This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 133

Tyler lowered his head, looking as crestfallen as he was stunned.

Meanwhile, Charles scoffed as he glanced over at Toby haughtily. “So, do you still want me to apologize, President Fuller?”

 

The subtext of his question was clear: if he were to be forced to apologize, then he would expose even more startling crimes on Tina’s track record.

Toby understood what was at stake, and he was grim as he returned Charles’ sullen gaze.

Tina, on the other hand, was somewhat terrified as she tugged on Toby’s arm. She forced out a tight smile and said, “Let’s forget about this, Toby. Charles is right; I’ve done so many terrible things to Miss Reed, so it’s only right that we excuse them from making an apology.”

Charles quirked his lips mockingly. “It looks like you guys have given up on an apology from me, so I’m going to take my leave now. The air here reeks of hypocrisy.”

 

As he said this, he flapped his hand in front of his nose as though to fan away some repulsive scent and headed up the stairs.

Seeing this, Rebecca let out a full-body yawn and interjected, “I’m worn out from all the horseback riding. I think I’ll take a nap in my room.”

 

“Well, I’m not staying here if the rest of you are leaving,” Zane concluded as he rose from his seat.

Very soon, Toby and the two others were the only ones remaining in the living room.

Tyler glanced at Toby, then Tina. At last, he grabbed the former by the arm and proceeded to guide him toward the veranda. “Come over here, Toby. I need to talk to you about something.”

When they reached the veranda, Toby drew his arm back and demanded, “What is it?”
