Chapter 146,Boss, Your Wifeâs Asking for A Divorce, Again!
When the cable car came for them, everyone stopped talking and got into it. After they came back to
the villa, Sonia saw the cook sending off the doctor. âSeems like Tinaâs fine.â Rebecca crossed her
arms. Charles pouted. âOf course she is. That womanâs not gonna die that easily.â âAlright, stop arguing
and letâs go.â
Sonia looked away and went into the villa, followed by Charles and the others. Toby was making calls
when they came in. When he saw Sonia and the others, he averted his gaze. âIs Miss Gray okay,
Toby?â Zane knew Tina was fine, but he asked Toby out of courtesy so that he wouldnât look too
indifferent. âSheâs fine. The snake wasnât venomous.â Toby put his phone down. âWhat a shame,â
Rebecca suddenly said
A frown creased Tobyâs forehead, and his anger flared. He looked at Rebecca coldly before turning his
attention to Zane. âYouâd better keep her in check,â he said coldly. Before Zane could reply, Charles
laughed. âWell, I think Miss Harperâs right. Itâs a shame the snake was harmless.
Bet you donât know this is all her own doing, Mr. Fuller.â âWhat are you trying to say?â Toby squinted. At
that moment, he realized this accident might not be a coincidence at all. Charles wrapped his arm
around Soniaâs shoulder. âWhat Iâm saying is that Tina knew the snake was there all along.
She wanted to get the snake to attack Sonia, but Rebecca managed to get Sonia to duck in time, so
the snake ended up biting Tina instead.â Toby froze for a moment, apparently shocked by the truth of
the accident. âIs this true?â He looked at Sonia. Sonia looked away, refusing to have any eye contact
with him. Her silence annoyed Toby, but he didnât let it show.
âOf course itâs true. We arenât liars, unlike a certain someone.â Charles rolled his eyes. Toby gazed at
them for a moment. When he realized that they didnât look like they were lying, he clenched his
fists. Tina⦠âSo how are you gonna settle this, Mr. Fuller? Donât leave us hanging.â
Charles sneered at Toby, who was staring at the ground. Toby stood up, pursing his lips. âGive me
some time. Iâll settle this.â âSure. We can wait, but donât disappoint us, Mr. Fuller.â Charles grinned.
After that, Toby went upstairs without another word. âWait for me, Toby.â Tyler quickly followed his
brother. âI need to talk to you.â
I have to get Toby to break up with Tina no matter what. After the Fuller siblings were gone, Charles
huddled closer to Sonia with a smile. âI wonder what Tylerâs going to tell Toby.â âItâs a wonder indeed,
but Iâm not interested.â Sonia smiled at him and took his hand off her shoulder. âIâm going to my room to
change.â
With that, she went upstairs as well, leaving Zane, Rebecca, and Charles in the living room. The trio
looked at each other in silence for a moment. Rebecca yawned. âIâm going to my room too. Gonna take
a shower and nap.â âIâm going for some horseback riding,â Zane said. Thus, Rebecca went upstairs,
while Zane went out, leaving Charles alone. He looked at Rebecca and Zane, then he sighed. âWhere
am I supposed to go then? Nowhere?â
Since he had nothing to do, he plopped down on the couch and watched some TV. Later, Zane went to
pick a horse in the stable and led it to the track, but it was under cleaning, so he had to wait. Since that
was the case, Zane tied his horse against a pole and leaned against the fence, holding a glass of juice
as he watched the staff cleaning the track.
Suddenly, one of the staff members bent over to pick something up, then he shouted at the staff
member with a red hat, âHey captain! You might want to see this.â âWhat is it?â
The captain trotted toward his team member. The staff member handed a glass bottle to his captain. âI
found this. Took a whiff, and it seems to be musk.â âMusk?â The captain frowned. âYep, and thereâs two
of them.â The staff member nodded. âBut judging from the size of the bottle and the musk, there should
have been three of them in here. This might be the one we lost.â âIâm sure this is it, so the question is:
where did the third one go?â
the captain said. Zaneâs curiosity was piqued. âWhatâs the matter?â He went up to the staff. The captain
knew he was a client, so he told Zane honestly, âOur men found a bottle of musk pills on the ground.â
âMusk pills?â Zane arched his eyebrow. âWhatâs that?â âItâs a kind of pill extracted from the fluids of
stallions. Commonly used to arouse mares. Horses donât get in heat that easily, so us breeders would
use this to get the mares in heat.
Makes them easier to breed,â the captain explained. Zane nodded in realization. âI see. But why did
you find it here out of all places?â âNo idea. When we did an inventory check yesterday, three pills were
missing. Didnât think weâd find them here.â The captain scratched his head in bafflement. Seems like
someone stole it and used one of the pills,â Zane answered. âBut itâs useless unless you want to get a
mare in heat. Whyâd they steal this out of all the things here?â the staff member asked. âWait. You said
itâs lost yesterday?â Realization struck Zane, and he got serious. The captain nodded.
âYes. We do inventory checks every day, so Iâm sure the pills only went missing yesterday. âTis not an
important thing, so we didnât pay it any mind.â Zane squinted. These pills can only affect mares, and
they were stolen yesterday. Soniaâs mare got in heat on the track all of a sudden yesterday. This is no
coincidence.
Someone wanted Sonia to fall from her horse. The culprit managed to get Soniaâs mare in heat with
one pill, so they threw everything else away, including the bottle. The culprit probably threw it onto the
field because they thought it wouldnât be found. The fieldâs really big anyway, so finding a tiny bottle like
this would be difficult.
âDo you guys have any surveillance cameras in the storeroom?â Zane turned to the captain. The
captain shook his head. âNo.â Zane thought that was a shame, but he didnât dwell on it. âCan I have
that?â He pointed at the bottle the captain was holding. The captain wondered why Zane wanted the
pills, but he gave it to Zane without any questions.
âThank you.â Zane went back to his seat with the bottle in hand. It wonât be easy finding the thief
without any camera footage, but I can still track that person down with his or her fingerprints.
I hope the thief left some traces here. Actually, Zane could guess who the culprit was. Who else could it
be but Tina? But he needed evidence to back his guess up, so he decided to keep this a secret until he
got the results of the fingerprint test. That night, they had dinner in the dining hall, but as usual, they
were split into two groups.
Tina was there too, but she was looking pale, perhaps still shocked from morningâs events. She was
looking weak and needy for love, but nobody spared her that. Everyone usually ignored Tina as much
as possible, but after what happened that day, they simply pretended she wasnât there; even Toby was
looking indifferent. He didnât care about Tina as he usually did. Tina thought that was unfair, so she
gripped her cutlery tightly and stared at Toby. âYou seem upset, Toby.â
