This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1275 Lynette Got Away

“Melody Stryder?” A hint of a profound expression laced Toby’s face when he heard the name. Sonia, on the other hand, pursed her lips, for the enigmatic expression hadn’t gone unnoticed when she had been observing his reaction to the name in the first place.

I knew it! This dude knows Melody’s out of jail! Or how could he not be surprised at all that Cynthia had met with Melody?!

“I, um…” Toby deliberated his words when he sensed the gaze that she had on him. “Still not saying it, are we?” Sonia smiled enigmatically at him. “When did Melody get out of jail?”

Here we go. Toby sighed and regained his usual composure in two shakes. “Two months after she went in.”

“So soon?!” She frowned. Watching him nod in affirmation, she found it hard to believe what had happened. “Why didn’t you tell me about it?”

“I didn’t want you to get upset. After all, she came out not long after she was finally put behind bars. Anyone would’ve gotten upset. That’s why I hid it from you.” His eyes were drooping.

Meanwhile, Sonia bore into the man, for she knew he had her best interest at heart. However, it still bothered her. Thus, she ignored him for the next two minutes.

Toby, too, knew she would be upset at the fact that he deliberately hid it from her, but he didn’t regret doing so. At that, he wrapped an arm around her gently and cooed, “Please don’t get mad at me. I only found out later too.”

Sonia looked at him in response, and he clarified, “The reason Melody can get out is that her granduncle bailed her out with his life’s merits. Because he got injured in his early years in the war, so he couldn’t have his own children, and Melody treated him the best, so he couldn’t sit back and watch her spend the rest of her life in jail. Hence, he used his merits in exchange for her freedom before he died.”

“That’s the case, huh?” Sonia frowned. “That veteran sure has gotten senile. Does he not know what sort of a character her grandniece is? How can he let a villain out?!”

“He had gotten senile. But then, it’s also not surprising. So many will become injudicious as they get on in years despite being shrewd when they were young, especially when it’s someone old-fashioned and childless. Because he took a liking to Melody, he regarded her as his own grandchild. Hence, he naturally wouldn’t sit back and watch her live the rest of her life in prison.”
