Chapter 704
Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again
Chapter 704 Producing Evidence Toby wasnât an idiot. Sonia pointed out that Henry had no intention of remarrying, yet Henry got married again in the endâthere had to be a reason why. Judging by the look on Soniaâs face, Toby could tell that something bad must have happened in between.
Indeed, Sonia lowered her head as she revealed the truth. âYeah. My dad was tricked into this. Back then, he went out to meet a client for business, and Sandra happened to be a waitress at the hotel he was at. She was attracted to my dad, so she drugged my dadâs drink and lured my dad into her trap. The next day, Sandra sneaked off before my father woke up, and she only reappeared in front of him when she was pregnant with Jessica. My dad is an extremely responsible manâhe had to take responsibility for Sandra since she was pregnant with his baby. That was why he decided to marry her,â Sonia explained.
âI see!â Toby was surprised by Soniaâs story.
Sonia bit her lip before she continued, âI recall my dad drinking a lot of alcohol the night he decided to marry Sandra. He hugged me and sobbed for a long while, and he kept apologizing to my mom and me. Jessica was right about one thingâmy dad was never very nice to Jessica and her mother.â
âHow could he forgive Sandra after she tricked him into such a huge thing?â Toby parted his lips to speak calmly.
To this, Sonia nodded in agreement. âYouâre right. My dad hated Sandra for what she did. Although he despised her, the most he did was to keep his distance away from her. He was never violent to her, and he always made sure to take care of her. My dad might not be as loving and gentle with Jessica, but Jessicaâs still his child, and itâs clear that he cares for her. That was why Dad was so strict with her. However, Jessica perceived Dadâs strictness as his lack of love for her, and she even...â Sonia clenched her fists as the muscles in her face trembled. Hatred and anger were written all over her face.
Right then, Toby gave her hand a gentle squeeze to make her calm down. âSandra cheated on your father because he wasnât intimate with her at all, right?â
âYeah. My dad never treated her like a wife; he only treated her like a colleague. Sandra eventually felt lonely, so she cheated on him with another man. Although my dad didnât love her, he couldnât stand the idea of being cheated on. He got furious and gave Sandra a huge scolding. After that, Sandra no longer dared to cheat on my dad, but she started acting oddly around him. He never loved her, so he never bothered to fault her for her odd demeanor. I didnât think much about it in the past, but now... Now that I know Sandra drugged my father, it seems like that incident was when Sandra really started hating him. Both she and Jessica only decided to drug Dad after that incident!â
At this point, Soniaâs gaze was filled with a mixture of fury and agony. Toby slowly pulled the woman into his arms as he comforted her. âDonât worry.
Youâre going to avenge your fatherâs death.â
âYeah,â Sonia muttered as she leaned against Tobyâs shoulder. He caressed her smooth hair as he continued speaking. âJessicaâs acts of revealing your identity online and starting rumors about you seem to be done with the intention of getting the public to side with her so that she can force you to hand your shares over. What are you going to do about this?â Toby was planning to step in if Sonia didnât know what to do, but he believed that she would rather deal with this matter on her own.
His assumptions were rightâSonia narrowed her eyes for a while before she replied, âJessica thinks that Iâll collapse under the pressure if netizens bad-mouth me for being an illegitimate daughter, but Iâm not going to let her get her way. Sheâs trying to use the power of netizens, but she didnât think this through. Doesnât she realize that the netizens will turn against her once I step forward to expose her lies? The netizens would realize that she was just using them, and sheâd receive double the criticism that I received on the Internet. Jessica only dares to make such statements online because she thinks that I donât have the evidence to show that Iâm not an illegitimate daughter.â
âAre you saying that you have evidence?â Toby lowered his gaze to look at Sonia.
She nodded. âOf course. My parents adopted me, so there has to be a letter of adoption. Once I provide them with this document, Iâll be able to show that I wasnât a product of an extramarital affair. That way, Jessicaâs first lie would be exposed. Also, do you remember what I said about Jessica and her mother bullying me? My dad had placed CCTV cameras in the house for the sake of me; do you still remember that I told you about it?â
âOf course!â Toby smirked. âIâd never forget anything about you.â
Sonia rolled her eyes. How is he flirting with me during such a serious conversation? Well... I guess itâs pretty sweet of him. She chuckled. âThe CCTV cameras recorded some footage of Sandra and Jessica bullying me, and the videos have been stored in the bankâs safety deposit box, along with the Reed Residenceâs property ownership documents. Both Jessica and Sandra donât know about this. My dad had intended to get a divorce with Sandra once Jessica turned legal, so he kept those videos to use during the court case. But before Jessica turned legal, my dad...â Soniaâs voice trembled as she felt a lump in her throat.
Toby planted a kiss on her forehead. âDonât worry. Iâm here with you from now on.â
She smiled at him before she continued, âWith these video recordings, Jessicaâs lie about me bullying her will be disproved. When that happens, all of the lies she told will be used against her.â You reap what you sow, Jessica.
Toby tidied Soniaâs hair as he spoke. âAre you going to host a press conference to present all of your evidence?â
âItâs the fastest and most direct way,â she replied with a nod.
âHave you decided when youâre going to do it?â he asked again.
Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again ï¤Chapter 703 âTomorrow morning, I guess. The faster, the better.â Upon finishing her words, Sonia shifted her gaze to stare at the man as she seemed to recall something. âBy the way, I realized there werenât a lot of comments when I was looking at the posts earlier. Did you get someone to contain the situation?â
âYeah.â Toby nodded in full honesty. âI just canât bear watching you being criticized by those netizens,â he mumbled with a stern look on his face.
She felt a surge of warmth in her chest. âThank you.â
âDonât worry about it. Itâs something I should do,â he replied gently.
She beamed. âAfter this, Iâll post my press conference on my social media account, and things will get heated once more. When that happens, I donât want you to limit the audienceâs engagement anymoreâmy comeback for Jessicaâs attack will be stronger if the netizens turn this into a hot topic.â
Toby frowned as he didnât seem to agree with her. No man would enjoy watching his woman getting cyberbullied by others, after all. Sonia could tell what was going on in his mind just by the look on his face, so she raised her hands and caressed his cheeks. âDonât worry, I know what Iâm doing. I feel bad when I see critical comments about me, but I can always choose not to read them, right? Also, the netizens who cursed me will probably feel bad after tomorrowâs press conference. While they may release their anger on Jessica, they may also purchase Paradigm Co.âs products to reduce their feelings of guilt toward me. Arenât we killing two birds with one stone? Weâre even promoting the business!â
He burst into laughter upon hearing her. âYouâre starting to sound more and more like a true businesswoman. Youâre getting so good at seizing opportunities, huh.â
âIâm taking that as a compliment,â she replied. With that said, Sonia lowered her hands and pulled her phone out to draft an announcement for her press conference. However, when she unlocked her phone, she saw a bunch of messages from different people.
There were messages from Charles, Grace, Rose, and Daphneâall of them texted to ask her about the trending news on the Internet. Sonia texted them back and reassured them that she had a plan to deal with this before she went back to drafting her announcement.
