Chapter 254 A Strange Encounter,Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again!

With that in mind, Toby fished out his phone and called Sonia’s number only to hear a cold automated voice answer in her stead, monotonously informing him that her phone had been switched off. Tom heard it as well and cleared his throat. “Well, that shouldn’t stop you, President Fuller. Why don’t you look for her and explain things to her in person?” Toby’s eyes glimmered at this, and for a brief second, he almost took Tom’s advice. But the next moment, he shook his head and said, “No. I want to go over to the Gray Residence and personally expose Tina for putting on an act all these years.” “Yes, sir. I’ll bring the car around immediately,” Tom said with renewed fervor as he adjusted his glasses and left to get the car ready.

 

Meanwhile, Toby clicked into his phone gallery and found the two pictures of Sonia that the boutique assistant had taken previously. His eyes were dark with a gentle longing as he muttered to himself, “Six years we were married. Why didn’t you ever tell me that you were my pen pal?” If she had only given him some kind of clue that would make him realize she was Maple, then he never would have treated her the way he had! He was pulled from his thoughts when his phone vibrated with a new message. He glanced at his screen and saw that Tom had sent him a text, which read, ‘President Fuller, I’ve brought the car around for you. I’ll be waiting at the main entrance of the company.’

Toby locked his phone without replying and shoved it into his pocket, then marched out of the office. On the way to the Gray Residence, the sky seemed to break with a sudden torrential downpour, which was swiftly followed by fog that blurred the road ahead. Tom was carefully maneuvering the car as he mumbled, “President Fuller, have you noticed how odd the weather has been for the past few days? The forecast said that it would be sunny, but the rain has proved relentless nowadays, not to mention the thunderstorm last night. Apparently, floods and earthquakes have been happening in certain regions as well.” “I don’t see what’s odd about that. Those things happen every year,” Toby remarked plainly as he stared at Sonia’s photo, his thumb caressing her face over the phone screen. Tom chuckled dryly.

Tom saw this, too, and though he honked several times to signal the person to move away, it was to no avail. “What’s wrong with him?” Tom frowned and grumbled sullenly, “Does he have a death wish or something?

the hell did that person come from? More to the point, why is he blocking our way? There’s no telling if he’s good or bad, so it’s too dangerous for President Fuller

to see for myself what this man is up to! Tom knew that there was no dissuading Toby when he had already made up his mind. Sighing, he opened up the storage compartment in the car and carefully drew out a pistol, then assembled its parts while nodding as he said, “Roger that, sir. I’ll keep an eye on him.” Toby hummed curtly in response and opened the car door, then took out an umbrella from the side before walking toward the middle of the road. He stopped in front of the man, who slowly lifted the edge of the black umbrella

Toby narrowed his eyes suspiciously. “What are you talking about?” The man sighed like he was already growing tired of their exchange. “Do you really have to go and expose Tina for pretending to be Maple?
