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

Chapter 415 One Chance

Sonia nodded, a little surprised by Toby’s argument. “It makes sense if you put it that way.”

“Just wait and see. Titus will agree to their terms in no time,” Toby insisted with a thin smile.

She did not say anything else and waited quietly. Sure enough, it was just like he had said—Titus conceded to Hal’s demand for a million in compensation toward the end of their heated exchange.

As things were, Titus’ hands were tied. He couldn’t very well risk Hal and Greta humiliating the Gray Family by making a scene at Triforce Enterprise and the Gray Residence.

Hal and Greta’s beady eyes were twinkling with greed. Titus bridled and shot them a baleful look, but he whipped out his checkbook and pen from his pocket nevertheless. He scribbled the one million sum on the check and tore it before he begrudgingly handed it to Hal and Greta. “Take the money and get out of my sight! I don’t ever want to see the both of you in Seafield ever again, much less bother Rina! If you so much as show your faces around these parts, I have a thousand and one ways to make you regret it. You’re more than welcome to try your luck!”

“Don’t worry about it. Consider us as good as gone!” Hal and Greta clutched the check happily as they promised this while nodding earnestly.

They were no fools, after all; they knew how hard it could be to deal with these rich folks, and to manipulate them into surrendering a small part of their fortune was no easy feat, nor was it one to be repeated. Peasants like them could never beat the blue bloods—something that Hal and Greta were more than aware of.

That being said, getting a million out of Titus this time proved easier than they had thought and they couldn’t help wishing they had asked for double the price instead.

“What are you still doing here?” Titus growled, his face stormy as he glowered at the gleeful couple.

“We’re leaving right now!” Hal and Greta kept the check and fled the testing facility, leaving a cloud of dust in their wake.

Rina saw how incensed Titus was and she reached out to tug on his sleeve. “Dad, I’m sorry that you had to pay a million because of me. It’s all my fault.”

“It’s fine. You’re worth every penny. Anyway, we should be heading home.” He consoled her on the shoulder to ease her guilt, thereafter leading her and Julia out of the facility.

When they were waiting for the elevator, Julia glanced at Titus in askance. “Honey, are we just going to let Sonia get away with this?”
