Chapter 160,Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again!

I see. So that’s what happened, Toby thought as he pressed his lips together. He knew that Henry kidnapped Rina in the past, but he had no idea that Titus was the one who forced Henry into it. It seems like I have to be more thorough when I’m investigating a particular matter; all these illusions might blind my eyes from the truth otherwise. Titus’s expression had been filled with hatred when he last spoke to me about Henry, but I just find that hilarious right now. I can’t believe I completely fell for Titus’s narrative when he told me that Henry had wronged the Gray Family. At that thought, Toby shifted his gaze toward Sonia. His eyes were filled with remorse and guilt. He felt sorry because he concluded that Sonia’s father was a bad man after listening to one side of the story. Meanwhile, Sonia didn’t have the time to look at Toby’s reaction. She simply lowered her head to hold onto the necklace.

“That’s why this necklace was in the Reed Residence,” she muttered. She figured that her father must have removed this necklace from Rina when he first kidnapped her. “That’s right,” Rose said with a nod. “How did Rina die in the end?” Sonia asked. She had a bold guess in her mind, but it was a guess that she didn’t wish to make. Rose studied Sonia’s expression for a while before she slowly parted her lips to speak.

“Your father drowned her in the river, right in front of Titus and Julia’s eyes.” Sonia’s guess was right, but the revelation was still a bombshell to her. Her vision turned black as she felt the world around her spinning. She felt herself falling as her stance grew unsteady. Upon seeing that, Toby held her by her shoulders before he pressed her close to his chest. “Are you okay?” “I’m fine.” Sonia bit her lower lip as she replied to him in a weak voice.

At the same time, Rose eyed the younger woman concernedly. “You should sit down,” she suggested. Thus, Toby helped Sonia to the couch, where she sat with her limbs trembling. “H-How could Dad… do such an idiotic thing?” Sonia couldn’t believe that her father had drowned a young child. It explained why Titus had been so cruel to her father six years ago, for Titus was also avenging his daughter’s death.

“That’s right. Your father was silly to have done that. However, his actions were understandable—Titus had forced him into a corner, and it’s easier for one to do stupid things when they are feeling impulsive.” Rose stroked Sonia’s hair sympathetically. Sonia squeezed her eyes shut. “He was way too impulsive.” “Don’t you guys think that there’s something odd about this whole story?” Toby spoke up all of a sudden. “What is it?”

 

Sonia raised her head. “If your father drowned Rina right in front of Titus and Julia’s eyes, why didn’t he end up in jail? Judging by how unforgiving and vindictive Titus is, he’d never let your father and Paradigm Co. get off so easily. Yet, that was what he did. Titus didn’t get the law involved after what your father did, and he even allowed your father to continue expanding Paradigm Co. Titus only launched his attack on your father and the company six years ago,” he said.

Sonia seemed to realize something at that point. “That’s true. Why is that so? Do you know the answer, Grandma?” Sonia turned to look at the old woman. Rose shook her head. “I’m not too sure about this either. I’m guessing that your father and Titus had some sort of agreement back then. There’s no other way to explain it.” “I guess so. One way or another, the hatred between the Gray and Reed Families is absolutely irreconcilable,” Sonia muttered as she bit her bottom lip.

 

since Sonia’s father was dead, but that didn’t mean that things were settled between Paradigm Co. and Titus. I’m going to get even with him! Sonia thought. Toby felt the urge to get rid of the hatred that

Sonia repeated her question when Toby didn’t respond to her the first time. Rose hastily replied on behalf of him. “Of course not. I’d never support it if Toby were to stand on the Gray Family’s side.” “I’d like to hear him
