This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1168 Directly Ignored

Jean felt her jealousy and rage bubble up when she saw Toby shielding Sonia behind him in such an overprotective way. She was jealous about the fact that even she, Toby’s own mother, had never been protected like this by him.

And she was angry about the way Toby reacted. Jean hadn’t even done anything to Sonia and yet, Toby already was acting as though Jean was going to lay her hands on Sonia. His distrust for his own mother truly hurt Jean. As she thought about this, her gaze on Toby suddenly turned resentful.

Toby didn’t know what Jean was upset about, and he had a small frown when he asked, “Why did you come to the old manor, Mom? When did you get here?”

“I have only gotten here a while ago,” she grumbled. “I came to see your Grandma. I am leaving now.” “Grandma?” He raised his eyebrows in disbelief.

It wasn’t as though he didn’t know the kind of person Jean was. Even though she wasn’t unfilial, she definitely didn’t like Rose all that much. After all, Rose didn’t like Jean a lot either.

Because of that, Jean wouldn’t usually drop by to pay Rose a visit if she didn’t need to. Why would she voluntarily come anyway if she was going to get nitpicked whenever she came here?

It was obvious that Jean was now here for Rose because of something. However, Toby didn’t pry into it since Jean wasn’t bringing it up herself. “Alright. Be safe on the road.” Holding Sonia’s hand, Toby guided Sonia aside to make way for Jean.

Jean only hummed in reply before she lowered her head and walked past the couple. Right from the start, Jean hadn’t spared Sonia even one glance—it was as though she thought Sonia wouldn’t notice.

Indeed, she did this intentionally. Jean might have promised Rose that she wouldn’t go against Sonia anymore and she wouldn’t treat her badly, but Jean didn’t say that she would pretend like she was fine with Sonia when they met.

No matter what, Toby’s stepmother was still his mother and elder. As long as she didn’t go against Sonia or give her an attitude, Jean simply ignoring Sonia couldn’t count as her trying to pick a fight with the younger woman.

It wasn’t like they could point out Jean’s mistake and tell her that she was wrong. After all, the women had never gotten along in the first place. Them ignoring each other was probably the best way they could coexist without getting into fights.

Furthermore, Sonia would be the one who was narrow-minded and petty if she was mad at Jean for ignoring her. The only person they could blame then was Sonia. That’s right. Sonia is the one to blame.
