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

Chapter 1320

That's fantastic! Toby is not dead. He is still alive and well!

Sonia was trembling with joy.

After witnessing her in that state, Rita did not think she was insane. She reasoned this was because Sonia was happy.

When Sonia eventually calmed down, Rita handed her a tissue. "Miss Reed, please wipe your tears. Don't cry anymore since it's harmful to your eyes."

"Okay." Sonia took a deep breath and used the tissue to wipe away the tears that had spilled beneath the gauze. "Since Toby is not dead, why did you talk in that tone earlier?" she asked again.

"Well, President Fuller is still alive, but he is currently in the ICU," Rita replied as she touched the tip of her nose.

"ICU?" Sonia's voice abruptly raised.

"Yes." Rita gave a nod.

"What became of him? What happened? Tell me, please," Sonia hastily inquired.

However, Rita shook her head. "I have no idea what happened to President Fuller since Mr. Brown did not tell me."

"Where has Mr. Brown gone?" Sonia inquired once more.

"He's in the company of President Fuller."

"Please give me your cell phone. No, you call Mr. Brown and tell him to come over. I need to know what's going on with Toby. I won't be at ease as long as I stay oblivious about his condition." Sonia gave the order.

Then, she realized it was too slow, so she threw the blanket away from herself. "No, I'll have to find him myself."

However, as she did so, she experienced acute dizziness. She fell back on the bed in an instant.

As a result, Rita hurriedly stated, "Please, Miss Reed, calm down. You haven't eaten anything since yesterday. The doctor cleaned your lung and airway, so your body is still recovering. As a result, you're unable to travel. You should get some rest. I'll contact Mr. Brown."

Sonia also realized her body was weak, so she stopped pushing herself. "You call him, then," she said while waving her hand.


"Okay. I'll do it right now." Rita then took out her cell phone and dialed Tom's number.

When he found out Sonia was awake, he promised to visit her soon. Then, he inquired about her situation and calmly hung up the phone.

"Miss Reed, Mr. Brown will be here shortly."

"Okay." Sonia nodded.

Rita took a seat next to her. "Miss Reed, the person who ignited the fire has been apprehended by the police."

Sonia sharply raised her head when she heard that. "What did you say? Was the perpetrator apprehended?"

"That's right," Rita answered as she nodded.

"Who was it?" Sonia clenched her teeth, hating the perpetrator with a vengeance.

Toby would not be suffering if it weren't for that perpetrator!

"It's President Dafoe," Rita said as her gaze fixed on Sonia.

"Is that Asher Dafoe?" Sonia was taken aback when she heard this.

"Yes."

"That's him!"

Sonia tightened her fist as her cheeks heated with rage. "Yes, I should've considered that sooner. Asher gave me a spiteful look during our meeting yesterday. I expected him to set a trap for me during the meeting, but he didn't do anything until the end, so I laid down my guard!"

At that moment, she regretted, blamed herself, and felt guilty at the same time. All kinds of emotions tried to overwhelm her. The perpetrator was going after me, not Toby. That means I dragged Toby down.

She was heartbroken and despised Asher. "Is he in police custody?" She fisted her hand.

"Yes," Rita responded with a nod.

"How come the cops found him so soon this time?" Sonia inquired once more.

At that, Rita shook her head. "I'm not sure about that, but Mr. Brown should. You can ask him later."

Sonia grunted, indicating that she understood.

Rita continued, "Miss Reed, President Dafoe was arrested at the company's entry. Thus, this has an impact on our business. Do you want to make a statement?"

Sonia nodded. "Assume Asher Dafoe got drunk and set fire to a factory. Don't reveal the particular reason, or it would be tricky."

If the public learned that Asher intended to burn Sonia to death because he was unhappy with her, it would have a terrible impact on Paradigm.

The public image of Paradigm's executive would deteriorate, and people would loathe Paradigm, particularly the government. It was not appropriate for the company.

"Don't be concerned, Miss Reed. I see what you're saying. Mr. Brown suppressed the news last night because he was afraid the public would find out about you and President Fuller's injuries. The general public is still unaware of what had occurred," Rita stated as she picked up her phone.

"That's great," Sonia whispered.

Soon, Paradigm's statement was distributed.

Netizens following the story were surprised to learn that Asher had been drinking and burned down a factory.

"Hey, are rich people this insane?"
