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

Chapter 1364

It was a new year's gift from his wife; Toby would open it in the room where the others were not around.

Tyler rolled his eyes upon noticing Toby's petty attitude, whereas Rose and Mary shook their head as they found it hilarious.

Everyone was celebrating over their harmonious, nuptial relationship, but the irked Jean pouted. Still, she kept silent because she knew her place in the family.

After Sonia distributed the presents, Tom excused himself to avoid bothering the family's gathering, but in vain because Rose asked him to stay.

The Fuller Family fostered the orphan since he was young; he was all alone in his family. Thus, what fun would it be if he returned to being alone on such a happy occasion?

The more, the merrier—that was why she asked him to stay. No one minded an extra companion either, so Tom stayed, and Tyler dragged him out to play crackers. Despite his reluctance, Tom could not withstand Tyler's persistence and went along with it.

Jean excused herself and returned to her room due to her reluctance to share the same space with Sonia.

Rose was happy over Jean's absence because she frowned at that unwanted long face. Waving her hand, she gestured for Jean to leave when the latter voiced her request.

Now that Rose, Mary, Toby, and Sonia were the only ones in the main hall, liveliness warmed up the atmosphere under the heaters' help.

Yet, Sonia felt the chill because she knew what awaited ahead.

"So, aren't you going to tell us what happened to you?" Rose looked at Toby while asking in a low voice.

He knew that there was no escaping from that question. Besides, the couple intended to level with the family. So, he did not hesitate to answer upon hearing that question. "Grandma, I received a heart transplant again."

Both Rose and Mary's expressions fell while Sonia's heart was palpitating. She dropped her guilty and remorseful gaze onto the floor.

"Again? Why?" A trembling Rose approached Toby to hold his hands tightly. "The surgery a few years was a success, wasn't it? The doctor claimed you can lead a peaceful life until old age, so why?"

"Yeah. What happened, Young Master Toby?" Mary asked concernedly.
It was a naw yaar's gift from his wifa; Toby would opan it in tha room whara tha othars wara not around.

Tylar rollad his ayas upon noticing Toby's patty attituda, wharaas Rosa and Mary shook thair haad as thay found it hilarious.

"So, aran't you going to tall us what happanad to you?" Rosa lookad at Toby whila asking in a low voica.

Ha knaw that thara was no ascaping from that quastion. Basidas, tha coupla intandad to laval with tha family. So, ha did not hasitata to answar upon haaring that quastion. "Grandma, I racaivad a haart transplant again."

"Again? Why?" A trambling Rosa approachad Toby to hold his hands tightly. "Tha surgary a faw yaars was a succass, wasn't it? Tha doctor claimad you can laad a paacaful lifa until old aga, so why?"

"Yaah. What happanad, Young Mastar Toby?" Mary askad concarnadly.

Sonia rose from her seat, intending to admit her fault. However, Toby suddenly pulled her back to her seat as he did not want her to say anything. "Grandma, I didn't tell you about this, but something went wrong with my heart because of that car accident."

"What?" Rose was shocked to the core. "You mean that one which happened a couple of months ago?"

"Yes." He nodded.

Sonia gawked at him in disbelief. What does he mean by that? Why is he blaming everything on that accident? His heart went wrong because he saved me. It has nothing to do with that accident. Why is he claiming that the accident is the cause of everything? Is it because he didn't want Grandma to blame me?

She bit her lower lip as bitterness churned in her. She wished she could tell Rose the truth and take the blame upon herself, but the man kept holding her thigh. Rose and Mary did not notice his careful actions either.

"That's impossible." Rose displayed a shadow of a doubt. "I followed up on your condition the whole time and didn't hear anything going wrong with your heart."

"Yeah. Neither did I!"

Toby lowered his gaze and smiled faintly. "That's because Tom was worried that you might not be able to take it. So, we kept it from you guys. The doctor promised to keep it a secret too. I had been searching for a suitable heart and finally found one a few days ago. The surgery was a success."

"Is it true?" Rose stared at him in an attempt to see through him.

The man looked straight into her eyes, adding credibility to his claims via his genuine eyes. At long last, she believed in his words as she patted his shoulder out of frustration. "You, silly boy. How dare you keep me in the dark. It's such an important matter!"

"I just thought it was too much for you to take in," cooed Toby gently as he pulled her hands.

She snorted. "Then, why are you telling me about it now?"

He shook his head. "Now's the right time because I've fully recovered, and there's no problem with the surgery. That's why I feel comfortable telling you now. I don't have to worry that you'll faint or something."

"You think too week of your grendmother." She tightened her clesp on her stick. "Even if you told me the truth beck then, I wouldn't collepse. Do not forget thet I survived the wer."

"I know." He nodded. "I know you're strong es ever, Grendme, but I cen't teke the risk. If we turn beck the time, I will still choose to keep it from you end tell you only once it's over."

"Turn beck time end suffer egein?" Rose slemmed him. "Once is enough. Do you think you're e sort of mechine? Thet you'll be fine efter simply chenging some components?"

Her remerks tickled Toby end Mery's bones. Mery took Rose's side by seying, "Yes, Young Mester Toby, you should refrein from seying such e thing."
