Chapter 344
Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again
Chapter 344 Cross the Line As Sonia was caught in a deep trance, she felt a vibration from her phone. Thus, she looked down, only to see a video sent by Toby. Not knowing what the content was about, she didnât think it was a good time for her to view the video, so she looked up at Charles and said in an apologetic tone, âYouâve been busy the whole day, Charles. So, you should probably go back and get some rest now. Iâll treat you to a meal next time.â
âAre you trying to send me away, Darling?â Charles looked askance at her. âJust so you can check out the video Toby sent you without me?â
Sonia tightened her fingers around her phone, wondering whether her gesture was so obvious that it gave her away. Fine, heâs probably seen through me anyway, so I guess there is perhaps no need for me to keep lying to him. Sonia rubbed her forehead and said, âIâm sorry, Charles, but this is a personal matter between me and Toby, so...â
âSo you canât let me know about it?â Charles folded his arms.
Sonia responded by pursing her lips, seemingly admitting it in silence. After all, she never planned on telling Charles what happened between her and Toby on that ungraceful night three months ago, and neither was she ever going to let Charles know that she was pregnant with Tobyâs child.
Otherwise, Charles would surely go after Toby to stand up for her, and what was worst was that he might rub the Fullers the wrong way and drag the Lanes down. Thus, she decided to keep him in the dark, as she didnât want him to get himself into trouble.
Noticing Soniaâs silence, Charles sighed and replied, âFine, I guess youâve really grown up, Sonia. You used to tell me everything, but now... youâre holding out on me. Alas!â He pretended to be sad and wiped his âtearsâ.
In the face of the manâs lousy acting skills, Sonia curled her lips upward while feeling guilty on the inside. After all, she knew how bad it felt to be kept in the dark, although she had no choice but to hold out on Charles about the matter. âIâm sorry, Charles.â Sonia looked down and apologized once more.
âItâs alright. I donât blame you. Everyone has their own secrets anyway, so I respect your wish to keep yours to yourself. Moreover, you could always tell me whenever you feel like doing so, and Iâll be all ears.â Charles waved his hand with a smile on his face.
Upon hearing the manâs understanding words, Sonia felt touched and warm deep down. Thus, she smiled and expressed her gratitude. âThank you so much, Charles.â
âDonât mention it.â Charles shrugged his shoulders and became serious once more. âAnyway, you must listen to me, Darling. I donât care what happened between you and Toby earlier, but I want you to protect yourself before itâs too late.â
âSure, I will.â Sonia nodded her head.
âAlright, Iâll make a move now.â Charles had his hands in his pocket and walked toward the door gracefully.
After that, Sonia fixed her gaze on Charles until he opened the door and disappeared from her sight. It was then that she shifted her gaze to her phone and viewed the video with a serious look on her face.
Upon watching a few seconds of the video, Sonia realized it was the security footage of what happened between her and Toby three months ago.
When she saw herself drunk and bumping into Toby before flirting with him, she was so overwhelmed by her embarrassment that she wished she could bury herself in a hole. Knowing herself to be someone reserved, she couldnât believe she acted like a different person and even flirted with Toby when she became drunk. This is so embarrassing! Fortunately, Iâm now alone in my office, or Iâm going to die of shame.
Soon, Sonia shook her head and tried to keep herself together from her overwhelming awkwardness as she continued to watch the rest of the video.
Then, when she saw Toby wrapping his arm around her waist and entering a room with her, her embarrassed look was instantly replaced by a darkened expression. So, Toby likes me more when Iâm drunk. Before we divorced, Toby had never even bothered to touch me, yet Jean kept urging me to have a child. So, it wasnât my problem for not doing my part to spice things up between us, was it? No wonder he acted so differently that day.
Sonia tapped the table coldly with her fingers with a glacial sneer on her face.
Back then, Toby felt nothing but disgust, just like how she currently felt, as he always looked at her with a sarcastic sneer, like she was a clown. Thus, he usually left her in the cold for her to face her own humiliation alone. However, Toby succumbed to his temptation when he saw Soniaâs drunken look on the video.
This is my first time seeing someone with such a peculiar liking. âHaha...â Sonia chuckled and continued to watch the video. After seeing Toby enter the room with her, a mysterious silhouette appeared in the corridor, and it was none other thanâCynthia.
At that moment, Cynthia appeared to be holding her phone, seemingly taking pictures of the place they were last seen. Then, she put her phone to her ear, probably trying to tip Tina off regarding their whereabouts. So that was how Tina found out that Iâm pregnant with Tobyâs child. Sonia pursed her lips and fixed her glacial eyes on the phone screen.
Not long after that, Cynthia walked away before nothing else but the empty corridor was shown on the security footage. If it werenât for the ticking time on the left upper corner, anyone would think that the video had already stopped. Nonetheless, Sonia knew that wasnât the case. Instead, the video had been fast-forwarded since there was nothing out of the ordinary happening outside the room in the corridor.
Five minutes later, it was already the next morning, and seven hours had passed, according to the time displayed on the left upper corner of the video. Eventually, the footage showed something new as Toby finally stepped out of the room. Then, he was seen walking away while talking on the phone.
Without paying attention to the length of the video, Sonia thought this was the end of it until she saw a man peeking around clandestinely before entering the room. When the man looked around him, the security footage had a clear shot of his face. Therefore, when Sonia managed to spot the Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again ï¤Chapter 343 manâs face, she stood up straight from her seat and exclaimed, âItâs him!â
That was the man whom I found lying beside me when I woke up the next day. Knowing Toby was the one with whom she shared an intimate moment, Sonia couldnât figure out why the man she saw after she woke up was a different person. I canât believe that man sneaked into my room!
Why did he do that?
Confused by the manâs ulterior motive, Sonia exited the video and rang Toby up, which was answered in a matter of seconds like he was waiting for her call. âHave you finished watching the video?â
Sonia responded with an affirmative hum and said, âYup, that...â
âI know what you want to ask.â Toby interrupted her words. âYou want to ask about that man, donât you?â
âYou figured?â Sonia squinted.
âWell, itâs not hard to guess, plus that manâs presence is the strangest part of the entire security footage. So, I wouldnât be surprised now that you asked.â Toby gave an affirmative reply.
âFine.â Sonia sat down once again. âIndeed, I want to ask you about that man. Since youâre the one who sent me this security footage, I reckon you must have learned everything about him. Right?â
âYeah. That man is a public relations officer whom Tina sent to violate you, but because of me, her plan was thwarted.â Toby squinted, speaking with a glacial voice.
âWhat?! Tina...â Soniaâs face changed as her heartbeat rose. Having thought that man had entered the wrong room all the time, she was taken aback by the shocking discovery. âShe is crossing the line!â Sonia held her phone so angrily that her hand began to shiver. So, Tina has been trying to set me up with her dirty tricks from the beginning. In fact, she might have even tried to hurt me with all kinds of shenanigans previously, but did I not realize that becauseâI got away every time?
âCalm down, Sonia.â Toby could sense Soniaâs anger from her tone as he tried to comfort her. âYour body is still recovering, so itâs important that you calm yourself down. Anyway, I think this is a perfect chance for you, on the other hand.â
