Boss Your Wifeâs Asking for A Divorce Again Chapter 384 Toby grunted and hung up.
Two hours went by after that. By then, Sonia had landed in Norfolk. Rebecca pushed her out and hailed a ride to go to their hotel.
Daphne had gotten them a business suite with two rooms. The smaller room came with a bed too, and now Rebecca was staying in it. Sonia couldnât see the room, but since it was a smaller one, it must be cramped, so she smiled sheepishly at Rebecca. âSorry for having you stay in that room, Rebecca.â
âItâs fine.â Rebecca sat on her bed, swinging her legs. âItâs still fine. I like it, actually. Iâm just staying for a night or two, so itâs no big deal. Iâve stayed in smaller rooms. Heck, Iâve slept in the wilds before, so itâs nothing.â
Sonia was relieved to hear that.
Rebecca looked at the time. âItâs still early. The showâs starting at night, so do you want to get some rest?â
âSure. Iâm getting dizzy anyway.â Sonia massaged her temples.
âIâll help you to your bed.â Rebecca stood up and went toward her.
After Sonia had fallen asleep, Rebecca tiptoed out of the room and called Carl.
Carl picked up a moment later. âWhat is it?â He sounded hoarse.
âMiss Reedâs here in Norfolk.â Rebecca stopped before the elevator.
Carl had just finished his rehearsal and was taking a break in the spectator seat. When he heard that, he stopped wiping his sweat off. âSheâs here?â
âYes. Sheâs here for your show. You invited her, didnât you? She would never go back on her word, so here she is. But why didnât you take her call?â
Rebecca pressed the elevatorâs button.
Carl stared down at the floor. âNo reason.â
Rebecca snorted. âAs if. I know youâre afraid. You donât know how to face her, do you? Youâre a twisted man who wants her all for yourself, but on the other hand, youâre holding that urge down. Thatâs why youâre acting like a child and running away from her. Isnât that exhausting?â
Carlâs face fell, for Rebecca hit the bullseye. âEnough. What are you getting at?â
Rebecca pursed her lips. âMiss Reed doesnât blame you for what happened back then, so stop hiding. Sheâs worried for you. And sheâs the victim here, not you. How could you let her worry about you? Grow up, Master Carl.â
Carl was visibly upset at that point. âYouâre in no position to lecture me, Rebecca.â
Rebecca rolled her eyes. âI am not lecturing you. This is just a reminder. See a therapist, will you? At this rate, youâll end up going out of control and hurting Miss Reed. And hereâs another thing. When you see her tonight, you have to stay calm no matter what, get it?â
âWhat? Why? What happened to her?â Carl gripped his phone tightly, noticing that something was wrong.
Rebecca sighed. âI canât tell you yet because I donât want to ruin your show. Youâll find out after your showâs done. The elevatorâs here, so talk later.â
She hung up without saying another word, as if Carl wasnât the boss she needed to respect. Well, he wasnât her boss in public. He was only her boss if they were in the Hayes residence.
Carl looked at his phoneâs home screen and squinted. He was just about to hack into the system and find out what happened to Sonia when his manager came over. âThe second rehearsalâs starting, Carl. You need to get into position.â
The manager took his phone and pushed him toward the runwayâs entrance.
When night came, Rebecca took Sonia to the fashion runway.
The runway was packed with a lot of people, including the leaders of the fashion world, celebrities, renowned fashion critics, and also lots of reporters.
Rebecca took Sonia to her seat in the second row. It was a nice one, since it was right in front of the runway where one could see the models clearly, but it was a pity Sonia couldnât see at the moment. However, that didnât discourage Sonia. She handed her phone to Rebecca. âRebecca, take Carlâs photos. Iâll take a look once I can see again.â
âSure.â Rebecca took Soniaâs phone and did as she asked.
âHow much longer until it starts?â Sonia leaned back.
Rebecca looked at the time. âTen more minutes.â
Sonia grunted.
Toby leaned against the guardrail on the second floor, staring at Sonia. She couldnât see anything, but even so, Sonia looked excited, and that made him jealous.
Tom was right behind him, so he noticed his boss getting jealous. âSir, why donât you just go down there?â He adjusted his glasses.
âNo. Rebeccaâs gonna notice me. Sheâll think I followed her here, and thatâs going to make her dislike me more.â Toby pursed his lips.
Tom rolled his eyes. But you did follow her here. Of course, he didnât say that out loud, or Toby would kill him. Tom coughed. âSir, Dr. Lancaster has news. Mr. Laneâs artist has come up with the culpritâs portrait.â
Toby swiveled. âWhat did you say? They know whoâs the culprit?â
âYes.â Tom nodded. âDr. Lancaster called me half an hour ago.â
âWho is it?â Toby tightened his grip on the guardrail.
Tom looked weird for a moment. âWe all know her. Itâs the fake Rina.â
âImpossible.â Toby was shocked. âI thought you sent someone to keep an eye on her. They should have told me if anything happened. What are they doing?â
Tom looked down in shame. âThis is all our fault. My men did follow her 24/7, but she switched out with Alice on the day Miss Reed was hurt, and they didnât notice it. They thought they still had Alice under watch, so thatâs why Miss Reed was hurt.â
The men werenât to blame. Nobody knew Taylor wanted to hurt Sonia, and they never expected a switcheroo. Even if they did, they wouldnât have known that Taylor had switched out with Alice in the bathroom.
Toby closed his eyes for a moment. When he opened them again, there was nothing but murder in them. âI knew it. The moment I saw Taylor, I knew she was evil. She has a lot to hide, and I told Sonia to keep an eye out, but she didnât listen. Now she got hurt because of that.â
âWhat should we do now, sir? Should we capture Taylor first?â Tom looked at him.
Toby squinted. âNot for now. Since I know Taylorâs the culprit, Sonia should know it soon enough. Letâs see what sheâll do.â
Taylor was the spy Sonia and Zane hired, but now the spy was planning on killing her employer, so Toby would leave her to Sonia and Zane. But if they refused to finish her off, Toby would be more than happy to take the job. He looked at Sonia and saw Rebecca handing her a phone. Charles probably found out about it too and is calling her to tell her.
