This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1281 Make Nothing of Your Father

Even when Toby kept his back facing her when he asked the question, Lynette knew he was referring to her, and her legs froze instantly, no longer daring to retreat.

Then, the next second, she found Toby turning around with Sonia’s hand in his. “Toby…” The young woman tried to pull a smile and greet him, but when she saw his expressionless face and sub-zero stare, her words got stuck in her throat.

Toby’s looking at me like he’s looking at some dead animal! The notion hurt and scared her worse than being ignored.

At the very least, being ignored meant that Toby just made light of her, but him gazing at her like she was a dead animal meant that he would feel nothing even when she died. In fact, he might be wishing she was dead.

“You sank your nails into her arm, didn’t you?!” Toby reiterated, more like a definite statement rather than a question.

Lynette parted her lips and reflexively wanted to lie and deny the truth. However, Toby bore into her like he could see the deepest part of her soul, making her feel bare naked. “I… I didn’t mean to do it… I just… just—” she stuttered, unable to lie at all.

“Then, what were you about to do just now?” Toby didn’t care about her explanation, nor did he want to hear it, even. The only thing that mattered was if she did it, and whether it was an accident was beside the point. Hence, he interjected very quickly.

Sonia, on the other hand, smirked and quietly watched the scene unfold in his arms, for she knew her beloved was about to get back at Lynette now.

Since he wanted to avenge her, she’d just play the damsel in distress with peace of mind. Also, she had to be honest; it felt really good to have someone defending her, and even greater when it was against her beloved’s admirer.

At that, she took a gander at Lynette and smiled delightfully.

Naturally, the smile aggravated Lynette; in the young woman’s eyes, Sonia was challenging her.
