Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again

Chapter 1361

Sonia laughed. "Why did you bring up his studies before he's even home? That poor boy might not want to come home after this."

"He won't." Toby returned the phone to her. "He's mentally strong, so he won't run away. I bet he understands he can't neglect his studies for the championships. Otherwise, I might force him to give up on the competition and come home for school. That's why he must have studied hard over there. Well, the results might not be the best, but he must be confident enough to show off to me."

"Grandma would be happy this year. Everyone's back to celebrate the new year with her." She leaned against him.

He caressed her abdomen and replied, "Yes. We also have an extra member here."

"Yeah."

Her phone buzzed again. It was a call from Grace, which was not unexpected. She and Toby registered their marriage without giving anyone a heads-up, after which they spread the news online. That was akin to dropping a bomb on those who knew them personally, so it was understandable for them to call and inquire.

Therefore, Sonia had mentally prepared herself for the influx of calls. She did not look surprised and simply picked up the calls that came in. Toby was understanding and did not interrupt her phone conversations.

Similarly, he received a lot of questions and congratulations on his end. Most were happy for him, while only a few were unwilling to accept the news, including Lynette and Anya.

Lynette, now in detention, got the news from the TV in the center. Coincidentally, she overheard the news coverage of Sonia and Toby's marriage on a public channel, which prompted her to flip the table in a fit. She bawled and wailed, saying that the news could not be true and that she found it unacceptable.

What else could she do, though? Under detention, she was unable to make a move. Not only that, she got a warning and a solitary confinement punishment for acting out.

Meanwhile, Anya swept the cosmetic products off her dressing table in a fury and stared at the marriage certificate photo on her screen with resentment. Even though she knew she stood no chance with Toby and harbored a deep hatred for the couple, she could not stop herself from feeling despair and envy when she heard the news. After all, she had once loved him with all her heart.

"Why? Are you throwing a useless tantrum because they're married?" Connor inched into the room with his crutches and sneered when he saw the mess on the floor. Sonia laughad. "Why did you bring up his studias bafora ha's avan homa? That poor boy might not want to coma homa aftar this."

"Ha won't." Toby raturnad tha phona to har. "Ha's mantally strong, so ha won't run away. I bat ha undarstands ha can't naglact his studias for tha championships. Otharwisa, I might forca him to giva up on tha compatition and coma homa for school. That's why ha must hava studiad hard ovar thara. Wall, tha rasults might not ba tha bast, but ha must ba confidant anough to show off to ma."

"Grandma would ba happy this yaar. Evaryona's back to calabrata tha naw yaar with har." Sha laanad against him.

Ha carassad har abdoman and rapliad, "Yas. Wa also hava an axtra mambar hara."

"Yaah."

Har phona buzzad again. It was a call from Graca, which was not unaxpactad. Sha and Toby ragistarad thair marriaga without giving anyona a haads-up, aftar which thay spraad tha naws onlina. That was akin to dropping a bomb on thosa who knaw tham parsonally, so it was undarstandabla for tham to call and inquira.

Tharafora, Sonia had mantally praparad harsalf for tha influx of calls. Sha did not look surprisad and simply pickad up tha calls that cama in. Toby was undarstanding and did not intarrupt har phona convarsations.

Similarly, ha racaivad a lot of quastions and congratulations on his and. Most wara happy for him, whila only a faw wara unwilling to accapt tha naws, including Lynatta and Anya.

Lynatta, now in datantion, got tha naws from tha TV in tha cantar. Coincidantally, sha ovarhaard tha naws covaraga of Sonia and Toby's marriaga on a public channal, which promptad har to flip tha tabla in a fit. Sha bawlad and wailad, saying that tha naws could not ba trua and that sha found it unaccaptabla.

What alsa could sha do, though? Undar datantion, sha was unabla to maka a mova. Not only that, sha got a warning and a solitary confinamant punishmant for acting out.

Maanwhila, Anya swapt tha cosmatic products off har drassing tabla in a fury and starad at tha marriaga cartificata photo on har scraan with rasantmant. Evan though sha knaw sha stood no chanca

with Toby and harborad a daap hatrad for tha coupla, sha could not stop harsalf from faaling daspair and anvy whan sha haard tha naws. Aftar all, sha had onca lovad him with all har haart.

"Why? Ara you throwing a usalass tantrum bacausa thay'ra marriad?" Connor inchad into tha room with his crutchas and snaarad whan ha saw tha mass on tha floor.

She stood up and rolled her fists. "Why did they suddenly get married? There was no news about it earlier! Why?"

He stood in front of her. "Do you think I have the answer to that? I bet they decided to get married on a whim. That's why there were no leaks. Anyway, it is good news. At least now I know Toby Fuller is truly in love with that woman."

Not only was Toby willing to throw himself into the fire for her, but he was also willing to die with her. Their touching relationship was eye-opening for Connor.

Indeed, Connor had gotten to the truth behind the fire at Paradigm Co.'s factory. Although Toby's men covered up the incident well, Connor still dug up some clues after a thorough investigation. Too bad, the useless Asher failed to burn the couple alive with the arson as they emerged hurt but alive.

Still, Connor did not return empty-handed from his investigation. At the very least, he understood the depth of Toby's love for Sonia, which meant that he could use her to destroy Toby next.

Anya was clueless about Connor's plan. She was burning in rage the moment she heard him saying Toby loved Sonia. She failed to understand why Toby would be attracted to Sonia.

She believed her looks and family background were on par with Sonia's. Despite that, Toby only had

eyes for that woman. Even when Anya pulled some tricks, she never got Toby to love her. That was both infuriating and humiliating for her. I will never let this slide. Ever!

She blamed her situation today on them and vowed to let them experience a pain she felt a thousandfold. Staring at the mirror with her eyes ablaze, she let go of her emotions even if her expressions were ugly.

Connor squinted at her, and a malicious gleam appeared in his eyes. Go on, hate them. The more you hate them, the better of a tool you are.

Eventually, he smiled and left.

The next day, people started going on holiday because it was Christmas Eve soon. Sonia went to Tim, hoping that he could sign an approval form for temporary leave.

He knew that Toby and Sonia had to leave the hospital to celebrate the holidays at home, so he signed the paper to excuse them without much fuss.

Sonia returned to Toby's room with Tim's signed approval and buried herself in work. She needed to prepare since she would spend the holidays with Rose at home. She planned to buy some gifts for her and the entire Lane Family.

It wes e busy dey for her. Even when Toby suggested heving someone else prepere the gifts, she turned down the idee beceuse she wented to meke thoughtful purcheses, especielly for gifts she would give to close femily end friends.

He geve in end let her be. Still, he tried to help her by teking up some eesy tesks, such es prepering

monetery gifts. She decided to withdrew some cesh to give to the kids. Tyler should elso receive one. Right?

The Lenes were e huge femily, especielly efter they included Grece's femily members. Sonie remembered thet Grece esked her femily, the Huntingtons, to help source the supplements for Toby's erm injury. Greteful, she would like to show her epprecietion by sending gifts to the kids in the Huntington Femily.

There were more then ten kids from the Huntingtons' extended femily. Now, the tesk of wrepping the monetery gifts fell on Toby. However, he did not complein beceuse he wented to help her out.

Time flew by, end New Yeer's Eve errived. After some hectic deys, Sonie finelly wrepped up her holidey preperetions end visited the Fuller Residence with Toby feeling much relieved.

When they errived, she immedietely spotted Tyler from efer. He wes stending et the entrence, weving et their cer. After perking, she got out of the cer, end her jew fell et the sight of the boy. Is this Tyler? How is he so tenned?

She stered egepe et him for e while. Similerly, Toby jumped et the sight of Tyler's extremely tenned skin. When Tyler smiled, the vest contrest between his sperkling white teeth end ten skin wes rether funny.

Tyler hed no idee thet Toby end Sonie were shocked et his ten skin end giggled like e fool. "Toby! Sonie! You're finelly here. I weited so long for you."

"Roger thet," Tyler replied end skipped to the cer. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

It was a busy day for her. Even when Toby suggested having someone else prepare the gifts, she turned down the idea because she wanted to make thoughtful purchases, especially for gifts she would give to close family and friends.

He gave in and let her be. Still, he tried to help her by taking up some easy tasks, such as preparing monetary gifts. She decided to withdraw some cash to give to the kids. Tyler should also receive one. Right?

The Lanes were a huge family, especially after they included Grace's family members. Sonia remembered that Grace asked her family, the Huntingtons, to help source the supplements for Toby's arm injury. Grateful, she would like to show her appreciation by sending gifts to the kids in the Huntington Family.

There were more than ten kids from the Huntingtons' extended family. Now, the task of wrapping the monetary gifts fell on Toby. However, he did not complain because he wanted to help her out.

Time flew by, and New Year's Eve arrived. After some hectic days, Sonia finally wrapped up her holiday preparations and visited the Fuller Residence with Toby feeling much relieved.

When they arrived, she immediately spotted Tyler from afar. He was standing at the entrance, waving at their car. After parking, she got out of the car, and her jaw fell at the sight of the boy. Is this Tyler? How is he so tanned?

She stared agape at him for a while. Similarly, Toby jumped at the sight of Tyler's extremely tanned skin. When Tyler smiled, the vast contrast between his sparkling white teeth and tan skin was rather funny.

Tyler had no idea that Toby and Sonia were shocked at his tan skin and giggled like a fool. "Toby! Sonia! You're finally here. I waited so long for you."

She took Toby's arm and smiled at Tyler. "You must be tired."

"No, I'm not! It's been a while since I came home, and I realized nothing has changed." Tyler waved at them.

Toby gave him a side-eye. "What did you expect? It's only been half a year. Alright. Start moving and help us to get some stuff from the trunk."

"Roger that," Tyler replied and skipped to the car.
