This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 132

Charles’ expression grew abruptly cold, and his icy gaze swept over the other five people in the room before it finally landed on Tina. “The mare Sonia picked out was the tamest of the bunch, and I know this because I deliberately asked the stable attendant about it. Logically speaking, it’s impossible that the horse would go crazy all of a sudden, so I figured something fishy must be going on here.”

“Are you saying that someone did something to President Reed’s horse, President Lane?” Rebecca was quick to catch on as she asked with wide eyes.

 

“It wasn’t me,” Tyler interjected defensively with a shake of his head, waving his hands as though to bat away any accusation or suspicion that might be thrown his way.

Zane was calm as he sipped his tea and quipped, “It wasn’t me, either.”

“Well, it definitely couldn’t have been me,” Rebecca said, raising her hands.

As such, Charles’ gaze fixed on the remaining duo, who had yet to voice their denial. “That just leaves President Fuller and Miss Gray, but seeing as President Fuller went to Sonia’s rescue, I’m sure that he was not the one who pulled the dirty trick. After all, it’s not as if he would purposely start trouble only to solve it himself—no one has the time for that, which means…”

 

“Which means you’re suspecting me,” Tina continued his sentence for him. She dug her nails into her palms and looked so flustered that she might be on the brink of crying.

Charles clapped in a flamboyant display of mockery as he sneered, “It looks like you are perceptive after all. You’re right—I am suspicious of you because out of everyone here, you’re the only one who would most likely go out of her way to hurt Sonia, and you have a track record to prove it.”

 

“I didn’t do anything!” Tina’s tears streamed down her cheeks. She grabbed Toby’s hand and pleaded, “You have to believe me, Toby! I didn’t do it!”

“I believe you,” Toby reassured her and squeezed her hand gently, signaling her to calm down.
