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

Chapter 1062

Charles' words were exactly what Sonia meant, so she decided to keep silent and admitted to it wordlessly.

Toby clenched his fist once again and he did it so forcefully that there was an audible crack from his knuckles.

"I won't agree to us breaking up. I won't even give you the chance to break up with me." Toby kept his eyes on Sonia as he enunciated each word carefully and firmly.

She was the person he had been in love with for more than ten years; she was someone whom he had once shared his life with before losing her again; she was also someone whom he had rescued in exchange of his near-death experience. Therefore, he would never give her the chance to break up with him. There was no way on earth that it would ever happen.

Sonia could tell from Toby's eyes with what he intended to express and she was sincerely shocked by that. Finally, she moved her red lips and started to speak up, "So, it is me that you have chosen."

Toby instantly took her into his arms right in front of Charles and placed a hand behind the back of her head as he spoke genuinely, "Yes, it will always be you."

Although she had expected this, as soon as she heard Toby express it verbally in person, she could not contain her shocked expression.

She slowly withdrew herself from Toby's arms and lifted her head to look at the man in front of her. "Are you sure about this? You should be aware that the other person we're talking about here is your esteemed mentor. Although this matter isn't initiated by him but his granddaughter, I'm guessing that he wouldn't want us to kick up a big fuss about this and just let bygones be bygones. Surely, he would want to save his granddaughter. If you refuse, would your mentor accept this graciously and let things be?"


"You must be joking." Charles rolled his eyes. "I've met Mr. Lore twice and he's just an idiotic old man who sides with the younger generation of his family quite unreasonably. His favorite granddaughter is Lynette. There are too many sons in the Lore Family while Lynette's the only daughter, so obviously, she's spoiled rotten in their family. Not only does everyone in the family dote on her, but Mr. Lore also spoils her to her core. He doesn't even realize that his actions have turned her into a spoiled brat and seems to assume that this is just her childlike nature. Ha. I think he seems to be quite proud of that too."

As soon as Charles mentioned that, he suddenly revealed a scoffing look. "Sonny, I don't know whether you've heard of this story before, but eight years ago, I attended a dinner party and Mr. Lore and his family were in attendance too. The atmosphere at the dinner party was quite nice and peaceful, and everyone mingled around as they enjoyed some drinks, and chatted with each other. However, soon after that, a group of debutantes suddenly got into a fight. Guess why?"

Sonia shook her head. "I don't know. I wasn't in attendance at the dinner party that you just mentioned." Eight years ago, her dad was still alive and he was the chairman of Paradigm Co. at that time. However, Paradigm Co. was gradually experiencing a downturn back then, so most of the organizers of dinner parties would skip the invitation to the Reed Family. Naturally, she did not get to attend that dinner party, so she wouldn't have known what went on there.

She turned to glance at Toby and there was a questioning look in her eyes. Do you know about this incident that Charlie just mentioned?

Toby shook his head slightly. "No, I don't know anything about that. I didn't attend that dinner party. I usually get invited to a lot of functions and I don't really have the time to attend every single one of them."

At that point, Sonia grimaced slightly. She realized that he was not, in fact, trying to show off. After all, it was normal for him to receive countless invitations to dinner parties due to his status, but as she heard his words, she found herself quite envious of him.

Truth be told, most people would resort to anything—even paying exorbitant amounts of money—to obtain an invitation to a dinner party. The reason was so that they could join the dinner party and mingle with those people of higher social status. However, for Toby, he did not even have to ask for the things that others seemed to yearn so badly for and yet were out of reach for them. Furthermore, he generally attended those functions based on his mood. If he turned up, he would always be given a personal and warm welcome by the host of the dinner party. Even if he did not turn up, no one would comment on that. That was just how much different it was for people of different social statuses.

At that moment, she no longer wanted to speak to Toby to avoid being subconsciously flaunted. She quickly shifted her eyes and turned to Charles. "Charles, keep going, then. What was the reason for the row?"

Charles grunted in response and continued his topic, "The reason was that one of the girls bought a dress that Lynette missed out on, and out of anger, Lynette splashed wine on that girl. The girl Lynette splashed wine on was also doted upon by her family members, so she had quite a temper too. Subsequently, the two girls got into a fight and in the end, the other girls in their respective cliques got involved in the fight as well. The dinner party ended up in havoc. The family members of the girls finally heard about the fight and rushed over in a hurry."

"What happened next?" Sonia's interest was piqued. "How did the matter get resolved?"

Charles laughed derisively. "In the end, this matter ended after the girl who was splashed with wine apologized to Lynette. Furthermore, the girl also had to provide a lot of gifts to Lynette as compensation."

"What?!" Sonia felt as if she was listening to the biggest joke ever as she revealed an exasperated smile. "That was too much! How on earth could a victim be expected to apologize and even provide compensation to the perpetrator? This is the first time ever that I've heard of such a ridiculous thing!"
