This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

She was just bitten by a snake that morning, but after she woke up, Toby didn’t even ask her if she was fine, nor did he even look at her. That indifference was, of course, unbearable for her.

Toby sipped some soup. “I do not,” he answered coolly.

That attitude didn’t sit right with Tina, but she bit her lip and forced a smile. “Are you sure? I—”

“Alright, enough. Finish your dinner.” Toby interrupted her impatiently.

Tina started tearing up, but everyone on the other side of the table started laughing silently. She knew they were laughing at her, and her face contorted with rage. However, she couldn’t flare up, and that annoyed her greatly.

Toby finished his dinner a short while later and left the dining room after wiping his mouth elegantly.

On the other hand, Tina was only halfway through her dinner, but since Toby left without waiting for her, she suddenly lost her appetite. Thus, she put her cutlery down and went up to him; she couldn’t eat without him. “Toby!” Tina caught up to him and held his arm, though she was slightly out of breath. “What happened? You’re not like yourself.”

Toby simply pursed his lips and kept his silence.

Tina stared at him with tearful eyes. “Is it because of something I did? Is that why you’re ignoring me? Please, tell me everything. I don’t want you ignoring me.”

Right at that moment, Toby turned around. “Tell me the truth, Tina. You noticed the snake before everyone else this morning, didn’t you? And you startled it so it’d bite Sonia, right?”
