car until it disappeared from her sight.

“Honey.” Titus walked over in a hurry and took the luggage from Julia. “Sorry I’m late. The traffic was terrible.”

Seeing as she was ignoring him, Titus asked, “What happened?”

“N-Nothing.” Julia retracted her gaze and walked to the car with Titus while asking him, “Where are we going for dinner?”

Titus opened the door to the backseat and escorted Julia in. “At Sheraton Hotel under Fuller Group. It’s just a dress you could’ve asked someone to send it here. Why bother to go all the way to Norfolk to get it? That’s too tiring.”

*This is Tina‘s favorite dress, and she wants to wear it tonight. I was worried that the others would be careless and ruin it.

She has to be at her best appearance tonight when having dinner with Toby’s family,” Julia replied.

“Yes, yes. I know you love Tina. Let’s go.”

After getting into the car, Julia realized there was a bouquet of baby’s breath at the other end of the seat. Her smile

disappeared at once as a complicated look spread across her face.

After Titus got into the car, his eyes turned dim when he saw Julia holding the look spread across her face.

After Titus got into the car, his eyes turned dim when he saw Julia holding the bouquet of flowers.

“It’s Rina’s death anniversary today.”

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 30

“Yeah… It’s Rina’s death anniversary today.

Julia’s hands–which were holding the bouquet of baby’s breath–trembled as she was reminded of her eldest daughter who had passed away at a young age. In the end, she couldn’t help but start to cry.

As she was too heartbroken upon losing her eldest daughter, Julia placed all of her attention on the youngest daughter,

However, she would still feel her heart wrench every year during Rina’s death anniversary “There, there. Let’s not cry.” Titus embraced Julia and cooed, “Today’s not only Rina’s death anniversary, but it’s also Tina’s engagement day. I’m sure Rina would be happy for her sister if she knew Tina is getting engaged.”

Julia was crying so hard that she could even feel her chest hurting. “If it wasn’t for Henry the b*stard, Rina w-wouldn‘t have…”

Julia sobbed in a choking voice.

Titus’ eyes darkened. “The Reed Family has already been destroyed, and Sonia is the only one left.”

Six years ago, Titus had driven Henry to death and ruined the Reeds in order to avenge his elder daughter’s death.

However, he couldn’t lay a finger on Sonia because she had already married Toby at that time. Little did Titus expect that six years later, Sonia would acquire Paradigm Los shares and become the biggest shareholder of the company.

“All Sonia has is Paradigm Co. and nothing else. Dealing with her is going to be a piece of cake.” Titus was heartbroken at the thought of his deceased daughter, and his hatred toward the Reeds deepened even more.

On the other hand, Julia was hesitant. “Forget about it. She’s Toby’s ex-wife after all. If Toby becomes aware of this, I’m worried it would cause Tina trouble in the future.”

Titus shorted. “Don’t you know why Toby married Sonia? He doesn’t love her at all. If he did, he wouldn’t just sit back and watch the downfall of the Reeds, and he surely wouldn’t just watch Paradigm Co, slip away from him like that.”

“Stop worrying about this matter and leave it to me. Rina had fallen in love with the crown at first sight back then. Ask Tina for it later and keep it well lest Tina should give it away again.”

Julia nodded and stared at the bouquet sorrowfully On the other hand, Sonia planned to head back to the office to settle a few urgent documents before going home to rest. The moment she arrived at the office, her secretary informed her, “President Reed,

Mr. King from Dwells is here and is now chatting with Mr. Lane in his office.”

Sonia smirked coldly. “I see. I’ll go and take a look.”

Last Friday when they were playing cards at Sakura Heights, Paul had said that he would send someone to bring the contract to Paradigm Co the next day to sign it, but no one came in the end. Sonia wasn’t a fool; she knew Paul wanted to string her along and wait for her to call Dwells on her own. Fortunately, thanks to Zane, she had found a better business partner for Paradigm Co.

Sonia knocked on Charles’ door and entered his office. Seeing that Charles was making small talk with Paul, she walked up to them and smiled as she greeted Paul,

“Hi Mr. King, it’s been a while.”

“Hi, President Reed.” Paul stood up and politely shook Sonia’s hand.

After sitting down, Sonia sipped her tea and did not bring up the matter about their collaboration Seeing so, Paul had no choice but to bring it up. “I’m so sorry. President Reed. For the past few days, I was so busy I couldn’t make it over to sign the contract. I’m here today to make an apology.”

With that, he presented the contract to Sonia and said, “Please take a look at the contract and we can sign it if there’s no other issue.”

Charles frowned and wanted to say something, but Sonia gave him a look and gestured to him to refrain from speaking.

Then, she said to Paul, “Mr. King, my secretary told me that she tried contacting you via your office number before this but couldn’t reach you. Because it’s an urgent order and we couldn’t afford to delay. I’ve already contacted another company to handle it.”

“President Reed, my company is the top manufacturer in the country for overseas orders. You claimed that you value the quality of the product, but how could you end up engaging a below-par manufacturer just because you’re rushing to ship the order?” Paul thought Sonia was merely saying so to bargain with him, so he became a little arrogant.

Sonia smiled, “Besides your company,

Rentoor Inc. is also well-known in manufacturing goods for overseas orders.”

“But I heard Rentoor is fully booked until next year. President Reed, did you really sign a contract with Rentoon7″ Paul was still in disbelief and pressed on.

What he said when they were playing cards the other day was merely out of respect toward Toby. In fact, he didn’t take Sonia seriously at all, but little did he think that she managed to engage Rentoor.

Sonia has just entered the business circle and has no connections. How would she know the boss of Rentoor? Could it be that Toby is helping her?

Paul was reminded of how Toby cared for Sonia that day when they were playing cards, so he thought it wasn’t surprising that Toby would help her to build connections.

Within a few seconds, Paul understood the situation. Gritting his teeth, he said to Sonia, “President Reed, to be honest, I was merely bluffing when I said that an old client requested additional orders. Earlier on, President Gray called me and asked me to not take up orders from Paradigm Co.”

Hearing that, Charles snorted. “No wonder! All this while I was wondering why you wouldn‘t take up such a profitable business. I figured that there’s a possibility that someone is picking on our company.

Ha! Turns out I was right!”

– “Our company has quite a number of collaborations with Gray Group, so I was in a quandary.” Paul smiled awkwardly and continued immediately, “But I still wish to collaborate with Paradigm Co. Otherwise, I wouldn’t take the risk of offending President Gray and come here today.”

What Sonia needed currently was exactly this–connections. Moreover, there were no enemies in businesses and profit was the utmost priority.

Sonia smiled. “I perceive your sincerity, Mr.

King, but I’ve already signed the contract with Rentoor. If I have other overseas orders in the future, I’ll definitely go to you first.”

Hearing that, Paul heaved a sigh and continued chatting with Sonia and Charles for a while more before leaving.

After Paul had left, Charles asked Sonia,

“I’ve tried contacting Rentoor before this too but to no avail. How did you manage to contact their boss?”

“Zane referred me to him.”

Then, Sonia told Charles about the event where they played cards at Sakura Heights, and that Zane referred her to

Rentoor after that After hearing that, Charles sighed. “If we had known that Zane has such a connection, you could have taught Mr.

King and the others a lesson when you guys were playing cards at Sakura Heights. Teach them a lesson so that they

won’t dare to play cards with you anymore.”

Sonia smiled. “Mr. King and the others are pretty good at playing cards.”

She had not played cards ever since she got married to Toby. After some time, besides Charles and a few others, many people thought Sonia didn’t know how to play cards. The last time she played with Paul and the others was the first time she played cards after six years.

You‘re too humble!” Charles rolled his eyes at Sonia and teased her, “We grew up together. Of course I know how good you are at playing cards. Even your father couldn’t beat you, let alone others.”

Because of Charles’ remark, Sonia was reminded of her father who committed suicide, and she felt terrible. “Let’s go. I’ll buy you dinner.”

Just as she stood up and wore her coat,

her phone started ringing.

her phone started ringing.

“Hello?”

“Is this Miss Sonia Reed? Your brother is at our police station now. Please come over immediately.” A lady’s solemn voice emerged from the other end of the line.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 24

When Sonia was on the way to Sakura Heights, it suddenly rained, and it got considerably heavier.

When she arrived at Sakura Heights,

there was no more space in the underground parking, so she could only park in the open-air parking lot. Then,

as she got out of the car, she found that there was no umbrella in the car,

so she had to cover her head with her bag and rush in while gritting her teeth.

The path was very close to the hall, but because of the heavy rain, Sonia still got wet, and her whole body was trembling when the cold wind blew.

When the waiter saw Sonia, he immediately brought her a towel.

“Thank you.” Sonia dried her hair with the towel and spoke to the waiter. “It’s Friday, so business should be good,

right? Are Mr. King and the rest still playing poker in the private room?”

When the waiter heard this, he thought she was Paul’s friend. “Yes. Private room 1103 is always reserved for Mr.

King.”

After successfully tricking him, the corners of Sonia’s mouth curled up slightly When the waiter left, Sonia went to the front desk and ordered a pot of top “What’s wrong?”

Toby retracted his gaze and answered lightly. “It’s nothing.”

Sonia didn’t know that Toby was here as well, so she brought the tea into the private room with a smile on her face.

Sonia scanned the place and saw a vintage style room. Four men were sitting at a table playing cards and chatting. It felt uncomfortable,

because two of the bosses had young girls by their sides.

She had read Dwells’ information before, so in no time, she managed to identify Dwells’ boss among the four “What’s wrong?”

Toby retracted his gaze and answered lightly, “It’s nothing.”

Sonia scanned the place and saw a vintage-style room. Four men were sitting at a table playing cards and chatting. It felt uncomfortable,

She had read Dwells’ information before, so in no time, she managed to identify Dwells’ boss among the four men. She walked over and greeted, “Mr. King.”

Paul, who was playing cards, glanced sideways at Sonia. “Oh, who are you?”

“I’m Sonia Reed from Paradigm Co.,”

Sonia said with a smile while setting the tea and pastries down on the small table.

“I came here this afternoon to meet a friend. He played cards with you before and praised your skills. I figured the two of us have business dealings, so I

came over to say hello to you. Am | bothering all of you?”

Paul gave her a vague answer and continued playing, while the man sitting on the south side of the table asked, “Is your father Henry Reed?”

“I’m familiar with your father. I’ve played with him before. He’s really good,” the man, Chester Yancey, said. He glanced at Sonia from top to bottom, his gaze somewhat ambiguous Sonia ignored his gaze that was making her uncomfortable, then replied with a smile, “Yes, my father’s card skills are indeed good. That’s why he’s able to play with all of you, Mr.

Yancey.”

While the two chatted, the men just finished playing a round of poker.

He got up and beckoned Sonia over. “My waist hurts a little bit after playing one round. Come and play for me, darling.”

Sonia appeared embarrassed. “Mr. Yancey, I don’t know how to play.”

*Your father’s skills are so good, so how bad can you be?” The man continued to wave her over. “Come here. If you really don’t know, I’ll teach you.”

Paul spoke up as well. “You can play on Mr. Yancey’s behalf. If you really don’t want to play, then leave. Don’t spoil the fun.”

Sonia could hear the dissatisfaction in Paul’s statements.

Lately, Paradigm Co. was on the verge of collapse, so capitalists all looked down upon them and refused to buy their shares. Dwells figured that only

they could produce Paradigm Co.’s foreign goods, so Sonia would definitely beg him, which was why he was being so arrogant now.

She came here today to beg Dwells, so she was willing to suffer any grievances.

Sonia suddenly relaxed the hand that had been holding tightly onto her bag, then she got up and went to sit at Chester’s place. With a shallow smile, she said, “Mr. Yancey, if you don’t mind, I’ll play one round for you, I’ll handle the losses if I lose, but if I win, the money will be yours.”

Chester smiled with satisfaction, then sat down next to Sonia before patting her on the shoulder. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll teach you.”

Sonia turned her body to the other side, discreetly avoiding Chester’s hand.

Soon, another round of the game began Chester glanced at Sonia’s cards, which were in a mess. Seeing how randomly she was throwing down her

cards, he figured she really couldn’t play, but he didn’t give her any advice.

Instead, he chatted with Paul and instinctively placed his hand on the back of Sonia’s chair.

Even though Sonia was there, the several men spoke unscrupulously. They talked about everything, and the topic would occasionally be a little

indecent.

As they spoke, the topic turned to Sonia’s marriage with Toby.

Despite knowing the answer, Chester asked, “Darling, why did you and President Fuller get a divorce our of nowhere? How many hundreds of millions worth of his property did you “We weren’t getting along well, so we got divorced.” Sonia pressed her lips together, then quickly replied, “The

Fuller Group is President Fuller’s property, so how would I possibly be eligible to get anything? After getting divorced, I left the marriage with nothing.”

“President Fuller really doesn’t know how to conduct himself,” Chester said regretfully, then looked unscrupulously mt Sonia. “You’d slept with him for at least six years. Yet now that you’re divorced, he won’t even give you any compensation.”

Sonia released an inward sheer.

Toby doesn‘t know how to conduct himself? In fact, he‘s too good at it. In his heart, there‘s only Tina. Throughout the six years of marriage, he had never

once touched me.

If she admitted this out loud, everyone would probably laugh at her.

Sonia suppressed that emotion and smiled while answering Chester, “It’s not like I don’t have anything. I still have Paradigm Co., which my father

left for me. Mr. Yancey, you and my Father are old friends, so I might need to trouble you to help me more in the future.

Chester laughed. “Okay. Since you’ve already mentioned it, what reason could I have to not help you?”

Sonia’s card skills were truly poor, and she was repeatedly defeated by the others.

Before one round was over, the pile of cash she took out from her bag was all gone.

When she arrived, she had gotten drenched by a little rain, so the thin hali-wet. Not to mention, all the men were smoking, and the windows were wide open, so cold wind was gushing in. After the wind blew on her for a while, she felt a little light-headed, but she was forcibly enduring it.

Chester noticed that Sonia’s fingers were slender and fair, so he moved his chair closer to hers and placed his hand on top of hers. “Play this card.

Oh, darling, your hands are so cold.”

While he said that, Chester took the opportunity to touch Sonia’s hand a couple more times Sonia wanted to withdraw her hand,

but Chester held on tightly.

He inched closer to Sonia, then coaxed her, “President Fuller doesn’t know how to dote on people, but I do. If you need help with anything, just let me know.

You must want Dwells to work on your company’s overseas order, right? I’ll talk to Paul later and get him to sign the contract with you!”

Sonia was already uncomfortable, so when she smelled the stench of smoke and sweat on his body, her stomach churned.

She had been enduring it since she came in, but she couldn’t bear it anymore.

Sonia forcefully pulled her hand out,

then moved her chair before saying in a cold tone. “Mr. Yancey, I can’t play like this.”

Chester was taken aback, then his face sank and he snapped, “Darling, what’s going on? I was going to put in a good word with Paul to help your company,

but now you’re shunning me?”

“I don’t think you want to help me. You just want to sleep with me, don’t you?”

Sonia unveiled his hypocritical mask.

“As far as your company is concerned, you don’t have any money to save you. It’s only a matter of time before you go bankrupt,” Chester sneered. “I quite pity you. After six years of marriage with President Fuller, he didn’t even help you Save Paradigm Co.”

Chester’s remarks were getting increasingly unbridled. “Tell me. Now, besides using your beauty, where else can you get connections and money to

save Paradigm Co.?”

Sonia had already grabbed the teapot on the small table and was about to smash it to smithereens against Chester’s head when suddenly, there

was a knock on the door of the private room before it was pushed open..

Paul was about to ask Sonia to leave,

but as soon as he looked up, he saw the tall figure at the door and immediately stood up from his seat.

Paul was about to ask Sonia to leave, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the tall figure at the door and immediately stood up from his seat.

“President Fuller.”

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 25

President Fuller?

Sonia looked at the door of the private room, just in time to meet Toby’s cold gaze. After just one second, she averted her eyes and released the teapot in her hand.

“President Fuller, why are you here?” Chester, who was sitting next to Sonia, stood up and asked politely.

The men in the private room were all one generation older than Toby-some even two-but Toby’s power in the

industry was obvious to everyone.

Coupled with the fact that the Fuller Group was currently at the peak of their power, they wouldn’t dare get into a public dispute with Toby.

Toby shot Sonia a glance, then walked in and said in his deep voice, “I heard that you were here playing cards, Mr.

King, so I came to say hello.”

“It’s Friday today. It’s fine. Come and play some cards.” As opposed to the arrogance he displayed in front of

Sonia, at this moment, he was speaking to Toby with a smile. “It just so happened that President Reed came to talk about the order of the goods, so she stayed to play a few rounds with us.”

Chester smiled and chimed in. “That’s right. I’m friends with Sonia’s father, He’s very good at playing cards, but she must be rather unlucky, because she keeps losing.”

The other two bosses muttered a few words in agreement as well, then they took the opportunity to exchange

business cards with Toby.

Meanwhile, Sonia was silently fiddling with her cards.

After receiving the business cards from the two men, Toby strode toward Paul and said blankly, “You guys carry

on playing. I’ll just watch.”

Paul understood the man’s actions as soon as he saw it, so he immediately gave up his seat.

Toby pulled out the chair and sat down.

It was only at such a close distance did he notice that Sonia’s turtleneck was wet, and a little bit of hair was sticking

to her fair neck.

“Cough, cough!” While she was playing,

Sonia suddenly coughed twice.

Toby felt the chill, then saw that the window was wide open, so he went over and closed it before calling the

waiter over and instructing, “Bring me a blanket.”

Paul and the rest’s expressions changed when they saw the way Taby However, Sonila turned a blind eye and

ear to Toby and his words. After arranging her cards, she threw one out.

In no time, the waiter delivered the blanket.

“Thank you, but I’m not cold.” Sonia politely accepted the blanket, then stuffed it behind her chair before continuing with the game.

Seeing how stubborn she was being, Toby frowned and felt annoyed.

This woman had never even been in the business circle before, yet she dared to come here and play cards with a bunch of cunning old foxes. Isn’t she afraid of being eaten alive?

Perhaps it was because Toby was there-or perhaps because everyone in the private room knew about his relationship with Sonia-the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became very harmonious,

and no one talked about anything indecent Paul and the others even quietly fed Sonia good cards.

How could Sonia not know the true nature of these people? Letting out inward sneers, she pretended not to understand their actions and continued to throw down random cards.

The cards in her hand got worse and worse. The men wanted to win, but they didn’t dare do so.

Toby saw Sonia coughing a few more times, and his brows furrowed even more. When she was about to play a card, he leaned over, then took another card and threw it out.

When Sonia caught a whiff of the cold scent from the man’s body, she grew even more lightheaded, so she leaned

back.

Afterward, Toby basically picked cards for Sonia and laid them down,

Paul glanced at Toby, then said to Sonia almost apologetically. “A few days ago, an old customer of mine suddenly placed an order, and I didn’t inform the commerce department before signing with him. It’s only today that I learned that your company urgently needs the foreign goods, President Reed. I’m really sorry. I’ll call the commerce department later, and I’ll sign the contract at 9.00AM tomorrow.

I’ll definitely ask the factory to produce your goods as soon as possible.”

Since Paul was showing such kindness, Sonia accepted it. “Then, I’ll have to trouble you with it, Mr. King.

Couah, cough.”

Cough, cough…

Seeing how badly she was coughing, to the point where her cheeks were slightly flushed, Toby felt even more agitated. He pulled out the blanket from behind her chair and was about to wrap it around her, but Sonia noticed it and suddenly stood up to avoid contact with him.

“President Fuller, Mr. King, I still have things waiting for me to deal with at the office. You guys continue playing. Today’s bill is on me.”

With that, Sonia picked up her bag and left.

Her high heels made crisp clattering sounds on the tiles, and her slender figure quickly disappeared outside the door of the private room.

Chester was unbothered as he watched Sonia leave. While he played, he issued Toby with an invitation.

“President Fuller, there’ll be a cocktail party at 7.00PM tomorrow. Do you have time to attend and have a taste of

some good wine?”

“I’m not free tomorrow night,” Toby answered simply as he drew a card,

but he didn’t look at it as he stood up.

He glanced at Paul and the several other people at the table. His gaze was extremely sharp, and his voice was deep. “No matter how bad my ex-wife’s card skills are, no one can bully her. Mr. Yancey, don’t you agree?”

“Y-Yes.” Chester forced a smile. “President Fuller, you’ve misunderstood. We didn’t bully Miss Reed.”

“Mr. Yancey, regarding your plan to build a resort in the Northern District,

I’ve read the proposal, and I’m not interested.” Toby threw the cards on to the table, then stated with a blank

expression, “Mr. Yancey, go find a new partner.”

The man then picked up his coat and strode off.

Paul uncovered Toby’s cards and was shocked when he saw them. “Sonia’s cards were so bad, but after President Fuller took over, he was able to get winning cards…”

Meanwhile, Chester seemed paralysed in his seat, as if his soul had left his body. “Aren’t they divorced?”

That‘s right The few of them exchanged confused looks with each other.

Everyone knew that Toby’s marriage with Sonia was completely ruined, but anyone would be able to discern that

Toby was protecting his ex-wife just now.

When Sonia left the private room, she saw that it was still raining, so she went to the front desk to ask for an umbrella.

Not only was it raining heavily outside,

it was also cold. As the cold wind blew on her, her coughing got even more severe. When she reached the front of

the car and was about to open the car door, her wrist was tightly grabbed.

When Toby felt how cold the woman’s hands were, his eyes darkened, “You can’t drive like this. I’ll send you back.

“President Fuller, let go,” Sonia tried hard to pull her hand out while saying coldly: “Even if I can’t drive, I can call for a driver. You don’t need to bother about mel”

In the past, Sonia was docile and virtuous, and she never spoke like this.

Now, when she called him “President Fuller”, it sounded piercing.

“Sonia, we’re just divorced. I’m not your enemy.” Toby summoned his patience to talk to her. “You can tell me if you

need anything. There’s no need to suffer by coming here to play cards with Mr. King and the rest.”

Curling her lips, Sonia sneered.

“Compared to the grievances I suffered during our marriage, what happened today were trivial matters.”

At this moment, Sonia’s phone rang.

Ignoring Toby, she took out her phone and saw that it was Charles calling, so she quickly answered the phone. “Hey,

are you done settling your company’s business?”

“Not yet. I went to Norfolk for a business trip. I won’t be back until next Wednesday.”

“Okay. That’s fine. Settle your affairs first,” Sonia replied, then lowered her head and coughed. “Dwells will sign

the contract with us tomorrow.”

“Didn’t I say that I’d deal with it after i return? Did they bully you?”

“Yeah.”

Toby was standing next to her, so even though the call wasn’t on speakerphone, he could vaguely hear their conversation.

He watched as Sonia brazenly behaved coquettishly with Charles, and she even asked him to go to a branded

store to bring two new items back.

Compared to the docile person she was before, she was a completely different person, which caused an insuppressible sense of irritation to rise in Toby’s heart.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 26

Standing beside the car, Sonia talked on the phone in the cold wind. She felt a little dizzy, and her feet swayed.

Toby’s gaze darkened, then he calmly took the phone from Sonia’s hand and hung up before picking her up and walking to the other side of the car.

Being lifted into the air all of a sudden,

Sonia was shocked, and the umbrella nearly flew out of her hand. She panicked and grabbed the man’s shirt with one hand as her face grew slightly cold.

“Toby, let me down!”

Ignoring her, Toby opened the passenger door and stuffed her into the car.

*President Fuller, are you done creating trouble?” Watching as the man tugged on her seatbelt, Sonia snapped coldly, “I can find a driver. You don’t need to care about me!”

During their six years of marriage, Toby never cared about her. The two had only had a handful of conversations. But, after their divorce, she and Toby had met several times in just a few days.

When did Seafield become so small?

Toby noticed the discomfort and stubborness on her face, and annoyance filled his heart. “The weather is so bad. Even if you order for a substitute driver, no One will take vour order.”

“It’s my business whether I get one or not.”

“Sonia.” Toby leaned closer to her. His cold breath enveloped her, and his eyes were cold and sullen. “Do you have to be so stubborn?”

There wasn’t much space in the car, so Sonia had nowhere to hide when he approached her.

Her face grew chilly. She was about to speak, but she accidentally glanced behind the man’s back and found that he couldn’t hold the umbrella when he carried her in to the car. It was raining heavily outside, so most of his back was wet.

Sonia’s heart gave a fierce shudder, and the words she was about to say died in her mouth as she quickly looked awav.

Toby cast her a glance before continuing to pull the seat belt across her. However,

because he was too close, his fingers accidentally rubbed against her heaving chest.

Both of them froze.

Sonia was the first to react. She pulled the seat belt from his hand and inserted it in tothe buckle.

Toby’s Adam’s apple bobbed. I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay. I know you didn’t mean to do it, President Fuller.” Sonia thought about what Chester said when they were playing

cards just now, and she couldn’t help but taunt him. “President Fuller, you’re a rare ‘saint” that’s only seen once every thousand vears!”

Met with the woman’s cold remarks, Toby frowned, but he quickly got into the driver’s seat and started the engine.

Toby asked, “Where do you live?”

“Bayside Residence,” Sonia answered stonily, then looked out the window and rested her chin on her hands.

Neither of them spoke again. Silence filled the car, the only sound was the slight swiping of the wipers.

Sonia had been exposed to the rain, so she was feeling very uncomfortable.

Now that the heater was blowing hot wind,

the cold was replaced with heat. After a while, she grew groggy and fell asleep in

the car.

They soon arrived at Bayside Residence, but Toby didn’t know which building Sonia lived in. Seeing how flushed her face was, he figured she had caught a cold, so he looked for a drugstore along the road and got down to buy a box of flu medicine.

“Sonia.” Toby patted the woman on the cheek. “Have some flu medicine.”

After calling her several times, Sonia still didn’t respond, but she coughed a few times. Hence, he took the medicine, then pinched her jaw and forced the medicine into her mouth.

Sonia’s lips were a bit cold, but very soft. It felt a little seductive, which made it difficult for Toby to control himself as he plunged deeper in.

All of a sudden, the phone on the car’s ammest vibrated.

Toby returned to his senses. His eyes scanned over Sonia‘s slightly swollen lips,

whereupon he realized what he had just done. His eyebrows twitched, then he answered the phone.

“Toby, have you finished discussing the collaboration?” Tina’s soft voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

“Yeah”

*Then come to the Outlet Mall to pick me and your mom up.” Tina said. “Madam White and I went shopping, but it suddenly started raining heavily. The driver went to school to fetch Tyler. He can’t make it, so I called you.”

Toby glanced at Sonia in the passenger seat, then replied in a low volce, “Okay. I’ll be there in 15 minutes.”

“Be careful on the road.”

There was a faint fragrance in the car, which was the smell of the perfume Sonia usually used. The more Toby smelled it, the more troubled he felt.

Taking an umbrella, he got out of the car and called Tom to inform him that he was at the south entrance of Bayside

Residence About five minutes later, Tom arrived.

“President Fuller.” Tom came over with some clothes. He was a little surprised to See Toby standing beside the car, then he took a look at the car behind him.

Hey, isn‘t that Miss Reed‘s car?

Toby took the clothes and the car keys, then glanced at the car behind him with a knowing gaze. “Drive her car and bring her to the Sheraton Hotel, then ask the attendant to take her temperature.”

“Okay.” Tom replied without asking any questions.

Toby drove to the Outlet Mall, occasionally thinking of Sonia’s stubborn appearance and her soft lips, which disturbed him,

He lowered the windows of the car slightly and he felt better after being caressed by the cold wind.

After arriving at the Outlet Mall, Toby quickly spotted Tina and Jean standing at the entrance, both carrying several

shopping bags.

He took an umbrella and got out of the car, then hurriedly walked over. “It’s so cold. Why didn’t you wait inside?”

Upon seeing him approach, a slight smile appeared at the comers of Tina‘s lips.

“Madam White and I just came out, and Surprisingly, you arrived at the same time.”

Reside her. Jean Snickered, “Who said we just came out? Tina knew that you were coming, so she wanted to come out to wait for you! Don’t look at what she bought. All she bought for herself was a coat. The rest are clothes for you.”

“Madam White.” Tina blushed a little after being exposed. “If you say anything more, Toby will think I’m not reserved at all.”

“Oh, we’re all family. Why are you still being so polite and calling me Madam White?”

Hearing this, Tina blushed even more.

“It’s cold outside. Let’s get into the car first,” Toby urged while taking the shopping bags from Tina’s hand and covering her head with the umbrella,

After Tina got in the car, he went to fetch Jean.

After getting in the car, Jean said, “Tina, look at how well Toby takes care of you. He brought you into the car first before coming to fetch me, his own mother. How biased. I think when you really get married, he won’t care about me anymore.”

The grin on Tina’s face grew wider. Afraid that Jean would tease her again, she changed the subject and asked Toby. “Is this Tom’s car?”

“Yeah.” Toby’s eyes moved, then he said in a low voice, “Tom sent my car to 4S Automation for maintenance.”

“No wonder you’re picking me and Madam White up in his car.”

At this moment, Jean intervened, “I heard Tina say that you were talking to people at Sakura Heights about a cooperation, and you even bought some pastries for Tina. How many boxes did you buy? Let me try some.”

Toby had wanted to determine if the person in Paul’s private room was Sonia, and he left the place with her too

afterward.

He completely forgot to buy the pastries.

Toby said, “I was so busy discussing business matters that I forgot about it. I have the boss‘ phone number. I‘ll get them to send a few boxes home tomorrow.”

“Look at you. How forgetful,” Jena chided. “Tina was thinking about you while she was shopping. She bought plenty of stuff for you, but you even forgot to buy pastries for her.”

With that, she took Tina’s hand and said with a smile, Tina, have dinner at my house tonight. You’ve just recovered, so I’ll cook some soup for you to nourish your body.”

Tina gave her a small smile. “Thank you, Madam White.”

At this moment, the phone in her bag vibrated a few times.

After checking and seeing the content and picture in the message, the smile on her face froze.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 27

“Tina, what’s wrong?” Jean asked, as if sensing that there was something off about Tina’s expression.

Tina immediately locked her phone and said softly, “It’s nothing. My mother sent me a message asking when I’m going back. I’ll reply to her later.”

Jean didn’t suspect anything and turned to talk to Toby.

After making sure that Jean wasn’t looking at her, Tina picked up her phone again and read the message her friend had sent her.

This friend of hers was also playing cards at Sakura Heights today. She said that shew Toby and wanted to say hello, but she saw himchasing after Sonia. Then, the two of them sload by the car and chatted for a long time Tima turned off the volume before clicking on the video She saw Toby saying something to Sonia, then he picked her up and placed her in the driver’s seat of her car before driving away It was just a short ten-second video, but Tina felt chills all over her hands and feet as she held her phone in a firm squeeze.

Aren’t they divorced? Then why did Toby get into Sonia’s car? And why did he lie to me?

Tina remembered that at the banquet that night, Toby seemed to be on her side, but as soon as Sonia made the request, he gave her the Ocean’s Heart because he didn’t want to humiliate Sonia. And today’s video…

Tina felt a sense of panic in her heart. She was afraid that even though Toby and Sonia were divorced, Toby still wasn’t fully hers.

Could it be that she was destined to be unable to keep something she stole?

When Sonia woke up in the hotel, it was already the next morning.

She remembered being caught in the rain last night and catching a cold, but when she woke up, she felt refreshed.

Sonia soon remembered that Toby had driven her back to Bayside Residence yesterday afternoon. While she was still in a muddled state, she felt someone feeding her something…

Was it Toby?

Sonia banished the images from her mind, then quickly washed up before leaving the hotel.

After arriving at the office, Sonia called Daphne. “Dwells’ boss will come to the office to sign the contract later, so get the contract ready.”

Daphne was surprised. “President Reed,

you managed to seal the deal with Dwells?”

“Yeah. Although Sonia didn’t want to admit it, if it hadn’t been for Toby coming to the private room yesterday afternoon, Dwells boss wouldn’t have relented and taken on Paradigm Co.’s order.

She owed Toby a favor.

“Okay.” Daphne nodded, then quickly went to prepare the contract.

After taking off her coat, Sonia hung it on the hanger. Just as she was about to sit down and settle the documents Daphne had sent, the phone on her desk rang.

She answered, “Hello?”

“President Reed, a gentleman named Zane wants to see you,” the receptionist reported. “Do you know him?”

Sonia responded, “Send him up.”

Soon, there was a knock on the office door, and the receptionist led a man in.

The man was dressed in comfortable and loose casual clothing; his jet-black hair was thick with the ends slightly curling upward, and his facial features were so perfect that no flaws could be found. He was handsome and carried himself with ease and natural poise.

His narrow eyes swept nonchalantly across the office before finally landing on Sonia “President Reed, you adapt really well.” Zane walked toward the desk, then pulled out the chair and sat down. He began makina conversation with Sonia as if they making conversation with Sonia as if they were close friends. “You’ve only been in Paradigm Co, for a few days, but you already possess the spirit of a proper leader. I couldn’t tell that you’d been a housewife for six years.”

“I didn’t expect that the romantic and suave playboy who couldn’t refuse any women would turn out to be the youngest son of the mayor.” When it came to being sharp-tongued, Sonia was never weak.

Zane raised his eyebrows. “President Reed, I was complimenting you for finally being yourself, yet you’re insulting me?”

“I was praising you for being popular with the ladies.”

Zane knew that this woman looked gentle and dignified, but she was extremely good at talking. After adjusting his posture, he said, “I know that Paradigm Co. has an overseas order and wants Dwells’ factory to produce it, but I know a factor that’s even better at producing foreign goods.”

“Are you saying that you want to introduce resources to me?” Sonia looked at him in surprise. “Why?”

Zane shrugged, then spoke in a lazy and casual manner. “We have a business relationship, don’t we? If I have good

resources, of course I’ll introduce it to you.

Treat it as a personal favor!”

Sonia didn’t believe his nonsense. “Mr.

Coleman, we’ve only met once before, so we‘re not even close with each other, and another man. If I don’t get my revenge, I’d be a sorry excuse of a man…

Sonia looked at the woman in the photo. “Your girlfriend is very beautiful. I didn’t expect that there would come a day where you would get cheated on.”

Zane ignored the sympathetic look she was giving him. “Yeah. I can’t tolerate being cheated on! So, I want to take revenge on Dwells. No friend around me is allowed to cooperate with Dwells. You and I are partners, so of course, you can’t cooperate with them either. This standard of the foreign goods this factory produces is higher than Dwells’. Believe me.” Zane fiddled with his phone. “I’ll send you the number of the person in charge at Rentoor.”

“Rentoon?” Sonia was slightly shocked.

She knew about Rentoor Inc. They were a well-known factory in Norfolk. Because of its high quality, many foreign companies approached them to produce their goods.

She even heard that their production orders were scheduled until next year.

Initially, Sonia wanted to approach Rentoon too, but because she didn’t have any way to do it, she went for the second best option and chose Dwells.

“I’m very familiar with their business in Norfolk,” Zane explained. When he saw the box of mangoes by the table, he picked one up and peeled it before eating it. “Call him and talk to him first.”

Sonia immediately copied the number given by Zane before dialing it. The other party picked up fairly quickly.

Sonia knew the overseas order like the back of her hand, so her conversation with Rentoor’s commerce department went smoothly. It didn’t seem like she was a newbie who had just entered the industry at all; she spoke in such a clear and organized manner that even Zane was looking at her with admiration.

Finally, Rentoor’s staff told Sonia that after signing the contract, they could produce her goods within the time limit, but she needed to go to the factory on Thursday to have a look. The two parties would discuss again before going through with the contract After hanging up the phone, the burden in Sonia’s heart was lifted completely. “Zane, you’ve done me a huge favor.”

“As long as you don’t cooperate with Dwells, we’re friends.” Zane had finished eating a mango and was wiping his hands with a tissue. “Four Seasons Orchard has good mangoes this year. Did Toby send them?”

As Sonia thought of what happened yesterday afternoon, she frowned. “No.1 divorced him a long time ago, so I won’t

accept the things he sends. A childhood friend of mine bought these. You can bring them back if you like.”

“Really?” Zane raised an eyebrow and gave her a knowing look.

Sonia found the look he was giving her to be strange. After taking a look at the time, she got up and put on her coat. “Mr. Coleman, if you don’t have any plans for lunch, let me treat you to a meal.”

“Sure. Then I’ll have to pick the restaurant well.” Zane followed her out of the office.

“Sonia, you b*tch. Come here right now! | must teach you a proper lesson!”

As soon as Sonia came out, she heard the noises outside, and the voice was rather familiar. Looking up, she saw Jean

standing not far away from her. With her hands on her hips, she was screaming at Sonia at the top of her lungs.

There were emnloveee around her who There were employees around her who tried to throw her out, but they retreated after being scolded by Jean Sonia walked over in her high heels, then asked calmly, “Madam White, is something wrong?”

“You b*tch. You’re finally showing yourself!” When she saw Sonia, Jean became even angrier. She stalked toward Sonia in a rage, then raised her hand to slap Sonia.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 28

Sonia was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Fuller Family, so she did not have to bear with Jean anymore. She grasped Jean’s wrist forcefully and pushed her away which caught the latter completely off guard. Because of that, Jean lost her balance and fell onto the ground. Her image was ruined as she moaned in pain.

“Madam White, please mind your behavior;” Sonia said coldly, “If you’re going to start throwing hands, I will not

hesitate to do the same.”

Jean was boiling in anger. “Sonia, how dare you say that to me!”

Previously, when Sonia and Toby were still married, Sonia was extremely obedient to Jean and would never dare to talk back. However, she had changed completely after the divorce.

“I knew you were a b*tch! You have been putting up an act all this while to cotton up to me!” Jean scowled. Despite wearing an elegant dark blue dress, she looked shrewish with her ferocious expression.

“You’re the one who refused to take a single cent from Toby when you guys divorced! What is this attitude you’re giving me right now? Have you no shame?!”

“It’s true that I didn’t take money from Toby.” Sonia looked directly into Jean’s eyes.

“Why are you still pestering my son then?!” Jean snarled.

She then took out a stack of pictures from her handbag and distributed them to the staff who were watching, “Look at your boss. What a shameless woman. My son has already divorced her and even has a girlfriend now, but she still refuses to let

go of him. She just won’t stop pestering him!”

After distributing the pictures, Jean threw the remaining pictures at Sonia. “Take a look for yourself. How could you be so shameless to ask Toby to carry you into the car?!”

The pictures which Jean threw hit Sonia before landing on the ground. Sonia picked up a couple of them and saw Toby and her in them–she was talking to Tohv hecide in them-she was talking to Toby beside the car while holding an umbrella. Because the two of them were standing close to each other, it seemed as if she was hugging Toby. On the other hand, the second picture was the scene of Toby carrying her into the car.

Little did Sonia expect that someone had secretly captured pictures of Toby and her when they were at the car park yesterday afternoon.

Jean pointed at Sonia and continued to reprimand, “Tina’s father has apologized to you regarding the video, but you’re such an ungrateful brat! You do know that Tina likes mangoes, don’t you? And yet you dared to ask Toby to send mangoes to your company!”

Sonia was startled by Jean’s words. She didn’t know Tina liked mangoes and thought that the box of mangoes was from Charles. It turned out that it wasn’t the “I’m warning you, Sonia-you better stay away from my son! The reason Toby agreed to marry you six years ago was because of Tina. Otherwise, given your status, do you think you deserve to be with Toby?”

Seeing Sonia’s pale face, Zane quickly stood up to mediate. “Madam White, although Miss Reed and Toby have divorced, they are still friends. The pictures must be a misunderstanding, Why don’t you go back and ask Toby about it?”

“If she didn’t seduce Toby, why would he carry her into the car?” Jean questioned,

“Maybe Miss Reed was feeling unwell, and Toby merely helped her out of kindness. Madam White, this is Miss Reed’s office after all. You’ll put her in a difficult situation by causing such a scene,” Zane said politely However, Jean darted a glare at Zane and thereafter looked at Sonia with her eyes filled with contempt. Then, she sneered in a loud and sharp voice, “Ha! You’re really good at seducing men, Sonia. Not only did you seduce the model, but you won’t even

spare Toby’s friend!”

With that, Zane was rendered speechless.

Meanwhile, seeina how Jean was beina increasingly unreasonable, Sonia grabbed a cup of coffee from a staff’s table and splashed it toward Jean’s face. The coffee was still warm as it was splashed onto Jean’s face and her dress. Screaming, Jean quickly took some napkins to wipe the stains on her dress.

“You b*tch!” Jean almost wanted to tear Sonia into pieces when her favorite dress was stained. Nevertheless, before she could do anything, the securities had rushed up and held her down.

Sonia put the coffee cup back on the table and stared at Jean coldly. “President Fuller is a renowned man in the business circle. I hope that you will conduct yourself better,

Madam White, lest other people think President Fuller’s mother is a rude shrew.

Also, this is Paradigm Co.-my company.

Therefore, please make an appointment at the concierge if you would like to see me. If a situation like this happens again,

ask my lawyer to talk to you, Madam White.”

Before Jean could blow up, Sonia ordered the two securities, “Madam White here has disrupted everyone’s work. Please send her out.”

“Let go of me! I’m going to kill this b*tch!”

Jean was still cursing Sonia as she was dragged out by the securities, and she looked like a shrew indeed.

Meanwhile, the staff sensibly dismissed themselves and went back to their desks to work.

“My apologies, Mr. Coleman.” Sonia smiled faintly while wiping the coffee stain which spattered onto her sleeve.

Thereafter, the two went into the lift. Zane couldn’t stop glancing at Sonia as he rubbed his chin with his slender fingers and commented, “I realize you’ve changed a lot after divorcing Toby”

Before Toby and Sonia had divorced, Zane had gone to the Fullers’ residence a few times and had seen the way Jean treated Sonia like a servant, ordering her about. On the other hand, Sonia would always obey her commands in a servile manner. As such, Zane was very surprised to see Sonia’s domineering stance today when she splashed coffee at Jean and taught her a lesson.

“Yeah. Thanks to Toby,” Sonia said in sarcasm.

She married Toby six years ago because she loved him. She had been an obedient daughter-in-law and served the Fullers while bearing with Jean’s scolding and unreasonableness, thinking that by doing so, Toby would be moved and fall in love with her.

Nonetheless, it was only later on did she realize it was just her wishful thinking.

There was already someone else in Toby’s heart, so no matter how she loved him humbly and wholeheartedly, she wouldn’t be able to capture his heart.

“It’s not a bad thing that you guys divorced. I reckon no woman will dare to marry into the Fullers aiven Madam

White’s character.” Zane freaked out at the thought of Jean’s fierce look. Toby is amazing for not being psychologically distorted having a mother like this.” Then, he changed the topic and asked Sonia, “The model seems pretty decent. When do you guys plan to get married?”

Sonia wasn’t that close with Zane and thought she didn’t have to tell him everything, so she answered, “Carl is quite

busy and has gone on a business trip overseas.”

Hearing that, Zane perceived that the two were indeed dating, and he hummed in response.

When the lift arrived on the ground floor, a message came into Zane’s phone. He glanced at it and turned to Sonia. “Miss Reed, I’ll take a rain check on the lunch as I have some matters to attend to.” “Sure.” Sonia nodded and sent Zane out of the company After arriving at Majestique, Zane found the private room and entered it. Seeing that Toby was already here, Zane said immediately. “Your mother was making a scene at Paradigm Co. just now.”

Toby frowned. “What did she do?”

“Sigh. It’s because of the person who took pictures of you carrying Sonia into the car.”

Zane sat down and poured himself a cup of tea. “I have no idea how she got those pictures. She went to find Sonia in her company and scolded her for being shameless and seducing you even alier you guys are divorced.”

Zane continued asking with interest, What’s going on? Are you the one seducing Sonia?”

“No.” Toby shot Zane a cold glance and explained in a displeased tone, “She wasn’t feeling well after being caught in the rain yesterday afternoon. I was worried that she would cause a car accident if she drove, so I decided to send her back, but she was stubborn and insisted on getting a temporary driver.”

“She’s right. She could have just gotten a driver. Question is, why were you, her ex husband, worried about her?” Zane tutted.

“Thanks to your ‘kind act, your mother went to Paradigm Co. and called Sonia “She’s right. She could have just gotten a driver. Question is, why were you, her ex husband, worried about her?” Zane tutted, “Thanks to your ‘kind act, your mother went to Paradigm Co. and called Sonia names in front of all her colleagues.”

Upon hearing that, Toby was rendered speechless.

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 29

Zane ignored the gloomy face Toby was giving and asked again, “Also, why did you ask someone to send mangoes to Paradigm Co.7”

Toby furrowed his brows. “I didn’t.”

Toby’s face darkened even more after Zane explained how Jean scolded Sonia because of the matter about the mangoes.

Then, he quickly called Four Seasons Orchard to look into it.

After looking into the matter, the person-in charge quickly apologized, “I’m sorry.

President Fuller, the delivery man wasn’t aware of your divorce and thought Miss Reed was still your wife, so he delivered the mangoes to Miss Reed’s company instead. My sincere apologies about that.”

Toby had put his phone on speaker, so Zane–who was sitting across from him–heard the content too. “Oh, poor Sonia. She was wrongly accused by your mother.”

Feeling vexed, Toby rubbed his eyebrows.

He had never thought that someone would have the guts to secretly take pictures of him at Sakura Heights. Besides that, he had not expected that the mangoes would be delivered wrongly, which caused Jean to confront Sonia at Paradigm Co.

After waiting for the waiter to serve the dishes and walk out, Toby asked Zane, “Has Sonia talked with the person-in

charge from Rentoon?”

“Yeah, She’s going to visit Rentoor’s factory on Thursday.”

Zane even praised Sonia. “I think even if you didn’t give Rentoor a heads-up, they will still be willing to collaborate with Sonia given her eloquence. Although she has just entered the business circle, she’s a fast learner, and that is really something.”

“You think so? All of a sudden, Toby felt like it wasn’t that he didn’t know Sonia well enough, but he just had not paid attention to her at all.

After having married Sonia for six years, all he could remember was the scene of Sonia being busy at home. As a

responsible wife, she would prepare charge from Rentoon?”

Yeah, She’s going to visit Rentoor’s factory on Thursday.”

Zane even praised Sonia. “I think even if you didn’t give Rentoor a heads-up, they will still be willing to collaborate with Sonia given her eloquence. Although she has just entered the business circle, she’s a fast learner, and that is really something.”

“You think so?* All of a sudden, Toby felt like it wasn’t that he didn’t know Sonia well enough, but he just had not paid attention to her at all.

After having married Sonia for six years, all he could remember was the scene of Sonia being busy at home. As a

responsible wife, she would prepare delicious dinners for him and iron his clothes.

Toby had never expected that besides doing house chores, Sonia was outstanding in other aspects too.

Zane shrugged. “You’ll understand when you see it for yourself next time. Your ex wife is really something. But I don’t understand, Toby. Isn’t Paradigm Co. going to sign a contract with Dwells soon? Why did you still introduce Rentoor to them?”

Zane asked. “You would owe Rentoor a favor by doing so, and Rentoor would surely bother you to return this favor in the future.”

“This overseas order is very important for Paradigm Co., which is currently very unstable,” Toby replied indifferently while eating. “Dwells is good at dealing with overseas orders, but Rentoor is even better, and they are more well-known than Dwells. If Paradigm Co. can establish a long-term collaboration with Rentoor, they won’t have to go look for orders as the business with Rentoor will be profitable enough.”

“Did I hear it right? Toby, are you helping your ex-wife to build connections?” Zane rubbed his chin.

Toby remained silent for a moment and said nonchalantly, “She did not ask for anything when we divorced. I’m doing so as compensation to her.”

*This compensation is too stingy. She has stayed with your family for six years.

Having been ordered around by your mother every day for six years straight–if I were Sonia, even a billion is too little of a compensation.” Zane chuckled.

Before Zane could finish teasing Toby, the latter suddenly put down the cutlery and grabbed his blazer on the back of his chair.

“I’m heading back to the office.”

Seeing Toby walk out, Zane yelled, “I’m just spitting facts. Did that bother you, Toby?”

As a response to him, Toby flung the door closed with a loud bang.

“Go ahead and fling it. I don’t have to pay for any damage caused anyway.” Zane shrugged and summoned the waiter to order more food Some staff of Paradigm Co, had secretly recorded the video of Jean causing a scene in the company, and that particular video had spread across the business circle.

Everyone was surprised that Toby, who was resolute and honorable in the business circle, actually had such a

ferocious mother. Meanwhile, some thought Sonia was too much for treating her ex-mother-in-law that way after

watching the second half of the video which had been deliberately edited.

Some even came up with theories that Sonia had already been together with the model from Vashine Entertainment long ago, and that Toby had divorced her upon finding out her betrayal.

All sorts of conspiracy theories started going around the business circle.

Nonetheless, Sonia couldn’t bother less about the rumors. After settling the agendas in the company, she went to Norfolk on Thursday. Rentoor’s factory occupied a large area in Norfolk After Sonia greeted Rentoor’s boss, she followed him to visit the production line, to observe how the overseas goods were made and to inspect the final products. Both of them negotiated from lunch at noon till 2 in the afternoon. Finally, they came to an agreement and the contract was signed by both parties.

Sonia wore a relaxed smile the moment she saw Rentoor’s stamp sealed on the contract. She then shook hands with

Rentoor’s boss. “I’ll count on you for the orders then. The New Year is coming soon M’ll ask my secretary to send some gifts to you and the staff later.”

“No problem. You’re too kind, President Reed.”

Later, Sonia turned down the boss’ invite for dinner and bought a plane ticket at 3 P.M. It was 4.30 P.M. when she arrived back at Seafield.

While walking along the boarding bridge, a passerby who was walking in a rush beside Sonia accidentally bumped into her,

causing her to almost lose grip of her phone.

“I’m sorry.”

Seeing that the other party had apologized,

Sonia didn’t think it was necessary to make a fuss. She quickly picked up the scarf from the floor and passed it to the person. Just then, the person lifted her head and Sonia realized it was someone she knew, so she greeted her politely, “Hi, Mrs. Gray. What a coincidence.”

Julia‘s originally gentle-looking face darkened when she saw Sonia.

Without thanking her, Julia quickly grabbed her scarf and said coldly, “We‘re having dinner with Toby’s parents tonight to decide the date for Toby and Tina’s engagement. Miss Reed, since you’ve already divorced Toby, please stay away from him.”

Hearing that, Sonia smirked slightly. “I’m so sorry. If it wasn’t that I asked President Fuller for the Ocean’s Heart, he and Miss Gray would have been engaged long ago.”

“You!” Julia glared at Sonia with a sullen look.

“Don’t worry. Mrs. Gray. I’ve never regretted any of my decisions and will definitely not get back with President Fuller. He and Tina are a good match.” With that, Sonia brushed past Julia and walked away resolutely Initially, Julia wanted to give Sonia a warning, but she was irritated by her in return. With a gloomy expression, she walked out of the airport with her luggage and coincidentally saw Sonia talking to her secretary. Sonia’s side profile caught Julia’s attention when the former was getting into the car as she thought it looked rather familiar. Julia gazed fixedly at Sonia’s car until it disappeared from her sight.

“Honey.” Titus walked over in a hurry and took the luggage from Julia. “Sorry I’m late. The traffic was terrible.”

Seeing as she was ignoring him, Titus asked, “What happened?”

“N-Nothing.” Julia retracted her gaze and walked to the car with Titus while asking him, “Where are we going for dinner?”

Titus opened the door to the backseat and escorted Julia in. “At Sheraton Hotel under Fuller Group. It’s just a dress you could’ve asked someone to send it here. Why bother to go all the way to Norfolk to get it? That’s too tiring.”

*This is Tina‘s favorite dress, and she wants to wear it tonight. I was worried that the others would be careless and ruin it.

She has to be at her best appearance tonight when having dinner with Toby’s family,” Julia replied.

“Yes, yes. I know you love Tina. Let’s go.”

After getting into the car, Julia realized there was a bouquet of baby’s breath at the other end of the seat. Her smile

disappeared at once as a complicated look spread across her face.

After Titus got into the car, his eyes turned dim when he saw Julia holding the look spread across her face.

After Titus got into the car, his eyes turned dim when he saw Julia holding the bouquet of flowers.

“It’s Rina’s death anniversary today.”

Boss Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 30

“Yeah… It’s Rina’s death anniversary today.

Julia’s hands–which were holding the bouquet of baby’s breath–trembled as she was reminded of her eldest daughter who had passed away at a young age. In the end, she couldn’t help but start to cry.

As she was too heartbroken upon losing her eldest daughter, Julia placed all of her attention on the youngest daughter,

However, she would still feel her heart wrench every year during Rina’s death anniversary “There, there. Let’s not cry.” Titus embraced Julia and cooed, “Today’s not only Rina’s death anniversary, but it’s also Tina’s engagement day. I’m sure Rina would be happy for her sister if she knew Tina is getting engaged.”

Julia was crying so hard that she could even feel her chest hurting. “If it wasn’t for Henry the b*stard, Rina w-wouldn‘t have…”

Julia sobbed in a choking voice.

Titus’ eyes darkened. “The Reed Family has already been destroyed, and Sonia is the only one left.”

Six years ago, Titus had driven Henry to death and ruined the Reeds in order to avenge his elder daughter’s death.

However, he couldn’t lay a finger on Sonia because she had already married Toby at that time. Little did Titus expect that six years later, Sonia would acquire Paradigm Los shares and become the biggest shareholder of the company.

“All Sonia has is Paradigm Co. and nothing else. Dealing with her is going to be a piece of cake.” Titus was heartbroken at the thought of his deceased daughter, and his hatred toward the Reeds deepened even more.

On the other hand, Julia was hesitant. “Forget about it. She’s Toby’s ex-wife after all. If Toby becomes aware of this, I’m worried it would cause Tina trouble in the future.”

Titus shorted. “Don’t you know why Toby married Sonia? He doesn’t love her at all. If he did, he wouldn’t just sit back and watch the downfall of the Reeds, and he surely wouldn’t just watch Paradigm Co, slip away from him like that.”

“Stop worrying about this matter and leave it to me. Rina had fallen in love with the crown at first sight back then. Ask Tina for it later and keep it well lest Tina should give it away again.”

Julia nodded and stared at the bouquet sorrowfully On the other hand, Sonia planned to head back to the office to settle a few urgent documents before going home to rest. The moment she arrived at the office, her secretary informed her, “President Reed,

Mr. King from Dwells is here and is now chatting with Mr. Lane in his office.”

Sonia smirked coldly. “I see. I’ll go and take a look.”

Last Friday when they were playing cards at Sakura Heights, Paul had said that he would send someone to bring the contract to Paradigm Co the next day to sign it, but no one came in the end. Sonia wasn’t a fool; she knew Paul wanted to string her along and wait for her to call Dwells on her own. Fortunately, thanks to Zane, she had found a better business partner for Paradigm Co.

Sonia knocked on Charles’ door and entered his office. Seeing that Charles was making small talk with Paul, she walked up to them and smiled as she greeted Paul,

“Hi Mr. King, it’s been a while.”

“Hi, President Reed.” Paul stood up and politely shook Sonia’s hand.

After sitting down, Sonia sipped her tea and did not bring up the matter about their collaboration Seeing so, Paul had no choice but to bring it up. “I’m so sorry. President Reed. For the past few days, I was so busy I couldn’t make it over to sign the contract. I’m here today to make an apology.”

With that, he presented the contract to Sonia and said, “Please take a look at the contract and we can sign it if there’s no other issue.”

Charles frowned and wanted to say something, but Sonia gave him a look and gestured to him to refrain from speaking.

Then, she said to Paul, “Mr. King, my secretary told me that she tried contacting you via your office number before this but couldn’t reach you. Because it’s an urgent order and we couldn’t afford to delay. I’ve already contacted another company to handle it.”

“President Reed, my company is the top manufacturer in the country for overseas orders. You claimed that you value the quality of the product, but how could you end up engaging a below-par manufacturer just because you’re rushing to ship the order?” Paul thought Sonia was merely saying so to bargain with him, so he became a little arrogant.

Sonia smiled, “Besides your company,

Rentoor Inc. is also well-known in manufacturing goods for overseas orders.”

“But I heard Rentoor is fully booked until next year. President Reed, did you really sign a contract with Rentoon7″ Paul was still in disbelief and pressed on.

What he said when they were playing cards the other day was merely out of respect toward Toby. In fact, he didn’t take Sonia seriously at all, but little did he think that she managed to engage Rentoor.

Sonia has just entered the business circle and has no connections. How would she know the boss of Rentoor? Could it be that Toby is helping her?

Paul was reminded of how Toby cared for Sonia that day when they were playing cards, so he thought it wasn’t surprising that Toby would help her to build connections.

Within a few seconds, Paul understood the situation. Gritting his teeth, he said to Sonia, “President Reed, to be honest, I was merely bluffing when I said that an old client requested additional orders. Earlier on, President Gray called me and asked me to not take up orders from Paradigm Co.”

Hearing that, Charles snorted. “No wonder! All this while I was wondering why you wouldn‘t take up such a profitable business. I figured that there’s a possibility that someone is picking on our company.

Ha! Turns out I was right!”

– “Our company has quite a number of collaborations with Gray Group, so I was in a quandary.” Paul smiled awkwardly and continued immediately, “But I still wish to collaborate with Paradigm Co. Otherwise, I wouldn’t take the risk of offending President Gray and come here today.”

What Sonia needed currently was exactly this–connections. Moreover, there were no enemies in businesses and profit was the utmost priority.

Sonia smiled. “I perceive your sincerity, Mr.

King, but I’ve already signed the contract with Rentoor. If I have other overseas orders in the future, I’ll definitely go to you first.”

Hearing that, Paul heaved a sigh and continued chatting with Sonia and Charles for a while more before leaving.

After Paul had left, Charles asked Sonia,

“I’ve tried contacting Rentoor before this too but to no avail. How did you manage to contact their boss?”

“Zane referred me to him.”

Then, Sonia told Charles about the event where they played cards at Sakura Heights, and that Zane referred her to

Rentoor after that After hearing that, Charles sighed. “If we had known that Zane has such a connection, you could have taught Mr.

King and the others a lesson when you guys were playing cards at Sakura Heights. Teach them a lesson so that they

won’t dare to play cards with you anymore.”

Sonia smiled. “Mr. King and the others are pretty good at playing cards.”

She had not played cards ever since she got married to Toby. After some time, besides Charles and a few others, many people thought Sonia didn’t know how to play cards. The last time she played with Paul and the others was the first time she played cards after six years.

You‘re too humble!” Charles rolled his eyes at Sonia and teased her, “We grew up together. Of course I know how good you are at playing cards. Even your father couldn’t beat you, let alone others.”

Because of Charles’ remark, Sonia was reminded of her father who committed suicide, and she felt terrible. “Let’s go. I’ll buy you dinner.”

Just as she stood up and wore her coat,

her phone started ringing.

her phone started ringing.

“Hello?”

“Is this Miss Sonia Reed? Your brother is at our police station now. Please come over immediately.” A lady’s solemn voice emerged from the other end of the line.
