This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1063 Trust Me, Alright?

Toby’s expression instantly turned thunderous and he seemed to be a second away from flaring up anytime soon. Everyone present could not help but feel their hearts skip a beat.

Had Charles not mentioned this incident, then Toby would have been blissfully unaware of everything. Of course, Toby had no doubts that Charles was telling the truth. After all, he could just easily investigate the matter to verify if he wanted to.

On the other hand, Charles would be unbothered with Toby investigating it since he was telling the truth anyway.

Toby had assumed that his mentor and Lynette had a drastic change in their conduct over the past few years. In actuality, they had been adopting that poor conduct since eight years ago! No, perhaps they haven’t changed in their ways and it’s likely that they’ve been behaving this way their whole life; they were just yet to show their true colors before me. That was why he had been unaware of all this. In reality, they were just a bunch of ugly beings beneath their facade.

“I’m sorry.” Toby reached out to tug Sonia’s hand. “I knew that Harry was unfair and overprotective, but I didn’t expect him to behave so abominably in such a manner by taking advantage of my identity.”

Sonia lowered her head and remained silent.

Charles pointed at Toby. “Sonny, look at him. He admitted that Mr. Lore’s an overprotective jack, so if Toby insists on pursuing this matter and seeking revenge from that man’s granddaughter, then it would be impossible for that old fogey to agree to that. He would surely bring up his identity as Toby’s mentor to command him to stop pursuing the matter. I reckon Lynette must also know that her grandfather would stand up for her, that’s why she’s so fearless.”

“I do agree with Charles on that.” Sonia touched her cheeks and continued, “It’s because Miss Lore knows that her grandfather dotes on her and he would forsake his identity to do anything for her. That’s why she’s so reckless in her ways. Even for this incident this time, I believe that ultimately, your mentor would stand up for Miss Lore and request personally for you to forgive her. You—”

“I won’t forgive her,” Toby responded at once.

Though she was quite happy to hear that, she felt slightly apprehensive too. “What if Mr. Lore insists that you forgive her? You should remember that he’s your mentor and he has your respect. If he makes a demand as your mentor and requests that you let her granddaughter off the hook, and you reject him, aren’t you worried that he will reveal to the public that you’re a disrespectful and ungrateful student?”

Toby glanced at her and revealed a confident smile. “No, he won’t do that. The current two generations of the Lore Family are pretty much worthless, so none of them can stand on their own feet. That’s why the Lores are reliant on me for support to maintain their current status and lavish lives. If they sever ties with me, then judging by the capabilities of those worthless Lore youngsters, their family would cease to exist in the upper echelons of society in no time at all. Although Harry is quite lax with the upbringing of his younger generations, he’s not in denial of their faults, so he would never threaten me this way.”
