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

She told Rose that she no longer loved him because that was the truth. At that moment, Toby felt a sharp and distinct ache in his heart, followed by a hollow sensation in his chest. He felt as if someone had taken something important away from him right then. Rose caught sight of his rather pale expression from the corner of her eye, and she shook her head as she let out a sigh. “I thought that I could do something to bring you two back together if you still had feelings for Toby, but… Ah, I guess this isn’t all bad.”

The married couple’s relationship used to be distant and cold in the past because Toby didn’t have feelings for Sonia back then. Now, Sonia’s the one who doesn’t have feelings for Toby. History would repeat itself if they got back together now, Rose thought. “I appreciate your thoughtfulness, Grandma. But I know that things between President Fuller and me will never work out,” Sonia uttered as she held onto the old woman’s hand.

“I’m sorry for disappointing you, Grandma.” “What are you talking about, you silly girl? I’d rather see you happy than force you to be together with Toby. Look at your petite little face! You look so energetic nowadays. You used to look so worn out in the past—you didn’t even look like a young woman in your twenties back then. I think you’re doing a lot better now.” Rose cackled at the end of her sentence. Sonia laughed along with Rose—the tension and worry in Sonia’s heart disappeared when she saw that Rose didn’t blame her for anything.

A while later, she pulled out the necklace that had been lying under her shirt—she recalled something that she had wanted to do. “I forgot to mention that I paid a visit to the old house recently, Grandma. I found a necklace there. Look—is this the necklace you were talking about?” A necklace? 

Toby’s eyes narrowed when he overheard their conversation from the balcony. What necklace? Rose lifted Sonia’s necklace and took a look at it. “I’m not sure if this is the right one. Your dad was in a rush back then; he didn’t tell me what the necklace looked like specifically. I’m not too sure either.” “This was the only necklace I found in the house. There weren’t any other necklaces,” Sonia said as she lowered the pendant onto her chest.

the right one, then,” Rose replied with a nod. Sonia bit on her lower lip before she spoke. “This necklace looks really similar to the one that Julia wears around her neck. I went to the store and asked about it—they said that our necklaces were made as a pair for both mother and daughter. Julia’s necklace is the mother’s one, while the one I’m holding onto is the daughter’s necklace. I just don’t understand why Tina’s necklace would show up in my

glance at the necklace. “So the Gray Family has more than one daughter, huh. Why haven’t I ever heard them talking about their eldest daughter?” “Their eldest daughter died at a very young age,” Toby said as he pushed the door to let himself back into the room. Sonia widened her eyes in shock. “She died?” Rose nodded. “Yeah.” “Well, what’s this necklace

But I have to say, I hadn’t expected the necklace that your father was talking about to belong to the Grays.” “Thank you, Grandma.” Tears of joy welled up in Sonia’s eyes. She had been worried that the old lady would refuse to tell her about it. Toby felt his insides twisting when he saw Sonia’s tears, and he immediately reached into his
