Ch. 1361..1370

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1361 -Sonia laughed. "Why did you bring up his studies before he's even home? That poor boy might not want to come home after this."

He won't. Toby returned the phone to her. "He's mentally strong, so he won't run away. I bet he understands he can't neglect his studies for the championships. Otherwise, I might force him to give up on the competition and come home for school. That's why he must have studied hard over there. Well, the results might not be the best, but he must be confident enough to show off to me."

Grandma would be happy this year. Everyone's back to celebrate the new year with her. She leaned against him.

He caressed her abdomen and replied, "Yes. We also have an extra member here."

Yeah.

Her phone buzzed again. It was a call from Grace, which was not unexpected. She and Toby registered their marriage without giving anyone a heads-up, after which they spread the news online. That was akin to dropping a bomb on those who knew them personally, so it was understandable for them to call and inquire.

Therefore, Sonia had mentally prepared herself for the influx of calls. She did not look surprised and simply picked up the calls that came in. Toby was understanding and did not interrupt her phone conversations.

Similarly, he received a lot of questions and congratulations on his end. Most were happy for him, while only a few were unwilling to accept the news, including Lynette and Anya.

Lynette, now in detention, got the news from the TV in the center. Coincidentally, she overheard the news coverage of Sonia and Toby's marriage on a public channel, which prompted her to flip the table in a fit. She bawled and wailed, saying that the news could not be true and that she found it unacceptable.

What else could she do, though? Under detention, she was unable to make a move. Not only that, she got a warning and a solitary confinement punishment for acting out.

Meanwhile, Anya swept the cosmetic products off her dressing table in a fury and stared at the marriage certificate photo on her screen with resentment. Even though she knew she stood no chance with Toby and harbored a deep hatred for the couple, she could not stop herself from feeling despair and envy when she heard the news. After all, she had once loved him with all her heart.

Why? Are you throwing a useless tantrum because they're married? Connor inched into the room with his crutches and sneered when he saw the mess on the floor.

She stood up and rolled her fists. "Why did they suddenly get married? There was no news about it earlier! Why?"

He stood in front of her. "Do you think I have the answer to that? I bet they decided to get married on a whim. That's why there were no leaks. Anyway, it is good news. At least now I know Toby Fuller is truly in love with that woman."

Not only was Toby willing to throw himself into the fire for her, but he was also willing to die with her. Their touching relationship was eye-opening for Connor.

Indeed, Connor had gotten to the truth behind the fire at Paradigm Co.'s factory. Although Toby's men covered up the incident well, Connor still dug up some clues after a thorough investigation. Too bad, the useless Asher failed to burn the couple alive with the arson as they emerged hurt but alive.

Still, Connor did not return empty-handed from his investigation. At the very least, he understood the depth of Toby's love for Sonia, which meant that he could use her to destroy Toby next.

Anya was clueless about Connor's plan. She was burning in rage the moment she heard him saying Toby loved Sonia. She failed to understand why Toby would be attracted to Sonia.

She believed her looks and family background were on par with Sonia's. Despite that, Toby only had eyes for that woman. Even when Anya pulled some tricks, she never got Toby to love her. That was both infuriating and humiliating for her. I will never let this slide. Ever!

She blamed her situation today on them and vowed to let them experience a pain she felt a thousandfold. Staring at the mirror with her eyes ablaze, she let go of her emotions even if her expressions were ugly.

Connor squinted at her, and a malicious gleam appeared in his eyes. Go on, hate them. The more you hate them, the better of a tool you are.

Eventually, he smiled and left.

The next day, people started going on holiday because it was Christmas Eve soon. Sonia went to Tim, hoping that he could sign an approval form for temporary leave.

He knew that Toby and Sonia had to leave the hospital to celebrate the holidays at home, so he signed the paper to excuse them without much fuss.

Sonia returned to Toby's room with Tim's signed approval and buried herself in work. She needed to prepare since she would spend the holidays with Rose at home. She planned to buy some gifts for her and the entire Lane Family.

It was a busy day for her. Even when Toby suggested having someone else prepare the gifts, she turned down the idea because she wanted to make thoughtful purchases, especially for gifts she would give to close family and friends.

He gave in and let her be. Still, he tried to help her by taking up some easy tasks, such as preparing monetary gifts. She decided to withdraw some cash to give to the kids. Tyler should also receive one. Right?

The Lanes were a huge family, especially after they included Grace's family members. Sonia remembered that Grace asked her family, the Huntingtons, to help source the supplements for Toby's arm injury. Grateful, she would like to show her appreciation by sending gifts to the kids in the Huntington Family.

There were more than ten kids from the Huntingtons' extended family. Now, the task of wrapping the monetary gifts fell on Toby. However, he did not complain because he wanted to help her out.

Time flew by, and New Year's Eve arrived. After some hectic days, Sonia finally wrapped up her holiday preparations and visited the Fuller Residence with Toby feeling much relieved.

When they arrived, she immediately spotted Tyler from afar. He was standing at the entrance, waving at their car. After parking, she got out of the car, and her jaw fell at the sight of the boy. Is this Tyler? How is he so tanned?

She stared agape at him for a while. Similarly, Toby jumped at the sight of Tyler's extremely tanned skin. When Tyler smiled, the vast contrast between his sparkling white teeth and tan skin was rather funny.

Tyler had no idea that Toby and Sonia were shocked at his tan skin and giggled like a fool. "Toby! Sonia! You're finally here. I waited so long for you."

She took Toby's arm and smiled at Tyler. "You must be tired."

No, I'm not! It's been a while since I came home, and I realized nothing has changed. Tyler waved at them.

Toby gave him a side-eye. "What did you expect? It's only been half a year. Alright. Start moving and help us to get some stuff from the trunk."

Roger that, Tyler replied and skipped to the car.

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1362-In the meantime, Tom was busy taking out the presents in the car trunk. Those were gifts to the family from Sonia and Toby. The sheer number of items took up much space on the ground.

When Tyler walked up to him, Tom was astonished at the sight of his tan skin. What has he been through? He was pale before he went abroad, but he's multiple shades darker now.

Though he noticed that change, he did not say a word about it for fear of embarrassing the kid.

Hey, Tom. Are these all that need to be carried into the house? Tyler stood there grinning, oblivious that Tom was shocked by his change.

Tom looked away and nodded. "Yes, Mrs. Fuller bought gifts for everyone. We need to carry them into the house."

Okay. Tyler started lifting packages of all sizes from the ground. Since he was tall, stocky, and strong, he lifted the items without difficulty.

Tom was more relaxed with the extra help. Subsequently, he took out the last item from the trunk—Toby's wheelchair. When Tyler laid his eyes on it, he thought it was Sonia's gift for his grandma. In the end, Tom had to explain that the wheelchair belonged to Toby and not Rose.

Tyler was stunned to hear that and turned to his brother. "Toby, since when have you been using a wheelchair?"

He accidentally interrupted Toby and Sonia's conversation with his scream and earned an impatient glare from him. "I need it because I'm ill. What's wrong?"

No, Toby. Tyler sounded worried. "Look, I'm not the smartest, but I'm not that dumb either. Not everyone needs a wheelchair. Even if you're sick, I don't think you're at the point where you need one. I thought you were always healthy. How did you fall sick?"

Tyler was vividly concerned. Sonia helped Toby into the wheelchair and explained, "He's gone through surgery not long ago and hasn't fully recovered. That's why he needs one."

A surgery? Tyler froze and asked again, "Sonia, what's the surgery? Was it dangerous?"

She stole a glance at Toby because she was unsure how to reply to Tyler. Looking across, Toby pursed his lips. "That's enough questions. Let's head in."

Tyler scoffed unhappily. "I was worried about you, but you seem annoyed at me." Then, he mumbled, "What a waste of my sympathy."

Toby overheard that and narrowed his eyes. "What did you say?"

Nothing. Tyler shook his head hastily and craftily denied any badmouthing because he did not want to be lectured.

On the other hand, Toby was tired of nagging his younger brother, so he played along when Tyler denied saying anything. He gently patted the back of Sonia's hand and whispered, "Darling, let's go."

Sure. She nodded and wheeled him toward the entrance of the house.

Ever since they registered their marriage, he had started calling her 'darling' instead of Little Leaf. She found it unfamiliar and rather embarrassing, but the thick-skinned Toby insisted on calling her so now and then.268247

To her surprise, she adjusted to the term of endearment after two days. From there, she learned that change mostly happened when one was forced into a situation or given a push by someone else. Otherwise, she would probably not get used to their new relationship status.

She wheeled him over, leaving Tom and Tyler far behind them while they carried the gifts. During the walk, Tyler was talkative and bombarded Tom with questions about Toby and Sonia's relationship in the six months he was abroad.

Tom reluctantly entertained him with some casual facts he cherry-picked, only because Tyler was his employer's brother.

Thankfully, Tyler was simple-minded and easily entertained. Even when he heard unimportant details from Tom, he would listen intently and gasp here and there.

Tom was dumbfounded by his reaction. He wondered why Tyler would be shocked by some inconsequential events or details of Toby's relationship. If I told you everything that had happened between them, you'd be screaming by now.0

Soon, they arrived at the main hall, where Rose had been waiting for them.

She had wanted to welcome the couple at the entrance but was talked out of it by Mary, who worried that the cold would further affect the old lady's poor health. In the end, Rose had to suppress her anticipation and sit patiently in the main hall.

Jean, too, was waiting with her, but she was initially reluctant to do so. She would willingly wait for Toby's arrival but not Sonia's.

Still, she was aware that she had to rely on Sonia for the sake of their family because Tyler was not great at managing business. With that in mind, she had to put aside any unwillingness when dealing with her.

They're here. Mary's eyes lit up when she heard the footsteps from the outside. "Old Mrs. Fuller, that must be Young Master Toby and Young Mistress Sonia."

At that moment, Mary reverted to the old way she addressed Sonia. Truthfully, she was dying to address Sonia the way she did in the past, but that was inappropriate after Toby's divorce. As a result, she had to address Sonia as Miss Reed for a while.

Now that Sonia and Toby were married again, she could finally address Sonia as the young mistress.

Is that true? That's great. Rose was overjoyed when she heard Mary's remark and had Mary lead her to the door to wait. Since it was a short walk, Mary agreed and helped her.

Beside them, Jean rolled her eyes at the scene. She could not understand Rose's affection for Sonia, to the point that the old lady would rise to welcome the young woman. How annoying.

Despite her silent complaints, she stood up and followed Rose to the door. It would be inappropriate for her to sit around if her mother-in-law went to welcome the guests.

They're indeed here! A smile blossomed on Rose's wrinkled face when she saw the four figures walking toward her. However, her smile faded when she saw Toby. "Mary, do you also see Toby in a wheelchair?"

Mary nodded. "You're right. Young Master Toby is in a wheelchair. What happened?"

Both women were in disbelief.

Sonia spotted Rose and Mary at the door, but she felt extremely anxious at the thought of meeting the family. She had no idea how she would explain to Rose and Mary when they saw Toby's condition, and she was unsure if they would be mad at her.

I think they will be angry at me. I'm the reason their precious Toby is in a wheelchair.

Sensing Sonia's distress, Toby reached backward to caress her hand. "Don't worry. I got your back."

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1363-Sonia forced a smile as a response, and the couple came up to Rose and Mary. Before they could greet the elders, Jean shrieked, "Oh, Toby! What happened? Why are you in a wheelchair? Are you hurt?"

Sonia's grip tightened around the handle, whereas Rose and Mary cast their dubious gaze onto Toby.

His gaze dimmed. "We can talk about this later. Let's head in first. It's cold outside."

Yes, he's right. Rose nodded in agreement. "Sonia, push him in. Don't stay out here for too long."

Okay. She nodded and pushed Toby into the main hall.

Mary supported Rose as they trailed behind the couple, but Jean waited outside for Tyler. It pained her to see his hands full of packages. "Gosh, why did you take it all upon yourself? You're back from a tournament not long ago. You should be resting. What a fool. Why did you go out to bring so many things with you? Isn't it heavy?"

She grumbled and rolled up her sleeves to offer him help. Tyler could finally wipe off the sweat on his forehead, grinning. "Mom, I'm fine. It's as light as a feather."

She snorted and gave him an eye roll. "Then, why are you dripping sweat? Geez. Why can't you ask a maid to take them with you? Stubborn boy."

It's not many, anyway. He did not mind.

Jean became frustrated as her foolish son did not understand her. "Fine, fine. Let's get over this. Say, what happened to Toby? Why is he in a wheelchair?" she questioned with an undertone.

Out of worry that he might be asked the same question, Tom quickly slid by their side. She glanced at him before facing Tyler again. "Hurry. Tell me."

What is there to say? Don't you know he underwent surgery recently? It was Tyler's turn to be surprised now.

She shook her head. "No, we didn't hear anything about that."

Huh? He didn't inform you guys?

Jean pouted. "He only has eyes on Sonia ever since they got together. He has forgotten about his family."

Don't say that. I guess he didn't want to make you guys worry. Tyler shrugged his shoulders.

268248

A vexed Jean tapped his head. "Rather, I think he just didn't want to tell us. We're merely outsiders to him."

Mom, cut it out. His patience was running out. "I know you don't like Sonia, but you can't blame everything on her. If you keep this act up, you might not be able to get along with her. And allow me to remind you that she's not the old Sonia; she's a whole new person now. If you go against her, you'll be the one in the loss."

He then caught up with Tom, leaving Jean behind. Now that no one cared about her, she stomped her foot out of frustration. "Foolish! He's just another simp of that girl!"

Back in the hall, Sonia quickly passed out the presents to everyone upon seeing Tom and Tyler bringing in the stuff.

Clothes and supplements were for Rose and Mary, while workout attires, sneakers, and a basketball were Tyler's gifts.0

That pair of trainers had been to his liking because it had his idol's signature. He had always wanted one, but he could not meet his idol and the signed sneakers in the market were sold out as well. Even if he was the second son of the Fuller Family, he failed to snap it up from the competitive sale. Receiving them from Sonia was totally beyond his expectation.

It was a coincidence that she was able to get her hands on it too. Her friend from the same university happened to be selling them due to the dire need for money.0

She saw the post by chance and purchased them, thinking Tyler might love them. His exhilarating expression proved that she had made the right decision.

Besides Tyler, Jean received a set of jewelry too. Due to Sonia's dislike for her, the ordinary present was purchased from a random jewelry store. It was neither expensive nor cheap, leaving Jean no openings to be finicky even if she did not like it.

In truth, she genuinely did not like it. First of all, its price was disappointing. She figured that Sonia had bought her a cheap set of jewelry because Sonia looked down upon her.

Secondly, she could tell how little Sonia cared about choosing the gift from the designs. The designs were meant for youngsters, not someone of her age. It would be weird for her to wear them.

Sonia did not like Jean, so she did not exercise much effort in choosing the present. Still, Jean kept her emotion to herself because no one would take her side if she expressed displeasure. Instead, they would criticize her for being fussy.

Sonia had the Fuller Family wrapped in her fingers now and everything was no longer the same. Therefore, she had a happy and surprised face while thanking Sonia profusely.

Despite knowing Jean's facade, Sonia could not care less about exposing the woman. Since she had decided to see Jean as a mere relative, presents were a must during such an important festival. Therefore, Jean's inner thoughts would never affect her one bit.

After that, Sonia gave Tom a present. He pointed at himself in surprise. "I have one too?"

Yeah. You're one of us, so you should have one when everyone does. She proffered the present to him.

He glanced at Toby, who did not stop her and accepted the gift with joy. "Thank you, Young Mistress Sonia."

My pleasure. She smiled before delivering the final gift to Toby.

He raised his brow. "There's one for me?"

Of course. Even if I forgot about Mrs. Fuller's present, I would remember yours. She shot a glance at Jean.

The way she addressed Jean confirmed her stance that she would never get along with Jean in the future. However, everyone could understand that. After all, Jean had crossed the line during those six years, so they did not blame her for not calling Jean 'Mother'.

At the same time, Jean's expression darkened. What does she mean by that? Even if she forgot about my present, she would remember Toby's, huh? Does that mean she didn't wish to give me anything from the start?

Frustration bubbled in her in split seconds. Everyone could see that she was enraged, but no one comforted her as they reveled in their presents.

Why didn't you tell me? While holding the nicely wrapped gift, Toby could not smother the smile across his lips.

Sonia laughed. "Presents are surprises, and surprises are meant to be kept as a secret first."

What did you buy me? He stared at her.

She moved her finger left and right. "It's a secret. You should open it yourself, but I advise you to do it in the room later."

Alright. He nodded as a promise.

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1366-"He truly is." Sonia agreed.

Although Toby could not stand her complimenting another man, Tim was an exception. There was nothing worth arguing over that.268249

After that, Rose asked a few more questions to ensure that the pregnancy would not harm Sonia's health. It was not until then did her heart sink from her throat.

Following that, Sonia finally had a taste of a queen's life.

Rose and Mary treated her like a glass doll, tending to her meticulously, in a worry that she might suffer from cold or hunger or whatnot. She found the situation hilarious. She was indeed pregnant, but she was not that fragile.

Yet, they gave her a watertight minister similar to that catered for a delicate doll. She was humored and touched at the same time.

It was time to have a reunion dinner when the night dawned, and Rose took the chance to announce Sonia's pregnancy to the family. It received huge reactions from Jean and Tyler.0

What the heck? She's pregnant? No wonder they remarried. Jean pouted after the wave of surprise subsided in her.

Nevertheless, she was not evil to the bone. Despite her disapproval of Sonia and the news, she did not plan on laying a finger on her. She was aware that nothing could get in the way of that couple, so their matters did not bother her one bit. At most, she would only grumble about it instead of scheming something.

On the other hand, Tyler was over the moon as he kept prattling on about the fact that he was becoming an uncle. He even claimed he would be his niece or nephew's basketball coach.

In short, everyone celebrated the great news, bar one—Jean. Sonia observed her reaction, but she shrugged it off by making a mental note that she would not let Jean off the hook if she set her up.

After dinner, the family gathered at the main hall for the new year's countdown. Tyler, the perky young man, barely stayed for five minutes before heading outside to play crackers.

The old manor was situated on the outskirts without any buildings around it, so it was fine to play the crackers there.

Again, Tyler pulled Tom along with him. Tom, who initially decided to stay out of it, began to enjoy himself as time passed. The men had a blast, albeit with the age gap.

Knowing that no one favored her presence, Jean made an excuse to return to her room soon.

Toby could not stay up for a long time, hence the frequent rest needed to recover from the surgery. Therefore, Sonia pushed him into the room not long after Jean had left.

Rose concurred with it not only because of Toby but also Sonia's health. Sonia needed to spend more time in bed for adequate rest, so there was no need to take the countdown too seriously.

Given Rose's age and health, drowsiness crept over her after staying in the hall for a while. After the couple entered their room, she figured it would be best for her to rest than to force herself to stay awake for the two young men.

With that, the family returned to their rooms when Tyler and Tom had the time of their life outside.

Sonia pushed Toby into their room, which belonged to only him a few days ago. Now that they had remarried, it was considered their bedroom.

She hung his coat, and he sat by the bed with the gift in hand. The excited man removed the packaging. He had been looking forward to opening it, but he reined back his urge to do so during the day. Since the couple was the only one in the room, he could finally open it to look at the content.

Meanwhile, Sonia simply smiled and headed for the bathroom to shower.

At long last, Toby undid the package, which revealed no expensive gifts but a stack of yellowed letters. He knew that he wrote them at first glance; they were replies to Sonia when they were pen pals.

He placed the box on his lap, taking out all the letters. The stack was so thick that he almost dropped them.

Sonia had arranged them according to the dates beforehand. The first one was the very first letter he wrote to her. Precious memories evoked a smile on his lips, and his finger brushed on the paper.

They became acquaintances via a website called 'Message in a Bottle'. He came across her message, which carried her deep feelings.

He pitied her upon reading the content, hence the decision to comfort her with a reply. After that, they exchanged contact and address. That was how their journey as pen pals commenced.

Even today, Toby still remembered what he wrote her for the first time. He opened the first letter, and that naive and immature writing made him burst into laughter.

Slowly, he opened and read them one by one. He had forgotten some of the messages, but some remained etched in his head.

Regardless, it felt different rereading them. It was as if he was reminiscing how the sprouted love for Sonia began; it was not half bad.

It seems like you like my gift. Sonia, who finished bathing, hugged him from the back.

Toby kept the letters in the box gingerly. In a gruff voice, he said, "Of course. It's the best gift I've ever received. I didn't expect it."

She wrapped her arms around his neck. "I struggled, thinking of what to give you at first. In the end, they came to my mind, so I decided to give them to you. You wrote them to me, so it's like I'm returning them to the owner. So, how does it feel to read the letters you wrote so many years ago? Do they hit differently?"

Yup. He nodded before looking at her guiltily. "I'm sorry for not keeping your letters well. Otherwise, Tina couldn't have burned them."

He was under hypnosis at that time, thinking that Tina was Maple. He consented to her request to burn the letters because she assured him that she was already by his side. According to her, it was pointless to keep them. As such, none of Sonia's letters remained to record their history.

It's alright. She shook her head, knowing he was not the one to blame. "At least I still have your letters. These are enough to prove our past."

I'll keep them safe. I won't let anyone ruin them. He hugged the box with determined eyes, and she hummed in response.

Then, he fished out a delicate box from his pocket, putting her in a trance. "What's this?"

Your new year's gift. He smiled at her. "How can I not prepare a gift for my wife?"

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1367-Delighted, Sonia took the box from the man's hand. "I saw you didn't prepare any presents for everyone, so I thought…"

268250

Why did you think so? The man smiled at her. "I planned to distribute the presents tomorrow. It's the first day of the new year, so it's the best time to give out presents. However, I thought about it and decided to give yours to you right now. You've prepared mine, so I'd look bad if I didn't give you anything today."

You're good at this. She shook her head. "Even if you didn't prepare me anything, I wouldn't be upset at all. After all, you're always buying me stuff even when there isn't any special occasion."

That's different. Toby kissed her hand. "Those don't count as part of the festive. It's the new year this time, so this is a present for you to usher in the new year."

I'll gladly accept it, then. Sonia stood up and started to unwrap the present. She asked, "What's inside?"

You'll find out once you open it. He did not answer her question and merely told her to take a look for herself.0

She stopped it at that and opened the box happily.

Inside the box revealed an exquisite lady's watch, prompting her to exclaim, "This is the latest edition watch from Patek Philippe's collection this year, isn't it?"0

Toby was vague. "Yeah. I think it suits you, so I got someone to buy it." As he spoke, he took the watch in his hand and grabbed her left wrist to put it on for her. "The present I gave you isn't as meaningful as the one you got me, but it's a limited edition, so it can be considered a unique present, I guess. I hope you'll find it to your liking."

At that moment, Sonia glanced at the wristwatch, which was worth more than ten million, and said with a torn expression, "Are you kidding me? I'd be ungrateful to say I dislike it."

Do you like it, then? He rolled down her sleeves.

She nodded. "Yes!"

It would be hard to find anyone in this world who would dislike an expensive watch like this.

I'm glad you do. When I saw it in a magazine back then, I knew it was perfect for you. Now that I've seen this on you, I was right. He praised her as he stroked her slender wrist.

She smiled in response. "How did I not catch you buying this?"

I ordered it a month ago, and it just arrived two days ago, said Toby.

Sonia nodded without pursuing the topic any further. Subsequently, she steered him toward the bathroom to take a shower.

As usual, she waited for him outside.

Nowadays, many enjoyed sending monetary gifts to each other through electronic wallets. Sonia was also one of them, so she received a lot of good wishes for the year as well as some monetary gifts in her e-wallet. She also received some from Charles, Zane, and Grace.

Naturally, she accepted them all graciously.

In return, she sent them monetary gifts through their e-wallets and all of them accepted her gift graciously. After all, everyone reciprocated the other's kind thoughts, so it might upset the other party and also seem unkind if they rejected one's gift.

Besides, their action of sending gifts to each other was to spread joy.

If one party rejected it, the other party would naturally have to stop mentioning well wishes to them because it would make them look bad for collecting monetary gifts from the rejected party without returning anything.

That was why everyone happily accepted the monetary gifts. In reality, the act of reciprocating was fun, and everyone was delighted.

After Toby came out of the shower, he noticed Sonia was full of smiles. He lifted his brows and asked, "What's so funny? You seem happy."

She did not attempt to hide anything and explained with a smile, "I'm just sending money to Charles and the others while they reciprocate, and we've got a game going on too. It's really fun."

How fun can that be? He pursed his thin lips with a note of jealousy.

Sonia smiled in response before tapping her screen several times with her finger.

Ping! Toby immediately heard the notification on his phone, so he fished it out to have a look. He noticed that she had sent him some money to his e-wallet. Perplexed, he lifted his head to look at her.

In response, she mentioned, "I've sent it to everyone, and as my husband, I wouldn't forget about you! Don't worry. Yours is the most unique and biggest one."

Is that true? His eyes sparkled.

She did not reveal much.

Immediately, he tapped to open the gift and the figure that popped up was meaningful to him. Elated, he knew the meaning behind the figure, which signified forever love, despite not being familiar with the popular slang on the Internet.

Are you happy now? Sonia looked at Toby.

He coughed lightly. "It's acceptable. I'll send you one too." With that, he tapped swiftly on the screen with his fingers.

Soon, she received a figure signifying eternal love. Compared to her confession of love, his was way more. She shook her head with a faint smile. "Thanks, honey."

Say that again. Toby's expression became excited upon hearing that. Undeniably, he liked this endearment.

After all, her addressing him as 'honey' was an indication that she had fully accepted him as her husband.

Sonia looked at his eager expression and could not help but smile resignedly. Next, she fulfilled his request and called out sweetly again.

His breathing became hitched, and his voice turned hoarse. "Say that again."

Honey.

One more time.

This time, she rolled her eyes in annoyance. "I'm not a broken record! That's enough for now." Then, she turned around and left.

Nonetheless, Toby confirmed that she was shy because the tips of her ears had turned red. He trailed after her while maneuvering his wheelchair. "Darling." He kept repeating that.

Since she refused to 'honey' him any longer, he took over and address her as 'darling'.

As such, he stuck to Sonia and trailed after her wherever she went. He called out to her until her face flushed with pink, thoroughly embarrassed.

Despite that, she did not get him to shut up at all. If that's what he likes, I'll let him do that. It's fine as long as he's happy.

With this thought in mind, Sonia allowed him to continue. After some time, she no longer felt shy about that and was used to it.

Darling. After she tidied the place and lay on the bed, Toby suddenly came closer and buried his face in her neck. He spoke in an extremely low and hoarse voice and did not bother to hide his seduction.

Again… It's happening again. She rolled her eyes and gently pushed him. "No, don't even think about it. You're not fully recovered, so you'd better forget about those dirty thoughts. It's still a no even if you recover because I'm pregnant. You're not allowed to touch me."

Meanwhile, Toby heard her words but did not plan to back off. He hugged her tighter. "I get it. It's just that I can't contain my urges. Can you help me?"

No. She blushed and rejected him.

He continued to stare at her, and she felt bad upon seeing his pleading eyes. She was nearly about to give in because he rarely made such a request.

Perhaps she would have said yes if it was any other request, but she could not find it in herself to agree to this.

Darling. Toby noticed that Sonia was still hesitant, so he immediately buried his head into her chest and whined.

Stunned by the intense visual impact of seeing a bloke whine in front of her, she felt her mind spin. Without even realizing it, she nodded instinctively and agreed.

268251

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1365-"Splendid!" Rose exclaimed, and Mary grinned joyfully. Now that they became wiser with age, nothing much could elicit a smile on their face.

They had enjoyed and experienced whatever they should throughout their lives, so barely a few matters could make them budge.

The only thing that mattered to them was the youngsters, like their marriage and the arrival of a great-grandchild. That alone could make their cheeks rise to the roof.

Right, Toby. Didn't you say that you have good news for us? I've been waiting for the past two days. What is it? It suddenly came across Rose's mind. Mary gazed at them in anticipation too.

The couple exchanged glances. Under his encouraging gaze, Sonia took a deep breath before fishing out a file from her bag for the elders.

Curious, Rose perused the document. The content surprised her so much that she glanced at them again before rereading it. "M-Mary, take a look at this. Am I seeing things?"

She handed it over to Mary, who soon after went bonkers. "Old Mrs. Fuller, you've read it right. It's a pregnancy test result, and Young Mistress Sonia is pregnant!" She shifted her gaze onto Sonia. "Am I right, Young Mistress Sonia?"

Yeah. It's been two weeks now. A smiling Sonia nodded.

Rose finally came back to her senses as she patted her thigh excitedly. "Holy moly! This is great news!"

Isn't it? Mary nodded nonstop. "No wonder they revealed it only today. It's the new year, and we're expecting a baby! That's the icing on the cake! They're full of surprises, Old Ms. Fuller."

I know, I know. Rose clasped Sonia's hands. "Sonia, you're truly our heroine."

Toby raised his brow. Wait a minute. Why does Little Leaf get all the credits? What about me? She wouldn't get pregnant without me.

Still, he kept quiet as it was enough to see Rose be this happy.

That's exaggerating, Grandma. I just—

No. Rose interrupted as she stood her ground. "You are our family's heroine. Sonia, do you know that this is the happiest news of the year for me? I'm way much happier than the time you remarried Toby."

Her eyes reddened. "I thought I wouldn't have the chance to welcome your baby. God is generous enough to smile at me. I never thought I would get to see my great-grandchild before I leave. I'm so happy."

Grandma… A lump stuck in Sonia's throat. She placed Rose's hand on her belly. "I'm sure the baby is happy to know their great-grandmother is celebrating their arrival."

Rose caressed her belly while grinning. "Are you feeling uncomfortable, Sonia? There's a lot to suffer when you're pregnant. Just tell us if you're feeling under the weather. Don't make us worry, okay?"

Please be rest assured, Grandma. Sonia nodded. "I won't keep anything regarding the baby from you, but I am fine. It's only been two weeks. I think those predicaments will come after two months, so don't worry about it."

That's good. Rose relaxed. "But it has only been two weeks. How did you find out about it?"

People typically discovered their pregnancy after two months; it was rare to know the great news after barely two weeks.

Sonia smiled and explained, "We were clueless about it at first, but I wasn't feeling well when I was nursing Toby. He was worried, so he called a doctor. We wouldn't have known that early if it wasn't for the checkup."

I see. Rose nodded. "Lucky you. It could've been big trouble if you consumed something you shouldn't have."

True. Sonia saw eye to eye on that. "Probably because the baby wants us to find out about their existence, hence the reaction."

And that is one smart baby. Rose looked at Sonia's belly, giggling.

At that moment, a displeased Toby snorted. It is smart. It even deprives me of my privilege as a husband.

Almost instantly, Rose's visage darkened at that. "What's that, Toby Fuller? Do you not want a baby with Sonia?"

Even Mary looked at him with reproachful eyes, flustering the man.

What? Grandma is way too fickle! How could she think unworthy of me right after finding out about her great-grandchild's existence? She was so worried about me a moment ago, though. Geez…

A helpless Toby shook his head. "No, that's not what I mean."

Well, it better not be, or I'll skin you alive, Rose threatened.

He zipped his lip immediately, whereas Sonia chuckled at the man's meek reaction because she knew exactly why he snorted. This guy's jealous of his kid again. I bet there's more for him to be jealous of after the baby is out.

Sonia. Rose suddenly thought of something as she pulled Sonia's hand with solemnity. "Didn't you say it won't be easy for you to get pregnant for two years? It hasn't even been half a year. Will it take a toll on your health?"

Sonia was genuinely moved by Rose's concern. In most cases, the elderly generation prioritized the baby over the mother, rendering it rare for them to worry about the mother's health. As long as the baby was safe and healthy, the mother's poor health was none of their concern.

The fact that Rose cared more about Sonia's health touched her.

There is a little impact from it. With no intention to hide the truth, Sonia smiled at Rose. "Tim said I shouldn't be able to conceive a baby since I haven't fully recovered yet, but I have to keep the baby since it's here. An abortion will render me barren, but I felt a lot better the past few months. I still have a long way to go, but I can get pregnant. The thing is, I will need more rest, and I have to drop by the hospital often to make sure I'm healthy. I will be able to give birth to the baby safely as long as there's no big issue."

I see. Rose heaved a sigh. "What a relief."

Put your worries to rest, Grandma. Tim promised he would ensure our health until the baby is born. Sonia reassured her.

That Timmy guy is one reliable boy, Rose praised him from the bottom of her heart.

This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1364 -It was a new year's gift from his wife; Toby would open it in the room where the others were not around.

Tyler rolled his eyes upon noticing Toby's petty attitude, whereas Rose and Mary shook their head as they found it hilarious.

Everyone was celebrating over their harmonious, nuptial relationship, but the irked Jean pouted. Still, she kept silent because she knew her place in the family.

After Sonia distributed the presents, Tom excused himself to avoid bothering the family's gathering, but in vain because Rose asked him to stay.

The Fuller Family fostered the orphan since he was young; he was all alone in his family. Thus, what fun would it be if he returned to being alone on such a happy occasion?

The more, the merrier—that was why she asked him to stay. No one minded an extra companion either, so Tom stayed, and Tyler dragged him out to play crackers. Despite his reluctance, Tom could not withstand Tyler's persistence and went along with it.

Jean excused herself and returned to her room due to her reluctance to share the same space with Sonia.

Rose was happy over Jean's absence because she frowned at that unwanted long face. Waving her hand, she gestured for Jean to leave when the latter voiced her request.

Now that Rose, Mary, Toby, and Sonia were the only ones in the main hall, liveliness warmed up the atmosphere under the heaters' help.

Yet, Sonia felt the chill because she knew what awaited ahead.

So, aren't you going to tell us what happened to you? Rose looked at Toby while asking in a low voice.

He knew that there was no escaping from that question. Besides, the couple intended to level with the family. So, he did not hesitate to answer upon hearing that question. "Grandma, I received a heart transplant again."

Both Rose and Mary's expressions fell while Sonia's heart was palpitating. She dropped her guilty and remorseful gaze onto the floor.

Again? Why? A trembling Rose approached Toby to hold his hands tightly. "The surgery a few years was a success, wasn't it? The doctor claimed you can lead a peaceful life until old age, so why?"

Yeah. What happened, Young Master Toby? Mary asked concernedly.

Sonia rose from her seat, intending to admit her fault. However, Toby suddenly pulled her back to her seat as he did not want her to say anything. "Grandma, I didn't tell you about this, but something went wrong with my heart because of that car accident."

What? Rose was shocked to the core. "You mean that one which happened a couple of months ago?"

Yes. He nodded.

Sonia gawked at him in disbelief. What does he mean by that? Why is he blaming everything on that accident? His heart went wrong because he saved me. It has nothing to do with that accident. Why is he claiming that the accident is the cause of everything? Is it because he didn't want Grandma to blame me?

She bit her lower lip as bitterness churned in her. She wished she could tell Rose the truth and take the blame upon herself, but the man kept holding her thigh. Rose and Mary did not notice his careful actions either.

That's impossible. Rose displayed a shadow of a doubt. "I followed up on your condition the whole time and didn't hear anything going wrong with your heart."

Yeah. Neither did I!

Toby lowered his gaze and smiled faintly. "That's because Tom was worried that you might not be able to take it. So, we kept it from you guys. The doctor promised to keep it a secret too. I had been searching for a suitable heart and finally found one a few days ago. The surgery was a success."

Is it true? Rose stared at him in an attempt to see through him.

The man looked straight into her eyes, adding credibility to his claims via his genuine eyes. At long last, she believed in his words as she patted his shoulder out of frustration. "You, silly boy. How dare you keep me in the dark. It's such an important matter!"

I just thought it was too much for you to take in, cooed Toby gently as he pulled her hands.

She snorted. "Then, why are you telling me about it now?"

He shook his head. "Now's the right time because I've fully recovered, and there's no problem with the surgery. That's why I feel comfortable telling you now. I don't have to worry that you'll faint or something."

You think too weak of your grandmother. She tightened her clasp on her stick. "Even if you told me the truth back then, I wouldn't collapse. Do not forget that I survived the war."

I know. He nodded. "I know you're strong as ever, Grandma, but I can't take the risk. If we turn back the time, I will still choose to keep it from you and tell you only once it's over."

Turn back time and suffer again? Rose slammed him. "Once is enough. Do you think you're a sort of machine? That you'll be fine after simply changing some components?"

Her remarks tickled Toby and Mary's bones. Mary took Rose's side by saying, "Yes, Young Master Toby, you should refrain from saying such a thing."

Okay. I promise I won't. He nodded. "All in all, I have a young and healthy heart now. As long as I'm away from danger, I can live a long, healthy life. So, don't you worry, Grandma."

You're only telling me after the surgery. There's no use worrying about you. Rose shot a glare at him. "I know you did that out of love, but I hope you won't do the same in the future. Just tell me. Sometimes, it won't do me good if you keep me in the dark. I don't wanna be the last person to know about your condition. Okay?"

Okay, Grandma. There'll be no more next time. He nodded.

She sighed. "If only you keep your promise. Look at my age. My sole wish is for you guys to be safe and sound."

We will. We will always be safe and healthy. He held her hands tight. "I'm still hoping that you can attend our wedding."0

He looked back at Sonia, who forced a smile. "So do I, Grandma."

Rose chuckled and nodded. "Of course, I will. Don't underestimate me. I'm not in the best health, but I know I still have a long way to go. I'm sure I'll be able to wait for that day to come, but when will you hold the wedding? The registration is completed, so I assume we can bring the wedding forward?"0

Yup. That is for sure. After Little Leaf settles the score with them, we will hold the wedding right away. Titus won't be able to hold on any much longer. I bet it won't be long before you see us walk down the aisle. Toby assured.
