Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again

Chapter 508 Sonia’s Worried

Only then did Jean realize what was going on. What did I just do? I can’t believe I forgot that we’re at Mom’s party now. I caused a scene, and I’m making a fool out of myself right now. These guests must think that I’m an idiot who’s embarrassing myself! Jean lowered her head to conceal her flushed face, feeling ashamed.

Before the party started, Jean had reminded herself to be on her best behavior and to stay away from any trouble. In the past, when she hadn’t gotten used to the life of the wealthy, she had often embarrassed herself in front of others. She knew that she had caused plenty of issues for the Fuller Family in the past years. After ruining their reputation for so many years, Jean had hoped that she could finally present herself in a better manner that would change the public’s opinion of her. She wanted others to recognize her as an elegant woman from a rich family.

However, the moment she saw Sonia, it was as if all of her elegance and generosity had been flung to the back of her mind. She completely forgot about the party and confronted Sonia, humiliating the Fuller Family once more. Jean felt like slapping herself on her face at the thought of what she had done. I hate myself so much! I hate that I can’t control my temper. I could have approached Sonia when she was alone, or confronted her after the party… Why did I have to act so recklessly?

“I’m sorry, Mom. I know that I made a mistake. I—” Before Jean could finish speaking, Rose held her hand up to stop her. “You shouldn’t be apologizing to me. I think you owe Sonia an apology. Why did you pick a fight with her? I want you to apologize to her now!” Rose barked in a stern voice.

“You want me to apologize to her?” Jean pointed at Sonia with disbelief written all over her face. Sonia didn’t want to look at Jean, so she simply turned away from the woman. Zane adjusted the watch on his wrist and said in a relaxed tone, “Madam White, Sonia is no longer the daughter-in-law you used to bully and step on. She’s not related to the Fuller Family anymore, and she’s a guest invited by your family. How could you, a host, shame your guest in such a manner? Shouldn’t you be apologizing to her? Or… is this how the Fuller Family treats their guests?”

“Of course not,” Toby uttered before he turned to Sonia. “The Fuller Family doesn’t practice such terrible manners and traditions.”

hear that? I want you to apologize!” Rose struck her cane against the ground as she gave Jean her orders. Jean had always been afraid of Rose, and her entire body trembled when she

looked at her fingernails as she spoke in a calm voice. “You don’t have to apologize if you don’t want to, Mrs. Fuller. Your insincere apology sounds like it was forced out of you—it’s almost as if someone’s holding a knife to your neck or shoving your head against the wall. I’m genuinely afraid to accept an apology like yours. I’m worried that you might hold a grudge against me and pick a fight with me again in

she realized that she had been defeated. “Get lost, you embarrassing creature.” Rose

much of an embarrassment she was. She was too ashamed to stay at the party any longer, and she didn’t need to look up to know that all of the guests were staring at her with judgmental gazes. With both her palms covering her face, she lowered her head and ran out of the hall. However, Sonia happened to be standing

but she bumped against Sonia’s shoulder as she ran past Sonia. “Ah!” Sonia instinctively let out a soft cry as she lost her balance and stumbled backward in her high heels. Sonia’s sudden movements made her lose control of the wine glass in her hand, and all of the red liquid splashed out of the glass and onto her dress. The icy sensation made her

Sonia tightly without letting go of her at all. He was worried that she would fall if he loosened his grip. Both Rose and Zane heaved a huge sigh of relief once they made sure that Sonia was safe.

Toby pulled his arm away to let Sonia go. He lowered his head to glance at her, and he seemed as if he was about to say something as he parted his lips. However, before he could speak, Sonia grabbed his arms as she began to check on him. “Did you hit something just now, Toby? I

Sonia worrying about Toby. “Sonia…” Rose muttered. Her hand that had been holding onto her cane was trembling as she spoke. Zane was just as surprised. He had been sipping on his wine, but his hand jolted in surprise when he saw how much Sonia cared for Toby, and he nearly spilled his drink. Is Sonia… Is she and Toby… Zane’s face darkened as he tightened
